On this episode of The nomadic Outdoorsman Dan talks with fellow Sportsmen’s Empire podcaster and host of Southern Ground Hunting Parker McDonald about using waterways to access unpressured public land.

Parker grew up in the oil patch of West Texas, cutting his teeth on whitetail hunting the “Texas way”. After high school he moved to the deep south in Alabama, and never looked back. Hunting in the south can be challenging, but Parker has learned that with just a little bit of extra effort, you can see high volumes of success hunting southern whitetails on public land. Parker uses boats, kayaks and other means of water transportation to hunt areas of where he can get away from heavy hunting pressure. Dan and Parker discuss the benefits of hunting these areas as well as the tips, tricks and strategies for scouting and picking out the perfect spot. Parker started using these strategies 8 years ago and now takes the show on the road by putting it into practice on public land in multiple states.
