Summary

This week on Bear Grease, Clay Newcomb again hears from several whitetail deer hunters as hardcore as they are diverse in their methods. Gary "Believer" Newcomb tells about the one who got away when he left his decoy at home. Andy Brown tells about calling in deer, sealing the deal, and missing by a mile. John Harrison tells the story of a buck with questionable ownership and how the answer came out in the frying pan. Tony Peterson tells the story of a hunt where the adrenaline got the best of him and he got the best of the best buck of his career. Dale Craig and Travis Ross tell a story of a perfect deer hunt on horseback…until it wasn’t. Stoney Edwards discusses running dogs on whitetails and Louie Dale Edwards' last good buck. David Albright tells about killing a great buck with his traditional bow over white oak acorns. We hope you get out into the wild this week, chase a deer and remember, we’re living in the heyday of whitetail deer hunting. We really doubt you’re gonna wanna miss this one…
