Hey everyone, welcome to episode 192 of the Antler Up Podcast!

On this week's episode I was joined by PA native Steve Sherk Jr. to kick off the PA state wide opener week!  This is the second year in a row that Steve has kicked off the season for us.  If you are like me, when Steve speaks you have to listen!  He is one of the best out there when it comes to providing helpful information and has year after year success in the PA woods.    This was a really fun episode to record because we discussed some plans for this upcoming season, Steve’s ability to adapt to hunting pressure, potential outlook for the 2023 season, timing your hunts and a whole lot more!

We begin this episode by hearing Steve share what he is doing to finalize things for this upcoming season with more prep work with cameras.  Steve discusses what hunting means to him and the impact it has made on his life.  Following this up Steve has been able to adapt to the hunting pressure.  With more great information out there Steve has changed some of his strategies to better his odds on a PA mature buck.  With the low kill numbers, mild winter Steve believes in his area this upcoming year can be a good one.  We dive into food options, his 3 C’s and his top 3 rules when it comes to hunting those big ole cautious bucks!  I greatly appreciate Steve for all that he has done and is doing for the hunting community and can’t wait to see his success and get a chance to catch up with him again! Be sure to check out his Mountain Buck University YouTube channel and his Sherk’s Guide Service!  Enjoy this fun episode and see you next week! 

Thanks again for all the support and best of luck out there and Antler Up!
