Gauntlet, which I will be presenting Jared 8 00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:32,479 Speaker 2: with some of the toughest deer hunting situations I can 9 00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 2: think of to see exactly how we handle it. All right, 10 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 2: welcome back to the Wired to Hunt podcast, brought to 11 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 2: you by first Light there Camo for Initiative and the 12 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 2: brand new white Tail line. It's good stuff, go check 13 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 2: it out over at first Light dot com. And today's episode, 14 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:11,399 Speaker 2: we are continuing the What would You Do? Series. Today's 15 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 2: guest is Jared Scheffler, and I'm gonna give you some 16 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 2: background on Jared and some background on the series just 17 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 2: in case you're new the series. The what would you 18 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:25,320 Speaker 2: Do Gauntlet basically entails me running really good deer hunters 19 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 2: through a series of hypothetical deer hunting situations. So I 20 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 2: try to present a very specific situation, some certain circumstances like, hey, 21 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 2: you're going to be in this state with these conditions 22 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,400 Speaker 2: at this time of year, and here's what's going on. 23 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 2: What would you do? Why would you do that? How 24 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 2: would you do that? That's the kind of stuff we're 25 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 2: going for. And the whole the idea behind this is 26 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 2: just to get a different way of learning from these people. Right, 27 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 2: there's all sorts of hunting podcasts out there. There's a 28 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 2: lot of these people who have been heard from on 29 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 2: many of these podcasts many times. So I'm trying to 30 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 2: find new ways that we can learn, new ways that 31 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 2: we can grow and gain experience from these people's stories, 32 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,639 Speaker 2: you know, explanations and lessons. So that's what we're trying 33 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 2: to achieve here today. And like I mentioned, the guest, 34 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 2: our guest today is Jared Scheffler from Whitetail Adrenaline. If 35 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 2: he haven't seen Whitetail Adrenaline, this is some different kind 36 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:28,519 Speaker 2: of stuff. This is a style of hunting that is aggressive, 37 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 2: that is mobile, and is essentially all on the ground. 38 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 2: Jared kind of pioneered a lot of this stuff over 39 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 2: the last I don't know, maybe fifteen plus years now 40 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 2: with his videos showing you know, very aggressive hunting techniques 41 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 2: on the ground with a bow, sometimes just stalking up 42 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,079 Speaker 2: on white tails, sometimes setting up on the ground and 43 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 2: ambushing white tails in this kind of way, sometimes using 44 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 2: a handheld tacoy. Jared's very good at what he does, 45 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 2: and what I want to do today was understand a 46 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 2: little bit more of how and why he does what 47 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 2: he does. So, as I mentioned, presenting him with a 48 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,920 Speaker 2: bunch of different situations, some of these out in the 49 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 2: planes where he does a lot of stuff. Sometimes back 50 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 2: in more challenging scenarios like back east or in the 51 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 2: Upper Midwest, timber, open country, good conditions, bad conditions. I 52 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 2: try to get Jared to kind of consider all these 53 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 2: scenarios so that we deer hunters that maybe have a 54 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 2: difference that of circumstances can still take something from Jared. 55 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 2: So I would encourage you, even if you are, you know, 56 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 2: always a tree stand hunter or always a saddle hunter, 57 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 2: give this one a listen. Consider some of these new ideas. 58 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 2: Consider the thought process that Jared puts into his strategy. 59 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 2: Even if you think this stuff's crazy. Hunting on the ground, 60 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 2: slipping around, stalking in on deer, or calling deer in 61 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 2: on the ground, or using a decoy. If all that 62 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 2: sounds a little out there, I would still encourage you 63 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 2: to give this one a listen and think about is 64 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 2: there any way that this could inform what I do 65 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 2: to make myself better? Is there any little trick you 66 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 2: can take from here? Is there anything you can take 67 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 2: from his scenario that might be different than yours? And 68 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 2: do this thing we've talked about, like parallel thinking, you know, 69 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 2: take an idea from one world and apply it to 70 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,600 Speaker 2: your world. And I think that's something we can all 71 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 2: do here with Jared. Not to mention, just try some 72 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 2: of the stuff he's talking about, just the way he 73 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 2: talks about it too. I mean, for many years I 74 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 2: thought I was stuck in a tree and had to 75 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:36,679 Speaker 2: have a perfectly prepared situation to kill a deer. Once 76 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 2: I started trying some of these things to myself, I 77 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,040 Speaker 2: came to realize that it is much more possible than 78 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,839 Speaker 2: you realize to kill a deer on the ground without 79 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 2: a blind with a bow in the open. It just 80 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 2: takes some experience. It takes ripping the band aid off 81 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 2: and trying new things. Tony and I talk about this 82 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 2: a lot, right, try new things, if for no other 83 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 2: reason than the fact you are going to learn, you 84 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 2: are going to grow. And I guarantee you what Jared 85 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 2: proposes here, what he discusses, if you try even a 86 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 2: tenth of that, you will learn some new stuff. So 87 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 2: that's my long winded way of pitching you on this one. 88 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 2: I think you're gonna enjoy it. Great guy, interesting guy. 89 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 2: If you haven't checked out his videos, you should. They're wild, 90 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 2: they're entertaining. I can't believe some of the stuff they do. 91 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 2: So I hope you enjoy our chat here with Jared. 92 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 2: I hope your season is going well if you have 93 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 2: started already, if you're one of the lucky ones with 94 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 2: a September opener, and if not, man, we are getting 95 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 2: close to October as we speak, at least when this 96 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 2: episode comes out. I am in Alaska right now, but 97 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 2: hopefully I'll be back from that safe and sound here 98 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 2: and chomping a bit and ready to rock and roll 99 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,239 Speaker 2: White Tails in a matter of days. So without further ado, 100 00:05:53,760 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 2: let's get to my chap with Jared. All right here 101 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:06,239 Speaker 2: with me back on the show is mister Jared Scheffler.

And you're someone who already is so unique 110 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 2: compared to a lot of other folks in the hunting 111 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 2: world that getting your unique take in this unique format 112 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 2: I think is going to be a lot of fun. 113 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 3: So well, there's more than one way, you know. 114 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 4: I love it because there's a lot of different strategies 115 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 4: and angles that work, you know, and we do something 116 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 4: that's maybe not as mainstream or whatnot, but it works 117 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 4: good for us. So I'll let you continue. 118 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no, I think that's that's a perfect way 119 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,919 Speaker 2: to describe what you do and why this is I 120 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 2: think a good way to dive into it. And I 121 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 2: gotta say, I've been watching rewatching some of your videos 122 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 2: and have my sons watching with me, and and they 123 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 2: have started to refer to you as like the crazy guy, 124 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 2: Like that guy's crazy. So I think that they're catching 125 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 2: on to what many other folks have said when they 126 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 2: see some of the stuff you do, which is maybe 127 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 2: a little crazy to some people, but awfully effective, and 128 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 2: so I'm excited to dig into it.

And the reason I ask is because the 168 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 4: first thing I'm going to do is get an idea 169 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 4: of if there's public in a particular area, that is 170 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 4: it like a state wide tag or am I pinned 171 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 4: down to like a general region of the state kind 172 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 4: of thing too? 173 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 3: You know? 174 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 4: I mean, I mean some some states operate like that. 175 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 4: So I'm going to pull up on X or whatever 176 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 4: map service that's going to show what's available for public land. 177 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 4: Get just a I'm not looking at aerials or anything. 178 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 4: At this point, just how much acres do I have 179 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 4: to work with? Is there a lot? 180 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 3: Is there? 181 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 4: Sometimes the better stuff is where there's not a lot, 182 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 4: you know, it's it's, oh, you've got one hundred and 183 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 4: sixty acres and the next piece of public is ten 184 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 4: or fifteen miles away, and that sometimes is a little 185 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 4: gem that people don't want to go out of the 186 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 4: way for. So I'm just kind of going to take 187 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 4: a brief and it's it's going to take probably five 188 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 4: minutes to just kind of scrub around the read. Okay, 189 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 4: there's a lot of public here. If it's early season 190 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 4: like that, I'm gonna then go in and just spend 191 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 4: just a little bit of time and I'm saying not much, 192 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 4: probably a half hour to an hour tops maybe on 193 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 4: my drive out even and just kind of like look 194 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 4: and see what the crops, you know, see see what 195 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 4: the ails look like for crops. Because it's early season, 196 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 4: so those deer are most likely going to be using crops, 197 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 4: and it doesn't necessarily need to be crops on public, 198 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,959 Speaker 4: but at least adjacent to public that those deer may 199 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 4: be betting on the public and then using private crops 200 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 4: as well, so you know, some states have good amount 201 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 4: of crop on public lands, some don't, But that doesn't 202 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 4: mean that the deer aren't residing on public in early 203 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 4: season before they've been pressured and then using those private 204 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 4: land crops. So that's gonna kind of just narrow things 205 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 4: down of maybe my starting point from the vehicle when 206 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,959 Speaker 4: I get to that area, then what I'm going to 207 00:10:56,040 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 4: do is I'm going to spend probably that first early 208 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 4: season gets to be long days, and depending on the 209 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 4: state in the area, it's not real productive in the 210 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 4: middle of the day to be driving around other than 211 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 4: if you're just trying to see what the terrain and 212 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 4: everything looks like. But even on trying to gauge if 213 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 4: there's other hunters, that's you know, I mean sometimes early 214 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 4: season like that, guys are all amped up and they're 215 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 4: set in tree stands in the middle of the day 216 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 4: and stuff. So sometimes I mean those drive rounds, but 217 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 4: we used to do a ton of that in North Dakota, 218 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 4: and a lot of times in the middle of the 219 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 4: day you just mentally go down a rabbit hole and 220 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 4: then you know, a couple hours before dark, it's like 221 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 4: that's your time to you know, at least. What we 222 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 4: normally do on those hunts in early season is we 223 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 4: hang back. We don't generally go in with a plan 224 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 4: of attack based on aerials out of the gate. We'll 225 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 4: hang back that first day or two and try to 226 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 4: cover ground and get visuals on those deer in the 227 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 4: morning and evening. You know, in some states and reagion 228 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 4: into those deer are going to be more active in 229 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 4: the morning, and depending on the you know, all the 230 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 4: other you know, moon stuff and stormfronts and things like that. 231 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 3: I mean, there's a lot of variables in there. 232 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 4: We don't need to go down, but sometimes, I mean 233 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 4: I was quite surprised when I first started going to 234 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:22,319 Speaker 4: North Dakota back in early two thousands and how productive 235 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 4: it was to hunt them in the mornings. You know, 236 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 4: I wasn't used to that in Wisconsin. I mean, it 237 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 4: was it was more nighttime in Wisconsin in early season. Yeah, 238 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 4: I mean, your success rate was a lot higher, at 239 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 4: least in the early season in Wisconsin. So when I 240 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 4: got to North Dakota, it's like I'd see shooter bucks 241 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 4: still two hours after the sun came up, and I'm like, 242 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 4: WHOA cool. I was going out there thinking, you know, 243 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 4: and I've so it varies on the state, but I 244 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 4: mean essentially those first couple of days and it might 245 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 4: drift into three days, is going to be used to 246 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 4: really just eliminate acreage and fine, you're you know, in 247 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 4: those particular cases open country like that, trying to get 248 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 4: a visual on a big one or multiple by that point. 249 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 4: Usually on those early season hunts like that, usually there's 250 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 4: a few good bucks depending on the you know, every 251 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,839 Speaker 4: hunt's different. Sometimes it goes that way, sometimes it doesn't. 252 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 4: But then that's when it's like, Okay, now we're going 253 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 4: to move in. We've eliminated a lot of wasted time 254 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 4: in pockets that maybe wouldn't be holding a big deer, 255 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 4: and and so now we're going to go in and 256 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 4: hunt more a specific deer or there could be a 257 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 4: couple of shooters right in there, but we're going to 258 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 4: start to move in more aggressively. At that point. We're 259 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 4: not going to go in there trumpson around in the 260 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 4: middle of the day and do any of that. 261 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 3: We're not going in. 262 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 4: Until it's like hunt time. They're not going to know 263 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 4: we're coming. 264 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, let's let's rewind back to pre hunt. Still, Okay, 265 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 2: so same scenario, new new area, new hunt, everything, but 266 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,319 Speaker 2: instead of early season, let's move up the eight to 267 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 2: like mid to late October. Does any of your pre 268 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 2: hunt planning changes, any of the scouting? Do you look 269 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 2: for anything different with maps? Do you look for anything 270 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 2: different or playing anything different? If the date is mid 271 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 2: to late October? 272 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 4: Are we still talking about like the plane states? 273 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 2: Yep, everything's the same. 274 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 3: Ye, not much changes. 275 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 4: I might not put as much focus on on the 276 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 4: UH food source. I may not put quite as much 277 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 4: emphasis on necessarily that, because by that point, quite often 278 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 4: there's some amounts of pressure that those deer have been getting, 279 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 4: whether it's pheasant seasons that opened up, or small game 280 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 4: or pre scouters or early season bowl hunters, and you 281 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 4: know that they start to get a lot of activity. 282 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 4: So those deer begin to travel longer distance. In those 283 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 4: plane states, it's not uncommon form to be vetting a 284 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 4: mile a mile and a half from where they're actually 285 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 4: maybe even two miles at times from where they're actually feeding. 286 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 4: And so I won't put quite as much emphasis. And 287 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 4: I may look for pockets that are further from from 288 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 4: any crop, but I don't put quite as much emphasis 289 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 4: they generally are from what I've found further. 290 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 3: From that crop source. 291 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 4: The later the season gets, you know, obviously on rutkicks 292 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 4: in a lot of things change. 293 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 2: But so then that's my last thing is okay, now, 294 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 2: what if I said this is going to be November, 295 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 2: do you look for anything different for planning the rut hunt. 296 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 4: I pretty much don't look at crop at all for 297 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 4: any any any of that because those plaine states. 298 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 3: You know that second year we did the Kansas planes, 299 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 3: and I mean they are where we were at in 300 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 3: that particular time. There is planes as you can get 301 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 3: pretty much almost And there was one big mature buck 302 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 3: during the rut and when I went back and edited 303 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 3: the footage, it turned out we had filmed that buck. 304 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 3: I think we filmed them on all these occasions, but 305 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 3: for surely seeing them as well in eleven different square 306 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 3: mile sections. So that told me the range of those deer, 307 00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 3: how far they can you know they're they're And even 308 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 3: I've come to learn more on the wooded side too, 309 00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 3: even in northern Wisconsin. It's you know, I've had multiple 310 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 3: guys that have a trail camp picture of the same 311 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 3: bucks six miles apart, five six miles apart in the 312 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 3: timber that you know. So you know, in those earlier 313 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 3: days of the plains, I just kind of assumed those 314 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 3: deer covered more ground than you're you're wooded. 315 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 4: You know you're you're wooded, but I don't know as 316 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 4: they necessarily do. I shot a buck back in five 317 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 4: that turned out a guy had been chasing and that 318 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 4: was pretty wooded stuff, pretty wooded terrain stuff in Wisconsin. 319 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 4: I killed the buck and a guy was chasing him 320 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 4: about five six miles away, and that's where the buck 321 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 4: actually normally lived and it was late season when I 322 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 4: killed them. 323 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 3: So you know, I'm getting sidetracked a little bit. 324 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 4: But in those plain states when it comes to the rut, 325 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 4: I'm not looking at crop. 326 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 2: So on the maps, is there anything that you mentioned 327 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 2: you'd look for a little bit more isolated cover for 328 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 2: that October hunt? Does anything like that register on the maps? 329 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,439 Speaker 2: When you're thinking, Okay, I'm gonna go this area. I 330 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 2: know I'm gonna drive around a lot in Glass do 331 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 2: you try to come into that trip with a list 332 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 2: of here's like ten properties I know or ten areas 333 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 2: I know I want to hit, and here's like a 334 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 2: bunch of spots that happen to have the pockets to cover. 335 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 2: I want to do not worry about that at all, 336 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 2: because you're just gonna cover ground and figure it out 337 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 2: in the fly. 338 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,479 Speaker 4: Yeah. I don't like to get too pre invested on 339 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 4: what I see on areos. I just don't because I 340 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 4: get there and then it's like you got hunting pressure, 341 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 4: you aren't ape and that totally changes everything because no 342 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,120 Speaker 4: matter how good it looks on the aerial, if there's 343 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 4: pressure there, you know, you know, most of the time 344 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 4: a mature buck is not going to be there. You know, 345 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 4: there are occasions where where that happens. You know, for instance, 346 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 4: I'll give a couple examples. One one instance would be, 347 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 4: you know, a buck that's been heavily spending his time 348 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,679 Speaker 4: and living his time three miles away on private not 349 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 4: getting pressured, that has no idea that this public skin 350 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 4: been getting pressured the last month and a half. May 351 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,199 Speaker 4: come stroll him through there, find a hot dough or 352 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 4: push a hot dough into there, and he's in the 353 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 4: midst of a piece that's been pressured all year but 354 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 4: doesn't know it. So there are flukes like that that 355 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:59,120 Speaker 4: that come up. Another example of that that crossed my mind. God, 356 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 4: I lost my point, so we should probably keep rolling. 357 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 4: But it was there was another example I had, so. 358 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 2: I believe you. 359 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 3: Oh oh yeah, yeah. 360 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 4: We're talking about the plane states where those deer they 361 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 4: can cover some ground, they can get away from from 362 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 4: pressure pockets. You know, you get into those higher pressured states, 363 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 4: like you're in Michigan. Now, I haven't hunted Michigan, but 364 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 4: I've gathered enough intel over the years to understand that 365 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 4: it's a highly pressured state. You know, I came from Wisconsin. 366 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:28,120 Speaker 4: It's a very very pressured state. Probably not quite as 367 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,160 Speaker 4: pressured overall as Michigan. But now those deer can are there, 368 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 4: but they're used to getting bumped around all the time, 369 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 4: and they're finding little tiny pockets to a lot of 370 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 4: times to live in, and so they might I think 371 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 4: they got a higher higher tolerance those deer do for pressure. 372 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 4: They're willing to handle, you know more and and jivjive 373 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,240 Speaker 4: and and and whatnot. Whereas you get into those areas 374 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 4: where they have a lot of ground that isn't pressured, 375 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 4: they don't tolerat it as much. They just get the 376 00:19:54,000 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 4: hell out of there. 377 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:13,119 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, true. You mentioned at the beginning with that 378 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 2: early season hunt. That day one, you would be cruising 379 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 2: the back roads, right, You'd be cruising looking for where 380 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,640 Speaker 2: there's other pressure, looking for a deer, trying to find 381 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 2: a couple of shooters, start crossing spots off the map, 382 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 2: trying to figure out where you're gonna focus. So that 383 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 2: would be your early season day one. Would your day 384 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 2: one be any different if it was? Or I'm sure 385 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,440 Speaker 2: it is, But how is your early Let me rephrase this, 386 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 2: how is your day one different? If we're on the 387 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:45,640 Speaker 2: new property not new property, new area. It's November. It's 388 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 2: very cold, but it's very still. So imagine this is 389 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 2: day one of your trip. We're somewhere in the planes 390 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 2: or Midwest. It's November, twenty four degrees zero wind. What 391 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,640 Speaker 2: does the first day of this hunt like for you 392 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 2: in that set of circumstances. 393 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 4: Uh, not terribly much different generally speaking, first day, new area. 394 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:15,919 Speaker 4: I'm still gonna I'm still gonna do pretty much that 395 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 4: I'm gonna. 396 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 3: I'm gonna hang back and just kind of see what's 397 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 3: going on. 398 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:25,880 Speaker 4: And and sometimes there's still days like that during the rut, 399 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 4: it's like you can gather a lot of information and 400 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 4: you know it's a great time to catch a big, 401 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 4: big buck hung up with a dough on, you know, 402 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,199 Speaker 4: and and then you know you might she might be 403 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 4: just coming into heat and you got three days to 404 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 4: play with them, and you know, unless something like pressure 405 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 4: moves in on that specific dear, a lot of times 406 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 4: they're not gonna be that far away once they get that. 407 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 3: You know, it depends. 408 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 4: It's in the great planes where it's really wide open 409 00:21:55,840 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 4: and there's not as much cover and pocket those deer 410 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 4: can end up a long ways away from one day 411 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,399 Speaker 4: to the next, even when that dough is hot. But 412 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 4: now you get into some of the more Midwest stuff, 413 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 4: you know, Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin. And I shouldn't speak for Illinois. 414 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,920 Speaker 4: I don't have experience there, but the terrain is not 415 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 4: much too terribly different than some of you know the 416 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 4: Iowa Wisconsin. 417 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 3: Now, if there's enough cover and whatnot. There what we. 418 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 4: Found is those deer, once a big buckets locked on 419 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,680 Speaker 4: a dough a lot of times, if he's a real 420 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,679 Speaker 4: mature buck, he can just drive off all the satellite 421 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 4: bucks and that dough is pretty content being with them, 422 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 4: and usually in less pressure comes in and disrupts it. 423 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:48,119 Speaker 3: And if she's just coming in. 424 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,719 Speaker 4: Usually they don't end up too far away over that 425 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 4: two three day period. Now in the planes with a 426 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 4: wide open planes, like I said, totally different story. I mean, 427 00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 4: satellite buck could come in and you can watch him 428 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:05,400 Speaker 4: run for a mile mile and a half. So yeah, So. 429 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 2: What about that first situation. I want to dip in 430 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 2: that a little bit further. Let's say we're in the midwest, 431 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:14,400 Speaker 2: Iowa or Wisconsin or something like that, and let's say 432 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 2: you had your day one drive about and you spotted 433 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,959 Speaker 2: a mature buck locked on a dough. It's a super still, 434 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 2: quiet day, and for whatever reason, I guess I have 435 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 2: two parts. Number one, if it's a super still day 436 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 2: like that and you spot them and it's getting towards 437 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:34,879 Speaker 2: the end of the evening, would you try to make 438 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 2: a move on something or would you say, well, I'll 439 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 2: wait till tomorrow because there's a little bit more wind 440 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 2: and slightly better conditioned. So that's question number one. And 441 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 2: then question number two is if you lose sight of 442 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,920 Speaker 2: that deer at dark, what does the next morning look like? Again, 443 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 2: it's Midwest, mixed cover and lightish wins the next morning, 444 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:57,439 Speaker 2: So Part one, Part two questions. 445 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,200 Speaker 4: Okay, I'm going to answer the part two question first, 446 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 4: just so it's in because part two is if it 447 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 4: comes to dark, and I mean the next morning, we're 448 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:16,920 Speaker 4: gonna be hunkered pretty close, probably not on foot, depending 449 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,879 Speaker 4: on the situation, Probably not on foot, probably in the vehicle. 450 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:24,160 Speaker 4: It doesn't mean that we might not hike a couple 451 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,399 Speaker 4: hundred yards to a high point where we can really 452 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 4: you know, and maybe it's five hundred yards to a 453 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 4: high point, but we're gonna be things could have changed overnight. 454 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 4: You know, they'll probably be in the vicinity, but it's 455 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 4: probably gonna be I shouldn't say probably. There's a decent 456 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 4: chance they'll be somewhere in that four or five six 457 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 4: hundred yards. They could be right right there, you know. So, uh, 458 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 4: that's what we're going to do in that particular case, 459 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 4: rolling back to point one, very still, calm conditions, not 460 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,720 Speaker 4: a lot of time left in the day to make 461 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 4: it happen. That's gonna be situations, situationally based. 462 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 3: Because there's. 463 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 4: When you got a big buck that's on a hot 464 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 4: dough like that, and Chancey is phenomenal at this being 465 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 4: able to recognize that those just coming into heat or 466 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 4: she's probably on day three of heat and she's probably 467 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:26,960 Speaker 4: gonna be out by tomorrow morning. 468 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 2: Explain that that it's. 469 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 3: It's really hard to explain. He would be better at that. 470 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 4: But I've watched him, whether I'm with him or editing 471 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 4: the footage, I've watched him pick up on things and 472 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:51,120 Speaker 4: he doesn't necessarily always just explain it, but he's usually 473 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 4: very accurate on that. And so, I mean, a few 474 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 4: years back, he had a big one that he found, 475 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 4: I think that was day one. He found it and 476 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 4: it was hung up with a dough, and he read 477 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 4: it right out of the gate, and he it was 478 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 4: pretty fairly calmed conditions, and he he probably would have 479 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 4: gotten more aggressive, but he read it right that that 480 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 4: dough was just coming into heat, so he knew, Okay, 481 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 4: that's a mature enough buck. He's not going to be 482 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:23,399 Speaker 4: too intimidated by satellite bucks and everything's going to get 483 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 4: disrupted and he's going to end up a mile away. 484 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 4: He's probably going to be pretty close the next day, 485 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 4: so I'm not going to get too aggressive. And he 486 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:34,640 Speaker 4: he did it right. I mean that this game of 487 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 4: on the ground, it's a constant passive aggressive, you know, 488 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 4: and over the years you get it more and more honed, 489 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 4: and there's a lot that goes into it. 490 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 3: Now, if it appears. 491 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 4: Let's say you got a three year old buck and 492 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,399 Speaker 4: let's say four and five year old bucks in this 493 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 4: area are somewhat common, and you're already dealing with some 494 00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 4: satellite bucks that are poking around, and he's real aggressive 495 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 4: and real you know, you can just read the book 496 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,680 Speaker 4: and he almost kind of feels maybe a little bit threatened, 497 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 4: like he's not the dominant necessarily. Maybe it is a 498 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,879 Speaker 4: good time to move in and just try to make 499 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 4: it happen, because that's an indicator right there that a 500 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 4: lot's probably going to change overnight. 501 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 3: And either. 502 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 4: And if you're playing the public land game, there's always 503 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 4: that risk too of are they even going to be 504 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 4: on public the next day? You know, So there's a 505 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 4: lot of factors in there that you know, I will 506 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 4: say this though, sometimes we've taken chances with like, yeah, 507 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 4: we got like a five percent chance this is gonna 508 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:53,639 Speaker 4: actually work, but we just kind of feel like there's 509 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 4: no point in not trying because they're probably going to 510 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,120 Speaker 4: be on private the next day or whatever, and we've 511 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 4: pulled it off or we've been so narrowly close, and 512 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 4: it was just a slight little mistake on our end. 513 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 3: In similar conditions to what you described, where there's like no. 514 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 4: Win and it's like this is gonna be next to impossible, 515 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,879 Speaker 4: and then it's like, damn, we got that one, or 516 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 4: we almost got that one. We were so close. And 517 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,360 Speaker 4: then there's been plenty of times where it's like, okay, 518 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 4: you almost count your chickens before they hatch, like this 519 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 4: should be a slam dunk, and then we get slapped 520 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 4: in the face. 521 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 2: So so what about this one? What about let's just 522 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 2: paint this picture a little bit further. Let's say you 523 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 2: had those conditions the night of you observe the buck 524 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 2: with a dough, but for whatever reason, decide that you're 525 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 2: not going to press the matter. You observe them for 526 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 2: the last half hour of daylight. You watch them kind 527 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 2: of just milling around this tall brushy stuff. Okay, there's 528 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 2: like there's basically crp type fields, and then a few 529 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 2: brush your draws in the area. You come back in 530 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 2: the next morning. You said you would probably observe from 531 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 2: a truck. Let's say you're on the side of a road, 532 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 2: your glass and your glass and sure enough, you spot 533 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 2: them five hundred yards away, and you spot them move 534 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 2: down towards one of these draws and bed, you spot 535 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 2: the two deer bedded. It's an hour after daylight, now 536 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 2: dead still. You're five hundred and fifty yards away. It's 537 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 2: November seventh, it's public land. And you've seen three other 538 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 2: cars drive by on the road that have hunters in them. 539 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 2: You haven't seen them stop. You haven't seen them get 540 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 2: out to hunt this area. But you know, like, hey, 541 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 2: there's pressure around. There's a big buck betted with a 542 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 2: doll five hundred and fifty yards away. You watched them bed. 543 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 2: It's crisp, it's still. Now what do you do? And 544 00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 2: I'll tell you the wind is subpar, Like the wind 545 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 2: is kind of blowing ish towards them, like kind not 546 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 2: straight at them from you. But you don't have the 547 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 2: wind in your face. 548 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 4: Okay, all right, So the first thing I am gonna 549 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 4: do is today we have the app, so tell us 550 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 4: what the wind's gonna do throughout the day. And it's 551 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 4: not always one hundred percent accurate. And then you got 552 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 4: trains in there and stuff, but I'm at least gonna 553 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 4: get an idea. Am I gonna get a fifteen to 554 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 4: twenty mile an hour wind here in a few hours, 555 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 4: is that win gonna switch? And I'm gonna take a 556 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:29,959 Speaker 4: look at all that, And that's only gonna take a 557 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 4: couple of minutes to boom boom boom boom boom. Okay, 558 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 4: all right, that's what we got to work with over 559 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 4: the course of the day. And then you brought up 560 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,800 Speaker 4: the other hunters. Okay, so I'm assuming this buck is 561 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 4: hunkered down. Okay, good, the hunters can't see them, you know. Okay, 562 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 4: all right, we got them all messled in, so that's good. 563 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 3: But being a buck with it hot though, all it's 564 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:00,160 Speaker 3: gonna take. 565 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 4: Is a satellite buck, cruising buck to come in there 566 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 4: and stir things up and they get on their feet 567 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 4: and the hunter just happens to drive by and sees that. 568 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 4: So it's it's kind of a risky deal to lay 569 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 4: back too. So in this particular case, from what I you, 570 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 4: without being in the exact situation, I'm probably going to 571 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 4: try to get boots on the ground at least to 572 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 4: get a little bit of a footing down right out 573 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 4: of the you know, to get an edge on other hunters. Potentially. 574 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 4: First thing I'm going to do if I'm doing that, 575 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 4: is I'm going to get the vehicle parked in a 576 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 4: way that doesn't appear that something's going on. Like you know, 577 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 4: if I park the vehicle right along the road and 578 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 4: there's a parking lot three hundred yards up the road, 579 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 4: it sends like a message any hunter driving by, like, Oh, 580 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 4: something's going on around here. And then all of a 581 00:31:56,280 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 4: sudden people are slow rolling through there, doingmultiple passes, maybe 582 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 4: parking and stopping, and and that could totally disrupt them 583 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 4: when they're vetted, just by the sound of the vehicle 584 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 4: or just by visual maybe that the deer can see 585 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,239 Speaker 4: the vehicle and then it stops and it makes them 586 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 4: all fidgety. 587 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 3: So I'm going to get that vehicle. 588 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 4: Away from the situation a bit and parked in a 589 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 4: way that you're playing defense a lot of times here, 590 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 4: you know, because you're trying to buy some time, you know, 591 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 4: you know, And I mean when I say playing defense, 592 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 4: I mean that in all good, good, good fair competition fun. 593 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 4: You know. It's not like you don't want other people 594 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 4: to have a good hunt too, but you're in the 595 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 4: battle with a big buck, you know. Yeah, And and 596 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 4: then yeah, I mean being a very call what sounds 597 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 4: like a calm day at least starting out, I'm just 598 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 4: going to gradually, just ever so slowly work my way 599 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 4: in there. Now, when I say gradually and slowly, if 600 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:07,800 Speaker 4: there's no risk from sight or sound or smell, I'm 601 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 4: going to cover ground very quickly because I'm not going 602 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 4: to have a visual and anything could happen at Bumpslow's 603 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 4: deer and the last thing, and I've been in this 604 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 4: situation before where to make your entrance you have to 605 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 4: lose your vantage point where you would maintain your visual, 606 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 4: and you want to cut when you're doing that. You 607 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 4: want to get through that whatever, whatever that is. You 608 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 4: want to cover ground as fast as you can to 609 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 4: get at least your vantage. 610 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 3: Back, because we've done that before. 611 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 4: And then spend hours slow creeping in there to find 612 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 4: that they exited the whole situation while we were doing 613 00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 4: the ten minute you know pass where we lost our 614 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 4: where we had to lose our vantage point, and then 615 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 4: we crawl in there and it's like where did they go? 616 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,240 Speaker 4: Where did they go? Where did they go? 617 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:05,440 Speaker 3: They're not here? 618 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 4: Oh no, so so and and two when we're talking 619 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:16,279 Speaker 4: about you mentioned like you're in your vehicle, I want 620 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 4: to The reason so often we don't like to leave 621 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 4: that vehicle in these situations until we're actually going in 622 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 4: is because the vehicle allows us to cover a lot 623 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 4: of ground. It's it's it's a lot of times a 624 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 4: vehicle gets referenced as a vehicle, it is in this 625 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,319 Speaker 4: case a vehicle that allows us to get to the 626 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:40,359 Speaker 4: next vantage point in case something you know, I mean, 627 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,759 Speaker 4: something happens and they take off running. That happens a 628 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 4: lot of times, and you maybe need to get to 629 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 4: the next vantage point. So and and like I said, 630 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:52,919 Speaker 4: sometimes the vantage point is a hike in a little 631 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 4: bit from the vehicle, and sometimes it's a long ways 632 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 4: in from the vehicle. 633 00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 2: But you're. 634 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 4: When you're lead even that vehicle and you're you're not 635 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 4: ready to move in for the stock, you're at high 636 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 4: risk of if they decide something happens that triggers them 637 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 4: to cover ground and you're a ways away from the vehicle, 638 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 4: you're at high risk of losing it for the rest 639 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 4: of the day, losing your opportunity because they might take 640 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:31,960 Speaker 4: off running over a hill or whatever that you can't 641 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 4: maintain your visual, You have no idea what happened where 642 00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 4: they went after that, and by the time you get 643 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:39,880 Speaker 4: to the vehicle and get to the next fountain, they 644 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 4: might already be vetted down in a pocket. You don't 645 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:43,399 Speaker 4: know if they're half a mile this way or half 646 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:48,319 Speaker 4: mile that way, or or whatnot. So that's why a 647 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 4: lot of times we like to, you know, during that 648 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,880 Speaker 4: time of the year, we like to keep fairly close 649 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 4: to the vehicle in case we need to relocate to 650 00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 4: another vantage point pretty quickly. 651 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:02,800 Speaker 2: You know, so makes sense. So you stayed by the 652 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 2: vehicle for as long as possible, But now you're going 653 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,040 Speaker 2: to make the move. You said you'd cover distance as 654 00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:10,439 Speaker 2: fast as you could, as long as there's no risk 655 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:14,239 Speaker 2: of sight, sound, or smell interfering. So let's say you 656 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 2: did that. So we went from five hundred and fifty 657 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:19,319 Speaker 2: yards to Let's now say you were able to cut 658 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,720 Speaker 2: it to two hundred and fifty. But at two hundred 659 00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:23,719 Speaker 2: and fifty yards you come out of like you lose 660 00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 2: your little hill, and now it's there's a risk of 661 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 2: being seen. Now from two hundred and fifty yards and 662 00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:35,240 Speaker 2: end it's still the wind is still low, it's still dry. 663 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:39,240 Speaker 4: What Now, that's where you start putting on the brakes 664 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:43,279 Speaker 4: a lot of times and moving very very slow. You 665 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 4: got good thing here is you got all day. You 666 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 4: got a lot of hours in the day. So there's 667 00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:51,359 Speaker 4: and you got your advantage. So you can see if 668 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:54,759 Speaker 4: they if something happens and they decide they're going to 669 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 4: relocate or whatever. 670 00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,640 Speaker 3: So you're not in the dark. 671 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 4: I guess you're not slow creeping in the dark where 672 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:07,319 Speaker 4: they could take an exit route, not an exit route 673 00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:09,360 Speaker 4: necessarily because they know about you. 674 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,320 Speaker 3: Just for whatever reason, they get flighty. 675 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,319 Speaker 4: A vehicle comes up the road, a satellite buck comes in, 676 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 4: whatever the case might be. You've got your vantage to 677 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 4: that point to observe that you got all day. Now 678 00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:25,759 Speaker 4: it's time to most of the time. It's going to 679 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:28,839 Speaker 4: be time to put the brakes on. And all that 680 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,319 Speaker 4: hustling you did through that point that you bought a 681 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:33,959 Speaker 4: little time too in there, and so now it's time 682 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,759 Speaker 4: to You were a rabbit before, now it's time to 683 00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:37,320 Speaker 4: be a turtle. 684 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:46,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you're slow rolling. Now, let me introduce a 685 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 2: red flag. Maybe at two hundred fifty yards. You're sneaking 686 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 2: a long, nice and quiet, you're the tortoise right now, 687 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:55,799 Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden that buck stands up 688 00:37:56,480 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 2: and looks right at you and staring at you, and 689 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:05,400 Speaker 2: I guess I'm assuming you have your handheld decoy with you. 690 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 2: Do you have your decoy with you. 691 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:08,400 Speaker 4: This most of the time, I'm not going to have 692 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:10,719 Speaker 4: that popped out yet, you're not if I if I 693 00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:12,360 Speaker 4: have it, no, but you. 694 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,880 Speaker 2: Would possibly take it with you on this type of stock, 695 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 2: So it's probably with you. 696 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 4: Maybe it probably would be, but it's probably not pulled 697 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:22,160 Speaker 4: out yet. If I'm two hundred or two hundred and 698 00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 4: fifty yards away. 699 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:26,239 Speaker 2: Okay, so then let's let's say this. Then, so he 700 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:28,839 Speaker 2: stands up, You're two hundred and fifty yards away, and 701 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 2: he locks right on you, and you you have no 702 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:34,759 Speaker 2: reason to think he smells you, but somehow he pegged you. 703 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:40,880 Speaker 4: Now what, Freeze for a long time, don't move for 704 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:44,080 Speaker 4: a long long time, and you're far enough away if 705 00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:47,279 Speaker 4: he's not. If he's not, the general rule I've come 706 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:52,240 Speaker 4: to find is if they aren't exiting, they just saw something. 707 00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,280 Speaker 4: They haven't confirmed that you're a human or your threat 708 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,799 Speaker 4: or anything yet. So since he's got a hot dough there, 709 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 4: if you just freeze and don't move, you'll probably be fine. 710 00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:09,560 Speaker 4: He'll he'll get preoccupied and sidetracked after a little while, 711 00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 4: and he might kind of pop back in, you know, 712 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 4: and check on it a couple of times. Usually if 713 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:18,759 Speaker 4: he's gonna do that, it's it's not gonna be a 714 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,440 Speaker 4: long time. Like he'll get sidetracked at the dough for 715 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:23,799 Speaker 4: a minute and then he might come back to you, 716 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,280 Speaker 4: but it's usually not a half hour later or something. 717 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:30,440 Speaker 3: He's you know, moved on. 718 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 4: And so usually if if they're pretty certain, if I 719 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:37,759 Speaker 4: sense it, they're pretty certain something doesn't look right to him, 720 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:42,920 Speaker 4: I pretty much expect the more attention they're given me 721 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:46,359 Speaker 4: in that one first instant stance, like they stand there 722 00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 4: for a few minutes, they're pretty convinced something's not right. 723 00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,440 Speaker 4: So that tells me that they're gonna come back to me, 724 00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:56,920 Speaker 4: Like they're gonna get sidetracked here in a minute with something, 725 00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 4: but they've locked onto this situation enough to where they're 726 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 4: going to come back to it in a minute or 727 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,719 Speaker 4: ten seconds or you know, I mean, it could be 728 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:10,880 Speaker 4: just the normal trick of you know, you see this 729 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:14,879 Speaker 4: a lot in early season, is you know they're trying 730 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:19,400 Speaker 4: to you know, they're i mean all kinds of predatory 731 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,719 Speaker 4: game does this to them. So that's how they got 732 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 4: so honed over, you know, thousands of years is is? 733 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 4: I mean, okay, if I look away, they know I'm 734 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 4: looking away, and that's when they're going to be moving up. 735 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 4: Did I get you? You know? Okay? So and eventually 736 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:42,319 Speaker 4: they they if they start doing that and I and 737 00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:45,440 Speaker 4: I'm not moving, I've already beat them. It's just a 738 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 4: matter of I've already tricked them. They just don't know 739 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:54,360 Speaker 4: it yet. But I got to be patient and just 740 00:40:55,120 --> 00:41:00,040 Speaker 4: not move. And eventually, nine times out of ten and 741 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:01,400 Speaker 4: they eventually forget about it. 742 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 3: And except that it's nothing. 743 00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 2: Okay, I'm gonna keep on playing this out. So that 744 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:11,840 Speaker 2: happens at two hundred fifty yards. He stands up, he 745 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:16,640 Speaker 2: stares you down. You freeze. Fifteen minutes go by. He 746 00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:19,320 Speaker 2: does the head bob at the end, but you don't blink, 747 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:23,040 Speaker 2: you don't breathe, you don't move a muscle, nothing goes wrong, 748 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:27,040 Speaker 2: the wind doesn't swirl. Eventually he gets back, puts his 749 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 2: attention on the dough. They re bet you now continue 750 00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:35,720 Speaker 2: your slow creep. It's now noon, and over the next 751 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:39,040 Speaker 2: three hours you close the distance from two hundred and 752 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:45,560 Speaker 2: fifty yards to eighty yards. But at eighty yards, because 753 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:48,160 Speaker 2: of the lay of the land, there really is like 754 00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:51,279 Speaker 2: no way you can stay out of sight. I mean 755 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 2: even if you were like on all fours, if you 756 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:55,840 Speaker 2: were to kind of you're kind of coming down a 757 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 2: hill now towards him and her, and they're bedded facing you. 758 00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:01,719 Speaker 2: So at this point you see no way you could 759 00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:05,319 Speaker 2: possibly get any closer without them seeing you. Now at 760 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:09,359 Speaker 2: eighty yards, it's three o'clock in the afternoon. You're eighty 761 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:12,400 Speaker 2: yards away from the buck bedded with the dough facing 762 00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:19,880 Speaker 2: you in you know, anywhere from like shin to just 763 00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 2: above knee high grass. Now, okay, you have your handheld 764 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 2: decoy with you, you have a cameraman with you, you 765 00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:31,560 Speaker 2: have a bow with you. Still not a lot of 766 00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 2: wind we now have, you know, two and a half 767 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:39,360 Speaker 2: hours of daylight left something like that. What do you 768 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:40,880 Speaker 2: do over the next two and a half hours. 769 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 4: That is a tough scenario. The first thing I would 770 00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:56,600 Speaker 4: potentially consider is I have this thing that sometimes I 771 00:42:56,640 --> 00:43:04,799 Speaker 4: will try stuff that is it's nearly impossible. I don't 772 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:06,399 Speaker 4: know if it's just to see if it would work 773 00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:12,839 Speaker 4: or or what, but I I would evaluate could I 774 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:15,360 Speaker 4: slither on my belly, not on all fours, but just 775 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:18,960 Speaker 4: literally on my belly. Could I slope slither down this 776 00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:21,840 Speaker 4: hill ever so slowly and I'm in plain sight, but 777 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:25,719 Speaker 4: I'm moving slow enough and I'm low enough. Could I 778 00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 4: pull that off? And could I do it quiet enough 779 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:35,160 Speaker 4: to where I didn't alarm them by sound without a 780 00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:39,640 Speaker 4: lot of wind though? You know, compound guys, you're a 781 00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:49,600 Speaker 4: lot safer because you got the range. So one thing 782 00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:51,719 Speaker 4: I've learned over the years is you know, I like 783 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:55,560 Speaker 4: to get inside of twenty on them with a long bow. Well, 784 00:43:57,320 --> 00:43:58,920 Speaker 4: you get inside of twenty and you don't have a 785 00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:02,960 Speaker 4: lot of time. Yeah, And the tree stand guys know this. 786 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:05,680 Speaker 4: When they get a big, mature old buck coming in, 787 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:08,640 Speaker 4: when they start to break twenty yards coming in to 788 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:11,200 Speaker 4: their tree stands set, they know a lot can that 789 00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:16,760 Speaker 4: buck can detect them through various methods and ways very quickly, 790 00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:22,560 Speaker 4: and oftentimes they do. So you're going to break that 791 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 4: threshold of twenty sneaking in on them, and then you're 792 00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:27,480 Speaker 4: going to hang out there for an hour. 793 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:33,879 Speaker 3: To wait for an opportunity. That's very difficult to. 794 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,319 Speaker 4: Do, especially when you don't have a lot of win 795 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:38,799 Speaker 4: because then that wind just sits there and turns and 796 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:40,480 Speaker 4: spins and you don't know what it's going to do, 797 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:44,279 Speaker 4: and you can't. You can have the most optimal win, 798 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:48,120 Speaker 4: but if there's not much of it, you really don't. 799 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:55,719 Speaker 4: So I mean, I had a big, big, mature nine 800 00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:57,520 Speaker 4: pointer last year and it would have been a perfect 801 00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:00,399 Speaker 4: situation for a compoundent and we had five I think 802 00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 4: five mile an hour winds. It wasn't much. I looked 803 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:06,759 Speaker 4: at them, I'm like, it ain't picking up today, and 804 00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:10,719 Speaker 4: it was I think it was late morning we went 805 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 4: into this was in the timber, and I had a 806 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:18,720 Speaker 4: beautiful fifty yard shot with a compound, but we had 807 00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 4: what would be the perfect wind, but with it that looks. 808 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:24,600 Speaker 3: You know, that soft. 809 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:31,080 Speaker 4: I was talking about it for fifteen twenty minutes. We 810 00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:33,600 Speaker 4: were kind of peeking, moving around this cedar tree on them, 811 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:37,040 Speaker 4: and I was like, I just there's no way, there's 812 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:40,520 Speaker 4: no way I can get inside of twenty do it 813 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:43,640 Speaker 4: in the I'd have to do it slow, and there's 814 00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:46,160 Speaker 4: no way there's gonna be a wind current or whatever. 815 00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:47,920 Speaker 4: And I kind of was reading it and I was like, 816 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:52,840 Speaker 4: this dough has got she's just coming in there's no 817 00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:58,360 Speaker 4: pressure today disrupting this. It's it's during the week, so 818 00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 4: that's good for pressure reason. And I was like, we 819 00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:05,160 Speaker 4: should back out of here and just bank on bank 820 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 4: on him him driving her back in here tomorrow morning. 821 00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:10,240 Speaker 3: We were. 822 00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:16,839 Speaker 4: Literally exiting backwards, very slowly, just a few yards, that's 823 00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:19,440 Speaker 4: all the further we made it, and one of the 824 00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:22,359 Speaker 4: wind currents from our location made it made it there 825 00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:25,600 Speaker 4: and we had the primary win. I mean, I'm not 826 00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:27,759 Speaker 4: going off the weather app I'm going we had the 827 00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:29,239 Speaker 4: primary win where we were at. 828 00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:33,719 Speaker 3: But you know, I he hot around too much. 829 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:35,600 Speaker 4: My gut was telling me I need to back out 830 00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:39,440 Speaker 4: and and bank on them being there tomorrow. And I 831 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:44,160 Speaker 4: I wanted to move in, and I burnt a little 832 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:47,399 Speaker 4: too much time and it cost me. And I wasn't 833 00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:51,040 Speaker 4: quite expecting that at fifty yards for that to happen. 834 00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:54,719 Speaker 4: But I got sidetracked on that situation a little bit. 835 00:46:54,800 --> 00:47:01,319 Speaker 2: But so yeah, so at eighty yards, Yeah, if you 836 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:03,640 Speaker 2: didn't do the slide in there on your belly thing, 837 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 2: would you try to bring him to you at all? 838 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:08,920 Speaker 2: Would you try to call any kind of way or 839 00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:12,040 Speaker 2: flip up the decoy or anything, or just wait until 840 00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 2: dark and hope he moves your way. What then, So. 841 00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:20,040 Speaker 4: With that decoy, one of the things we've done over 842 00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:24,279 Speaker 4: the years is if a buck's locked on a dough 843 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 4: and we've had a little time to observe them and 844 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:29,080 Speaker 4: their satellite bucks, we'll get a pretty good idea on 845 00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:33,240 Speaker 4: how close we'd have to get to break the comfort 846 00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:36,080 Speaker 4: zone to where he comes comes in, you know, and 847 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:37,240 Speaker 4: every buck's different. 848 00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:38,160 Speaker 3: He might. 849 00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:42,000 Speaker 4: He might just stand there and stare at these satellite 850 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:45,759 Speaker 4: bucks and not take more than a few steps away 851 00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:46,080 Speaker 4: from him. 852 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:47,880 Speaker 3: Still, he might come eighty yards. 853 00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:53,920 Speaker 4: So if we sense he's an aggressive buck, we probably 854 00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:56,080 Speaker 4: in that particular case, would whip. 855 00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:58,040 Speaker 3: It out on an eighty Now, we got. 856 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:01,080 Speaker 4: Some footage in the works, not so much on the 857 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:06,520 Speaker 4: next film, but the one that follows, where Tanner he 858 00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:09,359 Speaker 4: moved in three hundred yards with the decoy in plain sight. 859 00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:11,440 Speaker 4: He did it very slow. 860 00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:16,600 Speaker 3: And that buck, I don't think that buck came from 861 00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:17,240 Speaker 3: my understanding. 862 00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:19,319 Speaker 4: He was a big mature. I don't know. He looks 863 00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:24,319 Speaker 4: like he's fifty to sixty field dress big. He wasn't 864 00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:26,319 Speaker 4: budget from his dough, and a lot of times those big, 865 00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:29,920 Speaker 4: big old mature I got this, like you want to 866 00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:32,200 Speaker 4: come in here. Okay, I'm going to stare and look 867 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,479 Speaker 4: at you, but I don't got reason to come eighty yards. 868 00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 4: I'm not that threatened. So he moved in there in 869 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:44,759 Speaker 4: plain sight, I think it was three hundred yards and 870 00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:48,000 Speaker 4: all the way to I think twenty or somewhere around there, 871 00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 4: and it worked. He was a beat up buck. He 872 00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:55,440 Speaker 4: didn't have a big rack, but I mean he was. 873 00:48:57,320 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 4: He was a brew. So yeah, we got some great 874 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:03,799 Speaker 4: decoy stuff coming, not so much on the next one, 875 00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:04,840 Speaker 4: but the one that follows. 876 00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:08,799 Speaker 2: So which of those things, though, would you end up 877 00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:10,680 Speaker 2: doing if you had to pick right now, gun to 878 00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:14,960 Speaker 2: your head. In that scenario, which fork in the road 879 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:15,439 Speaker 2: you'd pick? 880 00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:25,440 Speaker 4: I would probably do the decoy. But it gets funky 881 00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:30,080 Speaker 4: there because you mentioned shin high grass. Shinned knee high grass. 882 00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:34,360 Speaker 4: In my mind, that's enough grass to do the belly 883 00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:37,560 Speaker 4: crawl slide down. But there's not a lot of winds. 884 00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:41,520 Speaker 4: So me trying to move in with the decoy, all 885 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:44,000 Speaker 4: that grass in the way of the decoy unless I 886 00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:47,080 Speaker 4: don't have you know, unless I have it lifted up, 887 00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:51,440 Speaker 4: which is gonna look goofy, or the legs come up. 888 00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:54,400 Speaker 4: All that noise from the grass hitting that decoy is 889 00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:57,120 Speaker 4: going to be a huge problem and gonna be kind 890 00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:02,560 Speaker 4: of cumbersome. So that that's a really tough tough call 891 00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:08,120 Speaker 4: on that particular one. But I'd say it's probably gonna 892 00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:11,160 Speaker 4: be better suited for the decoy. But doesn't mean that 893 00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:14,360 Speaker 4: I won't try the belly crawl in there just to see. 894 00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:18,200 Speaker 2: So okay, let's let's change it just a little bit. Yeah, 895 00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:20,520 Speaker 2: this this scenario has given us lots of stuff to 896 00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:22,360 Speaker 2: play with us. I'm just gonna keep on riffing on 897 00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:25,920 Speaker 2: this one. Let's imagine that we had a little bit 898 00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:28,759 Speaker 2: more cover, so instead of like shin hi grass, we 899 00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:33,160 Speaker 2: have like waist high grass and some clumpy bushes of 900 00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:36,960 Speaker 2: some kinds of shrubs and stuff. So actually, you're not 901 00:50:37,040 --> 00:50:39,920 Speaker 2: hung up at eighty. You've got the ability to sneak 902 00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:46,920 Speaker 2: within range, and you you do so, so you're slipping in, 903 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:49,800 Speaker 2: you're slow rolling it in. You make it all the 904 00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 2: way to within shooting range. But at shooting range. So 905 00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:55,480 Speaker 2: for you with the with your bow, let's say at 906 00:50:55,520 --> 00:51:01,600 Speaker 2: twenty yards, a little word does swirl yeah, up, bounces 907 00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:06,759 Speaker 2: off to thirty, pauses and looks at you. What do 908 00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:07,120 Speaker 2: you do? 909 00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:09,719 Speaker 3: I take the shot if I got it. 910 00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:17,759 Speaker 4: If and a lot of times in my experience, if 911 00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:21,840 Speaker 4: they get you by smell like that, not always, but 912 00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:25,720 Speaker 4: a lot of times, they're going more than. 913 00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:29,880 Speaker 3: Thirty you know, they're not just they're out of there now. 914 00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:34,320 Speaker 4: If they get you by sight or sound, that's pretty 915 00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:37,640 Speaker 4: common because they don't they haven't confirmed what that site 916 00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 4: for surely is or what that sound for surely is. 917 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:44,000 Speaker 4: Smell totally different deal. Smell is the worst one because 918 00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:47,719 Speaker 4: it's one hundred percent confirmation they know exactly what that is. 919 00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:54,520 Speaker 3: Sound sound, They don't know site, they don't know. 920 00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:58,719 Speaker 4: I mean most of the time they don't know, like 921 00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:02,080 Speaker 4: without taking in just a little bit more time, and 922 00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:02,640 Speaker 4: that might. 923 00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:04,840 Speaker 3: Be a half a second, that might be a few seconds. 924 00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:09,279 Speaker 4: That might be the stare off for five minutes if 925 00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:13,560 Speaker 4: they caught movement, but you're buying time. If they're getting 926 00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:19,560 Speaker 4: you by as by one of those senses. Smells the 927 00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:22,799 Speaker 4: worst because it is confirmation, and that's why it's so 928 00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:24,800 Speaker 4: dangerous and you don't know when it's coming. 929 00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:28,560 Speaker 3: The second you make too much noise, you know, it 930 00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:29,840 Speaker 3: can get wild. 931 00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:33,400 Speaker 4: You know, the second you maybe get a little bit 932 00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:35,600 Speaker 4: off balance and create a little extra movement. 933 00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:39,440 Speaker 3: You know, it could get wild the smell. 934 00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:43,360 Speaker 4: Sometimes you catch the you know, catch it on the 935 00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:45,720 Speaker 4: back of your neck or something, and you're like, oh shoot. 936 00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:50,239 Speaker 4: But sometimes you don't, and you don't know when it's 937 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:52,200 Speaker 4: going to hit their nose, and so you're behind the 938 00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:56,320 Speaker 4: eight ball a lot on smelled because you don't always 939 00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:59,400 Speaker 4: know when they're going to get it, and when they 940 00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:13,680 Speaker 4: get it, it's pretty serious deal to them. 941 00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:16,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, So you make a great point. So let's let 942 00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:18,239 Speaker 2: me adjust it just a little bit. Let's say you 943 00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:23,759 Speaker 2: step on a branch, it cracks, the buck jumps, We'll 944 00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:27,520 Speaker 2: say runs a what's the range for you, Jared? Where 945 00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:29,840 Speaker 2: you're like, Eh, I don't know if I want to 946 00:53:29,840 --> 00:53:31,480 Speaker 2: take that shot or not. What's that What would that 947 00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:33,239 Speaker 2: range be for you? Where you're like right on the 948 00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:35,879 Speaker 2: edge of man, I could I could probably pull it off, 949 00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:37,120 Speaker 2: but I don't know if I really want to. What 950 00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:38,560 Speaker 2: would that be for you right now? 951 00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:39,080 Speaker 3: Probably? 952 00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:42,479 Speaker 4: Probably probably twenty. But I've only shot all year long. 953 00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:45,000 Speaker 4: I don't shoot range until closer to hunting season. Other 954 00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:50,319 Speaker 4: than this summer, I've shot in range four times, and 955 00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:53,399 Speaker 4: so I'd feel good to twenty right now. 956 00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:58,360 Speaker 3: I mean, in the season though i'd well by season. 957 00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:02,000 Speaker 4: You know, if I shot two three sessions and practiced 958 00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:04,560 Speaker 4: to thirty, i'd feel good to thirty, right, you know, 959 00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:05,880 Speaker 4: in two to three sessions. 960 00:54:05,880 --> 00:54:10,719 Speaker 3: It factors in pretty quick with where I'm going with it. 961 00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:13,080 Speaker 4: Though, if I'm inside of fifteen and I cracked that stick, 962 00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:16,080 Speaker 4: I'm probably gonna shoot him right there right now. I've 963 00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:19,880 Speaker 4: gotten fast enough that if that happens, it's gonna be 964 00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:20,759 Speaker 4: an explosion. 965 00:54:21,600 --> 00:54:23,480 Speaker 3: It's gonna be really wild, really quick. 966 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:29,840 Speaker 4: So, and we do have one one documented that it 967 00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:31,080 Speaker 4: worked good doing that. 968 00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:35,040 Speaker 2: So but what about this situation where what if it's 969 00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:37,240 Speaker 2: just a little bit outside of like what you feel 970 00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:39,960 Speaker 2: really good at. So let's say thirty five, he stepped 971 00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:43,920 Speaker 2: on the twig, he bounds off to thirty five, he stops, 972 00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:47,200 Speaker 2: he's head bobbing. He's given you time. But in your 973 00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:49,600 Speaker 2: mind you're thinking, man, maybe I can make the shot. 974 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:52,719 Speaker 2: But if I do, he's gonna is he gonna duck? 975 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:56,520 Speaker 2: Is he gonna spin? He's all amped up. But if 976 00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:58,879 Speaker 2: I just freeze and do nothing, I'm going to miss 977 00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:02,759 Speaker 2: this opportunity. Then maybe you're thinking, but maybe if I 978 00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:05,479 Speaker 2: hold still long enough, maybe he'll get curious and get 979 00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:07,840 Speaker 2: a little bit closer like they sometimes do, and they 980 00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:11,279 Speaker 2: don't really know what's going on. There's a whole bunch 981 00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:14,600 Speaker 2: of different ways this could go. In that scenario when 982 00:55:14,600 --> 00:55:18,840 Speaker 2: it's not a perfect easy shot, it's not the worst bump. Ever, 983 00:55:19,160 --> 00:55:19,920 Speaker 2: what about then. 984 00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:30,120 Speaker 4: I probably I would say what would probably happen now 985 00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:35,520 Speaker 4: is I would probably have already hit about full draw 986 00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:37,920 Speaker 4: by the time he was coming to a stop, and 987 00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:41,319 Speaker 4: that arrow's headed that direction about the instant he's coming 988 00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:41,840 Speaker 4: to a stop. 989 00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:43,640 Speaker 3: Not necessarily saying it would play. 990 00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:47,959 Speaker 4: Out like that, but that's probably what my instincts would 991 00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:50,880 Speaker 4: kick in and just do and it would all be like, whoa, 992 00:55:51,040 --> 00:56:00,840 Speaker 4: that just happened kind of. That's probably probably probably the 993 00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:07,719 Speaker 4: scenario on that one. So that's one of the advantages. 994 00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:13,279 Speaker 4: You know, there's pros and cons to traditional bows and compounds. 995 00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:21,680 Speaker 4: You know, you can with a traditional bow, you can 996 00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:27,120 Speaker 4: execute a very quick shot, and you can you have 997 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:32,120 Speaker 4: the ability to become very versatile in that with that 998 00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:36,120 Speaker 4: weapon as well. It's a give and take though there's 999 00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:39,000 Speaker 4: a lot of situations where the compound has a significant 1000 00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:43,480 Speaker 4: advantage in accuracy, range, drawback. You got to let off, 1001 00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:47,440 Speaker 4: you can hold it, you know, I mean it's it's 1002 00:56:48,239 --> 00:56:50,400 Speaker 4: if I'm inside of twenty, I'd much rather have a 1003 00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:52,880 Speaker 4: long ago. I'm at an advantage now now at this point. 1004 00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:57,640 Speaker 4: So I mean different weapons and different shooting styles, they 1005 00:56:57,680 --> 00:56:59,799 Speaker 4: all have their strengths and weaknesses. 1006 00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:03,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, so all right, I want I want to do 1007 00:57:03,320 --> 00:57:07,040 Speaker 2: one last one in this scenario, one last possible difference. 1008 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:10,160 Speaker 2: So instead of you stepping on a twig and spooking him, 1009 00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:14,400 Speaker 2: you get all the way to twenty and he stays betted. 1010 00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:18,280 Speaker 2: We're down at this point, though it's taken more time. Now, 1011 00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:22,640 Speaker 2: we're down to the last fifteen minutes a day light 1012 00:57:23,560 --> 00:57:25,560 Speaker 2: and they're still betted. For whatever reason, they have not 1013 00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:27,880 Speaker 2: gotten back up to move around for the evening. They're 1014 00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:32,320 Speaker 2: betted down and you can see his vitals, but it's 1015 00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:35,080 Speaker 2: not perfectly clear, like there's still some grass kind of 1016 00:57:35,120 --> 00:57:38,840 Speaker 2: around it. Do you take the betted shot or do 1017 00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:40,680 Speaker 2: you roll the dice and hope he stands up the 1018 00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:42,640 Speaker 2: next ten to twelve minutes, or do you do something 1019 00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:44,080 Speaker 2: to make him get up at this point? 1020 00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:47,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, what I would what I would do there with 1021 00:57:47,600 --> 00:57:52,720 Speaker 4: where I'm at now is keep in mind we're filming 1022 00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:56,920 Speaker 4: all this, so I would ideally I would have whoever's 1023 00:57:56,920 --> 00:57:59,240 Speaker 4: filming me be in a position where they can not 1024 00:57:59,480 --> 00:58:02,000 Speaker 4: move and film everything that's about to happen. 1025 00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:06,480 Speaker 3: And then I would try to get to fifteen. 1026 00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:11,680 Speaker 4: Very as fast as I can, but it's slow enough 1027 00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:15,800 Speaker 4: not to get detected. And then at that point I 1028 00:58:15,840 --> 00:58:21,520 Speaker 4: would saddle up. And this is going to sound radical, 1029 00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:27,480 Speaker 4: but I would move as quickly as I can, but 1030 00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:31,680 Speaker 4: still trying to not get detected, if that kind of 1031 00:58:31,680 --> 00:58:32,240 Speaker 4: makes sense. 1032 00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:34,320 Speaker 2: So when you say you're trying to move as quickly 1033 00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:36,880 Speaker 2: as you can, you were at twenty, and so you're 1034 00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:39,760 Speaker 2: gonna just like I want to get to fifteen, you're 1035 00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:40,680 Speaker 2: gonna walk fifth. 1036 00:58:41,720 --> 00:58:44,439 Speaker 4: I want to get to fifteen without being detected. Once 1037 00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:50,960 Speaker 4: I get to fifteen, now I'm gonna be ready to shoot, 1038 00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:57,200 Speaker 4: and I'm gonna, you know, if it's tall enough grass, 1039 00:58:57,240 --> 00:58:59,600 Speaker 4: I'm still going to be staying fairly low, but I'm 1040 00:58:59,600 --> 00:59:02,640 Speaker 4: not cross anymore. I'm ready to shoot. And the second 1041 00:59:02,680 --> 00:59:04,200 Speaker 4: he gets me now, I want him to get me 1042 00:59:04,240 --> 00:59:06,520 Speaker 4: by sights or or or hearing. I don't want him 1043 00:59:06,560 --> 00:59:08,240 Speaker 4: to get me by smell. That's why I got to 1044 00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:11,120 Speaker 4: move quick, because now I've hit fifteen, and you want 1045 00:59:11,200 --> 00:59:16,200 Speaker 4: him standing up or in motion of standing up, it's 1046 00:59:16,240 --> 00:59:24,240 Speaker 4: it's uh and and then in one one fast motion 1047 00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:27,000 Speaker 4: it uh. 1048 00:59:27,760 --> 00:59:28,760 Speaker 2: It's like throwing a football. 1049 00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:32,320 Speaker 4: Huh yeah, yeah yeah. And I've I've. 1050 00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:35,520 Speaker 3: Worked on archery a lot to be. 1051 00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:39,880 Speaker 4: Able to to to be confident enough to do that 1052 00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:42,920 Speaker 4: not you know, I've ran the clock speeds and and 1053 00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:45,480 Speaker 4: all of that, you know, on how fast white tails 1054 00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:48,960 Speaker 4: react and that, and and that gave me the confidence 1055 00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:51,520 Speaker 4: to implement that that one and it worked really well. 1056 00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:56,160 Speaker 4: So yeah, I'm giving a lot away there. But that's 1057 00:59:57,000 --> 00:59:59,360 Speaker 4: there's a great danger, like I said earlier, of getting 1058 00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:01,439 Speaker 4: inside of twenty and then hanging out there for an hour, 1059 01:00:01,720 --> 01:00:03,680 Speaker 4: especially when you don't have much wins. I mean, even 1060 01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:06,840 Speaker 4: if you got fifteen mile an hour, pretty good wins. 1061 01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:09,240 Speaker 4: One kick of that wind, when you get that tight, 1062 01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:10,640 Speaker 4: you don't have much mark. 1063 01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:11,520 Speaker 3: When you're hanging out. 1064 01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:14,360 Speaker 4: At forty to fifty, you know, you get a kick 1065 01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:17,000 Speaker 4: of the wind. You got a quite a bit of 1066 01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:19,040 Speaker 4: distance to get that straight for that wind to get 1067 01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:20,919 Speaker 4: straight and back up. But when you get that tight 1068 01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:25,360 Speaker 4: on them, you don't have much cushion, so you don't 1069 01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:33,760 Speaker 4: have much time. And so time is is that's it's 1070 01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:36,120 Speaker 4: a head scratch of what I just explained there. 1071 01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:39,200 Speaker 2: Well, it's it's impressive though too that you can pull 1072 01:00:39,240 --> 01:00:42,160 Speaker 2: it off. Not an easy thing to do. 1073 01:00:42,520 --> 01:00:44,560 Speaker 3: No, No, it's it's it's not. 1074 01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:49,680 Speaker 4: And I've I've learned a lot in a lot of 1075 01:00:49,720 --> 01:00:59,080 Speaker 4: ancient archery stuff that that makes it seem impossible or 1076 01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:04,960 Speaker 4: we how do I explain this to us? That sounds crazy, 1077 01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:08,240 Speaker 4: But to actually do it, you know, trained off a 1078 01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:11,680 Speaker 4: lot of this stuff, it's once I get to fifteen, 1079 01:01:11,760 --> 01:01:17,000 Speaker 4: I feel like it's it's not hard now, but. 1080 01:01:19,840 --> 01:01:23,120 Speaker 3: It's required a lot of a lot of. 1081 01:01:24,120 --> 01:01:31,160 Speaker 2: What is the what is the most important skill set 1082 01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:35,520 Speaker 2: or the very most important variable to really focus on 1083 01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:38,600 Speaker 2: when trying to close in you know, to fifteen yards, 1084 01:01:38,640 --> 01:01:40,880 Speaker 2: that last fifth let's say, from thirty yards to fifteen 1085 01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:42,800 Speaker 2: I think a lot of guys maybe could maybe could 1086 01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:46,080 Speaker 2: get to thirty yards on a deer and they would 1087 01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:48,440 Speaker 2: feel like, man, I'm in his wheelhouse and taking that shop. 1088 01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:51,520 Speaker 2: But that last fifteen yards or the last five from 1089 01:01:51,520 --> 01:01:55,200 Speaker 2: twenty to five, like from twenty to fifteen like super 1090 01:01:55,240 --> 01:02:00,360 Speaker 2: super tight. What's like the ninja next level thing that 1091 01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:03,080 Speaker 2: someone can do to be able to close that extra 1092 01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:05,200 Speaker 2: distance if they're trying to do something like this, or 1093 01:02:05,240 --> 01:02:07,600 Speaker 2: if they're just you know, trying to get better at 1094 01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:10,560 Speaker 2: getting from forty to twenty whatever it is, what is 1095 01:02:11,040 --> 01:02:13,280 Speaker 2: you know, what have you picked up that's allowed you 1096 01:02:13,360 --> 01:02:16,080 Speaker 2: to get really good at closing those last few yards 1097 01:02:16,120 --> 01:02:16,840 Speaker 2: the final ten. 1098 01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:23,160 Speaker 4: Gosh, every situation so different. The last two I shot, 1099 01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:25,280 Speaker 4: I shot on my feet standing up. 1100 01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:27,400 Speaker 2: You know. 1101 01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:29,120 Speaker 4: I was kind of half cocked on the one I 1102 01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:31,840 Speaker 4: just explained. The other one I was fully standing up. 1103 01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:36,240 Speaker 4: And both of those one was at four yards, one 1104 01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:38,560 Speaker 4: was at four and a half yards, So. 1105 01:02:40,560 --> 01:02:41,960 Speaker 3: I had just tall. 1106 01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:46,360 Speaker 4: Enough grass to pull off the one that I just explained, 1107 01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:49,800 Speaker 4: And I had the guy that was filming Ethan at 1108 01:02:49,840 --> 01:02:52,280 Speaker 4: fifteen with the camera and we had they were buried 1109 01:02:52,280 --> 01:02:57,720 Speaker 4: in the grass enough, and I knew from experience we 1110 01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:01,160 Speaker 4: had probably less in thirty seconds, and he was going 1111 01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:03,320 Speaker 4: to have us by wind, and that was going to 1112 01:03:03,360 --> 01:03:06,600 Speaker 4: be very difficult because I don't know when that's exactly 1113 01:03:06,600 --> 01:03:10,680 Speaker 4: gonna happen. So that's why I made the decision I 1114 01:03:10,680 --> 01:03:12,960 Speaker 4: did in that moment, and I felt kind of actually 1115 01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:18,480 Speaker 4: I had already premeditated for the right situation, like this 1116 01:03:18,680 --> 01:03:20,240 Speaker 4: is this is where I'm going to go with it. 1117 01:03:20,920 --> 01:03:23,360 Speaker 4: And trained quite a bit in archery to do it. 1118 01:03:24,360 --> 01:03:29,400 Speaker 4: But when I was in that stock, I felt a 1119 01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:33,040 Speaker 4: little bit it behind because I didn't actually think about 1120 01:03:33,080 --> 01:03:34,920 Speaker 4: doing that. And then all of a sudden it hit me. 1121 01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:36,720 Speaker 4: I was like, what am I doing? This is what 1122 01:03:36,800 --> 01:03:40,480 Speaker 4: I've trained, and I just I said, get ready, it's 1123 01:03:40,480 --> 01:03:43,760 Speaker 4: happening right now, and it all came together and I 1124 01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:45,600 Speaker 4: never had to. You know, now, in the old days, 1125 01:03:45,640 --> 01:03:47,200 Speaker 4: I maybe would have been on my hands and knees 1126 01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:49,200 Speaker 4: a little bit longer crawling in well, you make more 1127 01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:55,439 Speaker 4: noise doing that, you stay more concealed. But I wasn't 1128 01:03:55,440 --> 01:04:00,640 Speaker 4: worried too much about concealment anymore, so I could so 1129 01:04:00,680 --> 01:04:05,880 Speaker 4: that that's because I'm I got fast enough. 1130 01:04:05,720 --> 01:04:09,840 Speaker 3: Shooting the bow that the concealment isn't just needed anymore. 1131 01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:12,720 Speaker 4: So now I can That allows me to keep my 1132 01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:16,480 Speaker 4: feet on the ground not worry so much about Once 1133 01:04:16,520 --> 01:04:18,320 Speaker 4: I'm that tight, I don't have to worry so much 1134 01:04:18,320 --> 01:04:21,160 Speaker 4: about them seeing me because that I'm gonna have a 1135 01:04:21,160 --> 01:04:23,400 Speaker 4: half a second because they're gonna what is that? And 1136 01:04:26,160 --> 01:04:29,920 Speaker 4: so the shot can happen fast enough that now I 1137 01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:31,600 Speaker 4: can be quieter because I don't have to be a 1138 01:04:31,920 --> 01:04:34,439 Speaker 4: worry about concealment as much once I get that tight, 1139 01:04:34,520 --> 01:04:36,320 Speaker 4: if that kind of makes sense. So that allowed me 1140 01:04:36,360 --> 01:04:39,320 Speaker 4: to actually, in that particular case, get get closer. Now, 1141 01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:42,120 Speaker 4: if they weren't buried in the tall enough grass, they 1142 01:04:42,160 --> 01:04:44,120 Speaker 4: would have me by visuals. I'd be on my hands 1143 01:04:44,160 --> 01:04:50,160 Speaker 4: and knees. So it's everyone's a different chess match, you know. 1144 01:04:50,360 --> 01:04:56,200 Speaker 4: Every every situation is a different a different deal, you know. 1145 01:04:57,680 --> 01:05:00,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, So let me put you on a different chess. Now. 1146 01:05:01,360 --> 01:05:05,480 Speaker 2: I'm going to take you out of this awesome scenario 1147 01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:06,800 Speaker 2: where you can see stuff. 1148 01:05:07,120 --> 01:05:09,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, taking out that scenario. 1149 01:05:09,160 --> 01:05:11,080 Speaker 4: By the way, I was just getting ready to get 1150 01:05:11,160 --> 01:05:14,240 Speaker 4: dumped off to do a two mile timber stock, and 1151 01:05:14,280 --> 01:05:17,280 Speaker 4: this buck he pushed a dough right out into the 1152 01:05:17,320 --> 01:05:21,000 Speaker 4: crp on the edge of that timber out of nowhere. 1153 01:05:21,000 --> 01:05:22,840 Speaker 4: They were going to drop me off. We're four hundred 1154 01:05:22,880 --> 01:05:24,920 Speaker 4: yards fromhere. I was getting dropped off. I wanted to 1155 01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:28,040 Speaker 4: do a timber stock all day, and you know, so 1156 01:05:28,080 --> 01:05:31,360 Speaker 4: it was a beautifu one hundred and fifty inch public Land. 1157 01:05:31,200 --> 01:05:34,440 Speaker 5: Bok and I was like, I wanted to do with timbersuck, 1158 01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:37,520 Speaker 5: I gotta do it, you know, I can't not well, 1159 01:05:37,520 --> 01:05:39,400 Speaker 5: I'm gonna let you do a timber stock now though, 1160 01:05:39,520 --> 01:05:41,720 Speaker 5: because the next scenario I wanted to walk you through, 1161 01:05:41,800 --> 01:05:44,560 Speaker 5: or have you walked me through, is a timber situation. 1162 01:05:45,440 --> 01:05:50,040 Speaker 2: Let's say that this coming season, you can't leave Wisconsin. 1163 01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:53,680 Speaker 2: You have to hunt Wisconsin, you have to hunt public, 1164 01:05:54,240 --> 01:05:58,640 Speaker 2: and it has to be timber, okay, and you're gonna 1165 01:05:59,360 --> 01:06:01,880 Speaker 2: We're on a particular day here, a week here, and 1166 01:06:02,200 --> 01:06:06,080 Speaker 2: we've got kind of ten twelve mile in hour winds, 1167 01:06:06,120 --> 01:06:09,400 Speaker 2: so there's a little bit of wind, otherwise dry, and 1168 01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:14,480 Speaker 2: it is November one. Walk me through how you would 1169 01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:18,360 Speaker 2: kill a deer, a decent buck on that kind of 1170 01:06:18,440 --> 01:06:20,120 Speaker 2: day in Wisconsin. 1171 01:06:20,880 --> 01:06:25,720 Speaker 4: What I'm going to probably do there's a different scenario 1172 01:06:25,760 --> 01:06:30,400 Speaker 4: than what we started out with earlier. Talking by this point, 1173 01:06:31,080 --> 01:06:35,680 Speaker 4: I'm going to probably already have some different pieces, and 1174 01:06:35,920 --> 01:06:37,640 Speaker 4: I'm probably not going to spend much time in the 1175 01:06:37,680 --> 01:06:42,680 Speaker 4: vehicle starting out, you know, in that particular setting of 1176 01:06:43,040 --> 01:06:45,080 Speaker 4: a lot of woods, and you know, unless it's like 1177 01:06:45,160 --> 01:06:47,360 Speaker 4: day one and I'm in a whole new region, you know, 1178 01:06:47,640 --> 01:06:51,840 Speaker 4: then i might do that whole driving around and whatnot. 1179 01:06:52,680 --> 01:06:56,600 Speaker 4: I'm probably going to focus. I would probably shift from 1180 01:06:57,000 --> 01:07:00,280 Speaker 4: what we did what was working for us quite a 1181 01:07:00,280 --> 01:07:03,360 Speaker 4: while back, which was a lot of the MFL grounds 1182 01:07:03,360 --> 01:07:05,080 Speaker 4: and stuff like that that a lot of people didn't 1183 01:07:05,120 --> 01:07:07,600 Speaker 4: know about and know there wasn't maps for and stuff, 1184 01:07:07,640 --> 01:07:09,919 Speaker 4: and you know, a lot of those parcels were pretty small, 1185 01:07:09,920 --> 01:07:11,480 Speaker 4: but they didn't get a lot of pressure. Now they've 1186 01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:13,320 Speaker 4: gotten a lot of pressure, and it doesn't take much 1187 01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:15,440 Speaker 4: pressure to blow out an eighty or one sixty. So 1188 01:07:15,480 --> 01:07:16,920 Speaker 4: I'm probably going to go back to a lot of 1189 01:07:16,960 --> 01:07:22,400 Speaker 4: the actual big public acreage stuff, you know, more along 1190 01:07:22,440 --> 01:07:26,480 Speaker 4: those lines and put boots on the ground, and I'm 1191 01:07:26,480 --> 01:07:30,080 Speaker 4: probably gonna cover ground in the timber. And if I 1192 01:07:30,120 --> 01:07:32,600 Speaker 4: got ten to twelve dollar hour winds, well there's gonna 1193 01:07:32,600 --> 01:07:36,560 Speaker 4: be enough leaf blowing and branch movement with that that 1194 01:07:36,640 --> 01:07:39,120 Speaker 4: I can move at a faster rate in the timber. 1195 01:07:39,960 --> 01:07:43,640 Speaker 4: And I'm going to cover ground through the timber and 1196 01:07:43,760 --> 01:07:47,480 Speaker 4: try to get a visual on a big one or 1197 01:07:47,520 --> 01:07:52,200 Speaker 4: a dough or a pocketed doze, and you know, things 1198 01:07:52,280 --> 01:07:53,800 Speaker 4: kind of shift in there. You find out a little 1199 01:07:53,840 --> 01:07:58,280 Speaker 4: pocketed dose. It's November first, you know, I come across that. 1200 01:07:58,560 --> 01:08:01,000 Speaker 4: I might try to get a little bit in the 1201 01:08:01,080 --> 01:08:03,439 Speaker 4: right situation to catch a buck coming in and hang 1202 01:08:03,480 --> 01:08:05,000 Speaker 4: out there for a couple hours and try to catch 1203 01:08:05,040 --> 01:08:09,720 Speaker 4: a buck cruising in. So I'm still in the timber 1204 01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:12,360 Speaker 4: like that. I'm still going for visual that you know 1205 01:08:12,840 --> 01:08:14,480 Speaker 4: we did that I didn't. I only got to hunt 1206 01:08:14,520 --> 01:08:18,960 Speaker 4: a few days this year. I filmed some, but but 1207 01:08:20,439 --> 01:08:22,719 Speaker 4: I haven't done the timber that much in recent years. 1208 01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:25,240 Speaker 4: So I'm like I got into the timber and and 1209 01:08:25,280 --> 01:08:26,680 Speaker 4: we were fortunate on that one. 1210 01:08:26,760 --> 01:08:27,519 Speaker 3: We're very lucky. 1211 01:08:27,520 --> 01:08:31,160 Speaker 4: I just caught just the slightest glint of movement and 1212 01:08:31,200 --> 01:08:34,680 Speaker 4: it was pretty thick stuff and we were only I 1213 01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:37,840 Speaker 4: don't know, we probably left the vehicle twenty minutes before that, 1214 01:08:37,840 --> 01:08:43,240 Speaker 4: that's it. And TC was filming me, and I was 1215 01:08:43,600 --> 01:08:46,519 Speaker 4: sure I just caught something, just like a just like 1216 01:08:46,560 --> 01:08:46,960 Speaker 4: a deer. 1217 01:08:47,280 --> 01:08:49,160 Speaker 3: I'm sure I seen something. What is that? 1218 01:08:49,280 --> 01:08:52,200 Speaker 4: Sarah? And we just put on the brakes. We hardly 1219 01:08:52,240 --> 01:08:54,559 Speaker 4: had any wind, and it was pretty thick stuff. I 1220 01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:58,360 Speaker 4: just had a pocket that I could see across a 1221 01:08:58,400 --> 01:09:01,080 Speaker 4: little bit of an open There was trees and stuff, 1222 01:09:01,160 --> 01:09:03,719 Speaker 4: but that's where I caught it, probably seventy yards out, 1223 01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:08,479 Speaker 4: but it was pretty seatory type stuff around there, and 1224 01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:11,760 Speaker 4: I thought it was a deer. I thought I saw 1225 01:09:11,760 --> 01:09:15,439 Speaker 4: a tailwig and I think it was about five minutes. 1226 01:09:15,600 --> 01:09:20,840 Speaker 4: We we just didn't move our location, and I kept 1227 01:09:20,880 --> 01:09:23,960 Speaker 4: eyes on and kept glassing in there and I couldn't 1228 01:09:24,400 --> 01:09:26,439 Speaker 4: and then all of a sudden, boom, there's one hundred 1229 01:09:26,439 --> 01:09:30,160 Speaker 4: and sixty inch nine pointer with a with a dough 1230 01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:33,080 Speaker 4: and I was reading it and I'm like, I think 1231 01:09:33,080 --> 01:09:36,000 Speaker 4: she's just coming in, you know, And I was like, 1232 01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:40,360 Speaker 4: and they looped in and there was one pocket there 1233 01:09:40,400 --> 01:09:42,920 Speaker 4: where it was he stopped broadside at fifty and it 1234 01:09:42,920 --> 01:09:49,080 Speaker 4: would have been beautiful for a compound. But so, I mean, 1235 01:09:49,120 --> 01:09:51,680 Speaker 4: we were going in one hundred percent. And that's how 1236 01:09:51,720 --> 01:09:53,800 Speaker 4: I would do it with timber too, is I'm going 1237 01:09:53,800 --> 01:09:55,479 Speaker 4: in one hundred percent to try to get a visual 1238 01:09:55,520 --> 01:09:57,679 Speaker 4: in the timber and then go from there. 1239 01:09:57,840 --> 01:10:12,000 Speaker 2: You know, how fast are you moving when you're working 1240 01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:13,960 Speaker 2: your way through, you know, with a little bit of wind, 1241 01:10:14,080 --> 01:10:17,160 Speaker 2: so you've got some amount of sound cover. You know 1242 01:10:17,240 --> 01:10:19,960 Speaker 2: when you say covering distance and covering ground, is that 1243 01:10:20,080 --> 01:10:24,360 Speaker 2: like you're stopping and glassing every twenty yards or use 1244 01:10:24,520 --> 01:10:25,799 Speaker 2: cruising or what. 1245 01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:27,880 Speaker 4: A lot of times in the timber. A lot of 1246 01:10:27,880 --> 01:10:30,240 Speaker 4: times in the timber, I'm going off my eyes for 1247 01:10:30,600 --> 01:10:33,960 Speaker 4: picking them up. I don't That's how I pick most 1248 01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:37,960 Speaker 4: of them up. Occasionally I do it with with binoculars, 1249 01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:41,519 Speaker 4: but usually I'm picking something up by eyesight. I keep 1250 01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:45,880 Speaker 4: my eyes going while I'm moving. We actually moved in 1251 01:10:46,320 --> 01:10:51,920 Speaker 4: fairly aggressively into we started to slow roll it a 1252 01:10:51,920 --> 01:10:54,519 Speaker 4: little bit when we got close to where I picked 1253 01:10:54,600 --> 01:10:55,400 Speaker 4: up that visual. 1254 01:10:58,240 --> 01:11:00,000 Speaker 3: I don't know how fast we were going. We weren't 1255 01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:01,360 Speaker 3: stop in every. 1256 01:11:04,040 --> 01:11:06,479 Speaker 4: I don't think we were really stopping hardly at all, really, 1257 01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:12,080 Speaker 4: but we weren't moving at We were quietly moving at 1258 01:11:12,120 --> 01:11:16,280 Speaker 4: a slow pace, steadily but quietly and fairly slowly. But 1259 01:11:16,320 --> 01:11:20,720 Speaker 4: we weren't really doing too much stopping in that particular case. Now, 1260 01:11:21,200 --> 01:11:24,280 Speaker 4: that was some fairly heavy brushy with a lot of 1261 01:11:25,320 --> 01:11:28,640 Speaker 4: twisting and turning of branches, so it totally disrupts. You know, 1262 01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:30,519 Speaker 4: if you're in the a lot of the wooded stuff, 1263 01:11:30,560 --> 01:11:33,920 Speaker 4: like in Wisconsin, you got fairly not always, but you 1264 01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:36,960 Speaker 4: got fairly vertical. Like let's say you're in the hills 1265 01:11:36,960 --> 01:11:39,679 Speaker 4: of Wisconsin bluff country or whatever. A lot of times 1266 01:11:39,680 --> 01:11:43,599 Speaker 4: that you don't get a lot of that brushy stuff. 1267 01:11:43,840 --> 01:11:45,840 Speaker 4: Well I shouldn't say you don't. You can. 1268 01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:47,960 Speaker 3: You get clear cuts and all kinds of stuff. 1269 01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:51,320 Speaker 4: But where a lot of times in that timbour, you 1270 01:11:51,360 --> 01:11:55,160 Speaker 4: can see one hundred and fifty two hundred yards. Sometimes, well, 1271 01:11:55,200 --> 01:11:56,880 Speaker 4: I'm going to be moving at a pretty good clip 1272 01:11:56,920 --> 01:12:01,280 Speaker 4: through there because I can see them long before they 1273 01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:06,599 Speaker 4: can hear me, and a decent, pretty good chance of 1274 01:12:06,680 --> 01:12:09,320 Speaker 4: if I'm playing the wind right on where I think 1275 01:12:09,320 --> 01:12:13,600 Speaker 4: they maybe would be. I've got that somewhat to my advantage, 1276 01:12:14,120 --> 01:12:16,200 Speaker 4: so I'm not as risk, so there's a better chance 1277 01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:17,920 Speaker 4: I'm going to pick them up, then they're gonna pick 1278 01:12:17,960 --> 01:12:21,719 Speaker 4: me up. Therefore I can move and cover ground quicker. 1279 01:12:21,800 --> 01:12:24,320 Speaker 4: Now you get into that hairrier, thicker stuff. You got 1280 01:12:24,320 --> 01:12:29,880 Speaker 4: to put on the brakes more. So, it's. 1281 01:12:30,880 --> 01:12:31,240 Speaker 3: The game. 1282 01:12:31,439 --> 01:12:36,880 Speaker 4: The ground game in the timber is very it's so 1283 01:12:37,080 --> 01:12:43,639 Speaker 4: variable of you know, there's not one pace I move 1284 01:12:43,680 --> 01:12:46,600 Speaker 4: at all the time. There's would you. 1285 01:12:46,360 --> 01:12:49,519 Speaker 2: Would you give a shot even if you had no 1286 01:12:49,680 --> 01:12:54,639 Speaker 2: wind and dry so it's like potato chip leaves and 1287 01:12:54,680 --> 01:12:57,080 Speaker 2: no wind, would you still try something like that? If 1288 01:12:57,120 --> 01:12:59,160 Speaker 2: that was like you know, a hunt this or I 1289 01:12:59,160 --> 01:12:59,800 Speaker 2: don't hunt at all? 1290 01:13:00,160 --> 01:13:03,719 Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah, And when it gets that quiet, you can 1291 01:13:04,360 --> 01:13:09,680 Speaker 4: there's you have the element of hearing as well, so 1292 01:13:09,800 --> 01:13:13,559 Speaker 4: you can slow down your pace really slow and hear them, 1293 01:13:15,040 --> 01:13:16,720 Speaker 4: but if you're moving out of slow enough face and 1294 01:13:16,760 --> 01:13:20,440 Speaker 4: we A perfect example of that would be in twenty 1295 01:13:20,600 --> 01:13:23,000 Speaker 4: ten in the Regroup video. We went into a piece 1296 01:13:23,040 --> 01:13:25,240 Speaker 4: of public in the dark that we had never laid 1297 01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:29,519 Speaker 4: eyes on before, so we didn't even know what we 1298 01:13:29,520 --> 01:13:33,639 Speaker 4: were getting into. And it was a pretty quiet day 1299 01:13:34,160 --> 01:13:37,400 Speaker 4: and it was my first day of that hunt in 1300 01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:40,599 Speaker 4: that area. We drove through the night to get there, 1301 01:13:41,040 --> 01:13:44,120 Speaker 4: never seen this ground in daylight, and I almost got it. 1302 01:13:44,120 --> 01:13:46,479 Speaker 4: It was a one hundred and sixty sixty five inch buck. 1303 01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:53,760 Speaker 4: I should have had them, but I didn't. But it 1304 01:13:53,800 --> 01:13:57,280 Speaker 4: was a pretty calm, calm day, I mean, Chrispy Frost 1305 01:13:57,960 --> 01:14:03,240 Speaker 4: like no win. And then the hunt kind of went 1306 01:14:03,280 --> 01:14:04,640 Speaker 4: on for a couple of days. I should have got 1307 01:14:04,680 --> 01:14:05,320 Speaker 4: another big one. 1308 01:14:05,320 --> 01:14:05,800 Speaker 3: The next day. 1309 01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:08,120 Speaker 4: I was having a rough hunt. We left, went to 1310 01:14:08,160 --> 01:14:11,519 Speaker 4: Kansas for three and a half days. That could have 1311 01:14:11,600 --> 01:14:15,840 Speaker 4: went better too, and then we had something come up 1312 01:14:16,600 --> 01:14:19,439 Speaker 4: and had to head back to Wisconsin and we decided 1313 01:14:19,439 --> 01:14:22,559 Speaker 4: to hit for the morning. I or again where this 1314 01:14:22,640 --> 01:14:27,599 Speaker 4: hunt took place, and again we didn't have I mean, 1315 01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:30,120 Speaker 4: it was like no wind and we just we just 1316 01:14:30,200 --> 01:14:34,000 Speaker 4: went in there using our ears a lot, moving real slow, 1317 01:14:35,080 --> 01:14:37,519 Speaker 4: and I shot one hundred and forty some inch or 1318 01:14:37,680 --> 01:14:42,519 Speaker 4: low forty eight pointer, and we we played, you know, 1319 01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:44,400 Speaker 4: we could hear them up there, and we kind of 1320 01:14:44,400 --> 01:14:49,960 Speaker 4: pushed it. We kind of pushed getting closer, and then 1321 01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:52,240 Speaker 4: we put the brakes on and him and a couple 1322 01:14:52,280 --> 01:14:54,479 Speaker 4: of small bucks ended up falling right into our lot 1323 01:14:56,080 --> 01:14:58,280 Speaker 4: and it worked out perfect. I think he was twenty 1324 01:14:58,320 --> 01:15:00,320 Speaker 4: twenty four. Actually that's the first buck we ever shot 1325 01:15:00,439 --> 01:15:05,000 Speaker 4: facing with the head on shot, so it was an accident, 1326 01:15:05,080 --> 01:15:10,320 Speaker 4: but it worked out. So you can do it on 1327 01:15:10,400 --> 01:15:15,120 Speaker 4: the ground in those scenarios of what you just describe 1328 01:15:15,200 --> 01:15:20,080 Speaker 4: those super still frosty, Well, you got your ears, and 1329 01:15:20,120 --> 01:15:22,519 Speaker 4: that can be a huge advantage. You know, it's it's. 1330 01:15:24,040 --> 01:15:25,040 Speaker 3: More suited to. 1331 01:15:27,000 --> 01:15:29,360 Speaker 4: Not very well for you sneaking in on them, but 1332 01:15:29,960 --> 01:15:36,439 Speaker 4: in terms of you hearing them coming. And you got 1333 01:15:36,439 --> 01:15:39,800 Speaker 4: some advantages in that that way in department too. But 1334 01:15:40,439 --> 01:15:46,840 Speaker 4: in those particular cases though, where it's real quiet like that, though, 1335 01:15:46,880 --> 01:15:49,800 Speaker 4: you want to pick your pathway of how you're moving 1336 01:15:49,840 --> 01:15:52,519 Speaker 4: through the timber in a way where they're probably going 1337 01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:54,640 Speaker 4: to land up in your lap or land in your 1338 01:15:54,720 --> 01:15:57,760 Speaker 4: lap on their own. Like if I'm going in and 1339 01:15:57,800 --> 01:16:01,040 Speaker 4: I got wind of what you describe earlier ten twelve, 1340 01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:04,200 Speaker 4: fifteen mile an hour in the timber, I'm not necessarily 1341 01:16:04,200 --> 01:16:06,160 Speaker 4: gonna be on where I think they're gonna be walking, 1342 01:16:06,120 --> 01:16:08,040 Speaker 4: and I might be a distance off trying to get 1343 01:16:08,040 --> 01:16:11,559 Speaker 4: a visual and then planing more for a stock approach. 1344 01:16:11,600 --> 01:16:14,639 Speaker 4: Whereas on those crispy mornings like that, you're not gonna 1345 01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:17,160 Speaker 4: get away with much either. So it's gonna you're gonna 1346 01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:18,960 Speaker 4: have the element to hear in them coming, but you're 1347 01:16:18,960 --> 01:16:21,799 Speaker 4: gonna want to be closer to the court, the natural 1348 01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:23,599 Speaker 4: cord or of how they maybe be moving. 1349 01:16:24,080 --> 01:16:27,080 Speaker 2: Yep, So do you pleat do you pre plan out 1350 01:16:27,240 --> 01:16:29,519 Speaker 2: a route like, Hey, I'm gonna follow this edge, or 1351 01:16:29,560 --> 01:16:32,240 Speaker 2: I'm gonna walk this pinch point, or I'm gonna cruise 1352 01:16:32,280 --> 01:16:34,680 Speaker 2: along the downwind side of this dough betting area or 1353 01:16:34,720 --> 01:16:36,679 Speaker 2: something like that. On a day like that. 1354 01:16:37,040 --> 01:16:40,120 Speaker 4: And not so much from the area, I might glance 1355 01:16:40,160 --> 01:16:42,240 Speaker 4: at it and kind of like roughly like I think 1356 01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:43,840 Speaker 4: I'm gonna move through it like this, But once I 1357 01:16:43,880 --> 01:16:49,000 Speaker 4: get in there, I might totally change what my premeditated, 1358 01:16:49,479 --> 01:16:52,000 Speaker 4: loose plan is. 1359 01:16:52,360 --> 01:16:53,599 Speaker 3: So any of those. 1360 01:16:55,000 --> 01:16:58,680 Speaker 4: Things that I gather from looking at an areil, I 1361 01:16:58,760 --> 01:17:03,400 Speaker 4: try to put that into a loose planned, but it could. 1362 01:17:03,960 --> 01:17:07,720 Speaker 4: I'm not going to stick to what because I don't 1363 01:17:07,720 --> 01:17:10,519 Speaker 4: want to call an aeral not real. But it's not 1364 01:17:10,600 --> 01:17:14,000 Speaker 4: as real as me being there in person and seeing 1365 01:17:14,760 --> 01:17:18,400 Speaker 4: every aspect of what I'm dealing with, So I want 1366 01:17:18,439 --> 01:17:21,080 Speaker 4: to I don't want to get too fixated. 1367 01:17:20,520 --> 01:17:25,519 Speaker 3: On what's not real. 1368 01:17:25,720 --> 01:17:27,720 Speaker 4: The aerial is real, but it doesn't give you as 1369 01:17:27,800 --> 01:17:31,760 Speaker 4: much as being there on site in person. So I 1370 01:17:31,800 --> 01:17:34,960 Speaker 4: want to keep that plan loose that I might be 1371 01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:37,000 Speaker 4: with if that makes sense. 1372 01:17:37,080 --> 01:17:40,200 Speaker 2: That doesn't make sense, Okay, I've got one last scenario 1373 01:17:40,400 --> 01:17:42,000 Speaker 2: and then I want to run you through like a 1374 01:17:42,040 --> 01:17:44,840 Speaker 2: set of rapid fire quick questions. Okay, so the final, 1375 01:17:45,040 --> 01:17:49,280 Speaker 2: this last scenario. Let's imagine you've been on this hunt. 1376 01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:54,680 Speaker 2: You're gonna we're gonna put you back in not necessarily Wisconsin, 1377 01:17:54,720 --> 01:17:57,760 Speaker 2: but we'll go kind of middle country, somewhere mixed AG, 1378 01:17:58,000 --> 01:18:01,240 Speaker 2: mixed whatever, and really the specifically the train don't matter. 1379 01:18:01,280 --> 01:18:05,880 Speaker 2: This one. You spot a good buck. He is on 1380 01:18:06,720 --> 01:18:10,320 Speaker 2: ground that you're not sure. Let me rephrase this. You 1381 01:18:10,360 --> 01:18:15,120 Speaker 2: are on a buck. He moves into ground that on 1382 01:18:15,160 --> 01:18:20,120 Speaker 2: your app shows public. So you say, ah, man, big 1383 01:18:20,160 --> 01:18:23,599 Speaker 2: giant shure buck on on X or whatever tool you're using, 1384 01:18:23,760 --> 01:18:26,479 Speaker 2: you see like, yep, he just crossed over into public. 1385 01:18:26,800 --> 01:18:30,160 Speaker 2: Game on, you cruise down the road where there's a spot, 1386 01:18:30,240 --> 01:18:31,880 Speaker 2: like there's a ditch along the road, but finally there's 1387 01:18:31,880 --> 01:18:34,559 Speaker 2: a spot you can pull off, and when you get 1388 01:18:34,600 --> 01:18:36,280 Speaker 2: to the spot, you can pull off onto the public 1389 01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:39,439 Speaker 2: to park. There's a bunch of no trespassing signs private 1390 01:18:39,439 --> 01:18:43,320 Speaker 2: property no trespassing signs there. So your map shows public 1391 01:18:44,520 --> 01:18:47,599 Speaker 2: on the ground though there's no trespassing private property signs, 1392 01:18:47,600 --> 01:18:50,120 Speaker 2: and your big buck is now cruising across this piece 1393 01:18:50,160 --> 01:18:52,160 Speaker 2: of potentially public land. 1394 01:18:52,560 --> 01:18:56,640 Speaker 4: What do you do, Well, you gotta confirm it. You know, 1395 01:18:56,720 --> 01:18:59,960 Speaker 4: I went through some stuff in twenty sixteen. Two scenarios. 1396 01:19:00,479 --> 01:19:02,280 Speaker 4: Never had an issue over the years, but I ran 1397 01:19:02,320 --> 01:19:09,240 Speaker 4: into two scenarios and I started to get very confident, 1398 01:19:10,240 --> 01:19:13,639 Speaker 4: and I should have double checked a little bit deeper. 1399 01:19:13,640 --> 01:19:17,320 Speaker 4: And there's some more to it. But and that information 1400 01:19:17,400 --> 01:19:19,719 Speaker 4: has gotten more and more concrete at the county level, 1401 01:19:19,760 --> 01:19:22,120 Speaker 4: which then you know, whether it's on X or any 1402 01:19:22,120 --> 01:19:24,519 Speaker 4: of the other map providers out there, then they get 1403 01:19:24,560 --> 01:19:27,799 Speaker 4: more concrete information, but they're getting it from the county. 1404 01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:30,440 Speaker 4: So the counties have gotten better. 1405 01:19:31,720 --> 01:19:32,240 Speaker 3: About that. 1406 01:19:32,520 --> 01:19:36,320 Speaker 4: So you got to In our latest video on Cuffed, 1407 01:19:36,600 --> 01:19:40,599 Speaker 4: we had a scenario that Matt was their filming and 1408 01:19:41,040 --> 01:19:45,799 Speaker 4: I had hunted this area before and it was broken 1409 01:19:45,880 --> 01:19:51,360 Speaker 4: up piece of public, piece of public over here, and 1410 01:19:51,400 --> 01:19:55,120 Speaker 4: this was always private in the past, and. 1411 01:19:57,360 --> 01:19:58,360 Speaker 3: So I'm banking on that. 1412 01:19:58,400 --> 01:20:00,000 Speaker 4: I haven't actually pulled up that side of the road 1413 01:20:00,160 --> 01:20:01,960 Speaker 4: yet we got the visual, and I hadn't been up 1414 01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:03,280 Speaker 4: the other side of the road yet. 1415 01:20:03,840 --> 01:20:08,280 Speaker 3: Well, we come around and. 1416 01:20:11,439 --> 01:20:14,320 Speaker 4: I had seen a sign from way out, like a 1417 01:20:14,360 --> 01:20:16,920 Speaker 4: mile out, but I didn't even register. Yeah, I just 1418 01:20:16,960 --> 01:20:20,360 Speaker 4: assumed it was a private because I had always been private. Well, 1419 01:20:20,400 --> 01:20:23,920 Speaker 4: then there was a bunch of walk in hunting. 1420 01:20:23,640 --> 01:20:26,360 Speaker 2: Signs I remember seeing this. Now, Yeah, there. 1421 01:20:26,320 --> 01:20:28,439 Speaker 4: Was a bunch of walk in hunting signs in which 1422 01:20:28,520 --> 01:20:31,840 Speaker 4: it had always been private. So it threw us for 1423 01:20:31,920 --> 01:20:33,960 Speaker 4: a loop because now I'm like, well, this big buck 1424 01:20:34,000 --> 01:20:39,000 Speaker 4: that was on private, then jumped on public, then got 1425 01:20:39,040 --> 01:20:42,519 Speaker 4: on private. But then as the direction he was going, 1426 01:20:42,560 --> 01:20:44,479 Speaker 4: there's another piece of public. So I was sure he 1427 01:20:44,520 --> 01:20:45,840 Speaker 4: was going to end up on that other piece of 1428 01:20:45,840 --> 01:20:49,479 Speaker 4: public and zip right through that private. Well, it turned 1429 01:20:49,520 --> 01:20:52,800 Speaker 4: out the whole thing had changed over to public over there, 1430 01:20:52,840 --> 01:20:55,720 Speaker 4: according to the signs. Well, then I pull up the 1431 01:20:55,760 --> 01:20:59,120 Speaker 4: map app from the state. This isn't from on X, 1432 01:20:59,439 --> 01:21:03,439 Speaker 4: this is direct leave from Kansas. It doesn't show it 1433 01:21:03,439 --> 01:21:07,320 Speaker 4: as public, and neither does the book I had, the 1434 01:21:07,360 --> 01:21:10,400 Speaker 4: printed book for that year doesn't show it as public. 1435 01:21:10,760 --> 01:21:16,320 Speaker 4: So now it's like, well, I got signs, it's always 1436 01:21:16,360 --> 01:21:17,439 Speaker 4: been private in the past. 1437 01:21:18,280 --> 01:21:18,960 Speaker 3: What do you do? 1438 01:21:19,160 --> 01:21:21,920 Speaker 4: I've got And in that particular case, there was two 1439 01:21:21,960 --> 01:21:29,080 Speaker 4: big bucks. One that was on what now appears to 1440 01:21:29,120 --> 01:21:32,200 Speaker 4: be public, but just off of what for surely is public. 1441 01:21:33,400 --> 01:21:36,760 Speaker 3: The other one had disappeared on. 1442 01:21:38,280 --> 01:21:41,639 Speaker 4: What is potentially public according to the signs, but had 1443 01:21:41,640 --> 01:21:45,160 Speaker 4: always been private. So now I'm in like this dilemma 1444 01:21:45,240 --> 01:21:48,640 Speaker 4: of like, well, we got to find out, but this 1445 01:21:48,680 --> 01:21:50,720 Speaker 4: could be awesome, but it would have been nice to 1446 01:21:50,760 --> 01:21:55,800 Speaker 4: know that earlier. And you know, we eventually did figure 1447 01:21:55,800 --> 01:21:58,040 Speaker 4: it out and it had all changed over to walk it, 1448 01:21:59,439 --> 01:21:59,760 Speaker 4: you know. 1449 01:22:00,360 --> 01:22:03,680 Speaker 2: So what's the best way really quick? I just I 1450 01:22:03,720 --> 01:22:05,400 Speaker 2: asked this because I think a lot of people are 1451 01:22:05,439 --> 01:22:08,759 Speaker 2: finding themselves in these scenarios now right where we're hunting 1452 01:22:08,760 --> 01:22:11,280 Speaker 2: new places and we live and die off of our phones. 1453 01:22:11,600 --> 01:22:14,240 Speaker 2: What's been the best way you've found to quickly confirm 1454 01:22:14,320 --> 01:22:16,120 Speaker 2: like yes or no on this being public or not? 1455 01:22:16,640 --> 01:22:17,160 Speaker 2: Who do you call? 1456 01:22:18,160 --> 01:22:20,280 Speaker 3: Well, in this particular case. 1457 01:22:22,320 --> 01:22:24,600 Speaker 4: With the Kansas walk in, and I went through this 1458 01:22:24,720 --> 01:22:30,720 Speaker 4: the season after twenty sixteen, I was in Kansas again 1459 01:22:30,760 --> 01:22:33,240 Speaker 4: and I was filming a couple of old guys, older guys, 1460 01:22:35,280 --> 01:22:38,559 Speaker 4: and we pieces marked as public. It's on the book, 1461 01:22:38,600 --> 01:22:41,559 Speaker 4: it's on the app from the State walk in. We 1462 01:22:41,680 --> 01:22:46,719 Speaker 4: go in there, it's opening day. See two big bucks, 1463 01:22:47,800 --> 01:22:51,920 Speaker 4: part of the public. It continued on that way. There 1464 01:22:52,000 --> 01:22:57,000 Speaker 4: was no fence line. As we come around this corner, 1465 01:22:57,400 --> 01:23:00,439 Speaker 4: the public land signs you'd never guess it, showing it 1466 01:23:01,080 --> 01:23:04,320 Speaker 4: by signage and by the app and by the mapp 1467 01:23:04,920 --> 01:23:10,559 Speaker 4: from the state it's public. So we watched this big 1468 01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:12,759 Speaker 4: buck and he looked like he was probably a booner. 1469 01:23:12,960 --> 01:23:14,479 Speaker 4: And then there was one hundred and forty in sure 1470 01:23:14,520 --> 01:23:17,920 Speaker 4: with him. They dipped into this. 1471 01:23:17,160 --> 01:23:20,880 Speaker 3: This dry draw excuse. 1472 01:23:20,439 --> 01:23:23,599 Speaker 4: Me, and we had dropped off one of the old 1473 01:23:23,640 --> 01:23:25,640 Speaker 4: guys's son on the other end of the piece, and 1474 01:23:25,680 --> 01:23:28,679 Speaker 4: he was kind of slow making his way through from 1475 01:23:28,720 --> 01:23:31,639 Speaker 4: this direction, and we're going to meet up with him 1476 01:23:31,680 --> 01:23:36,600 Speaker 4: and then maybe hit this part that continued, So we 1477 01:23:36,640 --> 01:23:38,800 Speaker 4: went down. They eventually made their way. We went down 1478 01:23:38,800 --> 01:23:42,680 Speaker 4: to meet him and as we're and we're all excited, 1479 01:23:42,720 --> 01:23:44,800 Speaker 4: like we got two big Bucks. They're in a draw. 1480 01:23:45,000 --> 01:23:48,280 Speaker 4: It's a thin draw. I think we can good chance 1481 01:23:48,320 --> 01:23:51,840 Speaker 4: we can get both bucks. One of them's a tank. 1482 01:23:53,200 --> 01:23:58,280 Speaker 4: And there was a big pond between us and the Bucks, 1483 01:23:58,479 --> 01:24:01,360 Speaker 4: and so we needed to kind of go around it. Well, 1484 01:24:01,400 --> 01:24:07,080 Speaker 4: as we went around it, I see this red sign 1485 01:24:07,560 --> 01:24:11,800 Speaker 4: and I'm filming, and I'm like, I know what the 1486 01:24:11,840 --> 01:24:16,720 Speaker 4: red sign usually means, no longer in walking, but I 1487 01:24:16,800 --> 01:24:20,080 Speaker 4: wanted the reaction from the old guys to catch so 1488 01:24:20,160 --> 01:24:22,880 Speaker 4: I didn't say anything. You know, they were gonna see 1489 01:24:22,920 --> 01:24:27,000 Speaker 4: it in three seconds. So but I'm like, in my head, 1490 01:24:27,000 --> 01:24:31,599 Speaker 4: I'm like, what is going on? If that pond hadn't 1491 01:24:31,640 --> 01:24:35,080 Speaker 4: been there, we would have vlined right to those big 1492 01:24:35,120 --> 01:24:41,080 Speaker 4: Bucks and shot them. And this had come up earlier 1493 01:24:41,120 --> 01:24:43,320 Speaker 4: in the bostseason, probably an hour and a half away. 1494 01:24:43,640 --> 01:24:45,920 Speaker 4: I was with Matt on that hunt. A piece that 1495 01:24:45,960 --> 01:24:49,080 Speaker 4: had always been public was marked as public walking on 1496 01:24:49,200 --> 01:24:52,800 Speaker 4: the map from the state and on their app. I 1497 01:24:52,880 --> 01:24:57,040 Speaker 4: have their app on my phone. It come out a 1498 01:24:57,120 --> 01:25:01,160 Speaker 4: week before right during the run, got pulled out a 1499 01:25:01,200 --> 01:25:04,040 Speaker 4: walk in. They didn't pull the signs down on one road. 1500 01:25:04,080 --> 01:25:06,160 Speaker 4: I sat there for three hours. It was a morning 1501 01:25:06,160 --> 01:25:08,760 Speaker 4: that I decided I can see a long ways. I'm 1502 01:25:08,760 --> 01:25:11,320 Speaker 4: gonna hang out here for three hours and just watch 1503 01:25:11,360 --> 01:25:14,360 Speaker 4: from the vehicle and see if a buck pops up 1504 01:25:14,400 --> 01:25:17,800 Speaker 4: out any of these draws, public signs, public on the map, 1505 01:25:18,200 --> 01:25:22,400 Speaker 4: public in the book, all from the state. Eventually I 1506 01:25:22,439 --> 01:25:24,200 Speaker 4: caught one that looked like it could be a shooter 1507 01:25:24,280 --> 01:25:25,439 Speaker 4: way over by the other road. 1508 01:25:25,520 --> 01:25:28,679 Speaker 3: We drive around the other road a red sign. 1509 01:25:29,320 --> 01:25:33,040 Speaker 4: I'm like, what so in that particular case, I eventually 1510 01:25:33,160 --> 01:25:36,360 Speaker 4: I first tracked down the game warden. He didn't know 1511 01:25:36,439 --> 01:25:41,240 Speaker 4: much about it, which you know, it's not his department 1512 01:25:41,479 --> 01:25:43,720 Speaker 4: to necessarily know, but he got me in contact. That 1513 01:25:43,760 --> 01:25:46,240 Speaker 4: was a Saturday. I was actually quite impressed. But he 1514 01:25:46,320 --> 01:25:48,040 Speaker 4: ended up getting me in contact with the head of 1515 01:25:48,040 --> 01:25:51,800 Speaker 4: the walk in program at the state. And I wasn't 1516 01:25:52,000 --> 01:25:55,000 Speaker 4: too thrilled because I started to put some things together 1517 01:25:55,120 --> 01:25:57,880 Speaker 4: and there was three parcels of property, one of which 1518 01:25:57,920 --> 01:26:00,479 Speaker 4: I was on two days before that. Now I pulled 1519 01:26:00,560 --> 01:26:04,680 Speaker 4: up to and there's a red sign there, and two 1520 01:26:04,760 --> 01:26:09,360 Speaker 4: days ago there wasn't. So I'm not in a real 1521 01:26:09,360 --> 01:26:11,839 Speaker 4: good state coming out of what happened in twenty sixteen. 1522 01:26:12,200 --> 01:26:16,880 Speaker 4: And all the information's coming from the state and he 1523 01:26:17,000 --> 01:26:21,680 Speaker 4: clarified all three pieces. He said, Okay, the guys that 1524 01:26:21,760 --> 01:26:24,360 Speaker 4: put the signs out on this one, that's actually not right. 1525 01:26:25,320 --> 01:26:31,120 Speaker 4: That's actually still public. And I'm like okay, and he's like, yeah, 1526 01:26:30,960 --> 01:26:33,799 Speaker 4: the other piece that came out here over the last week, 1527 01:26:34,200 --> 01:26:36,000 Speaker 4: but they probably didn't get the signs up on the 1528 01:26:36,040 --> 01:26:43,040 Speaker 4: other road. And I'm like, that's that's neat. So if 1529 01:26:43,040 --> 01:26:45,360 Speaker 4: I'd walked in from that other road, technically i'd have 1530 01:26:45,400 --> 01:26:48,840 Speaker 4: been according to your maps and the signs, I would 1531 01:26:48,880 --> 01:26:50,439 Speaker 4: have been legal. But it's. 1532 01:26:51,920 --> 01:26:53,960 Speaker 3: If it's pulled out, it's pulled out, you know. 1533 01:26:54,479 --> 01:26:57,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, But how can anyone expect folks to know that 1534 01:26:57,200 --> 01:26:58,719 Speaker 2: in the situation like that, That's crazy. 1535 01:26:58,760 --> 01:27:02,120 Speaker 4: Well, and I was very frustrated because back in Wisconsin, 1536 01:27:02,160 --> 01:27:05,240 Speaker 4: when I used to hunt all them MFL grounds and 1537 01:27:05,600 --> 01:27:08,960 Speaker 4: forest crop lands before they were ever mapped, I for 1538 01:27:09,080 --> 01:27:12,639 Speaker 4: several counties went through and made my own Google maps 1539 01:27:14,120 --> 01:27:16,600 Speaker 4: with the lines of the parcel, so I had it 1540 01:27:16,680 --> 01:27:18,840 Speaker 4: right on my phone before the maps had come out. 1541 01:27:18,920 --> 01:27:21,840 Speaker 4: For all these counties. I'd go in and plot the coordinates, 1542 01:27:22,880 --> 01:27:25,360 Speaker 4: is what I'd do. So I had that access. So 1543 01:27:25,400 --> 01:27:30,840 Speaker 4: when it comes to in this case, Kansas there, I 1544 01:27:30,880 --> 01:27:35,559 Speaker 4: would have their Google Earth created maps of their walk 1545 01:27:35,600 --> 01:27:38,920 Speaker 4: in on my phone, and I know how quick and 1546 01:27:38,960 --> 01:27:41,680 Speaker 4: easy because once I got that those maps created on 1547 01:27:41,720 --> 01:27:44,160 Speaker 4: my end for Wisconsin, it was really easy the next 1548 01:27:44,240 --> 01:27:46,880 Speaker 4: year to just go through and confirm if any came 1549 01:27:46,880 --> 01:27:49,360 Speaker 4: out at the end of the year, and then Uptown 1550 01:27:49,479 --> 01:27:49,840 Speaker 4: came out. 1551 01:27:51,120 --> 01:27:53,120 Speaker 3: It's an eyeball on that layer. 1552 01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:55,720 Speaker 4: You turn it off, update your map, and boom that 1553 01:27:55,760 --> 01:27:58,840 Speaker 4: parcel's no longer in right, And so I kind of 1554 01:27:58,920 --> 01:28:01,559 Speaker 4: was like, well, I cannot stand the book being printed. 1555 01:28:03,080 --> 01:28:04,559 Speaker 3: You know, I was like two things. 1556 01:28:04,640 --> 01:28:07,360 Speaker 4: I think once it goes into walking, you got to 1557 01:28:07,520 --> 01:28:10,920 Speaker 4: you know, guys are coming from non resident spending five 1558 01:28:10,960 --> 01:28:13,920 Speaker 4: hundred dollars. They're expecting your book to be accurate. So 1559 01:28:13,960 --> 01:28:17,559 Speaker 4: if you're pulling out Walkin's partially through the season at 1560 01:28:17,800 --> 01:28:20,320 Speaker 4: any moment's glass and you've got a printed book here 1561 01:28:20,360 --> 01:28:22,639 Speaker 4: that says it's public, it creates a lot of confusion. 1562 01:28:23,760 --> 01:28:27,599 Speaker 4: And I'm like, so I think that maybe once it's 1563 01:28:27,680 --> 01:28:29,599 Speaker 4: entered into walking, it can't come out till the first 1564 01:28:29,600 --> 01:28:30,000 Speaker 4: of the year. 1565 01:28:30,439 --> 01:28:32,280 Speaker 3: It would maybe be a good policy. 1566 01:28:32,640 --> 01:28:36,160 Speaker 4: And then if we can't do that, maybe at least 1567 01:28:36,240 --> 01:28:40,120 Speaker 4: update the maybe at least update the Google earth Maps, 1568 01:28:40,160 --> 01:28:42,880 Speaker 4: because that's instant, you know. I mean that takes five 1569 01:28:42,960 --> 01:28:45,880 Speaker 4: seconds to I shouldn't say five, but thirty seconds to 1570 01:28:45,920 --> 01:28:48,599 Speaker 4: go in there and you save the new kl kml 1571 01:28:48,720 --> 01:28:53,360 Speaker 4: or kmz file and boom. At least guys using not 1572 01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:56,520 Speaker 4: now have accurate So I've ran into a few scenarios 1573 01:28:57,200 --> 01:29:02,080 Speaker 4: of that. Now. I had those two and no trouble 1574 01:29:02,479 --> 01:29:06,519 Speaker 4: came about of those. They were caught in time and 1575 01:29:06,640 --> 01:29:08,840 Speaker 4: he confirmed the piece that I had been on two 1576 01:29:08,920 --> 01:29:11,240 Speaker 4: days or three days before that is I was still 1577 01:29:11,280 --> 01:29:16,880 Speaker 4: good then, but you know it, it could have been 1578 01:29:16,920 --> 01:29:18,920 Speaker 4: really bad, especially in the case that them two older 1579 01:29:18,920 --> 01:29:21,280 Speaker 4: guys with them two big bucks in that draw that 1580 01:29:21,320 --> 01:29:24,040 Speaker 4: pond hadn't been there, we'd have went right in there 1581 01:29:24,040 --> 01:29:26,320 Speaker 4: and probably I mean it was set up pretty well 1582 01:29:26,400 --> 01:29:28,839 Speaker 4: to get to get one or two. 1583 01:29:28,840 --> 01:29:31,360 Speaker 3: Out of there, and then it's like what you know, 1584 01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:32,759 Speaker 3: So I mean. 1585 01:29:34,280 --> 01:29:38,559 Speaker 4: That one with matt in in uncuffed, it was you know, 1586 01:29:39,479 --> 01:29:43,440 Speaker 4: you know, they didn't change anything from from those situations 1587 01:29:43,479 --> 01:29:47,280 Speaker 4: that happened years ago where I contacted them, Like they 1588 01:29:47,280 --> 01:29:49,519 Speaker 4: can still pull them walk ins out at any point 1589 01:29:49,520 --> 01:29:53,439 Speaker 4: in time. And and you can't trust their Google earth Maps, 1590 01:29:54,120 --> 01:29:59,559 Speaker 4: and you can't trust their printed maps because they they 1591 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:03,080 Speaker 4: I don't have that, they don't have it implemented on 1592 01:30:03,320 --> 01:30:06,200 Speaker 4: to like the first of the year. See, like in Wisconsin, 1593 01:30:06,880 --> 01:30:09,639 Speaker 4: it wouldn't matter if it changed ownership or not. You're 1594 01:30:09,680 --> 01:30:13,800 Speaker 4: in contract, and you know, with those programs, and so 1595 01:30:13,920 --> 01:30:19,080 Speaker 4: they they didn't have an option to till the first 1596 01:30:19,120 --> 01:30:23,680 Speaker 4: of the year. They couldn't be so even if a 1597 01:30:23,680 --> 01:30:26,800 Speaker 4: new owner came in and bought that piece, if they 1598 01:30:26,840 --> 01:30:28,479 Speaker 4: were part of that program, they had to wait till 1599 01:30:28,479 --> 01:30:30,320 Speaker 4: the end of the year to pull it out of 1600 01:30:30,320 --> 01:30:33,280 Speaker 4: that program. And so that kept it pretty clean on 1601 01:30:33,320 --> 01:30:37,320 Speaker 4: that front. So it can get messy out you know. 1602 01:30:37,400 --> 01:30:40,040 Speaker 4: I mean I've run into guys. I mean, even what 1603 01:30:40,160 --> 01:30:44,559 Speaker 4: happened in twenty sixteen therein you know, in Minnesota, that 1604 01:30:44,600 --> 01:30:47,519 Speaker 4: should have never happened. Yeah, I should have done somewhere digging, 1605 01:30:47,600 --> 01:30:49,880 Speaker 4: but that should have never never happened. There should have 1606 01:30:49,880 --> 01:30:53,559 Speaker 4: been signs put up that was marked wrong. And those 1607 01:30:53,600 --> 01:30:55,960 Speaker 4: people knew that, and so did the game word and 1608 01:30:56,400 --> 01:30:59,360 Speaker 4: that information got back to me. I had somebody that 1609 01:30:59,439 --> 01:31:01,880 Speaker 4: detected that in my video and they come up to 1610 01:31:01,920 --> 01:31:04,439 Speaker 4: me and they said I was bow hunting that, and 1611 01:31:04,600 --> 01:31:06,600 Speaker 4: I thought the same thing. After a few times and 1612 01:31:06,600 --> 01:31:10,000 Speaker 4: they're like, something's not right, and they identified exactly what 1613 01:31:10,080 --> 01:31:12,320 Speaker 4: peace without me telling them and who the warden was, 1614 01:31:12,400 --> 01:31:13,439 Speaker 4: and that. 1615 01:31:13,360 --> 01:31:15,720 Speaker 3: Threw me for a loop because he told me. 1616 01:31:15,800 --> 01:31:18,879 Speaker 4: He said, well, the warden told me that that's not public, 1617 01:31:19,720 --> 01:31:22,800 Speaker 4: and I was like, well, the wharton told us he 1618 01:31:22,800 --> 01:31:25,519 Speaker 4: didn't know anything about it, and that was after you 1619 01:31:26,320 --> 01:31:33,040 Speaker 4: So what was going on there? You know? You know that, yeah, 1620 01:31:33,080 --> 01:31:35,120 Speaker 4: there was I should have done some more thorough but 1621 01:31:35,240 --> 01:31:39,760 Speaker 4: I mean that I looked at everything and that it 1622 01:31:40,240 --> 01:31:43,880 Speaker 4: was there was some responsibility on other parties there on 1623 01:31:43,920 --> 01:31:46,200 Speaker 4: that particular one too, that would have made. 1624 01:31:46,080 --> 01:31:48,440 Speaker 3: It pretty. 1625 01:31:50,600 --> 01:31:54,439 Speaker 4: There was multiple instances of other people hunting that ground 1626 01:31:54,439 --> 01:31:55,800 Speaker 4: that thought it was public that year. 1627 01:32:09,320 --> 01:32:11,760 Speaker 2: Man, Well, I think it's all. It's all a good 1628 01:32:11,840 --> 01:32:15,360 Speaker 2: reminder to just double check, right, I mean, that's that's 1629 01:32:15,400 --> 01:32:19,320 Speaker 2: the thing is, like, it's with all these regulations, I 1630 01:32:19,320 --> 01:32:23,320 Speaker 2: find myself always trying to remind myself, like double check, 1631 01:32:23,600 --> 01:32:26,479 Speaker 2: see if anything change, make sure this actually matches up, 1632 01:32:26,560 --> 01:32:29,200 Speaker 2: make sure the map matches, the website matches, the whatever, 1633 01:32:29,280 --> 01:32:32,560 Speaker 2: because there is unfortunately, there's a lot of things to 1634 01:32:32,640 --> 01:32:36,320 Speaker 2: keep track of, and in the end, if someone wants 1635 01:32:36,320 --> 01:32:38,200 Speaker 2: to give you a hard time, it's going to fall 1636 01:32:38,240 --> 01:32:40,000 Speaker 2: on you. So that's a good. 1637 01:32:41,760 --> 01:32:44,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's one thing. You know. 1638 01:32:44,800 --> 01:32:48,479 Speaker 4: It's written in a way where it's your responsibility. So 1639 01:32:48,640 --> 01:32:50,719 Speaker 4: even if the signs are up that show at public 1640 01:32:50,760 --> 01:32:54,679 Speaker 4: even if you have the state maps, uh, it's still 1641 01:32:54,680 --> 01:32:57,519 Speaker 4: your responsibility the way the law is written, which is 1642 01:32:57,680 --> 01:33:00,560 Speaker 4: very frustrating if you end up in one of those situations, 1643 01:33:00,760 --> 01:33:06,720 Speaker 4: you know. So we we had that situation. Nothing really 1644 01:33:06,760 --> 01:33:08,600 Speaker 4: came about of it, but it would have been a 1645 01:33:08,640 --> 01:33:12,000 Speaker 4: really bad deal on the ride and where the refuge 1646 01:33:12,040 --> 01:33:14,719 Speaker 4: wasn't marked as refuge. It was marked as public hunting 1647 01:33:14,840 --> 01:33:18,360 Speaker 4: from Iowa DNR map that we had, and they didn't 1648 01:33:18,360 --> 01:33:19,800 Speaker 4: have signs up marking it. 1649 01:33:19,960 --> 01:33:21,360 Speaker 3: We went in by boat. 1650 01:33:21,680 --> 01:33:24,599 Speaker 4: We went in by boat, had never hunted there before, 1651 01:33:24,640 --> 01:33:27,360 Speaker 4: but oh, all this public acres, We'll go in by boat. 1652 01:33:28,760 --> 01:33:30,479 Speaker 3: Spot one hundred and forty five inch. 1653 01:33:30,520 --> 01:33:32,680 Speaker 4: We were having a pretty tough hunt already, and that's 1654 01:33:32,720 --> 01:33:34,400 Speaker 4: why we were cruising. We were an hour and a 1655 01:33:34,439 --> 01:33:37,479 Speaker 4: half two hours from where we normally are, and there 1656 01:33:37,760 --> 01:33:39,719 Speaker 4: was a couple of questions earlier that day on pieces 1657 01:33:39,720 --> 01:33:43,240 Speaker 4: that we called in another county award to get clarity on, 1658 01:33:43,720 --> 01:33:47,400 Speaker 4: and in that particular case, we're boom parked, spotted this 1659 01:33:47,439 --> 01:33:50,040 Speaker 4: big buck parked the boat on the beach, and we're 1660 01:33:50,760 --> 01:33:52,720 Speaker 4: going up the beach and we're getting pretty close to 1661 01:33:52,760 --> 01:33:55,839 Speaker 4: where we're in kill zone, Like we're I think sixty 1662 01:33:55,880 --> 01:33:58,320 Speaker 4: seventy yards out from this buck in the weeds. Turn 1663 01:33:58,400 --> 01:33:59,920 Speaker 4: back and look, and there's a guy and a dog 1664 01:34:00,520 --> 01:34:04,840 Speaker 4: over by our boat, and he's walking towards us, and 1665 01:34:04,880 --> 01:34:08,000 Speaker 4: we kind of realize, we're like, we need to get 1666 01:34:08,040 --> 01:34:10,240 Speaker 4: him stopped or we're gonna blow this stock. So chance 1667 01:34:10,280 --> 01:34:13,599 Speaker 4: he goes, you know, sneaking back, and I go with 1668 01:34:13,680 --> 01:34:16,880 Speaker 4: him to film this, you know, like, hey, we're on 1669 01:34:16,960 --> 01:34:19,120 Speaker 4: a buck. Turns out it's a gaateboard and we're on 1670 01:34:19,160 --> 01:34:22,800 Speaker 4: a refuge. If he would have stopped, if you would 1671 01:34:22,800 --> 01:34:25,680 Speaker 4: have stayed at the boat and not killmar away, we 1672 01:34:25,680 --> 01:34:28,280 Speaker 4: would have killed that buck right right in front of him, 1673 01:34:28,800 --> 01:34:31,519 Speaker 4: right in front of him, and never knew. And when 1674 01:34:31,520 --> 01:34:34,519 Speaker 4: I went down there, you know, of course, they make 1675 01:34:34,600 --> 01:34:36,840 Speaker 4: up a lot of excuses of why it, you know, 1676 01:34:36,880 --> 01:34:38,600 Speaker 4: and in my mind, I'm like, there's no excuse. A 1677 01:34:38,640 --> 01:34:40,840 Speaker 4: refuge is not refuge if it's not if it's not 1678 01:34:40,960 --> 01:34:43,360 Speaker 4: marked that way on a map and signs. I went 1679 01:34:43,400 --> 01:34:45,880 Speaker 4: down there and did a range fine, because they say, well, 1680 01:34:45,920 --> 01:34:49,360 Speaker 4: there's signs. The closest sign to the water's edge was 1681 01:34:49,360 --> 01:34:51,639 Speaker 4: one hundred and fifty seven yards up in the timber. 1682 01:34:52,960 --> 01:34:54,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's tough. 1683 01:34:54,680 --> 01:34:57,559 Speaker 4: It's tough to have a refuge if you got marked 1684 01:34:57,560 --> 01:35:01,880 Speaker 4: on the map otherwise, you know. So, oh, you know, 1685 01:35:02,080 --> 01:35:06,240 Speaker 4: I mean, nothing serious came about of. 1686 01:35:06,120 --> 01:35:09,920 Speaker 2: That, but I was like, yeah, stressful. 1687 01:35:10,360 --> 01:35:12,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, so you know, and I've heard stories of of 1688 01:35:13,320 --> 01:35:17,200 Speaker 4: you know, and I think overall things are getting getting better, 1689 01:35:17,240 --> 01:35:20,120 Speaker 4: you know. I a few years later, I h I 1690 01:35:20,160 --> 01:35:22,840 Speaker 4: saw some changes on some some of the different apps 1691 01:35:22,880 --> 01:35:25,559 Speaker 4: and things where it told me they're getting more accurate 1692 01:35:25,560 --> 01:35:28,280 Speaker 4: information from the county level and that and that's to 1693 01:35:28,320 --> 01:35:30,400 Speaker 4: be expected that things get more and more refined. 1694 01:35:30,920 --> 01:35:32,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I got to believe that now there's more 1695 01:35:32,680 --> 01:35:35,439 Speaker 2: and more people doing this kind of thing and looking 1696 01:35:35,439 --> 01:35:38,400 Speaker 2: into these kinds of things. I think probably the various 1697 01:35:38,400 --> 01:35:42,599 Speaker 2: government officials are finding these oversights and realizing, oh wow, yeah, 1698 01:35:42,720 --> 01:35:44,560 Speaker 2: there are people actually wanting to come in here, and 1699 01:35:44,960 --> 01:35:48,479 Speaker 2: we don't have it properly signed or labeled. So so 1700 01:35:48,479 --> 01:35:52,479 Speaker 2: hopefully this stuff gets fixed. Hopefully, uh, hopefully things become 1701 01:35:52,479 --> 01:35:55,040 Speaker 2: a little bit more clear, because it can get very 1702 01:35:55,080 --> 01:35:56,080 Speaker 2: confusing out there. 1703 01:35:56,400 --> 01:35:59,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it can't. And then every state's different, you know. 1704 01:35:59,760 --> 01:36:01,839 Speaker 4: You know how it is in the West, where it's 1705 01:36:03,320 --> 01:36:06,320 Speaker 4: you're you're come across, there's fence lines and stuff all 1706 01:36:06,360 --> 01:36:08,479 Speaker 4: the time, and that doesn't mean that it's a property line. 1707 01:36:08,560 --> 01:36:10,800 Speaker 4: A lot of times that public continues, whereas like in 1708 01:36:10,840 --> 01:36:14,200 Speaker 4: the Midwest, you come across a fence line and almost 1709 01:36:14,240 --> 01:36:17,479 Speaker 4: always that's a property line, and so it can get 1710 01:36:17,720 --> 01:36:20,760 Speaker 4: it can get pretty you know. Well, you've got a 1711 01:36:20,760 --> 01:36:22,840 Speaker 4: lot of experience by this point, and a lot of 1712 01:36:22,880 --> 01:36:26,240 Speaker 4: these different states too, to have seen how things change 1713 01:36:26,280 --> 01:36:27,560 Speaker 4: from state to state. 1714 01:36:27,479 --> 01:36:31,519 Speaker 2: And yep, you just gotta gotta stay up on it, 1715 01:36:31,560 --> 01:36:35,280 Speaker 2: do your best, right, all right, I'm gonna let you 1716 01:36:35,320 --> 01:36:38,759 Speaker 2: go here, Jared, with final few rapid fire quick questions. 1717 01:36:38,800 --> 01:36:41,799 Speaker 2: You're allowed just like a one word answer to the okay, okay, 1718 01:36:42,640 --> 01:36:44,599 Speaker 2: just first thought right off the bat, here we go. 1719 01:36:45,120 --> 01:36:47,920 Speaker 2: Does the moon matter to deer movement?

Okay. 1762 01:38:46,040 --> 01:38:48,920 Speaker 2: But here's the trick. You only have one day to 1763 01:38:48,960 --> 01:38:52,880 Speaker 2: get this done, in one place to do it. So 1764 01:38:52,960 --> 01:38:55,719 Speaker 2: I need you to pick the date on the calendar 1765 01:38:56,160 --> 01:38:58,360 Speaker 2: that you think you'd have your very best chance to 1766 01:38:58,439 --> 01:39:01,280 Speaker 2: kill a mature buck. And I need you to describe 1767 01:39:01,280 --> 01:39:04,320 Speaker 2: for me the location that you would set yourself down on. 1768 01:39:05,560 --> 01:39:07,120 Speaker 2: Now you're a little bit different. A lot of guys 1769 01:39:07,120 --> 01:39:09,040 Speaker 2: would pick like a tree stand in a certain kind 1770 01:39:09,080 --> 01:39:10,800 Speaker 2: of zone. I know you're different, so I'll let you 1771 01:39:10,880 --> 01:39:13,280 Speaker 2: like you can. I'll pick the spot you want to 1772 01:39:13,280 --> 01:39:15,800 Speaker 2: be dropped off at. You have to be on foot. 1773 01:39:16,840 --> 01:39:18,479 Speaker 2: You can describe to me what kind of spot you 1774 01:39:18,520 --> 01:39:20,240 Speaker 2: want to be dropped off at and what kind of 1775 01:39:20,240 --> 01:39:23,720 Speaker 2: stuff's around you? All right, high stakes hunt, Give me 1776 01:39:23,760 --> 01:39:25,960 Speaker 2: the date and the situation to be dropped off at. 1777 01:39:26,960 --> 01:39:30,719 Speaker 3: I can pick the location, right. 1778 01:39:30,680 --> 01:39:33,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, yep, you can whatever location you want, Okay. 1779 01:39:33,800 --> 01:39:34,799 Speaker 3: I'd probably go. 1780 01:39:37,200 --> 01:39:45,639 Speaker 4: November twenty second, and I'd go Iowa, and the terrain 1781 01:39:45,720 --> 01:39:53,080 Speaker 4: would be wooded with mixed with some CRP grass, you know, 1782 01:39:54,120 --> 01:39:58,200 Speaker 4: button up to kind of an intermix of both. That's 1783 01:39:58,640 --> 01:39:59,519 Speaker 4: that's what I would do. 1784 01:40:00,479 --> 01:40:03,479 Speaker 2: And why why November twice second? That's later than a 1785 01:40:03,520 --> 01:40:07,240 Speaker 2: lot of guys pick, and and why mixed timber and 1786 01:40:07,280 --> 01:40:09,760 Speaker 2: cover in CRP versus like a wide open thing that 1787 01:40:09,800 --> 01:40:10,559 Speaker 2: we see so much? 1788 01:40:10,840 --> 01:40:14,240 Speaker 4: Okay, Well you said mature buck, right, yep? Okay, So 1789 01:40:14,560 --> 01:40:16,760 Speaker 4: in the early days, I maybe would have picked Kansas. 1790 01:40:17,400 --> 01:40:19,720 Speaker 4: But Kansas on the planes has gotten a lot more 1791 01:40:19,720 --> 01:40:23,160 Speaker 4: pressure and over the years, and so it can take 1792 01:40:23,200 --> 01:40:28,200 Speaker 4: several days to actually land a big buck visually a 1793 01:40:28,200 --> 01:40:31,360 Speaker 4: big mature buck on public in a good scenario to 1794 01:40:31,439 --> 01:40:36,200 Speaker 4: kill it. So not so much in the early days. 1795 01:40:36,200 --> 01:40:37,880 Speaker 4: And then you know, ten years ago, I probably would 1796 01:40:37,920 --> 01:40:41,439 Speaker 4: have picked Kansas in this in this particular scenario. The 1797 01:40:41,479 --> 01:40:46,240 Speaker 4: reason I went late in Iowa is because I would 1798 01:40:46,240 --> 01:40:50,439 Speaker 4: pick an area that has a lot of bucks and 1799 01:40:50,479 --> 01:40:55,080 Speaker 4: a lot of dose, and I could probably find a 1800 01:40:55,120 --> 01:41:01,120 Speaker 4: mature buck on that day around those dates within kind 1801 01:41:01,120 --> 01:41:06,960 Speaker 4: of what I laid out there, that's cruising or trying 1802 01:41:06,960 --> 01:41:09,160 Speaker 4: to find another dough. There's enough good bucks in that 1803 01:41:09,280 --> 01:41:13,639 Speaker 4: area and enough dose that some are probably still coming 1804 01:41:13,640 --> 01:41:18,320 Speaker 4: in and you know out and I would as far 1805 01:41:18,360 --> 01:41:21,120 Speaker 4: as like, we don't know what conditions we're going to 1806 01:41:21,200 --> 01:41:22,920 Speaker 4: get to deal with, whether we're going to get a 1807 01:41:22,920 --> 01:41:25,960 Speaker 4: lot of wind or not. So having timber as an 1808 01:41:26,000 --> 01:41:30,000 Speaker 4: option and grass as an option, I can work my eyes, 1809 01:41:30,080 --> 01:41:31,800 Speaker 4: I can get in the timber if I need to. 1810 01:41:33,800 --> 01:41:35,760 Speaker 4: And that's kind of what I did with a little 1811 01:41:35,760 --> 01:41:38,080 Speaker 4: bit of time I got last fall. And I did 1812 01:41:38,360 --> 01:41:42,760 Speaker 4: get on a shooter every day, so I didn't kill one, 1813 01:41:42,800 --> 01:41:46,479 Speaker 4: but I you know, I I also damn near had 1814 01:41:46,520 --> 01:41:49,840 Speaker 4: one hundred and seventy five inch typical in my lap too, so. 1815 01:41:53,400 --> 01:41:56,800 Speaker 3: You know, I had a good few days getting out there. 1816 01:41:56,880 --> 01:42:00,439 Speaker 4: But it was a situation much like I described, and 1817 01:42:00,479 --> 01:42:05,680 Speaker 4: so that's that's why I went. I kind of digested 1818 01:42:05,720 --> 01:42:10,120 Speaker 4: it after, like I wasn't quite expecting that, but I 1819 01:42:10,200 --> 01:42:13,559 Speaker 4: dissected all the different factors after I seen what I've 1820 01:42:13,600 --> 01:42:17,839 Speaker 4: seen as to why that was really good for. 1821 01:42:17,680 --> 01:42:21,840 Speaker 2: Me, So it makes sense. So yeah, all right, what 1822 01:42:21,880 --> 01:42:24,360 Speaker 2: I would do? I like it. I like the plan. 1823 01:42:24,600 --> 01:42:28,600 Speaker 2: I think it'll work. Hopefully you'll never find yourself in 1824 01:42:28,640 --> 01:42:30,400 Speaker 2: a situation like that where you only have one day 1825 01:42:30,439 --> 01:42:34,719 Speaker 2: to get it done and uh, such igh stakes. But uh, 1826 01:42:35,040 --> 01:42:38,200 Speaker 2: but tell me this last thing. What should folks be 1827 01:42:38,240 --> 01:42:41,280 Speaker 2: looking forward to from White Tail Adrenaline? Uh, in the 1828 01:42:41,400 --> 01:42:43,800 Speaker 2: in the short term or in the long term. Anything 1829 01:42:43,840 --> 01:42:46,000 Speaker 2: you want folks to know about anything people should be 1830 01:42:46,040 --> 01:42:48,720 Speaker 2: checking out right now as they listen to this. What 1831 01:42:48,760 --> 01:42:49,479 Speaker 2: do you want people to know? 1832 01:42:50,920 --> 01:42:54,599 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, we're as far as the next film goes. 1833 01:42:54,800 --> 01:42:58,559 Speaker 4: It's very far along in production. It still has some 1834 01:42:58,680 --> 01:43:01,240 Speaker 4: time to go on it, but it to to really 1835 01:43:03,479 --> 01:43:06,679 Speaker 4: make it what it needs to be that people really 1836 01:43:06,760 --> 01:43:11,600 Speaker 4: like about our content, you know, it's it's gonna be 1837 01:43:11,800 --> 01:43:18,840 Speaker 4: an incredible set, a lot of really good hunts and 1838 01:43:18,960 --> 01:43:23,599 Speaker 4: really good bow hunts.
