Welcome to the Antler Up podcast and our special series, The Antler Up Sessions.

These episodes come straight from the conversations between myself and Dan Johnson of the Nine Finger Chronicles.

Dan is one of the most respected voices in the White Tail world, known for his no BS approach,

his deep knowledge of deer behavior and his ability to connect hunters through stories that resonate. In this series, you'll hear discussions that dig into strategy, gear, access, and terrain, conservation, and the mindset that keeps us pushing forward. It's not just about filling tags.
