How to Hunt Deer - Using Trail Cams to Locate and Hunt Mature Bucks with Reese Johnson Jul 14, 2022

Show notes

Fall archery openers are right around the corner. Do you have a bead on the caliber of deer you’re after yet? Trail camera intel can be hit or miss, and can leave you scratching your head, wondering where the bucks might be. But have you really put much thought into your trail camera strategy? Why do you have your cameras where you have them? What intel are you hoping to see? Once you get a picture of a buck, how do you adapt to close the net on his whereabouts?

In this episode of the How to Hunt Deer podcast, Josh talks with Reese Johnson of Kentucky about Reese’s trail camera strategy. Reese runs nearly 150 different trail cameras, so it’s safe to say he knows a thing or two about best practices and capitalizing on trail camera intel. Tune in to hear how Reese uses his trail cameras to locate bucks, build a game plan, and eventually move in for the kill.

Ohio Outdoors - KillDeer Plains Wildlife Area and the Ohio Deer Herd Jul 13, 2022

Show notes

This week the guys are joined by a few of the brightest whitetail deer experts in the state of Ohio. Mike Tonkovich, Bob Ford, and Clint Mccoy discuss the state of the deer herd in Ohio, especially focusing in on Killdeer Plains Wildlife area. The guys have a great discussion of everything from how deer herds are counted to what needs to happen to the whitetail deer population to remain stable.

Paul and Andrew took a trip down 71 last weekend to visit our friends at GoWild during the first ever Send it Slam! What an awesome trip and experience. Hats off to everybody at GoWild for putting on a slamming first event. The highlight of the trip goes to Paul, and his ringer bow shooting abilities. Pauls’ shot on an Elk at 130 yards, put him into a drawing for a new bow, and the lucky SOB won! The music, festivities, and shooting were an awesome event for the whole family! On to Archery Hike next weekend!

Average Conservationist - A Dream Hunt with Clint Salisbury Jul 13, 2022

Show notes

Joining Marcus on the podcast this week is Clint Salisbury. Clint is the Regional Director in Michigan for the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation. The guys kick things off talking about Clint's path that brought him to RMEF and why he always looked at this type of position as a dream job. From there, they spend the rest of the conversation discussing elk in Michigan. Clint gives a good history on the elk herd and how conservation work has been able to restore it to the healthiest that it has been in sometime, if not ever. Drawing an elk tag in Michigan is something most will never get to experience given that only roughly 300 tags are given out each year depending on herd numbers. However, in recent years, those hunters have posted an 80% success rate and with that a part of history in Michigan. Harvesting an elk in Michigan for most is a dream hunt and with the tireless work that volunteers are doing hopefully more get that chance to fulfill that dream.

Oklahoma Outdoors - Babies, Weddings, and Turkeys Jul 11, 2022

Show notes

BABY IN THE HOUSE!!! John and his wife welcomed their little girl into the world last week and all three of them are doing great. Lucky for all you listeners, John prerecorded an episode for you guys beforehand so there is still an Oklahoma Outdoors podcast this week! John will be telling the story of his 2022 spring turkey, and how an out of town wedding turned into a lucky stroke for his turkey hunting.

John stopped by a friends lease on his way to a wedding in west Texas and had only one morning to get it done. With a little OnX scouting and a whole lot of luck, John was able to have one of his best turkey hunts ever. Multiple setups, quick decisions, and a turkey right next to the truck are all a part of this exciting story!
