When it comes to experienced land managers and an advocate for the whitetail deer, there is none greater than Skip Sligh. On this episode of the Nine Finger Chronicles, Skip and Dan break down his annual habitat management strategy. The two kick off the episode with a little BS Session about a presentation he gave at the recent Iowa Deer Classic about bogus rules and regulations trying to become introduced and what can happen when hunters ban together and voice their opinions.
Listen as Skip talks about enhancing the careering capacity of the deer on the land through creating natural browse, bedding areas, trigger control, and removing unwanted vegetation. This is habitat talk at the highest level, including topics that may go against popular belief. Enjoy and share!

Broken Bodies & Non-Resident Hunts

If you live in the midwest or the south and haven't done any scouting this year, I hate to say it, but you missed out on the perfect time of the year to scout. With that said scouting now is still better than no scouting at all. On this episode of the Nine Finger Chronicles, Dan gives his opinions about what we should all be doing right now to find better hunting locations for the fall. Dan talks about when trail cameras should go up, locating terrain features through e-scouting vs. boots on the ground, and knowing that just because deer are in a specific area right now, doesn't mean that they will be there come hunting season. This is a short, yet educational episode that might just help you get ready for the upcoming deer hunting season. Enjoy and share!

On this episode of the Nine Finger Chronicles, Dan is joined by John Stallone of HOWL For Wildlife to discuss hunting ethics and conservation. John and Dan dives in to topics and questions like... "When does the use of trail cameras become unethical?", different weapons like crossbows, and if it is possible for hunters who disagree on specific rules and regulation to find common ground?
Then the guys end the episode by discussing why HOWL is such an active organization when it comes to uniting hunters, making hunters aware of introduced legislation, and fighting for our rights to continue to enjoy the outdoors through hunting and fishing.
