Southern Ground - Making Your Shot Count On Big Bucks Feb 17, 2022

Show notes

This week's fireside chat topic is brought to us from Matt Reaves. "What are we doing to make sure we can capitalize in the moment of truth?" This really is a great question. As the guys discuss this topic, they talk through their shot process and how each remains focused. As these chats normally do, this one takes a turn from shot process to eating deer nuts... and other odd things that can be eaten from a game animal. We like having fun and this was definitely a fun conversation!

Average Conservationist - A Conservation Story with Jeff Sposito Feb 16, 2022

Show notes

Joining Marcus this week on The Average Conservationist Podcast is Jeff Sposito. Jeff is a member on the Board of Directors for 2% as well as the President and CEO of Stone Glacier. Jeff opens up the conversation talking about his upbringing on a cattle ranch in California, what he thought the future held for him, and how that all changed. Working for, at the time, an up and coming outdoor brand named Sitka Gear, Jeff wanted to give back and wanted to give other brands a mechanism for doing so as well, and the idea for 2% For Conservation was born. Almost six years later and 2% has become the benchmark for business and individuals in giving back to wildlife.

N.F.C. - Nine Fingers Unfiltered - You Should Be Scouting Right Now Feb 16, 2022

Show notes

On this episode of the Nine Finger Chronicles, Dan goes on a rant about hunting becoming a rich mans sport and his thoughts on post season scouting. "One this I have noticed in my area of the state is that as land owners get older and eventually pass away their children decide to sell the property, especially if it is a property with any agriculture on it and the family who it was passed down to have decided to not follow in the family footsteps. This opens the door up for someone who is not "local" to come in and purchase the land, then cash rent the farming, and either lease up the hunting rights or they themself hunt, and leads to displacement of local hunters, thus leading to less hunters. Just thinking outloud."

Then Dan breaks down what is is looking for when he heads out to the woods for his post season scouting sessions. Stem count on vegetation, floating trails, looking for old sign and if it is important, along with several other observations that play a huge role when scouting.

Whitetail Landscapes - Should I Buy Hunting Land? Feb 15, 2022

Show notes

On this episode, Jon Teater and Anthony Barnum, Outdoor Writer and Gear Guru, discuss owning land, and the factors that led them to buying property. Buying land can be one of the most involved and complicated endeavors we go through as individuals and can be taxing and liberating all at the same time. In this discussion we get into the pitfalls and benefits of owning land. Anthony breakdowns what he’s doing on his land to improve it and his number one improvement he believes most should consider after purchasing property. Anthony is focused on maximizing his land and receiving a benefit hunting wise via logging. Anthony has taken it on himself to mark timber and layout a logging plan to include some enhancements that will increase deer interest over time.

If you are considering buying land or are fortunate to hunt on family property this episode discusses the thoughts, attitudes, and the concessions we sometimes must make in order to find a balance between meeting goals and keeping healthy relationships with family and friends. It’s important to be realistic and find success in our own ways and don’t forget that goals can be set but may need to be rethought in order to be achieved. Anthony and Jon discuss family and bringing children up with hunting and how they are approaching things differently from how they were taught.

Further, Anthony and Jon discuss working with neighbors; this include strategies you may consider that could help push your agenda in the locality. Understanding that we sometimes might deal with highly pressured ground, especially during gun season, can be a major detractor, but we must work through these frustrations and be keen on when the time is right to go after the deer we want to harvest. Anthony advocates that looking for other properties and evaluating areas that may be more aligned with your goals. Selling land may be a consideration for some, but Anthony is playing the long game on his properties and he hopes that his current and future improvements will help him meet his goals.

Missouri Woods & Water - Solo Backcountry Success Feb 15, 2022

Show notes

During our 2021 elk season, the Missouri Woods & Water crew crossed paths with our new friend Will Judson. Will was out in Colorado at the same time as us chasing his dream of harvesting an elk with his bow, and he was by himself. Will's story should be an inspiration to anyone who has excuses as to why they don't or can't do things. Will had only even been a hunter for a few years before this, had no one to go with him in a daunting place, but yet he still was determined to work hard and get it done. Well, spoiler alert, he got it done and that's where we met him. Another awesome aspect of Will's story is the friendships that were made as our paths crossed on that random trail. None of this happens if Will decided that he couldn't do it and stayed home on his couch. Get out there and do want you want to do. It's there for the taking, you just have to take it. Congrats on an amazing accomplishment Will!
