Southern Ground Hunting - Takeaways From Early Alabama Opener, 3 Deer On The Ground, & A BIG Buck Encounter On Public Land Oct 19, 2020

Show notes

This week Parker and Drew are going over some of their main takeaways from hunting the early Alabama opener. With 3 deer on the ground already, it would seem as though the deer movement has been good, however that is not the case for them, or many people they have talked to from the area. The guys talk in depth about the areas that are usually hotspots for the mid October opener, that just haven't produced any sightings, nor do they have the amount of sign that they usually have. They also tell the stories of the deer they have killed, talking further about the effectiveness of a high FOC arrow build & some of the tactics they used to come out of the woods successful. Parker also talks about an encounter he had with a huge, mature, and reclusive Alabama giant buck this weekend, and how it nearly worked out! Southern Ground Hunting is powered by Simple Cast.

DIY Sportsman - Top 10 Public Land Mistakes Oct 15, 2020

Show notes

Everyone is prone to making mistakes on public land. I'm certainly not immune, as I've made many over the years. Reflecting back on some of my failures or shortcomings, I've come up with a list of ten potential pitfalls that can be easy to fall into when hunting on public land. This list is certainly not all encompassing, but hits on a lot of key items that would be good for new public land hunters to be aware of. There are also a few mistakes that I think even some of the more experienced guys can fall victim do without having someone else to bounce the idea off of or refresh their viewpoint.

With the 2020 season upon us, we thought it would be a good idea to run through the regulation changes for this season as well as some reminders for other things that seem to trip people up every year. We discuss changes to some of the upland bird season dates and bag limits. We discuss the new regulation that allows active duty military and veterans to hunt during the youth waterfowl season. The change that allows you to small game hunt during any of the deer firearm seasons. As well as some reminders on how deer management permits can be used and how to stay legal when bringing deer/elk/moose harvested in another state back into Ohio.

Land & Legacy - How Does Rainfall Impact A Management Plan in Texas? Oct 13, 2020

Show notes

On this week's podcast, we compare and contrast two different regions of the great state of Texas. Kyle Hedges joins Matt Dye on this podcast as the recommendations begin to flow. As we know and share during this podcast, the region you own or hunt property in makes a considerable difference. We highlight two different properties this week, one that receives only 21 inches of rainfall a year and another that gets over 50, both in the state of TX, both that want to manage deer and wild turkey. 30 Inches of rain doesn't seem like a lot, but over the course of a year and the timing of these rains has serious implications on vegetation growth, prescribed usage, stress periods for wildlife and much more. We hope you enjoy this week's podcast and learn more about the natural world and the factors that make it work and flow. #ForLoveoftheLand Land & Leagacy is Powered by Simplecast

Land & Legacy - 230" Whitetail Mega Giant Buck, Again! Oct 13, 2020

Show notes

Not one, not two, but three bucks over 200" in four years is quite the accomplishment. Throw in a 193" buck last year and you're looking at one of the best four years of deer hunting anyone can have on free range whitetails! Greg Glesinger of Drury Outdoors is a longtime friend and Land & Legacy Client and his story is something we can all learn from. "You have to put deer hunting aside when trying to manage your land." Gregs says when he made a major shift in the production of his farm. In 2017 we visited Greg's farms and immediately saw major potential. By focusing on ROI (Return on Investment) or practices that actually make a return on the property for wildlife value both in the short term and long term. Timber Stand Improvement, Old Field Management, Edge Feathering, Savanna Restoration, and many more, have led to one of the healthiest deer herds we have worked with. We don't just discuss the habitat work, we also discuss hunting strategy and using ROI on selecting days to hunt. This is a podcast devoted to doing what's right for the land and how to capitalize on the benefits. Greg is a wealth of knowledge and we know you'll enjoy this one! #ForLoveoftheLand Land & Legacy is powered by Simplecast
