We cover everything from tactics, where to setup, calling strategies, timing of the rut, interesting stories and experiences we've had while hunting the rut.

Hopefully you're hunting but maybe you can find time while driving to your hunting property to give this one a listen.  Some of the tips in here might just help you bag that buck!

This week on the Ohio Huntsman Podcast we discuss how to get started in hunting.  We do our best to keep the conversation very basic in order to appeal to brand new outdoorsman; however,  if you are an experienced hunter we hope you will be able to use this as a tool to help introduce someone new to the outdoors.

On this week’s episode we discuss our favorite gear!  Since hunters tend to be very polarized on their gear, we decided to avoid the “required” gear (ex: Firearms, Bows, Tree Stands, etc.) and focus on the gear we don’t leave home without, any new/DIY gear we are trying this season, and favorite piece of gear UNDER $10.

On this week's episode we talk about bears in Ohio! We discuss the number of bears currently in Ohio, when we think they'll be opening a season here, the potential for Ohio to become a trophy bear state, and our thoughts around opening a lottery for a very limited number of tags to hunt the current Ohio bear population.

 

Here's a link to the video of the bear we mentioned during the show, it's good for a laugh!

This week on the Ohio Huntsman Podcast we discuss various hunting strategies associated with each “phase” of the whitetail season. We discuss what the whitetails primary focus is during each time of year which will allow you as a hunter to give yourself the best opportunity to not only see deer, but hopefully successfully fill your tag.

This week on the Ohio Huntsman Podcast we discuss our goals for the 2018 hunting season, We’ve got a lot of goals for the season, everything from Jeff wanting to finish the Ohio Squirrel Grand Slam to Jason wanting to trying deer heart for the first time, so follow along throughout the season to see how well we’re able to achieve them!

This week’s episode of the Ohio Huntsman Podcast is a special one, as we change up the format slightly and interview our first guest on the show.  We talk to Keith McNutt from Champaign County Whitetails Unlimited Chapter regarding a pheasant hunt that they put on for the youth in the area. The details of the hunt can be found in the interview; however, if you miss anything they are also available through the Champaign County Whitetails Unlimited Facebook page.  Keith also discusses a special hunt they are providing for a Logan County veteran that is also being provided by the Champaign County Whitetails Unlimited Chapter.

This week on the Ohio Huntsman Podcast we discuss the new bag limits on the majority of public land in the state of Ohio.  This is a very important topic for the public land deer hunter as it drastically decreases the number of antlerless deer that can be harvested on public land and also restricts the dates of harvest for antlerless deer.

Here is the list of the public lands where the new one doe regulation applies.
