Hey everyone, welcome to episode 183 of the Antler Up Podcast!

On this week's episode I was joined by the big guy Chris Weist!  Chris is located in South Central PA, and had a crazy year last year connecting on 4 bucks in 3 different states!  When I listened to Chris on other podcasts I knew I needed to get him on the show to discuss some whitetail stuff.  This episode wraps up the mini series I did for the month of July, in what our guests are doing now to lead up to the season.  Chris was able to get ahead in the game so to speak, so it was interesting to hear how he tackles scouting multiple states for the quest to continue his whitetail success for this upcoming season.  

We get an introduction to Chris and how his postseason panned out for him.  From turkey hunting & scouting in MD, gaining access to a new property in WV, scouting his camp in OH and continuing widening the net here in PA, we hear Chris get into his plans and more.  One of the areas that Chris is focusing heavily on is improving his trad bow skills, because this year he is all in on this style of hunting.  So, when it comes to the mental preparation and technique stuff Chris walks us through his training scenarios. Following this discussion, we get into the good stuff.  We hear how he is fine tuning, connecting the dots, wind mapping in older and new areas.  Setting his expectations for summer cameras, how he strategizes specific scrapes and what he is specifically looking for in scrapes.  If you are a continued listener to the podcast you know I love this stuff. We hear stories from specific hunts and a whole lot more from Chris during this episode! 

Check it out and let us know what you think!  Enjoy this fun episode and see you next week! 

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