Skip details the specifics on locations he hunts and how to improve a property for better bulletproof setups.
Skip discusses entry and exit, and when it is too risky to hunt certain areas. Skip explains the basics, but essentials, to getting into a hunting area. Skip explains how he has made consistent access points that relate to his daily chores and other work on the farm. Skip discusses the features he creates or natural topographies to his hunting location that he uses during his hunts.
Skip explains his specific farm and how neighboring pressure can disrupt plans to hunt a specific deer. Jon explains his tactics on a particular deer and how he decides to go after a mature buck. Skip details how he plans on hunting a mature buck in mid-October and why he shifts his odds with multiple setups. Skip explains how to shrink a deer’s core range and make landscape improvements to ensure hunting becomes easier.
Skip and Jon discuss introducing children to hunting, teaching success in different ways to our kids, and giving youth the chance to make their own way in the woods. Skip explains why children do not fully appreciate large antlered deer and his goals with his own son. Skip ends with when he is hunting and how he plans on killing a 7.5-year-old mature buck.
Jon and Skip both talk about success stories this season so far and what we can do as hunters to continue to perpetuate success in our communities.
