Summary

Beau Martonik sits down at deer camp with Jason Redd and Ryan Luckadoo from Timber Ninja Outdoors for a wide-open conversation about the chaos, lessons, and laughs from a week in the West Virginia mountains. The guys dive into how they’ve been approaching the rut, the challenges of hunting new terrain, and the role scent and setups played in their decisions. They also get into some of the realities of joining a hunting lease—run-ins with neighbors, navigating local expectations, and figuring out how to fit into a new area the right way. Jason and Beau give a look at some of the new Timber Ninja gear they’ve been running, including the Frostline hand warmer and boot covers designed to make long sits more comfortable. And as always, the stories from camp steal the show—from close calls to learning moments to Ryan tagging a great buck. It’s the kind of episode that reminds you why time at deer camp matters just as much as the hunting itself.
