Maybe share with me what are some misconceptions about public land in Iowa, Missouri.

People are afraid that they're going to run into all these hunters and that they're going to have this bad experience.

But really, we have overwhelmingly positive experiences with the people that we meet out there.

Like I mentioned, some of the best friendships that we've made over the years have been those guys that we met on public land.

Just talked with them, got to be friends with them, work together.

White till deer, especially buck.

Bucks, you know.

Bed in a certain way.

Where's he got a lot of things that is advantage like wind, sights, you know, his smell of where can he hear stuff coming?

The number one determining factor is the lack of human scent.

But like we said while ago, 200 yards is still a long way.

So, you know, even if there's a parking lot right there, if there's a road leading in and nobody's walking off that road and hunting a trail that's 30 yards in the woods,

everybody's going to that parking lot.

That deer usually knows that.

You know, he's going to avoid that area, but that doesn't mean that he's going to live two miles away.

Alright folks, welcome to the Gritty Bowman Podcast.

We're in Indiana at the ATA show and I'm here with the hunting public and we've got Aaron Warbwritten, Zach Farron-Baw and Greg Clements.

And I was told about you guys from Jeremy Eldridge over here at Hoyt and he's like, you got to talk to these guys.

They're really cool.

And I'm a Western hunter, primarily.

This year I went on three Whitetail Hunts.

One of them technically feels more like last year because it was Alabama, rut in February.
