Joining me again on the show is Shedding Light Outdoor member Josh Castle. Josh loves to hunt public land. And he has a knack for finding nice bucks. Yet on his first out of state whitetail hunt to Missouri, Josh had some struggles. A few plans didnt work out and that left Josh in a low point wondering where to go. He kept going and that led him to a new spot and his first ever, out of state buck. Incredible story with a great guy.

There's nothing like getting a call from your buddy right after dark telling you he's shot a buck. I got that call on Saturday night, October 16th from my good friend and Shedding Light Outdoors member Travis Shirer. Today he joins me on the show to unpack that story and all that went into it. Trav had to have shoulder surgery at the start of the year and wasn't sure if he'd ever shoot a bow again. Fortunately he was able to recover well and continued his 3 year streak of taking a buck in October. 

We hear that story and also unpack what Travis calls the "mobile corn strategy". It's a very fun episode and interview. 

Be sure to check out Shedding Light Outdoors on YouTube & Facebook for the full video!

It's not every day I get an email from a 12 year old asking to come on the podcast! Last week Sutton Sheehan reached out and said he loved the show and had some stories. I was pumped to have him on and hear his point of view on hunting and life. And he does a fantastic job. We talk Kentucky turkey and squirrel hunting along with his goal of taking his first whitetail this coming season. 

Good luck to all hunters out there and be safe!

This week on the show we are happy to have Justin Getshcel. We get into some fun whitetail stories. One in particular is about a season when things didnt go to plan and Justin wanted to give up. Yet he kept pressing on and was met with a reward...2 to be precise! Great conversation! Hope you enjoy!
