Summary

In this episode, I sit down with Chris Sutton to swap stories from the woods and dive into what it’s really like hunting local deer around Covington and Social Circle. We get into the nuances of hunting pressured whitetails, how the local terrain and seasons shape our strategies, and what keeps us coming back year after year.

Of course, no hunting conversation is complete without a few tales of heartbreak—so we also share stories about the bucks that got away. The close calls, the missed opportunities, and the lessons learned from those unforgettable moments.

Whether you’re a seasoned hunter or just enjoy a good story from the outdoors, this episode is packed with real experiences, local insight, and a bit of that “what could’ve been” that every hunter knows too well.

Tune in for:

Hunting tactics for Covington & Social Circle areas
Real-world deer behavior and local patterns
Memorable encounters in the field
Stories of the bucks we still think about
