I swear my first few seasons were a bust because I didn't understand scent and wind. Don't make the same mistake I did, tune in and listen to how to use these towards your advantage. 

Scent can also be great for when you can smell an animal like elk. Without seeing them, they could be within a quarter mile just by smelling them. Then you can follow your nose and close the distance.

Here in Utah, I hunt in the high desert and some areas do not have a water hole for miles. It's odd to me though because deer still frequent the area. So, what is a bowhunter to do to dial in the patterns more and possibly draw deer in? In this episode I talk about an option that involves burying a kiddie pool in the ground, now, this may not be allowed on public land in your area so you need to make sure you understand the laws. In my research, this was geared more towards private land owners. However, maybe there could be a natural way to promote water capture? Would love to hear your thoughts and open up this conversation. 

This Friday July 22nd 2022, I'll be at Total Archery Challenge in Park City. If you're around give me a shout! Also, check my Instagram for new FIRST GENERATION BOWHUNTER tees! Listeners get them for $15, just send to my venmo at @adam-buchanan-3 and I'll ship you one.
