Summary

On this episode of the East Meets West Hunt podcast, Beau Martonik is joined by Nathan Killen coming out of the mountains of southern Virginia. Nathan had an amazing 2019 deer season, but his consistency in killing mature deer every year is even more impressive. We talk about buck bedding, precision stand placement, hunting the same stand more than once, egress/regress and much more! In addition, Nathan wrote an article for me on some of these topics available at www.eastmeetswesthunt.com/journal.   Topics: Background on you and the type of area you hunt in Virginia Brief synopsis of your 2019 season Hunting bucks vs. "deer"   Buck bedding The decision a hunter makes regarding sign found and how/where to hunt in relation - precision stand placement Hunting the same stand more than once Egress and Regress   Resources: Instagram:   @eastmeetswesthunt - https://www.instagram.com/eastmeetswesthunt/ @beau.martonik - https://www.instagram.com/beau.martonik/ @mtn_huntr - https://www.instagram.com/mtn_huntr/   Facebook:    East Meets West Outdoors - https://www.facebook.com/EastMeetsWestHunt/   https://www.eastmeetswesthunt.com/   Shop new apparel!  https://www.eastmeetswesthunt.com/shop   Amazon Influencer Page https://www.amazon.com/shop/beau.martonik   Partners: onX Mapping at your finger tips on your phone, computer or GPS that will allow you scout harder, hunt farther and increase your success rates.
