Sportsmen's Empire - Whitetail Hunting

On this episode of the Nine Finger Chronicles, Dan talks with Matt Rose, a Missouri native, about locating and pattering a mature buck. Matt breaks down the area of the state he lives and hunts in, the deer density on his farms, and what he considers a successful season. Then, the guys get in to a a conversation about three years worth of history on a buck they named "Slingshot". Matt talks about about where this buck was living, what his annual pattern was, all the way down to the specific drainage he was using to access a green bean field. If you listen close, you will hear a serious bowhunter get really detailed about the strategy he used to hunt this once is a lifetime buck. Enjoy and share!

Hey everyone, welcome to episode 192 of the Antler Up Podcast!

On this week's episode I was joined by PA native Steve Sherk Jr. to kick off the PA state wide opener week! This is the second year in a row that Steve has kicked off the season for us. If you are like me, when Steve speaks you have to listen! He is one of the best out there when it comes to providing helpful information and has year after year success in the PA woods.  This was a really fun episode to record because we discussed some plans for this upcoming season, Steve’s ability to adapt to hunting pressure, potential outlook for the 2023 season, timing your hunts and a whole lot more!

We begin this episode by hearing Steve share what he is doing to finalize things for this upcoming season with more prep work with cameras. Steve discusses what hunting means to him and the impact it has made on his life. Following this up Steve has been able to adapt to the hunting pressure. With more great information out there Steve has changed some of his strategies to better his odds on a PA mature buck. With the low kill numbers, mild winter Steve believes in his area this upcoming year can be a good one. We dive into food options, his 3 C’s and his top 3 rules when it comes to hunting those big ole cautious bucks! I greatly appreciate Steve for all that he has done and is doing for the hunting community and can’t wait to see his success and get a chance to catch up with him again! Be sure to check out his Mountain Buck University YouTube channel and his Sherk’s Guide Service! Enjoy this fun episode and see you next week!

As an outdoorsman, why do you do what you do? Why do you care about the things you care about? Better yet, why should anyone else care about what you care about? Is the outdoor lifestyle, and all its accoutrements, one that's worth preserving, promoting, and even passing on? These questions, at their core, are worth wrestling with, and they inform the conversation on this week's episode of the Wisconsin Sportsman Podcast. 

In this episode of the Wisconsin Sportsman Podcast, Josh & Pierce talk with Robert Rosenberger about the intersection between mentorship, hunting, and conservation. Robert, with decades of experience engrossed in Wisconsin's outdoor culture, is a wealth of knowledge, wisdom gained by experience, and to top it all off, he's a salt of the earth kind of guy. This is very likely the richest and most profound episode of the Wisconsin Sportsman so far. We hope you enjoy!

 In this week’s [UNCENSORED] podcast by GoWild presented by GunBroker.com, we talk all about the most magical time of the year..hunting season! We open up with Jacob telling us about his first day in the woods which didn’t go exactly as planned. Running late to the woods it seemed like everything was being thrown at him. He tells us about driving through a complete downpour that eased up right as he pulled into the woods, unfortunately it caught up to him and unfortunately ruined the entire hunt so instead he pulled the plug and decided to wait until the next day.

Next up Brayden goes in depth on his saddle setup for this upcoming season. He covers his new pack for carrying in his saddle equipment. He completely changed his setup for this season with a unique way to carry his climbing sticks in so they aren’t constantly in the way which allows him to go in with a smaller pack. He then dives into going over getting his bow back after being completely restrung this summer. He needed to shoot his bow around a hundred times before the final fine tune, can you guys guess how many times he shot it on the first day out? Let’s just say..mistakes were made. The second time out he realized a major difference in his bow that could’ve caused some really serious issues if not fixed before season! Crisis majorly averted.

Dan covers another trip scouting to Land Between the Lakes in Western Kentucky. He saw a good bit of deer sign but not a ton of rubs or scrapes in his first location to scout. The second spot looked a little more promising and he felt very good about it. Natural water sources, and on the edge of an old overgrown field it definitely has all the ingredients needed for a recipe of success.

Brandon Travis joins Michigan Wild this week with Nate for a great episode. Brandon just got back from a successful bear hunt in the UP. He was able to get an awesome black bear with his bow, all DIY. 

Brandon is also a die hard bowhunter and has the opportunity to chase whitetails all fall. Like Nate, Brandon hunts public, private and out of state through the fall. Throughout the episode the guys talk about their mindset depending on where they are hunting, time of year, and past history.

 Brandon has been filming and editing for Vital Shot Productions for many years. You can find some of his hunts and many others on Youtube, a few local channels in MI, and the Pursuit Channel.
