On this episode of the Nine Finger Chronicles, Dan chats with Michigan hunter Brock Wingo about a special draw hunt he went on this year. Each year the state of Michigan allows hunters an opportunity to hunt a in a nature preserve in a special regulation lottery. Brock explains that he drew to hunt the first 7 days of the archery season. He talks about the preparation that went in to this hunt, the importance of e-scouting, getting information from other hunters who hunted this property, and what happened when he ran in to other hunters in the locations that he wanted to set up in.

Because of his work schedule, he was only able to hunt 4 out of the the 7 days as well as sacrificing some of his time to look for a buck that another hunter shot. Luckily, Brock was able to locate a huge rub line that led in to an isolated bedding island in the middle of a swamp. With a couple close calls, and attacking the deer from the ground, Brock shares the story of this special hunt.
