In this episode of the Antler Up Podcast, I sit down with Tom Fleisher (@PhillyBurbsBowHunter) to talk about the challenges and rewards of suburban hunting in Pennsylvania. Tom shares how his early hunting experiences shaped his passion for the sport and how Pennsylvania’s 5C area offers unique opportunities for deer hunters. We dive into the importance of strategic planning, patience, and responsible deer management in urban and suburban settings, where shot placement and ethical hunting are critical. Tom also highlights the value of building relationships with property owners, navigating new state game lands, and fostering a sense of community through his Philly Burbs Bow Hunters page.

Beyond hunting strategy, we discuss the role of technology—like cell cameras, which can be both an asset and a distraction—along with how harsh winters impact deer movement. Tom also shares insights on hunting gear, from the benefits of heavy arrows for better penetration to the importance of constant tinkering for improved performance. If you’re interested in suburban hunting, refining your setup, or just looking to hear great hunting stories, this episode is packed with valuable insights!

So, grab your gear, sit back, and join us on this episode as we Antler Up with Tom Fleisher! Stay tuned, stay safe, and Antler Up!
