- 367: Should You Shoot Does In The Late Season? with Adam Miller and Nate Rozeveld
Habitat Podcast #367 - In today’s episode of The Habitat Podcast, we are back in the studio with our good friends Adam Miller and Nate Rozeveld! We discuss:
Private land deer move differently than pressured public land deer
Equipment upgrades can unlock major habitat improvements
Small plots can be movement tools, not just feeding destinations
Doe harvest is a critical but often underused management lever
Seeing deer doesn’t always mean appreciating the hunt
Out-of-state habitat diversity changes deer movement drastically
Transitions matter more than acreage size
Boots-on-the-ground scouting still beats digital maps alone
Late-season doe harvest can improve herd health
Hunting mindset matters as much as strategy
And So Much More!

1 hr 13 min - 366: Why You Should Be Managing for Grouse To Make Your Deer Habitat Better with
Habitat Podcast #366 - In today’s episode of The Habitat Podcast, we are back in the studio with our good friends Erich Long and Cody Altizer! We discuss:
Managing for grouse improves deer habitat across the entire property

Everything done for grouse benefits whitetails, not the other way around
Deer thrive as generalists; grouse expose weak habitat
Young forest habitat benefits deer, turkeys, birds, and pollinators
Invasive species quietly destroy forest-floor wildlife habitat
Responsible logging creates life, not destruction
Managing from the forest floor up changes everything
Grouse are a gateway species for better land stewardship
