Sportsmen's Empire - Whitetail Hunting

On this episode of The Nomadic Outdoorsman, Dan talks with Brady Lene about what it takes to harvest big mule deer in South Dakota’s Badlands.

Brady Lene is a diehard hunter that lives in South Dakota. His military career has allowed him to experience many different states and the game that each offers but it wasn’t until he got stationed in South Dakota that he truly felt home. Since moving, Brady has picked up hunting antelope, whitetail, mule deer and even Black Hills turkey. This episode is filled with stories, tactics and Dan asks a lot of questions about hunting mule deer with a bow as they plan Dan’s first archery mule deer hunt this fall.

On today’s show with GunBroker.com, we’re at SHOT Show joined by Kevin Reese of Pulsar and Jeff Murray from Sightmark. We open the episode diving into thermal optics and the explosion in the outdoor scene over the last few years. A huge push came from predator hunting videos skyrocketing in popularity on YouTube, Instagram, and other venues. Predator and hog hunting gave outdoorsmen a way to utilize their year long hunting leases by giving hunters something to do during the off-season plus a way to keep the predator population in control. Make sure to tune into this episode presented by GunBroker.com to hear all about thermal optics from the view of Kevin and Jeff!

Closing out we dive into how much thermal optics have changed over the years. It wasn’t that long ago when thermal optics used to weigh more than your firearm did. Today’s thermal technology has shrunk dramatically which allows thermal hunters to be way more mobile than in days past. We discuss the difference between digital night vision and thermal, with Kevin’s opinion that almost everyone who tries thermal never wants to go back! While thermal and night vision alone are not cheap to get into, one of the good things is most of the optics if you invest in a good product truly do hold their value for when you want to upgrade in the future. Logan asks the guys their favorite thermal optic, the guys give the run-down of their favorite and why exactly they like it, you don’t want to miss this!

This week's episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman is quite a bit different from normal. Mitch rides solo and just talks about life during the winter months. To cut it truthfully, February sucks. Not a lot is happening if you're a deer hunter, and the reality is most of us do not have the ability to devote a lot of time to hunting, considering the months of neglect other things in life get while hunting season goes throughout fall.  

Most shows are doing a great job of keeping the fire lit for the upcoming season. Mitch envies them, because for many it's everything we have to keep scraping by sanely this time of year!  Mitch reflects on how the Pennsylvania Woodsman began, and discusses the difficulty and frustration experienced along the way. That begs the question, why is it here and where is it going? Don't worry, this episode isn't all doom and gloom. Just the reality that sometimes things get hard! So if February has been tough on you, you're not alone.
