The Southern Outdoorsmen Hunting Podcast

Bow hunting OLD whitetail bucks - Nathan Killen has a history of taking old bucks (5+ yrs old) on the public lands of Virginia and West VA. We dive deep into hunting these mountains covering subjects such as hunting “off the bench”, how old bucks don’t bed and travel like other deer, accessing and hunting mountain laurel and rhododendron thickets, faint vs heavy trails, identifying the RIGHT buck sign, and MUCH MORE! We also discuss the mentality change that has to take place to target truly old bucks

Today on the show we discuss how to not waste your time scouting un-useful things in the summer months. The idea is to spend time scouting certain features such as the right kind of vegetation, terrain features with the right type of vegetation around them, access, glassing/camera locations and more. We dive into map scouting, what kind of vegetation to look for, how to determine if vegetation will remain thick into the winter, sign to ignore & more.
