This week we talk with Kenneth Thrall from Kifaru. Last year, the guys from the Fair Chase and Kenny headed to Wisconsin during the whitetail rut.

Coming from the West, this was Kenny's first time hunting out of a tree stand. The guys spent the week island hopping and looking for cruising bucks. Listen as we recap 2024, talk about the trip to Wisconsin, and talk about our hunting plans for 2025.

We were having so much fun that we decided to tack another few episodes onto our Whitetail Series.

We hate being cold so we decided to bring Aaron Ambur, president of TUO Gear, on this episode to talk about their new cold weather line, Nivor, and how deer hunters can stay warm when the temps drop.

We talk gear testing, layering, camo patterns and a ton of other whitetail stuff. Hope you enjoy!

In the final episode of our series, we reflect on the journey of becoming a better hunter. We’ve talked about everything from picking locations and strategies to gear and scouting, but now we shift to reflection. Whether or not you tag a deer, what can you learn from your time in the woods? We explore how to take lessons from every trip—successful or not—and use them to grow as a hunter.

We also share advice for those looking to hunt out of state and discuss what true success in hunting means. It's not always about the harvest; sometimes, it's just about getting out and doing being in the places you love.
