  • 742 - When Giants Roam: Drone Study Shows Why Giants Move MORE, Not Less, Late Rut with Whitetail Research

    Today, we are once again joined by Derrick Dixon of Whitetail Research to talk about drone studies, this time focusing on the late rut and post-rut time periods! We cover:

    • Why big buck movement INCREASES after the peak of the rut
    • What kind of setup gives hunters the highest odds of success this time of year
    • Figuring out if you are hunting a "homebody" or a "roamer" buck
    • Are morning or evening hunts better for hunting big bucks this time of year?
    • How bucks use different kinds of late-season food sources (acorns vs food plots vs agriculture)
    • Derrick's observations around bumping deer during the late season, and how they react
    • Make sure to check out everything Derrick has going on at Whitetail Research - https://whitetailresearch.net

      • 738 - RUT SYSTEM: How Benji Vote Tracks Down Mature Bucks

        In this episode, Andrew and Jacob sit down with public-land bowhunter Benji Vote to break down how he consistently kills mature bucks in big hill-country and river-bottom terrain. Benji explains why he trusts fresh tracks over old rubs, how rain resets the woods, and the way he uses creeks, oxbows, and flooded timber to pin down where big deer actually travel.He walks through his process for finding “the right doe group,” reading historical sign versus hot sign, and how big bucks use water, edges, and wind to lock down does where other hunters won’t go. The guys dig into hunting the lockdown phase of the rut, all-day sits, watching how deer truly move in thick cover, and building the confidence to set up in weird spots—like chest-deep water—when the sign and conditions line up.Along the way, Benji shares stories of bucks that “whipped his tail” for seasons before he finally killed them, what those deer taught him about pressure and patterns, and how his mindset has shifted from just finding sign to understanding how a single mature buck uses a specific pocket of terrain.

        Today we talk with Lynn Sisson of Virginia about the success he's had over the years hunting very small properties. Lynn hunts a few small parcels of land near his home in the mountains of VA, and none of these properties contain any great terrain funnels, or habitat features - but Lynn has found a way to tag nice bucks on these properties year after year.
