Western Rookie - Shed Hunting Jackson Hole

In this episode, Jon Teater (Whitetail Landscapes) and Travis Harmon (Creative Habitat) discuss a project of restarting an area for pollinator blends and the individual steps that a landowner can take when thinking through the process of establishing flowering plant species. Travis explains the importance of understanding when nature drops seeds and trying to replicate seed drop times to align with planting processes. Travis explains a better way to develop a pollinator blend and utilizes his nursery to expand and provide better plants to his clients. Travis discusses rooting hormones to support better plant development.
Jon discusses an ancient technique to help better propagate plants across hunting properties. Jon discusses easy ways that support an increase in raspberries, blackberries, red osier dogwood. Travis discusses other ways to develop plants and ideas around developing better plants that have higher survival. Jon and Travis explain the benefit of using fabric to reduce weed competition and
Travis explains his new property and activities around enhancing each area and ways to make changes on a new hunting property. Travis details current federal programs, and improvements surrounding upland birds, Wetland Reserve Program (WRP), and row tree planting. Travis breaks down his new property and areas that are problematic and plants like cattails, and limitations related to the WRP program that are impactful. Travis details the steps of adding fruit trees, food plots, tree plantings. Travis discusses removing cottonwood trees and cattails. Travis discusses turning a property around that has very few deer. 
Travis goes through the steps of removing cottonwood, and why it's necessary to reduce species that over compete other preferred plants. Travis explains mistakes he has made with removing trees and what chemicals work best when removing certain tree species. Travis discusses designing a property around fire and how if its not done properly it can limit your ability to maintain a property. Travis discusses wetlands, the importance of removing non-preferred plants to support an increase in duck interest and feeding. Jon discusses beaver areas and the related benefits after these animals disband these areas. Travis explains the importance of emergent wetlands and overlooked plants in these areas. Travis and Jon discuss tree plantings and replacement plants for cottonwoods, such as chokecherry, dogwoods, elderberry.

Whitetail Landscapes - Pollinators, Plant Propagation, Hunting Property Transformation

Every April the Wisconsin DNR releases a questionnaire to the public to ask for public input regarding conservation-related issues that are on the radar looking towards the future. The in-person Spring Hearings are then held by each district's Conservation Congress, where citizens can ask questions, and make their opinions known about issues that matter to them. It's an incredible opportunity for regular people like you and I to provide input, and an even better opportunity for outdoorsmen and conservationists to help further initiatives towards positive change. Some of the questions also make you think pretty hard.
This week, Pierce sits down with Wisconsin BHA Board member, Alec Bekkers, to discuss a few of the Hearing questions that stuck out to them the most, and more importantly, what some of them mean for conservation, public land access, and hunter/angler rights and opportunities. The guys cover a little bit of everything including: trout regulations, wake boats, panfish limits, technology in the outdoors, houndsmen advocacy, and most importantly, that outdoorsmen need to do a better job of showing up, making their voices heard, and fighting for hunter rights. It's a thought-provoking conversation that's just the tip of the iceberg. You can go find the spring hearing questionnaire on the DNR website, and join Backcountry Hunters & Anglers at https://www.backcountryhunters.org/join

Missouri Woods & Water - Spring BS Session

Spring has sprung across the podcast sphere and the boys have moved the Gone To The Dogs operation to the front porch where the air is fresh and the conversation flows a little more freely.
This episode will be Corey’s last for awhile as he and his wife Kayla welcome their second child, another girl, into the Gruver household. It could happen at any time. It’s an exciting time for sure and one that will demand a little more of Corey’s attention than usual. He’ll rejoin the show as soon as things settle down a bit over there in Greenville, PA.
In this parting episode, the discussion moves to the winners of the UKC Tournament of Champions briefly before plunging headlong into the interesting realm of multi-purpose hounds. The boys explore every conceivable application of the term from competition versus pleasure dogs to targeting multi-species with the same breed and virtually everything in between. Imagine a dog that you can leave the porch and with which you can catch anything from a gray squirrel to a big ole stinking bear before the sun sets and turn around and hunt nocturnal furbearers with until the first gray streaks of dawn! Now that’s what we’re talkin’ about! Pull up a rocker. Things are finna start.
