Thanks for tuning in everybody on this one. I'm going to be talking with the rest of the guys

0:03.7

from THP and we're going to be telling our best rut stories of all time. Obviously a lot of

0:10.4

white tail hunters are looking forward to November throughout the whole year and usually create some

0:15.9

pretty crazy stories every year. Whether that's from you or your hunting buddies, usually stuff gets

0:21.1

pretty wild when bucks start getting with does. So in this episode I just wanted to tell some of our

0:25.7

favorite rut stories from over the years and the tip that we have for hunting the rut presented

0:31.2

by our friends at Vortex is a lot of times bucks will get themselves in the unique positions

0:36.0

when they're bedded with does and sometimes that puts them in a vulnerable place where you can

0:40.2

glass them up. For most of the season bucks are usually hidden tucked away in the cover

0:45.1

where they're pretty hard to see but when they get with does a lot of times they'll put themselves

your way through the timber there's a really good chance you're going to pick up on a buck.

1:17.2

1:22.8

warranty. If your optics get broken no matter how it happens vortex will either fix the problem

1:28.2

or replace the optics that are broken for you. Then with a warranty like this I always think

1:32.8

if you buy it once then you should have it for life as long as you don't lose it because if

1:36.6

something happens to it they're going to help you out. If you guys want to save 10% off of vortex
