A northern-lights hero shot over a 181-inch bruiser, a velvet monarch patterned off rice-field levees, and a spot-and-stalk eight at 28 yards—our season didn’t happen by chance. We break down how we stacked just under 1,800 inches of antler across Illinois, Kansas, Texas, and Arkansas by focusing on the details most hunters skip: wind, entry, pressure, and maturity over inches.

Enjoy the stories, steal the tactics, and help us raise the bar. Subscribe, share this with your hunting crew, and leave a comment with the one lesson you’re taking to your next sit.

Wild alligators are booming, but the market is bust. We bring on Jay Paul from Swamp People for a candid look at what happens when farmed gators flood supply with flawless hides, processors stop buying mid-season, and agencies extend fall dates into cold fronts that shut down feeding. It’s a real-time lesson in wildlife economics and biology: pay-by-the-foot hides, meat that sits, and a population that climbs while incentives for wild harvest vanish.

Jay opens up about the tradeoffs no spreadsheet shows—running lines at dawn, dragging 700-pound bulls into the boat, and still staring at a thin check. He lays out a straightforward fix: align harvest windows with warm weather, consider a spring season to selectively take dominant bull gators in daylight, and set fair constraints on farm output to stop the annual market choke. We dig into the ecology behind the opinion—growth rates, digestive thresholds, pressure avoidance, and why big bulls act like mature whitetails holding to deep, quiet water. The goal isn’t more chaos; it’s better balance for habitat, breeding females, and public safety.

Along the way, you’ll hear a jaw-dropping story of wrestling a 12-footer boat-side, the decision to walk away from TV rather than stage scenes, and what it means to keep tradition alive when social media turns shortcuts into fame. If you care about conservation, tags, quotas, and the future of wild harvest in Louisiana, this conversation connects the dots between biology, policy, and the people who still work the swamp.

If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who loves real fieldcraft, and leave a review telling us whether you’d back a spring season for selective bulls.

What if the quietest move you make is the one that matters most? We sit down with Isome Sapp from Trophy Hunting Blinds to explore how a simple idea—windows that open silently in any weather—evolved into a full system that solves noise, scent, and comfort without gimmicks. Drawing on decades of outfitting experience, we look at why hunters miss shots in real life and how a felt-lined aluminum track, five percent tint, and thoughtful ergonomics give you room to adjust, film, and shoot without getting busted.

We break down the build from the ground up: LP composite siding that shrugs off water and time, a 30-year rubber roof that kills rain noise, and tight seals that keep scent inside and drafts out. The seven-foot octagon with 24-inch windows provides true 360-degree visibility, so you stop fidgeting and start observing. Field tests include gusty days with deer feeding at 20 yards, dry interiors after ice-storm hauling, and long sits that feel more like a plan than a punishment. Whether you’re bowhunting a food plot or running a camera on a tripod, the interior space, carpet, and insulation make all-day patience possible.

Access and customization matter just as much. We cover wood and metal stands at practical heights, inside-opening doors for safety, and options like double handrails, wide doors, and ramps for wheelchair users. Outfitters can specify window heights for seated bow shots or standing rifle setups, and re-order the same spec every time. Behind the scenes, lean manufacturing and smart jigs keep the fit and finish high while pricing stays fair—earning trust from hunters who’ve tried to DIY and from guides who need durable, quiet blinds that just work.

Ready to rethink your hide? Hear the design choices, the real-world tests, and why so many hunters switch after one sit. If you enjoy the show, subscribe, share with a buddy who lives for the rut, and leave a quick review so more hunters can find it.

A cold front is rolling in and the plan is set: finish a final Arkansas public land rifle hunt, then head to Illinois to meet the rut head-on with fresh cameras, a new trailer, and enough tags to make camp hum. We break down the gritty parts no one likes to admit—nerves at full draw, the difference between a 120 and a 160 staring you down, and how aging eyes and reading glasses mess with bow sights—then lay out the small choices that lead to clean shots and real results.

The hunt has a star: the Big Six, a mature buck that’s outsmarted us for three seasons. He’s shifted to creek bottoms, hugged a corner with neighbor pressure, and barely daylighted once. We sketch a realistic path to success: keep him centered, wait for the rut to loosen his guard, or slip close to the bed for a midday window. Mixed in are the stories that keep a camp together—mailman chases to rescue gear deliveries, e-bike wipeouts, and a lost Sitka luggage saga that sparks a frank talk about why premium layers sometimes make all the difference when it’s cold, wet, and you get one shot.

Standards start ambitious and evolve with intel. Day one we talk 130 and up; day three we’re reading scrape lines and wind shifts and calling audibles based on what the cameras and the does tell us. We set a simple rule for accountability: draw blood or even cut hair and your hunt is over until the track job is done. There’s room here for new bowhunters and veterans alike, with crossbows in the mix for confidence and humane shots when the stakes are high and the heart rate spikes. After the rut push, we pivot to ducks and then back to boats and Road to Pro fishing, because the outdoor calendar never really slows down.

If you love practical deer tactics, real camp talk, and the rush of chasing a personal best when the weather flips, this one hits home. Tune in, share it with your hunting crew, and drop a comment with your pass-or-shoot number for a mid-rut buck. And if you’re enjoying the show, subscribe, leave a review, and hit the bell so you don’t miss what happens when the Big Six finally slips up.

The grind behind a flawless camo finish is real, and we’re finally ready to show you why our GORE™ OPTIFADE™ Marsh and Timber camouflage patterns boats look the way you always wanted them to. We share how scaling stencils to a full hull changes everything, why color tuning on big surfaces is brutal, and what it took to make a factory paint job that actually matches your Sitka kit. If you’ve been settling for solid colors because patterned boats never lined up, that compromise ends here—Marsh is right behind Timber for those open-water and coastal hunts.

We also pull back the curtain on a tight, 100-piece run of custom RNT Mondo calls. Clean bone colorway, crisp branding, and the kind of exclusivity collectors hunt down all year. These calls drew a crowd even during the build, and we’ve got fun twists planned around serial numbers, giveaways, and how to snag one before they disappear. Think heirloom gear you’ll still be proud of a decade from now, whether it lives on your lanyard or your shelf.

Safety isn’t an afterthought. Our new life jackets match your camo and fit like something you won’t rip off mid-run. Once you dial the straps, they stay put, go on without twists, and use an auto-inflate trigger you can trust. At $239.99, you get real comfort, solid construction, and a look that blends with your boat instead of clashing. We round things out with rugged bag boards built for camp life, plus fresh hats, hoodies, and shirts hitting the gear shop. Inventory moves fast, so keep your eyes on the drop.

Want the details first, the giveaways, and the limited releases? Follow along, subscribe, and leave a review to tell us which piece you’re chasing next. Your feedback decides what we build next—come be part of it.

Joseph Phariss of Wildlife ReCreation Taxidermy Studio breaks down how he hunts 1v1—wind, beds, rub lines, game camera patterns—and why big, old deer almost never stroll into feed. That same discipline shows up at the bench: he tans in-house, flesh-thins hides until a flashlight glows through the nose and lips, turns ears and nose pads inside out, and sets glass eyes with precise lid contact and correct pupil rotation. He installs a realistic septum as standard, adds or restores antler character with epoxy and stain when needed, and matches color with airbrush nuance so the final piece reads as alive from across the room and under close inspection.

We get practical too: how to cape with extra length so pedestal wall mounts stay an option; why clean, client-friendly shops matter; and how communication—photo updates at each step—builds trust. Joseph shares an elk antler repair plan using pinned structure, re-sculpted girth, and careful color blending, then goes beyond the fix to clean, touch up, and present the mount as a complete showcase. From whiskey-barrel pedestals and marble bases to corner placements and euro mounts with creative finishes, he designs for the room, not just the rack, so every trophy fits a home and tells a story.

If you care about quality taxidermy, hunting strategy, and honest timelines, this conversation is for you. Tap play to learn what separates “mounted” from “lifelike,” hear Joseph’s tips for protecting capes and caring for mounts, and see why service-first shops earn lifelong customers. If you enjoy this, subscribe, share it with a buddy who chases big deer, and leave a comment with the detail you notice first—eyes, nose, or antlers?

The river might be choppy, but the vision is clear: we bring Noah and Lauren from Rowdy Creek Outdoors into the studio to chart how a loud, hilarious sandbar scene turns into stories with real weight. We start where it all began—accessible racing that feels like a duck hunt on water—then tackle what separates a fair lane from a bad one, why 660 feet matters, and how one over-trimmed heartbeat can write a whole afternoon’s narrative. The banter is sharp, but the blueprint is sharper.

From there, we lean into the pivot that has us most excited: Rowdy Creek’s next chapter in bowhunting and short-form documentary. Think two-minute profiles that slow the energy, pull focus on the people behind the boats, and capture the real work between highlight clips. Along the way, we swap misses and lessons—string-jumping does, angle math from tree stands, and the difference between convenience targets and 3D deer that train your eye for real shots. Ethics, patience, and clean exits take center stage without killing the fun.

Then the wildcard: golf. We sketch formats inspired by YouTube golf, brainstorm ridiculous stakes, and laugh about high socks and “best ball I’ve ever hit” moments. But the crossover is legit—pacing, feel, composure, and course management echo the discipline that makes a race fair and a hunt ethical. Add in a gear detour—Canon vs Sony, editing flow, who actually gets to touch the camera—and you’ve got a full picture of how a rowdy brand grows up without going corporate.

We wrap with a plan: play nine, then set Lauren up for her first deer. Racing roots, bowhunting craft, golf chaos—one day, one crew, one evolving story. If you love outboard racing, DIY short films, ethical archery, or just want to watch a team raise their game while keeping the jokes, hit play, subscribe, and drop us a comment with what you want to see next.

The Wreakin' Havoc Outdoors crew recounts their recent hunting trip to Canada where they experienced incredible duck and goose hunting with limits filled in record time, facing unexpected challenges along the way.

• Hunting in Canada produced massive numbers of ducks and geese compared to hunting in Arkansas
• Unexpectedly fierce mosquitoes required special "Jungle Juice" repellent that felt like oil when applied
• First evening resulted in filling limits of 70+ birds in just 23 minutes
• Travel issues included sleeping in airports, rental car problems, and lost luggage
• Hunting pressure in Canada was virtually non-existent compared to the war zone of Arkansas during season
• The group had shooting struggles initially but improved dramatically by the final day
• Discussions about upcoming deer season and potential friendly competition for biggest buck
• Conversations about bow equipment led to spirited debate between Matthews and Hoyt users
• Planning to drive rather than fly for next year's Canada trip to avoid travel complications

Want to see more mature bucks during daylight hours this season? Clifton Denny from On Your Own Outdoors reveals game-changing tactics that fly in the face of conventional deer hunting wisdom.

The most eye-opening revelation? Mature bucks aren't actually "going nocturnal" - they're simply responding to patterns hunters unknowingly establish. Clifton explains how the common practice of filling feeders after work at 5-6pm is precisely why your target buck only appears on camera at night. By shifting your feeding schedule to 10pm and changing your bait type right before hunting, you create the perfect scenario for daylight encounters.

The conversation unveils the power of "fat lines" - those mysterious thicker contour lines on topographical maps that consistently mark high deer activity zones. What started as a theory has been field-tested with remarkable success, with hunters reporting mature buck sightings exactly where these terrain features appear on maps. Clifton's comprehensive breakdown of this approach gives listeners a significant advantage for early season success.

Beyond technical strategies, the episode dives into fascinating observations about deer behavior during velvet-shedding period, bachelor group dispersal, and critical early-season food sources like persimmon and honey locust trees. The discussion even addresses regional hunting differences, with practical advice for Arkansas hunters looking to adapt their skills to different terrains.

Whether you're a weekend warrior or a dedicated trophy hunter, these practical, field-tested approaches will transform your early season strategy. After implementing these tactics, you'll never look at your hunting property - or your trail camera results - the same way again.
