The Bowhunter Chronicles Podcast - Episode 380: A Day in the Life of an Out of State Hunter - with David Riley

In this episode of the Bow Hunter Chronicles podcast, Adam interviews David Riley about his experiences out-of-state hunting. They discuss how out-of-state hunting can be intimidating, but trusting the process is essential for success. How  scouting plays a critical role—especially in unfamiliar areas—and e-scouting allows hunters to narrow down promising locations before ever arriving in the field. David describes how by identifying key landscape features, hunters can increase their chances of encountering game and making informed decisions. We discuss the thought process in choosing between all day sits or a more mobile approach depends on the time of year, conditions, and how deer are behaving, making the ability to read sign and interpret deer movement vital. We also discuss how having a cameraman along can add a new dimension to the hunt, offering a different perspective and capturing the experience, though tools like trail cameras should be used thoughtfully to avoid over-reliance on technology. Ultimately, every hunt is a learning opportunity, with each trip building knowledge that contributes to greater success in the future.
