Hey what is up everyone. This is Jake Hofer with Exodus Trail Cameras. Thanks for tuning in to this week's episode of Trail Cam Radio. We have the part three or final conclusion here of our impromptu Nebraska trip. We recorded it in a moving vehicle. So there's a little bit about background noise, but not too bad. This episode, we break down the hunt of my first mule deer, the deer that grant shot as well.

And we also dive into some interesting Nebraska Game in Parks, license numbers, hypothesis that we have.

an hour and literally stopped at times. And it was not a fun to ride back usually it would take us
