This week we take a deep dive into understanding and hunting bucks in velvet and those heart stopping bachelor groups we love to see. We have a great group of guests: Mark Haslam, a rabid whitetail guy who hunts SC and has years of velvet buck experience, Alan Summerford, an impressive young habitat manager who has perfected the strategy of creating velvet killing areas, and Kyle Lybarger the native plant specialist, helps us understand what natives are attractive right now. Have you ever hunted dropping muscadines? It’s a great discussion. Does deer meat taste better from late summer harvested deer? Listen, Learn and Enjoy.
