Sportsmen's Empire - Whitetail Hunting

On this week's Deer Season Special Bonus episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman we chat with Lane Housner from In The Presence YouTube channel. Lane is a hard working guy who tries to devote as much time as possible to hunting in the fall. There are fewer places he won't hunt then will - it's all about the experiences and the chase. Lane and Mitch discuss making drives with groups of hunters - both with archery and firearms. Lane also tells the story of his girlfriend's first buck from last season. And of course, there is plenty of talk about grinding through the rut!

On today’s show with GunBroker.com, we’re talking black rifles and green eyes, otherwise known as night vision. We start out talking about the first true generation of night vision – the starlight scope. Usually used in special purpose missions, they looked like a giant spotlight and mounted generally on an M1 Carbine. Thankfully, we’ve made huge advancements through today’s 3rd generation night vision. Make sure to listen in to this episode brought to you by GunBroker.com, to hear an in-depth conversation on night vision and thermal optics!

Next, we dive into night vision hunting which has skyrocketed in popularity for game like wild hogs. Make sure you check into your local game laws however, because this isn’t legal everywhere and there are some rules you need to make sure you follow. We also dive into the difference between green and white phosphor, which have major differences between them. White phosphor provides a large jump in optics with visuals being way more crisp compared to green phosphor. We also discuss the differences between night vision and thermal optics. Night vision optics absolutely cannot be used during the daytime due to how they process light, but thermals absolutely can be used during the daytime. However, your image will certainly not have as much clarity on your targets if the temperature differences aren’t as high like during the nighttime. A huge use case for thermal optics is in the recovery of game animals. Thermal optics provide terrific blood tracking capabilities that can help provide trackers with fantastic recovery efforts, including seeing the downed animal.

One of the downfalls of night vision is that depth perception gets thrown off quickly. However, with that being said, a lot of that can be trained out with serious training time and as always, it’s way better to have night vision if your enemies do not! Closing out, Allen dives into the different options for night vision at GunBroker.com. He covers a multitude of different options from the cheap end to however much you’d like to spend, there are options out there for you whether you want to outfit your helmet or your firearm.

Hey everyone, welcome to episode 202 of the Antler Up Podcast!

On this week's episode I was joined by two PA brothers Andrew and Doug Huegel. I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation with these guys. Andrew owns Huegel Taxidermy out of Lebanon & Lancaster County. Doug on the other hand owns Huegel Design Co. where he does logo design, branding and illustrations. Both are extremely talented individuals and avid hunters. We have a fun conversation about building their brands, and growing as hunters!  

We led things off by talking about how Andrew and Doug got into hunting since they had a unique experience with it. We get some fun hunting conversations going and one that I found interesting was hearing from Andrew about when business picks up for him at his taxidermy. He shares how he correlates the success with weather, etc. Doug shares the improvements that he has made regarding his mobile set up and trying to get his first PA buck this year. Again, we get into these topics and a whole lot more in this episode! Stay safe in the woods and enjoy this fun episode and see you next week! 

Thanks again for all the support and best of luck out there and Antler Up!

On this episode of the Nine Finger Chronicles, Dan talks with Ohio native Zach Johns about his recent success hunting a huge double drop tine buck. Zach breaks down the block of timber that this buck would occasionally cruise through, the surrounding farms in regards to hunting pressure, and where he believed this buck was bedding on a neighboring farm. Zach also explains that he didn't recognize this buck until after he shot him and that his buddy missed him the previous year. Now a DOUBLE DROP GIANT, the game was on. Zach needed the right wind and to make some minor adjustment to his treestand locations. The rest is history!
