The Element Hunting Podcast

PUBLIC PINS is the source for concise whitetail mapping and scouting knowledge in podcast format! Short, to the point, directed information that will improve your ability to convert what you see digital scouting for whitetail to quality in-person scouting and deer hunts.

In this episode we give a broad overview of the direction that this series will take. We establish the necessity for woodsmanship, the differences in "map scouting" and "boot scouting", we discuss what deer sign we place importance on, how we "pin" specific things we find in the woods, and color coordinating our icons by level of interest and location type.

There are names and places that are embedded in hunting lore; Fred Bear, Howard Hill, Milk River, Pike County. In Texas, we have the King Ranch. Known for its acreage, deer, and shady beginnings, The King Ranch is now one of the world leaders in Whitetail management. Mick was blessed to be the head biologist there for many years. In this episode we discuss biggest bucks, Nilgai, Quail management, High Fences, and hunting of course.

In this episode, we talk quite a bit about fishing this spring for crappie, catfish, sand bass (or white bass), and all sorts of panfish. Of course we talk about frying them up, and then learn that Jesse has obtained the proper permits to actually serve Bluegill and Redbreast in the restaurant! Then we dive deep into coastal fishing in the gulf and Cabo, followed by some talk on hogs and hunting to accompany the book discussion.

Huge Camo Review!

As requested, we decided to revisit an old popular podcast we did wayyy back in 2017 call "Less Dollars, More Bucks." We've learned a few things since then, and had quite a bit of trial and error. Honestly, we could probably cover this topic every year. There is always new experiences and knowledge we are gaining as we travel and hunt. Hopefully some of this information will be beneficial to you as you're planning out your SZN!

Topics Covered:

Access, Licenses, Bows, Arrows, Broadheads, Stands, Sights, States to hunt, Public and private land, Sandwiches, quitting tobacco, #prostaff, camo, and many others.

Jason Redd of Timber Ninja takes his knowledge of adventure sports, safety protocol, and martial arts and applies them to killing big mountain bucks! He's made the lightest and quietest sticks that we've ever messed with. He also like to chase big ol' Whitetails all over the country, especially in the mountain country of the Northeast. If you're interested in being more stealthy, mobile, and lethalI, I think you will learn a lot form this episode.

**DISCLAIMER**

The intro to this episode is long winded and slightly political, but still very relative to wildlife. If you'd like to skip that, fast forward to 20:51 to hear from Bill Winke. Thank you!

Bill Winke has become one of our all-time favorite folks we know in the deer hunting world. The man is kind, helpful, knowledgeable, and backs it up with stacks of racks! Recently, Bill has made some career moves as well as some big changes in the area he hunts. Along with that, he has been chronicling all of the bucks he has killed with a bow from all over the country. We decided it would be cool to get him on the show to give us some more detail on a few of these deer. We talk Whitetail from Colorado, Texas, Iowa, Kansas and more.
