Jordan jones is a lot like me! Family guy. Unfiltered, and just loves shooting deer. Jordan has also learned to balance family life, a job, and consistently tagging big mature bucks across multiple states. 

We start the recording off talking about early season scouting and why jordan thinks its more hurtful than helpful in a lot of states. Then we transition into what he believes are the 3 things it takes to consistently kill mature bucks year after year. This conversation gets deep and gets somewhat emotional. I personally loved this chat and hope that you guys do too!
