Summary

This week on the Antler Up Podcast, Jeremy kicks things off with a quick update and an important announcement. Episode 300 is right around the corner, and to celebrate the milestone the right way, Jeremy will be recording it straight from deer camp during Thanksgiving weekend alongside his closest friends. That means the next two Wednesdays will feature some of the best re-run episodes from the Antler Up archive to keep the momentum rolling while we gear up for the big celebration. Today, we’re bringing back Episode 146 with Pennsylvania hunter Curt DeLattre, one of the strongest rut-focused conversations we’ve ever had on the show. In this episode, Curt breaks down how he reads rut sign, how he decides when to strike, and the mindset it takes to stay centered during one of the most unpredictable times of the deer season. Jeremy also shares a quick recap of his recent hunts before diving into this listener-favorite conversation. Whether you’re grinding out November sits or getting ready for the post-Thanksgiving push, this is one worth reliving. Antler Up!
