Wisconsin Sportsman - Selling Real Estate with Al Wisnefski May 17, 2022

Show notes

For many, the question “How do I go about buying hunting land?” is a daily occurrence. Most outdoorsmen and women dream of owning their own little piece of paradise to hunt, fish, and enjoy the great outdoors. But what if you’ve purchased land, and the dream isn’t so dreamy anymore? What if the commute has become too much? What if the property taxes are just more than you want to pay? What if you want to upsize or just find an all around better property? How should you approach selling your land?

In this episode of the Wisconsin Sportsman podcast, Josh is joined by Al Wisnefski of Land & Legacy Group about selling land. Al has been selling property for almost a decade, and he has helped many landowners through the difficult decision to sell their property. While not everyone is looking to sell their land right now, this episode is a great conversation for all those interested in rural real estate. Al shares his entire process from beginning to end. If you’re looking to sell, Al lays out all the things you need to consider as you bring your land to market. If you’re hoping to buy land one day, this conversation will help you know what all is going through the sellers mind. No matter who you are, you’ll learn something from this one!

Whitetail Landscapes - Blending Forest and Deer Management May 17, 2022

Show notes

In this podcast Kenny Kane (Generations Forestry) and Jon Teater (Whitetail Landscapes) discuss the blending of forest management practices and wildlife improvement. Both small and large properties landowners are challenged with managing their properties and balancing optimized deer habitat with sustainable timber management. In this podcast Kenny and Jon breakdown how to process these topics and the contemplated areas we need to assess to get the best prescription possible. Issues related to high graded forest are discussed as many landowners experience the pitfalls with mismanaged timber from the past. Kenny explains the best techniques when you are dealing with cleaning up and restoring areas that are high graded.

Kenny’s process of evaluating forested areas from understanding the concerns to making decisions will help landowners feel empowered to think ahead and begin to build a superb deer hunting property. Jon and Kenny provide rules of thumb and techniques to make informed decisions as landowners undergo the transformation of building their hunting property and deciding what trees to cut or leave. Kenny explains the impacts certain landowners may experience when markets for certain timber are not in demand. Jon provides a recommendation of what to do next when you are trying to understand market demands.

Kenny explains how to balance quality and poor timber situations and how to look toward the future. Jon explains his techniques for timber stand improvement. Kenny provides a major takeaway on how to invest in your property and what species we sometimes overlook when we are thinking about wildlife. Kenny and Jon discuss the benefits of improvement and the short and long term thinking that can get landowners in a better position for the future.

Pennsylvania Woodsman - Removing Predators for Better Turkey and Deer Hunting May 13, 2022

Show notes

As we reach the halfway point of spring turkey season there are generally two separate conversations that emerge. Either the success of a textbook turkey hunt, or a tangent about turkey populations being off. If you find yourself in the latter half, pay attention! This week's episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman we chat with Mike Dreibelbis about his journey into trapping nest raiders and fawn nabbers. Mike found his passion for trapping later in his hunting career and began to hone his craft of targeting coyotes and nuisance predators.

Fur prices continue to fluctuate and the days of making money on a trap line are nearly over. As the quality of habitat increases across the country for better deer and turkey hunting, naturally predator species will respond in a positive way. Unless you're a diehard trapper yourself, it's possible that the increase in predators has an impact on the turkey (or deer) hunting in your neighborhood. Mike's journey of learning to master this art is filled with a ton of knowledge that you may be able to apply in your area. Hopefully this will fire you up to run a trapline this fall for future hunting, or consider inviting a trapper to come and help you out!

How To Hunt Deer - How to Choose the Right Bow Accessories May 12, 2022

Show notes

Choosing the right bow for you is really important. But don’t overlook the accessories! Quality accessories can go a long way in enhancing your bow’s performance and making the entire archery and bowhunting experience more enjoyable. But should you shoot a three pin or single pin sight? Drop-away rest or whisker biscuit? Stabilizer or no stabilizer? And what kind of release should you shoot? The choices can be overwhelming, but this episode of the How to Hunt Deer podcast is all about simplifying the accessory selection puzzle.

In this episode of the How to Hunt Deer podcast, Josh talks with return guest Nate Sellers of Average Jack Archery about bow accessories. The guys cover the basics of peep sights, rests, sights, and stabilizers. When it comes to bow accessories, you often get what you pay for. But that doesn’t mean you have to break the bank. Nate shares the pros and cons of different accessories, some personal recommendations, and things folks should consider when outfitting their bow.

You can find more from Nate on his YouTube channel, Average Jack Archery, and on his website, www.averagejackarchery.com.

Show notes

On this episode of The Nomadic Outdoorsman Dan talks with Pete Muller and Mark Hatfield, 2 NWTF staffers and longtime hunters of numerous game animals. Pete works in the communications department and Mark is the director of conservation services for the NWTF

Pete Muller has a B. S. in Communications from East Carolina University and has since worked the majority of his career in non-profit communications, spending the last nine years with the National Wild Turkey Federation. Before working with the NWTF, Muller lived and worked in Colorado and Wyoming and also took advantage of the hunting and other outdoor opportunities offered in the Rocky Mountain region. Since starting with the Federation, Muller has worked to tell the NWTF story through a variety of outlets, and now works as an integral part of the team that oversees magazine, website, social media and email communication.

Throughout his 17-year tenure with the Federation, Hatfield has played a crucial role in guiding the organization’s conservation delivery. Hatfield’s accomplishments with the NWTF are far-ranging, including trapping and transferring Gould’s wild turkeys from Mexico to Arizona, working directly with state wildlife agencies and the NWTF Technical Committee and conceptualizing and delivering NWTF landscape-scale initiatives, to name a few.
