Sportsmen's Empire - Whitetail Hunting

In this episode of the Wisconsin Sportsman Podcast, Josh and Pierce talk with Sam Bilhorn of Whitetail Partners about his strategy for getting on pre-rut bucks. 

Sam is the founder of Whitetail Partners, a whitetail habitat and property design company. Since it's inception a few years ago, Whitetail Partners now has five regional design experts who cover the entire eastern half of the United States. As a guy that knows deer, the pre-rut is Sam's favorite time to target specific mature bucks on his property. In this episode, Sam shares his thoughts on pre-rut strategy including his favorite kinds of setups for public and private land, how weather impacts buck movement during the pre-rut, and how he sets up whitetail hunting parcels to capitalize on pre-rut activity.

Tony Hill with Find it Fred joins Michigan Wild this week. In this episode Nate and Tony get into some hound talk, which includes chasing bears and tracking whitetails. Tony grew up in a family of hunters and was always outdoors at a young age. He tagged along with his older brothers and dad chasing rabbits with his beagles and whitetails up north at their deer camp. About 5 years ago Tony decided to get into deer tracking and then soon after he got more hounds for chasing bears, coons, and coyotes.  

Through this episode the guys cover hunting bears with Tony's dogs and all the dedication it takes to have a successful pack. It's a challenge Tony loves and the reward of seeing a bear in a tree and his dog's work is worth the effort. Nate and Tony finish the podcast talking about deer tracking with his hound Fred. Nate has first hand experience seeing Fred work and really appreciates having Tony as a reliable resource to help recover deer. 

Overall a great episode between buddies who both have a passion for whitetails and watching their dogs work in the field.

Today’s show opens with us talking about the group's most recent outdoor adventures. We go over our recent weekend fishing with Charles Wesley Godwin. While he may have left us thinking that none of us know how to fish, he let us know it was a much needed break from touring and interviewing after releasing his most recent album Family Ties. Dan dives into his recent scouting trip preparing for his hunt at Land Between the Lakes. His crazy trail camera experiences have continued over the past week. He put some good miles on his boots going to check his camera, maybe even an extra mile that he didn’t have to put in. He decided to hang a second camera, but the camera woes hit again. Pro-tip - don’t trust Amazon branded batteries. Listen in to this episode Sponsored by GunBroker.com to hear all the possible things that can go wrong when checking your trail camera!

Next up Brayden goes into his recent weekend public hunting for whitetail. Complete with an awesome set of oaks to hunt, perfect wind, perfect weather, it was building up to be an awesome morning in the woods. Unfortunately, the morning hunt didn’t go as planned, but he and Phil had another plan to hopefully induce some success. They headed to an old tree orchard with perfect lanes, taking it slowly looking for deer. His first time ever hunting for whitetail on the ground produced some heart pounding moments. Make sure to tune in to see exactly how it all panned out. 

Closing out Brad talks about his recent weekend deer hunting. He had his slowest day yet, and still managed to see seven deer! Deer after deer after deer showed up on his afternoon sit. A few small bucks showed up with a few does including a real nice six-point that is going to be a stud in a few years. He held tight and then even his target buck showed up, make sure you listen in to see how crazy his evening got! You definitely won’t want to miss this one.
