Per the QDMA Whitetail Report, hunters pursue whitetail deer more than any other species and whitetail hunters contribute financially more than any other hunter segment. Whitetails are the foundation of the hunting industry. Because of this impressive impact QDMA releases an annual report that goes deep into data and identifies trends that affect the whitetail's world and the hunters that hunt them. We thought that it only appropriate to invite Kip Adams back to discuss the highlights of this year's report, as we did last year. We plan to make it an annual event.

Chubby Tines Tip of the Week Written by Dusty Phillips

We've focused a bunch on the bow shot, but perhaps we over looked the long range rifle shot. Unless you've had the need to take a 700 yard kill shot, you may not realize how much information is needed to calculate a well placed bullet. The science is fascinating and the apps are endless. To clear this up, we invited long range hunter and shooting competitor Anthony Stallone to break it all down before you squeeze the trigger on your next long range target.

Chubby Tines Tip of the Week Written by Dusty Phillips

There have been far more 300" non-typical bucks killed since the early 2000s than ever documented before the year 2000. So what gives? Gordon Whittington, the Editor in Chief of North American Whitetail joins us for a second time to explore just that. Is it genetics, is it food, what can history tell us from hundreds of years ago, what about the big deer that came in the decades before the new millennium? We discuss all this in detail and dig deep into the Luke Brewster buck story, the monster Illinois buck from 2018, currently featured in North American Whitetail Magazine.

Chubby Tines Tip of the Week Written by Dusty Phillips

Although Harmon Carson is known as the Bayou Bowhunter, he sharpened his bowhunting skills in the in the mountains of Colorado. Harmon credits his dad for lots of his skills, but not necessarily in the traditional father/son teaching sense. In many cases, Harmon learned to hunt because his father would escort him into the woods, but from then on he was on his own to learn the rest - methods that might not fly today. Nonetheless, those lessons made Harmon one heck of a good bowhunter - no more gun, no more compound, just straight up traditional bowhunting. Harmon says, learn to hunt first and the weapon you choose becomes irrelevant.

Chubby Tines Tip of the Week Written by Dusty Phillips

J.C. Hall might not be on the trigger most of the time, but he's hunting all the time. When he does hunt for himself, it's a quality over quantity kind of thing. These days J.C. is frequently on tour with the likes of country singer Aaron Lewis where he's running the camera or editing for the show On the Road Outdoors. J.C. says he's always hunting in a sense because the footage needs capturing and he doesn't want to be the guy to mess up the hunt. J.C. is an interesting guy with a colorful past - he studied golf at Penn State, was pit crew member on the NASCAR circuit, and is now a producer for Open Season TV and Editor for On the Road.

Chubby Tines Tip of the Week Written by Dusty Phillips

After 35 years of hunting and after burning out a camera man or two, there's no sign of Chuck Paddock hunting less. Chuck is a busy business man and is part owner of Open Season TV (you may remember our interview on Epi 200 with Chuck's partner James Blakenbeckler). Chuck doesn't consider the work surrounding Open Season actual work as it's not his how he makes his living. But he sure does love to hunt and he enjoys bringing his hunts to life for others through video. Chuck's big things are low pressure, careful entry and exit routes, and an abundant use of game cameras.

Chubby Tines Tip of the Week Written by Dusty Phillips

The Bearded Butchers, otherwise known as brothers Seth and Scott Perkins, grew up learning butchery as part of the family business butchering domestic livestock. They carried their knowledge into the hunter's world by hunting for and butchering all types of wild game. And what goes great with meat? Spices! So the brothers ventured into the spice business which grew it's now infamous label from their bearded father and namesake inspired by membership at a local beard club. Their spices are all natural, free of sugar, MSG, and anti-caking materials and the brothers' deer processing YouTube videos about how to correctly process and age venison has gone absolutely viral. In this show, we explore all the Bearded Butcher secrets to successful deer processing, how jerky can break down deer hunting barriers, and how you can do it too.

Chubby Tines Tip of the Week Written by Dusty Phillips

It's been 4 years since we last visited with our friends at Major League Bowhunter. Every conversation we've had with their crew has lead to some deep thinking related to hunting, industry challenges, and solutions to keep hunting alive for generations to come. According to Matt, due to some legislation and some economic factors relative to agriculture in Mississippi, the Mississippi deer hunting has never been so good. We reflect on Matt's 2018-2019 deer season and then we turn to Brandon Adams, a long time MLB crew member, and learn how he prepared for a season he called the Oklahoma Slam which involved taking one of each of the 5 big game species in Oklahoma in a single hunting season using over the counter tags available to anyone.

Chubby Tines Tip of the Week Written by Dusty Phillips

The arborists are probably the first to harness the power of the tree harness, but what about the rock climbing community? According to Greg Godfrey from the tree harness company Tethrd, we need to give credit to each. And that's pretty much how his company got its roots - it's a deer hunter meets arborist meets rock climber kind of story. Greg says that due to the demand to pack lighter to get to your favorite deer hunting spot without sacrificing safety or the ability to hunt from a tree, Tethrd was born. Tethrd isn't the first tree harness company, but they are perhaps the first to focus on this method of hunting that's been around for quite a while and really make some innovative advancements. We discuss with Greg the products that Tethrd offers, how to use them effectively, and how their system can safely make you a lighter more mobile deer hunter.
