Early season whitetails. Some people hate 'em. Some people love 'em. Everyone agrees that deer hunting early season can be a challenge. While it's true that success rates in the early season are lower than say the first week of November, the early season really does provide a great opportunity to arrow a great buck while others are still waiting for it to "feel like fall".

The challenges of hunting the early season have led many to overthink what's actually pretty simple. Notice I didn't say it's easy. It can be really, really tough. But it is simple. And in this episode of the How to Hunt Deer Podcast, Josh talks with Tony Peterson about some very simple and proven tactics for bowhunting early season whitetails. Enjoy!
