DIY Sportsman - Wisconsin Hunt Breakdown Nov 12, 2020

Show notes

In this podcast I tell the story of how I scouted into an area that I ended up killing my biggest buck to date. From the time we left the truck, we'd gotten a near shot opportunity, climbed trees and hunted from the saddles, got back down and covered a total of 4.5 miles before finding a spot that dictated that we sit in ambush again. No sooner had we gotten set up on the ground than this guy came walking in, and I got my opportunity. In the podcast I talk about the weather and its impact on the decisions we made, along with specifically what sign we saw that caused us to stop scouting and sit again. I also had this buck on camera from October a few times but nearly three quarters of a mile away at the time, and primarily nocturnal photos with with unpredictable travel. Mobility really was what made it happen. DIY Sportsman is Powered by Simplecast

Ohio Huntsman - More People Using Ohio's Public Lands Nov 11, 2020

Show notes

This week we discuss the multiple uses of our public lands. We foreshadowed this topic in a previous episode when we discussed that the pandemic would increase outdoor activities and the use of our public lands. This has certainly happened and with the opening of various hunting seasons across the state it has now started to cause some tensions between people hunting and people doing other outdoor activities that tend to be bad for a hunting experience. We discuss what we think are some possible solutions to the issue and also how we would handle some of these conflicts that have been occurring between hunters and non-hunters.

Land & Legacy - Bucks in Range and Arrows Launched Nov 10, 2020

Show notes

Following up last week's podcast when we dove deep into habitat and whitetail deer movements during the rut. This week, we review a bow hunt that eventually leads to a mature buck stepping into range for Adam and Chad. As we noticed consistent daylight movement on a specific ridge on the Keith farm, we moved in mid-day to hang a new treestand to take advantage of the upcoming winds. This stand was positioned just off the edge of thick cover overlooking a few fresh scrapes. On the first sit, the buck they went in after, appeared with 5 does. The setup and plan were becoming a reality. You will have to find out what happened next by listening to the podcast! This story is a culmination of years of habitat work, a three history with a specific buck, a lifetime of learning a property, and the predictability of November rut behavior! We hope you enjoy the podcast. #ForLoveoftheLand Land & Legacy is Powered by Simplecast

Huntavore - Specialization is Only for Insects Nov 09, 2020

Show notes

Shane Ball, former professional chef, took his trade to a very high level. Starting as a kid who wanted to make money and found a dishwashing position, and worked his way to making food for one of the most notorious chefs in the world. His travels and training opened his horizons to a world of mixing flavors and preparing high level dishes. Shane isn’t all foodie, but also hunts and forages in Alberta, Canada. He chases many species, but explains that Elk, with the exciting way of calling and chasing is his favorite. Next to moose, it offers quantity along with the quality of meat harvested. An earlier episode, we discussed how using some economical knives in your kit, saves cash, but improves your skill as a sharpener. Shane offers a different perspective, get the pricy knife. When you’re ready, making the purchase will help in your slicing and dicing. I’m hard pressed to upscale my butcher’s kit, but my kitchen gear could use an upgrade. Shane also takes some avenues that i’ve never even thought of. Like savory oatmeal to serve with venison, I did not expect that. Looks like my side dish game is getting turned on its head.
