Truth From The Stand Deer Hunting Podcast

EP. 420: Rub Lines And Swamp Bucks


Listen Later

In this episode of the Truth From The Stand podcast, I’m joined by Gage Herriman for a deep dive into what it takes to adapt and succeed in challenging hunting environments. Gage brings a ton of experience from hunting in Michigan’s unforgiving swamps and frag patches to navigating the terrain of Ohio, and we break down the strategies that have worked for him along the way.

We talk about everything from the transition to mobile hunting setups to the confidence that comes from learning your ground inside and out. Gage shares his scouting techniques, why post-season intel matters more than most think, and how understanding deer behavior has shaped his approach. He also tells the story of a wild buck hunt on an island in Ohio—a lesson in patience, timing, and trusting your instincts.

This episode is packed with practical advice for hunters of all levels, focusing on ground hunting strategies, the thrill of chasing deer in diverse landscapes, and the importance of staying adaptable. Whether you’re battling the elements or reflecting on lessons from the field, this conversation will have you ready to fine-tune your approach for next season.
