Sportsmen's Empire - Whitetail Hunting

Well folks, the forecast looks clear, all the snow has been shoveled, and it's certainly been cold enough for the last couple weeks most of our lakes and ponds have frozen over. That can only mean one thing... ice fishing! 

In this weeks episode, Pierce hops on the line with Kyle Tyree of YouTube's viral fishing channel, Wisconsin Fisherman. Kyle has been ice fishing for nearly his entire life and doing it with a camera by his side for over a decade. And let me tell you now, this dude knows ice fishing! Kyle fills Pierce in on everything you need to know about ice fishing in the badger state as they cover gear, technology, etiquette, scouting, finding fish, why fish are where they are, what they're eating and so much more. Whether you're a seasoned ice fisherman or a total newbie, there's great information for you not only in this episode, but also on Kyle's YouTube channel as well!

Be sure to follow along with Kyle's adventures @wisconsin_fisherman on Instagram, Facebook and YouTube, and when you plan your trip up north this summer, book a trip with Wisconsin Fisherman Guide Service to spend a day in the boat with Kyle and have an awesome time!

In this episode, Jon Teater (Whitetail Landscapes) and Perry Battin (Drury Outdoors) discuss deer management, harvest strategy to assess deer numbers to improve quality habitats and grow larger bucks. Jon discusses time of year and winter severity indexes that impact deer in the north country. Jon discusses carry capacity and what significance this has on our deer populations, the mouths we are trying to feed and how to evaluate disease issues that reduce our deer numbers accordingly.

Perry breaks down the volume of food on the farm he manages, numbers of deer on individual farms and assessment on the volume of deer and the right approach to evaluating the number of deer. Perry talks about buck to doe ratios, doe, and fawn. Perry discusses drought in the Midwest, Southwest, West, South of the United States and the impact on deer and antler growth. Jon explains techniques to evaluating deer numbers and how to relate that to the properties we hunt. Jon explains how drone imagery may paint a false picture and the relative deer numbers change daily. Jon explains GIS options for vegetative plant value assessment.

Perry explains food plots and other food options to increase deer numbers on the landscape. Perry discusses hunting observation and the method the Drury’s are using to collect deer numbers. Perry discusses EHD and how that has impacted the overall deer population. Jon and Perry discuss doe to fawn ratios and recruitment rates for deer areas across the US.

Perry and Jon discuss social stress and the impact on deer herds when numbers are high. Perry discusses the real issue surrounding antler potential and some of the likely factors that impact deer on the farms in Missouri. Perry discusses lowering the population and buck to doe ratios, and the results of quality deer and related hunting. Perry explains how disease has potential to reduce deer numbers and the net result on the herd and the potential for bigger bucks down the road.

Today’s show opens up with Brayden & Derrick talking about their recent duck hunting trip out at Ballard WMA. The crew ended up getting their number one blind from the draw so everyone was pumped to get out there. Unfortunately, like most duck hunters have experienced this year it was a fairly slow day. Unseasonably warm weather has kept the migration from really kicking in this season, but as the day progressed the group had a little bit of success! Tune in to this episode Sponsored by GunBroker.com to hear if they got skunked or not!

Day two of the quota hunt opened up with an absolute rager of a storm. Hard rain, on and off lighting, and high winds made for a somewhat miserable hunt. We made a plan to wait a bit before heading out but then made our way to the blind just shortly before shooting light. Shooting light opened and ducks were absolutely everywhere. Group after group checked out the spread until finally a group came close enough to shoot at. We pulled up to shoot and Brayden finally got to kill his first duck! Toughing out the weather definitely ended up as a great idea for the group because the hunting picked up as the day progressed. Listen in to hear how the hunt turned out for the GoWild crew!

John is back this week with another great episode of the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast. This week, John takes a little stroll down memory lane to look back at another amazing year in the great outdoors. From chasing turkeys with a bow in Nebraska to hang and hunts after giant Iowa Whitetails, it was a year he will not soon forget. Though he ended the season with a few tags still in his pocket, John had a great year on his old stomping grounds in Oklahoma. It's hard to complain about a year that involves tagging two mature bucks totalling almost 300 inches of antler.

After a look to the past, John then turns his attention to the future. He has been keeping an upcoming fall hunt a secret for quite some time, but it is now time to let the cat out of the bag. John plans to shift his focus in a slightly different direction in 2024, and a direction he has been pulled in for quite some time. All these plans and more are revealed in this episode so be sure to listen up!

The Ruth Brothers joined Nate on Michigan Wild this week. Jeremiah and Treyton joined Nate in Wyoming for a spring black bear hunt in 2023. It was a great camp and they all three shot bears and have kept in touch since then. Nate dives right in wanting a season update and hearing the story of Treyton's buck. Which leads into the grind of a season Jeremiah had and how he stayed persistent even through harsh conditions. 

The Ruth Brothers also make a point of traveling out of state every year and sometimes multiple states. This past year they had successful bear, turkey, elk and pheasant hunts. Throughout the episode they break each hunt down and share the stories of their success. 

Over a great episode about family getting outside and sharing their passion for the outdoors. They also encourage people to give it a shot and have realistic expectations when they do go. They started small with Turkey hunts and have been hooked ever since.
