Kansas is the land of the GIANTS!! On this episode Gavin is joined by Kansas big buck killer Jon Landwehr!! Jon was able to do the unthinkable and kill a 229 5/8 Kansas monster with his bow!! We go into the full story of this beautiful buck he named “Zeus”. From getting the first trail camera pictures of this buck to holding him in his hands for the first time, it’s all covered in this episode. I had a blast talking with Jon and am going to have to get him back on to talk about the other 200”+ buck he killed the year before in 2020!!!

Episode 22 is packed full of great information!! Anything and everything about deer tracking dogs basically gets covered on this episode. From what you should do when you put a bad shot on a deer to deciding to call a deer tracking dog, Chris Miller is the man with the answers!! We also talk a lot about getting new hunters in the outdoors and some changes we would like to see in Indiana for hunters in the future. Chris talks about what the different types of blood that a deer will produce when they’re shot, depending where it was shot and what that blood means for you. I know we learned a ton on talking with Chris and I believe everyone will take something from this awesome episode like we did. We want to thank Chris for taking time out of his busy schedule to talk Whitetails with us!!

On this episode Angelo Giannoni hops on and talks some Illinois Whitetails. He was born and raised in the concrete jungle of Chicago and spends his weekends getting away from the city doing all things Whitetails. Angelo just bought a new property that buds up to his family property that he’s been hunting sense he was a pup!! We talk a little bit of everything Whitetails and I enjoyed this episode a lot and made a good buddy out of and looking forward to more conversations down the road with Angelo!! I appreciate you listening to this episode and don’t forget to leave a review because it would help us out a lot!!

It’s our first “Turkey Talk” segment where we talk more about turkeys and less about Whitetails for a change since it’s the off season and even though there’s lots of things you can be doing now in preparation for deer season, it’s still fun to take a break and talk turkeys for a while!! On this episode Gavin is joined by Cory, Dylan, and Austin “Youngblood” from the Whitetail Bloodline crew to talk turkeys and hear what’s been new since the off-season. Parker Hale, Curtis Applebomb, and Jd Atchison also join Gavin to hear what they’re expecting and excited for going into the 2022 turkey season. Most of us are chasing out of state Gobblers in Kentucky for the first and looking forward to another challenge to see what it’s like hunting turkeys in a different habitat and on Public Land. This is just a shotgun style episode where I give everyone a call and see what’s got them excited! We hope you enjoy this episode and looking forward to talking Long beards and Spring turkey hunting more this off season!!

On this episode Gavin and Dylan are joined by their guest Wesley Green from Indiana. He’s been hunting open country bucks in Central Indiana where there’s a lot more agricultural fields than there is woods. Most of the properties he hunts only have a few acres of woods spreading from around 10-40 acre chunks of timber, surrounded by corn/soybeans. Wesleys area is primarily low deer density numbers so he has to do his homework and sometimes wait a year or two before a mature enough buck of his liking comes onto his property. On this episode we talk about Wesley’s 189” pope and young buck from 2019, in which is a great learning story for not only him but I think anyone could take something off his experience with this buck. We also talk about the 6.5 year old he shot this passed season in 2021 and a background on the 5 years of history and multiple encounters that he had with this buck before he ended up putting an end to that story!! Wesley is pro staff for Anilogics and he talks about some his favorite products that they have to offer. We also dive into trail cameras finding out how and why we’re using them to get after mature bucks. Hope you guys enjoy this episode, thanks for watching and please leave a 5STAR review.

Gavin and Dylan are joined on this episode by one of our local taxidermist Ethan Csereklye. Gavin took the buck he shot this past season in 2021 to Ethan so he’s excited to see his skills when he gets his buck back here in a few months. We go over the process of mounting a deer and others animals. Ethan gives tips to think about before you shoot a deer or the things you should be thinking about the moments after shooting your deer and knowing you want to mount it. These little things you can do to make the taxidermist life easier giving you better odds of having a beautiful mount once he’s done. We also ramble on about random whitetail stories and just some good ol boys talking hunting. We enjoyed this episode and looking forward to getting together with Ethan to see how it goes down first half. We appreciate you listening and would love it if you left us a 5star review!!

On this episode Gavin and Dylan are joined by Daniel Johnson!! Daniel is a whitetail fanatic who has a passion for hunting Whitetails and their sheds!! Over the years he has found an abundance a great sheds and has killed many good bucks including a 226” Southern Indiana corn fed monster whitetail buck in 2016. We talk about the story behind this buck and all the emotions that come along with chasing a 200+ inch buck. We also talk about his shed hunting tactics and things he looks for that help him be successful while shed hunting. We cover Indiana Whitetails and also Kentucky Whitetails because Daniel has lived and hunted both states throughout the years. Some topics we cover in this episode are using entry and exit routes to get in on deer without them knowing you were ever there. Are cell cameras good? Hunting a particular buck and hunting his particular personality because every buck has a different way of surviving. This episode is packed with insightful and great tips so I hope you guys enjoy it as much as we did!! Definitely going to be another episode from Daniel Johnson in the future!! Special thanks to Daniel for taking the time to talk Whitetails and strengthen our Whitetail Bloodline.

Gavin and Dylan are joined on this episode with Derek Ruppel. Derik has been an avid whitetail hunter most his life and as the years went on he started getting into mobile hunting, using saddles and hang ons both. One of the most important tactics he uses is staying mobile while also being versatile in his setup and thinking outside the box while also being open minded to try new things. Derek is a fellow Southern Indiana Deer hunter who has tons of knowledge to spread and we just scratched the surface in this episode. Lone wolf custom gear is what he currently prefers but he’s dabbled and tried just about every type of hang on and saddle that there is to offer so we hope you’re able to take something from this episode, because I know we did!! We appreciate you tagging alone with us and until next time!!

On this episode we dive into Chris Shorts first public land buck and the off season scouting he did to make it all come together. This is Southern Indiana public land on some big woods whitetails. Chris is a bow guy and ended up shooting this buck with his bow during Indiana’s gun season in late November. We appreciate you listening to this one, always a good time talking Whitetails with like minded people.

On this episode Gavin and Dylan are joined by the Original Bone Manic Shane Mowery!! We talk about his recent Bison hunt he went on where he just happen to stick pending world record with a Trad Bow!! We have a lot of random conversations with some good ol boys just “chewing the fat” as Shane would say. Hope you guys enjoy this episode because it was a blast getting to talk and get to know Shane.
