Sportsmen's Empire - Whitetail Hunting

Hey everyone, welcome to episode 182 of the Antler Up Podcast!

On this week's episode I was joined by First Lite’s Whitetail Category Manager Gregg Farrell. This is Gregg’s fourth time being a guest on the show, and with each appearance, I continue to learn every time he is on. Gregg lives, breathes and sleeps all things whitetail. I don’t know about you, but right now in the middle of July I am ready to be in full swing season mode. Gregg and I kick things off in this episode catching up a little bit. Following that we dive right into what Gregg is doing and what he shares I believe is such a great perspective on how things have evolved for him when it comes to preparing for the whitetail season! So for this podcast episode we get Gregg’s preseason whitetail checklist covering what he is doing right now and the rest of the time leading up to the start of his whitetail season. 

When it comes to planning for the whitetail season, Gregg shares his upcoming plans for how he plans out his hunts. Obviously being the First Lite Whitetail Category Manager has a huge role in this, Gregg still gets a lot of time to hunt his property in WI. Following this discussion we dive into what the months of July and August look like. From prioritizing non-hunting items, developing game plans by e-scouting and being able to get boots on the ground. Gregg makes sure by the time the season rolls around that all his gear is dialed in and ready to go. Then when the season kicks off, he uses historical data and reads current sign to make a move. A really fun chat with a good friend and again someone who just LOVES hunting whitetails. Check it out and let us know what you think! 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 week's episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman we catch up with Al Tomechko from Vitalize Seed. After discussing some big projects that took place during the off season at Al's place, we dive into Vitalize seed. Vitalize uses a two-pass planting system with the summer mix called "Nitro-boost" and the fall mix called "Carbonload". Al breaks down the plant species used in Carbonload and how they work together to provide the best food plot possible.

There are hundreds of different food plot blends on the market and thousands of different opinions. Some would disagree that certain plant species cannot be mixed into the same blend. However, with proper seed balance and ratio, diverse mixes can produce maximum tonnage that work together rather than compete. Al follows soil biology principles when he and his team develop seed blends. Diversity allows better nutrient exchange between plants, and wildlife can tell the difference. Tune in to learn more about the "why" and "how" of Carbonload; you might want to consider planting it this year!
