On today's episode of The Exodus Podcast, we are back in the studio talking with renowned whitetail biologist and host of the Deer University Podcast Dr. Bronson Strickland. Bronson has devoted years to studying whitetails and has helped the hunting industry as a whole expand what they knew or thought they knew about whitetails.

We discuss:

• Mature bucks are not always nocturnal
• Bucks are active and on their feet before sunset, but are most frequently observed on food plots around an hour after sunset
• Bucks daylight behavior depends on their food source's proximity
• Mature bucks may cover less ground during the rut
• Beating a deer's nose entirely is nearly impossible
• Understanding the complexity of buck movement and the role of wind direction
• Whitetails are adaptable and conditioned to respond to stimuli for survival
• Mature bucks may exhibit individual behavior based on their upbringing and experiences
• Two-thirds of bucks have a sedentary personality, while one-third are mobile
• Mobile bucks can be further classified as shifters or bouncers
• The October lull is not applicable in the South, where it is more accurate to consider the period before the rut
• Understanding the relationship between cover corridors and prevailing winds
• Data analysis reveals that there is no clear pattern for how bucks use wind direction
• The extent and position of the moon's influence on deer movements still remain uncertain

And so much more!
