Summary

On this episode of Michigan Wild, Elliot Hubbard joins Nate to dive into all things deer hunting in Michigan. Elliot has been an avid Michigan hunter for years and Nate has paid attention to Elliot's posts on Facebook forums and was excited to get him on. Nate's also enjoyed the different perspectives and passion Elliot's shown towards habitat and deer herd improvements.  After getting a backstory on Elliot's upbringing the conversation turns to adequate doe harvest. Nate's curiosity about crop damage permits and how that may pertain to herd health and dynamics was discussed. SInce Elliot has participated in filling multiple crop damage tags over the years he gives some great insight on the challenges that farmers face and the importance of a healthy balance. Discussion about all the crop damage leads the guys into talking about the significance of shooting enough does in Michigan, and how we as hunters are struggling to do what's necessary to help control the population. Nate and Eliiot both agree that we must do our due diligence as hunters and have to improve.  Rounding out the conversation Nate brings up a podcast (Outdoor Drive) that Elliot's wife was a part of. She was a member of the DMI for the lower peninsula and recounts her part of the whole process. Overall it was very concerning how everything transpired and unfortunately this has been a common theme with the NRC.  Thank you for listening to the episode!
