This week on the Missouri Woods & Water Podcast, Nate and Andy get the chance to talk with friend of the show Torry Cook of MFK Game Calls about hunting coyotes with a shotgun.  The discussion covers various hunting strategies, including the effectiveness of shotguns versus rifles, and the impact of hunting pressure on coyote behavior.  Torry emphasizes the importance of understanding coyote personalities and how they learn from their experiences, which can affect their response to calls. The conversation also touches on the need for hunters to adapt their techniques as coyotes become more educated about hunting pressures.  He also emphasizes the significance of setting up in cover to gain a tactical advantage.  Torry is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to hunting and reading coyotes.  Thanks for listening!

This week on the Missouri Woods & Water Podcast Nate & Micah sit down with Micah's old buddy Jake Morrison and have a great time listening to him tell us the story about his recent red stag hunt in Argentina.  Jake's buddy won this hunt at a banquet, so the two friends decided to go without much of an idea of what to expect.  Jake decided why not experience something he may never get the chance or have the idea to do ever again, and the memories and stories that come from the trip do not disappoint!!  With experiences that were so different from what Jake has experienced hunting for most of his life, this trip will be one he doesn't soon forget.  Thanks for listening!!!

First, we have a short little mini show with Micah's son Lawson about his first deer.  After that, we get into Pat's archery buck, Nate's second archery buck, Andy's rifle buck, and finally Pat's rifle buck.  As always, our rut was full of awesome memories made in the woods, and some awesome deer as well.  Hopefully everyone had an awesome rut, but if you didn't, there is still a month left to get it done!  Thanks for listening!

In this episode of the Missouri Woods & Water Podcast we welcome back our friend Corey Groff and talk about his story this season with the "Short G2 Buck".  Our conversation delves into the challenges of hunting in unseasonably warm weather, the strategies Corey employed to hunt this deer, and the lessons learned from a missed shot during the hunt.  We talk about the evolving narrative within the hunting community regarding the realities of hunting, and the steps taken to track and recover a wounded deer.  We also touch on the relief that comes with knowing a deer has survived after being wounded.  Corey reflects on the emotional rollercoaster of missing the first shot, the determination to track the deer down, and ultimately, the satisfaction of a successful second chance. Congrats to Corey on an awesome second chance buck and good luck out there to everyone for the rest of the season!  Thanks for listening!
