Summary

What is a "thermal hub"? What is a "thermal switch"? How do mature whitetail bucks travel differently in the morning vs. the afternoon? And, what implications do these phenomena have in the whitetail woods? On today's episode, Jacob is going to discuss the research that was recently revealed by Derrick Dixon of Whitetail Research and what he found as he observed mature whitetails for all of the 2024 hunting season. Additionally, Jacob will share his perspective on thermals and how he observes them holistically and on a case by case basis in the field. Lastly, Jacob shares his hopes for the 2026 hunting season and the 5 tags he hopes to fill.
