Summary

On this episode, we hosted a roundtable discussion with some of the best whitetail hunters we know - Johnthan Moreland, Jeremy Aron, Daniel Lemon, Scott Seales, and Carl Brown! Collectively, these hunters consistently tag mature bucks in Mississippi, Arkansas, South Carolina, Alabama and many other states across the southeast and midwest. It was great getting to hear a room full of such great deer hunters discuss what makes each of them successful, and how they each approach different situations. Johnathan, Jeremy and Carl being more familiar with flat river bottom/swamp habitat, and Scott & Daniel are more keen on hunting in the hills. Subjects include: A deep dive on feed trees from each hunter's perspective Finding that "ice cream" tree that the bucks seem to gravitate to Finding those special feed trees to come back to year after year Judging a bucks rack by rubs High barometric pressure days, good or bad for buck movement? Hunting the backside of the rut to target the BIG deer and a TON more! Got a question for the show?
