How to Hunt Deer - A Habitat Consultant's Take on Public & Private Land Sep 28, 2023

Show notes

It's no secret. Hunting on relatively lightly pressured, manicured private land is very different than hunting the highly pressured public piece down the road. But is one really better than the other? Both have their advantages and disadvantages, and both can afford you a great time chasing whitetails!

In this episode of the How to Hunt Deer Podcast, Josh talks with Greg Kazmierski of Whitetail Partners about Greg's take on hunting public vs private land. Greg is a Habitat Consultant with Whitetail Partners. As a Habitat Consultant, Greg spends time working with landowners helping them improve their property and their hunting. But each year, Greg stretches his legs for public land whitetails in multiple states. So which is better? In this episode, the guys discuss the strengths and weaknesses of both and how hunting BOTH types can make you a better all around deer hunter. Enjoy!

Antler Up - Be Prepared, Adapt & Attack w/ Steve Sherk Sep 27, 2023

Show notes

Hey everyone, welcome to episode 192 of the Antler Up Podcast!

On this week's episode I was joined by PA native Steve Sherk Jr. to kick off the PA state wide opener week! This is the second year in a row that Steve has kicked off the season for us. If you are like me, when Steve speaks you have to listen! He is one of the best out there when it comes to providing helpful information and has year after year success in the PA woods. This was a really fun episode to record because we discussed some plans for this upcoming season, Steve’s ability to adapt to hunting pressure, potential outlook for the 2023 season, timing your hunts and a whole lot more!

We begin this episode by hearing Steve share what he is doing to finalize things for this upcoming season with more prep work with cameras. Steve discusses what hunting means to him and the impact it has made on his life. Following this up Steve has been able to adapt to the hunting pressure. With more great information out there Steve has changed some of his strategies to better his odds on a PA mature buck. With the low kill numbers, mild winter Steve believes in his area this upcoming year can be a good one. We dive into food options, his 3 C’s and his top 3 rules when it comes to hunting those big ole cautious bucks! I greatly appreciate Steve for all that he has done and is doing for the hunting community and can’t wait to see his success and get a chance to catch up with him again! Be sure to check out his Mountain Buck University YouTube channel and his Sherk’s Guide Service! Enjoy this fun episode and see you next week!

Thanks again for all the support and best of luck out there and Antler Up!

Wisconsin Sportsman - Elevating Conversations Around Hunting Culture and Conservation Sep 26, 2023

Show notes

As an outdoorsman, why do you do what you do? Why do you care about the things you care about? Better yet, why should anyone else care about what you care about? Is the outdoor lifestyle, and all its accoutrements, one that's worth preserving, promoting, and even passing on? These questions, at their core, are worth wrestling with, and they inform the conversation on this week's episode of the Wisconsin Sportsman Podcast.

In this episode of the Wisconsin Sportsman Podcast, Josh & Pierce talk with Robert Rosenberger about the intersection between mentorship, hunting, and conservation. Robert, with decades of experience engrossed in Wisconsin's outdoor culture, is a wealth of knowledge, wisdom gained by experience, and to top it all off, he's a salt of the earth kind of guy. This is very likely the richest and most profound episode of the Wisconsin Sportsman so far. We hope you enjoy!

Oklahoma Outdoors - Pre Season BS Session with Charles Admire Sep 25, 2023

Show notes

This week on the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast we are excited to announce that hunting season is here! John's long time friend Charles Admire joins him on the show to talk about all the fun adventures that await for the fall of 2023. The guys talk about their whitetail seasons and a few other fun hunts that Charles is looking forward to like New Mexico mule deer and west Texas sandhill crane. The guys also discuss their re-emerged love of waterfowl hunting and share a few stories from last season that have really fueled the fire for the upcoming fall.

Both fellas share some of their muzzleloader failures and what they learned from them, and give some warnings to folks who are new to black powder. While the guys talk whitetails, John admits he may have to eat his words as his top target buck has been daylighting a lot leading up to the archery opener this coming weekend. John often warns against being overly excited for opening day, but when a target buck is showing himself, it may just be time to go all in!
