Sportsmen's Empire - Whitetail Hunting

On this episode of the Nine Finger Chronicles, Dan catches up with Jeremy Dinsmore for the first hunting B.S. Session of 2023. Jeremy is the host of the Antler Up podcast right here on the Sportsmen's Empire Podcast Network. Dan and Jeremy kick off the episode by discussing if the reality of their 2022 hunting season matched their expectations at the beginning of the year. The guys talk about their out of state hunting failures and break down what they feel they could do better to find success for next season.

In true B.S. fashion, the two talk about how they haven't necessarily lost their passion for hunting but it seems to be changing the older they get. Dan expresses how he doesn't like the direction mainstream social media and content creators seem to be taking deer hunting in regards to hunter recruitment and retention. This is a really great episode to kick off the new year, enjoy!

On this week's episode Dimitri and I were joined by Ian Senior. Ian has been on the podcast before and if you didn’t get a chance to listen to that episode I’ll give you a quick run down on Ian. Dimitri and Ian grew up together and have been hunting together for a long time. You’ll hear references within this episode but Ian does not have social media and when you hear your friends talk about good hunters and guys that just straight up fill tags and no one really knows them…well Ian fits that bill to the T! Ian is a great guy and a lot of fun to be around so I was really looking forward to this podcast discussion.

We briefly talked about how Ian took his son out hunting this archery and rifle season for the first time with the mentor license here in PA. Then we continued with our out of state discussions by having Ian and Dimitri break down their entire Ohio hunting trip. Right before we dove into the Ohio trip discussion, Ian started his 2022 season at an outfitter in Canada for a bear hunt. He was successful in bringing two bears home from that trip. Following that we get into talking about some Ohio whitetails. From their planning stage, to when they scouted, getting a campground pegged down and finally getting the chance to chase some Ohio whitetails during the week of Halloween. Some really good takeaways in this episode from the different terrain features they hunted, the challenges they faced, what kind of sign they were finding or lack thereof and getting a chance to fill their tags.

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

This week Paul and Andrew sit down with Chris Powell of the Houndsman XP podcast. Chris is

an avid outdoorsman who’s spent many years working with hounds in the pursuit of game.

Chris has spent time chasing bears, racoons, cougars and more all while working closely with his

four legged hunting partners. Chris breaks down the ideology of hunting with hounds, the

politics involved, and the overall hunting comradery behind the sport of hunting with hounds.

Paul and Andrew haven’t been up to much besides holiday festivities with the families. The

Buckeye game was a real shot to the you know what, so we won’t talk about that. Spent some

time with the families and our buddy Jacob from GoWild down at the Great wolf lodge. Fun

times had by all. Paul is gearing up for the last push of the season on a lottery property he has

access too.

The boys are headed to ATA soon and will hopefully bring back lots of new and fun things to

discuss. Enjoy the show and have a great week!

Jonathan and Dan discuss the highs and lows from this hunting season including a late recovery on a mule deer and some close calls with bull elk. At the time of the recording Jonathan had one day remaining of his archery elk hunt. Fingers crossed…

In this episode, Jon Teater (Whitetail Landscapes) and Mark Haslam (Southeast Whitetail) discuss upcoming land management projects and get into the details of analyzing hunting season data. Jon discusses leaving trail cameras to collect data. Mark discusses his land management tactics that have allowed eight mature bucks on his property. Mark explains local hunting pressure and dog hunting for deer. Mark explains how to minimize the impact of dog hunting on his property. Jon explains the best time of year to consult. 

Mark explains post season analysis data that he is most focused on, that many hunters overlook. Fetal aging, in concert with weight, tooth wear aging, fat content is critical information that allows much knowledge of the herd status and health to support critical property management decisions. Mark explains postseason planning, such as timber contracts, discing, burning, timber stand improvement, and food plots. Mark explains the first consideration he believes any landowner should make before any decision is made to improve a hunting property. 

Mark discusses his predator focus this year and what his plans are to support turkey population improvements. Mark details the steps he is taking to improve his property, from cutovers to planting. Mark explains food plot planting and essentials, while considering neighbors that benefit your overall strategy. Jon discusses how to get the highest return on investment and the problems with those that are unable to use fire on the landscape. Mark explains some key food plot considerations that will change your food plot game.

This week on the Oklahoma Outdoors Podcast, John has one of his most special guests of all time on, his wife Mackenzie. John and Mackenzie talk about the real life struggles of balancing hunting and family. After four years of marriage, and adding a baby into the mix this year, the two talk about what they do well, and areas they still need to improve upon when it comes to John's hunting addiction. Mackenzie knew John was a big hunter before they got married, but honestly had no idea what she was getting into on a full year around basis. Not to mention how it would get even more complicated by adding a baby into the mix.

Mackenzie talks about expectations, and how she has learned to be more upfront with John before the season even gets underway. John and Mackenzie have both learned how important communication is, and the more heads up the better. Mackenzie is a planner, while John is much more go with the flow. They have learned over time that the more they can plan ahead, the better it is for both of them. John has also had to learn that a baby really does change things, and that sometimes you really have to take a step back and think about your priorities in life.

On this Episode of Huntavore it's just you and Nick kicking off 2023. He goes into detail about a specific hind quarter cut, the eye round. What are its characteristics, how tender is it, how it reacts to cooking, and chats about 2 successful dishes with this cut. Hope you're in the mood for asian. Secondly, he touches on how small game is going to be a priority here while there is not ice yet, and elaborates about a “Stocktail” that can add a savory twist to your cocktail hour. Get your appetite ready for this episode of Huntavore.

This episode is Nick breaking down the eye round cut from a hind leg. The eye round is a wonderful cut to use when used correctly. Long muscle grain, and very lean, the eye round is best treated as a whole cut or in the case of his two dishes, best sliced, marinaded, then seared. On a scale of tenderness, Nick gives it a 3 out of 4 for being quite tender. For cooking variability he gives it 2 out of 4, high quick heat is what we are going for. Eye round serves as an almost perfect cut for a couple asian dishes. A ramen bowl, that also uses your stock to create a broth, and a mongolian venison stir fry that was an absolute grand slam with Nick’s kids. Here is the blog recipe for the Venison Ramen: https://sportsmensempire.com/blog/wildgame-ramen

Nick is also attempting to bring “stocktails” back into the cocktail hour. In the 60’s along with the Bloody Mary, two drinks were made with their base being broth or stock. The Bull Shot and Bloody Bull were stock and vodka, seasoned with salt and pepper, celery salt, and tabasco. Nick made the switch to venison stock and adobo sauce and gave it the new name the “Buck Shot”. For a play on tracking your deer, the “Blood Trail” is the Buck shot, served with frozen tomato juice or Bloody Mary Mix. as the cubes melt, they release their flavor and spice, and as they melt further, the flavor gets stronger. And just like trailing your hit buck, it finishes with a lot of excitement. Look for both the Stir Fry and Stocktail recipes to be posted soon at the Sportsmen’s Empire Blog.
