I don't 24 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: know if it's a it's a relapse still or if 25 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: it's a um, you know, just new sickness after getting 26 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: home all that a nickness you think the rug rats 27 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 1: you know, can sometimes give you a new, new new strain. Well, 28 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: my wife was talking about this and she was like, 29 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: don't go over there and get sick and then bring 30 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 1: it home. Like I'm pretty sure I just had this, 31 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: so I probably can't get it, like right, I don't know. 32 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: You might have brought it over to us for me, 33 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:12,359 Speaker 1: who knows, I don't know.

You'd like to eat that stuff? 52 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,839 Speaker 1: You don't actually have a neck roast in the crock 53 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 1: pot right now?

Yeah, well, 56 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 1: this time of year, the neck roast on a buck 57 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 1: compared to a dough it's like four times So I uh, yeah, 58 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: I got a neck roast off of a buck the 59 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: other day and it's it literally had to take two 60 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: of them because you couldn't take the whole thing. It would. 61 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 1: I have a half of a neck roast in the 62 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: crock pot and it fills up my seven gallon crock 63 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: pot or whatever it is. I can't remember how big 64 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: it is, but um, that's wild, dude. It's a big 65 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: crock pot.

It's gonna 69 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: be new new fund state for me. I'm sad that 70 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: you have to we have to depart. We've been buck 71 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: trucking for so long ago. Oh man, well, uh that's 72 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: kinda we kind of planned it because uh I drew 73 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: a tag that you weren't gonna be able to draw 74 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: this year. And it's all right, we'll do the phone 75 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: consultation thing. I'm sure a few times. Um, you know what, 76 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 1: I don't another reason I hope that I feel better 77 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: because I don't like talking on my phone when I 78 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: feel bad, I don't want talking on the phone. So 79 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: I'm with you. Yeah, I just like I struggled, Like yesterday, Kaylee, 80 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: I was talking to her and she was like, you know, 81 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: I was like, man, I feel bad. She's when I 82 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: was like barely getting the words I was, and I 83 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: was just feeling bad. Man. It's like for some reason, 84 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: you just don't want to open your mouth. Maybe it's 85 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 1: because you know if you open it to wide, some 86 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 1: throw ups gonna come out of it and grows ned gumming. Yeah, 87 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: I know what you mean. I don't know. But the 88 00:04:55,600 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 1: weather has changed. Things are or busting, like. Uh, we 89 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: got some dudes, some camera guys that have been hunting 90 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: today since we're taking the day off. I guess you 91 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: could say, um and uh, they have been asking for 92 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: clown noses. Apparently there's some clown that you going on. 93 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,239 Speaker 1: We do this thing where we uh in the element 94 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 1: uh spheres. I guess you'd say that when you do 95 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 1: something kind of silly, kind of dumb, or just make 96 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: a mistake or just shoot yourself from the foot, it's 97 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: called clowning. And made some clowning going on, and you 98 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: bought some clown noses. We got some clown noses. You 99 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 1: might see those appearing a video maybe maybe, especially if 100 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: Mark comes in hunts with us. So I keep speaking clowning, 101 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 1: I keep clowning on Mark, and he hasn't talked to me, 102 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: uh in a while. Man defend himself on this, Yeah, 103 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:55,160 Speaker 1: sometimes defend himself in person in Texas. Yeah, I think 104 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: you'll should have a fight. I think we will. You 105 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: think it would be awesome. Dude, he's got the reach, 106 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 1: but you've got the hour to get up inside. You 107 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 1: know we're gonna do it. Cherokee leg wrestling, Yeah, show 108 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 1: like a Cherokee squad. It's a little different. Yeah, maybe 109 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 1: you all hear about that one of these days. Um, 110 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 1: but uh yeah, so um we uh, we got some 111 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: hunts coming up that are all over the country, and 112 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: I think that now would be a good time to 113 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 1: give out some encouragement. Man, Like, November is pretty much 114 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 1: halfway over the day this podcast releases, I believe is 115 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: the midway point. If you listen to this podcast at 116 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,719 Speaker 1: noon or after on the day it releases, um, you 117 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 1: will be halfway through November. And for some that's sad, 118 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: and for others that's like really exciting. I know that, Um, 119 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: the train of thought oftentimes kinda comes out of the Midwest, 120 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 1: And I know that you know, the Midwest a lot 121 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 1: of times hasn't these really strict rut dates. But you know, 122 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: two thirds of the White Tailed Country probably doesn't operate 123 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 1: within such a strict calendar of rut. So that's encouraging 124 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: for a lot of us where you know, there's more 125 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 1: mid to late November rut action some of these states, 126 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: especially as you push further south or December is coming 127 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: up for some of you guys, So the rut's gonna 128 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: get better. And that's one of the reasons we interview 129 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 1: people from all over the country. But even if you 130 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 1: are and one of those states that has like really 131 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: well defined rut dates, they still aren't uh poignant. Okay. 132 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: I was talking about this the other day. Um, the 133 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 1: bell curve is still a curve and it never touches 134 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: the top. Okay. So like there's not a day November 135 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: fourteenth or whatever peak breeding is, that's still not all 136 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: the breeding, right. There will be chasing and things going 137 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: wild way later than that. Tyler. For example, you hunted 138 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: Iowa in twenty nine team uh and went up after 139 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: what most people would consider peak rut dates, and you 140 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: shot a buck on what day he was going wild 141 00:07:55,960 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: after a dough November twenty one of November. Wow, I 142 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: didn't even realize it was that late. And this dude 143 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: put on the best show, probably of the wildest grunting 144 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: i've ever seen or heard when when he was coming 145 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: through the woods, I had seen. I had seen him. 146 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 1: Uh as soon as they came into vision, probably like 147 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: eighty yards away. They're actually crossing the county road, a 148 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: dirt road, and uh, they crossed this road. I see 149 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 1: him coming. I start getting my stuff ready, turn around 150 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: and get my bow and everything, and then uh, I 151 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:33,079 Speaker 1: think that I hear a dirt bike coming, and I'm like, 152 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: why is there somebody driving a dirt bike around right now? 153 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:37,960 Speaker 1: And I'm thinking it's about to ruin the whole deal, 154 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,080 Speaker 1: right Well, all of a sudden, I see the dough 155 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 1: come out and then I see the buck come out. 156 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 1: It's the buck and he's just like like loud and 157 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: long day and longer than that. Yeah, Yeah, it was crazy. 158 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: I thought it was a dirt bike coming. And so 159 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: actually the footage is on the Element YouTube channel.

I know you've been out there quite 225 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: a bit. Um. How is the hunting there in Illinois 226 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 1: right now? Yeah? It's uh man, it's cold this morning. 227 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: I think we got a couple of inches of snow. 228 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 1: Um that came in real early this morning, and so 229 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 1: I kind of got covered in that. But um, you 230 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: know it's it's been hit and miss. Uh. You know, 231 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: I think I got up here on Tuesday, or actually 232 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 1: Monday evening hunting. Tuesday had a really good day Tuesday, 233 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 1: bunch of chase and um, I saw a bunch of 234 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:49,559 Speaker 1: bucks and a couple of good deer. Um it got 235 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: kind of hot. Uh following that, I think Wednesday and Thursday, 236 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 1: so the deer movement kind of slowed down. Uh, you know, 237 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: we we stopped kind of seeing a lot of deer 238 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: in the afternoon. I saw a lot of movement in 239 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: the mornings, which is kind of to be expected whenever 240 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: the temps are up in the high seventies, low eighties. 241 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 1: And uh, and now that we've got some cold weather 242 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 1: that blew in yesterday, we're starting to see some more 243 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: deer move Yeah. Man, I would imagine how does that 244 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: snow affect what you do? Do you start look looking 245 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 1: at tracks more or you just kind of hindered by it, 246 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 1: or or how's that treat you? Yeah? I mean my 247 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 1: overall tactic right now has h has really been to 248 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 1: find dough bedding Um, I hunted in an area this 249 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: morning that was close to some food. UM, and what 250 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 1: I happened to notice, I saw a bunch of doughs, 251 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 1: um kind of moving in and out of bedding, and 252 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,719 Speaker 1: uh they were going to that food. Uh kind of 253 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: late morning after the snow kind of eased up. So 254 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 1: I just think, uh, when it starts getting drastically colder, Um, 255 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: the deer are gonna want to find food, especially the does. 256 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:56,839 Speaker 1: The bucks still have you know, the rut on their 257 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: mind and uh, but the dose that really still control everything. 258 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 1: So if you're kind of where the does want to 259 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: be and if that's near food, UM, you stand a 260 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: good chance of finding uh finding the bucks. Yeah. Cool. 261 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,839 Speaker 1: So does lockdown come into play very much for you 262 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: when you think about this time of year you still 263 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 1: just hunting normal rot patterns? Yeah, I'm I mean that's 264 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 1: one thing. I think we're kind of in that lockdown 265 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 1: period right now. Um. A good thing um about lockdown though, 266 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: is that if you're willing to stick it out and 267 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: sit in a tree for a lot of hours, UM, 268 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: you're gonna find uh, You're gonna find bucks that are 269 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: either still searching for dose or they just got off 270 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 1: of a dough and they're trying to find their next dough. 271 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 1: So really, for the next two to three weeks, even 272 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: even in the early December, I'm seeing a lot of 273 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 1: bucks that Um, they're still constantly running through the cycle 274 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: of finding the hottest dough and then you know, breaking 275 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: off of that one and then getting to the next 276 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 1: hot dough. So um, you know, if you're gonna put 277 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: your time in, they're still moving. It's still the rut 278 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 1: and there's still doze to be bred. So um, I 279 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 1: think even during the lockdown, you can find fine deer. Yeah, man, absolutely, 280 00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: if you, uh, we're gonna do all day type sits, 281 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: or would you spend time in the same tree or 282 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: would you kind of make in reposition midday? Yeah, if 283 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: I felt confident about the tree that I was in, 284 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 1: I'd probably sit there all day. Um. If if I 285 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 1: started seeing a pattern of movement where maybe the deer 286 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 1: or thirty forty yards off or outside of my my range, um, 287 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 1: you know, I might make a move um at that point. Um. 288 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: But really, if I'm if I'm confident and I've kind 289 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: of you know, sat the area before, I'll probably sit 290 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 1: there all day um and feel pretty fine. About it 291 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 1: cool man. So looking forward, Uh, as we roll into 292 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: like kind of this third week of November, how do 293 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 1: you feel the buck move It's gonna be in the 294 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: state Illinois. Yeah, I mean the forecast shows a lot 295 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 1: of really great weather. Um. So you know, I think 296 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 1: first and foremost the weather is the most important factor 297 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 1: outside of the rut um to get deer on their 298 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 1: feet and moving. Um. So with seeing the really good 299 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: weather ahead, UM, I think that you know, again, as 300 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: these bucks start getting off some some does uh, they'll 301 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 1: be searching again. UM. I would say kind of another 302 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 1: strategy of mine is I'm really looking at some overlooked 303 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 1: corridors um, and especially trying to be down wind of 304 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 1: dope betting. UM. I saw I had a lot of 305 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 1: success with that. Uh you know earlier in the week. Um. 306 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 1: You know, on a on a real wonky wind. It 307 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 1: was an east southeast wind, um, but it made sense 308 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: for where I was hunting. Um. So I think if 309 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: you can just be down down wind of the dope 310 00:16:56,120 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: betting um and maybe find like a pinch or uh 311 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: some kind of funnel or something that's going to restrict 312 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,400 Speaker 1: the movement, I think you can have a pretty good 313 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 1: sit especially even getting into uh, you know, Thanksgiving weekend 314 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,879 Speaker 1: and on uh, Like I said, there's still gonna be 315 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,479 Speaker 1: those that that will need to be bread and I 316 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: think that those bucks will will search that out for sure. 317 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,199 Speaker 1: Awesome man. Okay, So put a number between one and 318 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,479 Speaker 1: ten on what you think buck buck movement is going 319 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,919 Speaker 1: to be in the next week. Yeah. I'll probably be 320 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: a little bit more conservative than than uh a lot 321 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: of people would, would you know, probably be But I 322 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 1: think six to seven. Um, you may not see the 323 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 1: numbers of mature bucks, but um, there they'll be out 324 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 1: there moving somewhere. Those are good numbers. Man. I think, uh, 325 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 1: you know, conservative is a good move, especially whenever you 326 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 1: you're hunting some big deer. So, Anthony, I really appreciate 327 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 1: the time today, and I hope you kill a big 328 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 1: buck soon. Dude. Thanks man, I appreciate it. Here on 329 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 1: the phone, I've got a good friend of mine named 330 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 1: Dan Baylor. He has been hunting up in Kansas. Dan, 331 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,880 Speaker 1: what's happening, dude? And unless just trying to stay warm now, 332 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,199 Speaker 1: trying to stay warm and Nami bulletholes in you right, 333 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,120 Speaker 1: that's right? Yeah, man, have you been seeing some pressure 334 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 1: up there? In Kansas. Uh, yeah, there is a lot well, 335 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 1: you know, say a lot of pressure. It's just that 336 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 1: the the the amount of land that you can hunt, um, 337 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 1: that's available for just public hunting is few and far between. 338 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: So it doesn't take many hunters to create a lot 339 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,199 Speaker 1: of pressure. Yeah, I can imagine. Man, I've been up 340 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,160 Speaker 1: there and experienced a little bit of that myself. So, uh, 341 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,679 Speaker 1: you've been hunting up there the last week or so. UM, 342 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 1: just in general, how has it been? Is do you 343 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,439 Speaker 1: feel like it's been a good year? Um? You know, 344 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: yes and no. On the land that I have access to, UM, 345 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 1: I would say no, but but that's not necessarily indicative 346 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: of the dear movement. UM. I've seen a lot of 347 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: bucks moving on private land, a lot of nice bucks, um, 348 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 1: but just nothing, um, you know, nothing on any of 349 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 1: the public land that that I'm hunting. You know, Kansas 350 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: is kind of the epicenter of the extreme drought all 351 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,439 Speaker 1: that Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota through there. How has that 352 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 1: affected your your strategy this year? You know? Um, I 353 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: had planned on hunting water at least partial part of 354 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,160 Speaker 1: the time that I was gonna be here, and um, 355 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: there's some rain that came through the night before I 356 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 1: got here. But it's still dries. It's it's still really dry. 357 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 1: But but to be honest, it hasn't really factored into 358 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,679 Speaker 1: anything I've done. I've seen a lot of deer in 359 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 1: places that that there's no water around that I can 360 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 1: find anyway. Um and and so I don't I don't 361 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: know where or when they're getting water. But these deer 362 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 1: up here, they travel so far that, UM, I think 363 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 1: it's it's pretty tough to catch them when they're actually 364 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 1: on water. Yeah, I got you. So what was the 365 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 1: thing you were trying to catch deer on? Um? Well, really, uh, 366 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 1: just traveling back to and front um uh to and 367 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 1: from bed and um again, they since they traveled so far, uh, 368 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot of times they're getting back 369 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: to their bed late in the mornings, especially now now 370 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: that we're in the middle of November. Um, you know, 371 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: they're out chasing those and stuff and looking for those. 372 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: And the full moon doesn't necessarily help. But um, I 373 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,199 Speaker 1: don't think it hurts either as far as movement in 374 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 1: the mornings and um and and that seems to be 375 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 1: when when I've been seeing the most deer movement is 376 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: in the mornings. Do you think that has to do 377 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 1: with the just warmer temps that we weren't experiencing. Yeah, 378 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 1: I think so. And I think also the fact that 379 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,880 Speaker 1: the winds this past week, Uh, there was one day 380 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 1: the winds were gusting over fifty and they didn't lay 381 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,639 Speaker 1: down until, you know, well after dark, and so I 382 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 1: think it it really had the deer um bedded down 383 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 1: most of the day, and so I think they were 384 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: taking advantage at that time in the morning before the 385 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: winds were kicking up. Yeah. I can kinda see that too. 386 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 1: You know, those deer up there in plain states get 387 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 1: used to the wind, but fifty miles an hour is 388 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 1: still a lot no matter where you're at, you know, 389 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 1: so they'll uh, it'll it'll suppress some some. But I 390 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: think sometimes, um, you know, those do your function in 391 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 1: twenty to twenty five pretty often. So I think it's 392 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,880 Speaker 1: something to to not worry too much about, unless it's 393 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: like you're saying, those fifty mile our gust, then you 394 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: don't want to be in a tree anyways. That's right, 395 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:25,680 Speaker 1: I almost fell out. Where are you harness right? Yeah? Yeah, 396 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 1: so you actually found some success while you're up there, 397 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 1: even though you're met with some harsh conditions, right, I did. Yeah. Um, 398 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:37,119 Speaker 1: so I hunted pretty hard for the first five days 399 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: that I was here, and uh, after day two, I 400 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 1: did not have a buck in range and didn't see 401 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:48,159 Speaker 1: a shooter buck at all for for three days. Again. 402 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 1: Saw I saw several of them on private um, but 403 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 1: but nothing where I was hunting, and and and uh no, 404 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: no shooters for three days and then uh went back 405 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: to a piece that I was pretty familiar with. Actually 406 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 1: shot a deer there last year out of the same tree. Um. 407 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 1: And so I'm I'm two for two sitting in that 408 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 1: tree on killing bucks. May may have to try it 409 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 1: again sometime if I could manage to draw into the tag. 410 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:18,199 Speaker 1: But that's awesome. But yeah, and uh and not not 411 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,880 Speaker 1: a huge buck by any means. But I was able 412 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 1: to call him in and he was pretty fired up, 413 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 1: so I was. I was plenty happy with you. That's cool. 414 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,439 Speaker 1: What what calling method did you use? I grunted and 415 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 1: snort weaest and he and he he rubbed a tree 416 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: and then came right in and I put the show 417 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: on for you. Huh he did. That's fun, dude, that 418 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 1: is awesome. We'll congrats on the buck, dude. So, uh, 419 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 1: big changes happened across the central part of the US 420 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 1: this week. And uh, you know, as we look at 421 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 1: the third week in November, we're looking at like legit 422 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: good deer hunting temps you know, across the country. Really, so, UM, 423 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,400 Speaker 1: how do you feel that things are gonna go over 424 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 1: the next week. Do you think that it's gonna be 425 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 1: a major lockdown? Uh? Kind of like some people are 426 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 1: worried about it. You think you're there's doing me some 427 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: pretty good rut action, you know, I think it's gonna 428 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: be pretty good. Um. The first day I was here, 429 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 1: which was November the five, I saw the biggest buck 430 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: of the trip. That was that was bedded with the dough. Um. 431 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 1: And then I've seen uh, you know, I've seen everything 432 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,120 Speaker 1: in between. He was locked down on her and wouldn't move. 433 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: But this morning, um, which is the twelfth, I believe, UM, 434 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 1: I saw a buck chasing the dough as hard as 435 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:33,679 Speaker 1: I've ever seen. And UM, I saw more bucks today 436 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,880 Speaker 1: in this cold weather than um than what I've seen. 437 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: Just I was just driving around. I've got a buddy 438 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: who's who's still hunting, and so just driving around, I 439 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:45,399 Speaker 1: saw a lot of activity again on private land, but 440 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 1: it seems like the bigger bucks are really starting to 441 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 1: to move around and push the younger bucks off of 442 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 1: the doughs. Yeah. Man, I love having the opportunity to 443 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,439 Speaker 1: drive around at good deer hours and learn things. I 444 00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:02,360 Speaker 1: think it's absolute super underrated. I agree. So, Um, if 445 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,880 Speaker 1: you had to look at the next week, third week 446 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 1: in November and rate it on a scale of one 447 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 1: to ten for buck movement, what do you think it's 448 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,679 Speaker 1: gonna be there in the state of Kansas as far 449 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 1: as movement goes, especially with the weather. I mean they're 450 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:17,880 Speaker 1: they're calling for I think some parts of the state 451 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 1: are gonna get snow Monday. Um, and it's it's gonna 452 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,160 Speaker 1: be plenty cold. As far as movement goes, I mean, 453 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,880 Speaker 1: it's it's got to be a nine or ten. Um. 454 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 1: Oh man, that's I don't see any reason why it 455 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,120 Speaker 1: wouldn't be. Yeah, we've had some high numbers this week, man, 456 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 1: and I think that it's warranted. Honestly. Um, the uh, 457 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: the first part of November probably is just a touch 458 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 1: over hyped, and I think people really miss out on 459 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,400 Speaker 1: how good this week can be. So I'm right there 460 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 1: with you, dude. I'm excited about it, and I'm glad 461 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,119 Speaker 1: you got you a nice buck. I hope you get 462 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: to get home in Texas and find another one, dude. Yeah, 463 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:53,400 Speaker 1: I'll try. We'll see cool. Thanks for the report, report, Dan. 464 00:24:54,440 --> 00:25:11,200 Speaker 1: Thanks all right. I'm on the phone with Kyle Murray. 465 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 1: He is a hunter and Rhode Islands, not a quarterback 466 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 1: in Arizona. However, right, man, how are you doing today? 467 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 1: No good? How are you? I'm doing well and enjoying 468 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,679 Speaker 1: the cold front that we've been blessed with here. Have 469 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 1: you been out in the woods and Rhode Island here 470 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:28,640 Speaker 1: lately the past week, I've at the woods a couple 471 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 1: of times when the weather has been ideal where seventy 472 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 1: six degrees right now here in the Rhode Island. So, man, 473 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,679 Speaker 1: it's not not too ideal to get out, Yeah, I 474 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,919 Speaker 1: bet you on the east coast there, the it's the 475 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 1: weather patterns are just different than what most of the 476 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:48,280 Speaker 1: country is used to, right, I mean by this time, 477 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:52,159 Speaker 1: and you're usually where in the thirties to forties. This 478 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: is kind of unhearded for you know, seventy six degree weather. Yeah, 479 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 1: it's been a little difficult, uh, but you know, the 480 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:07,119 Speaker 1: ruts definitely starting and happening where it's been a slower 481 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:11,120 Speaker 1: slower start than usual. What do you do tactic wise 482 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: to kind of combat that slow start? Uh? Tactic wise, 483 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 1: I guess try to try to find where the does 484 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: are and where the does are as where you know 485 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:25,439 Speaker 1: you want to be hunting, of course, and get on 486 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 1: fresh shine so you can start to see where the 487 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: scrapes and the rubs, where the bucks that are starting 488 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 1: to make those That's where it's been the best. So 489 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: are you spending some time doing some mid day in 490 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 1: season scouting trying to find that stuff? Um, I've got 491 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 1: a couple of cell cams out, so I've been using 492 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 1: that and just knowledge from the previous years. Uh, you 493 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 1: know where some pre rut activity, we the scrapes and 494 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 1: the rubs haven't really they just started to show up 495 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 1: usually usually like the last week October, mid October, the 496 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,399 Speaker 1: you know, the would will start loading up with scrapes 497 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 1: and rubs, And it hadn't really happened until like last 498 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 1: weekend November five, which was our muzzleloader opener. Got you. 499 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 1: So when is usually kind of like the best day 500 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 1: in November for you there in Rhode Island. Um, the 501 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: best day Uh usually this let me look at the 502 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:35,639 Speaker 1: calendar here, the third week of November, probably from you know, 503 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: right now until November twenty or so, that's probably where 504 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 1: I put the most bucks on the ground. That's exciting, man, 505 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: because that's what we still have coming up. You know, 506 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 1: a lot of the country is kind of having the 507 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:49,680 Speaker 1: woes because you know, the first two weeks in November 508 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 1: coming up. But really, you know, there's a decent section 509 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 1: of the country you included that you know, some of 510 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 1: the best days are still to come. So that's exciting. 511 00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 1: What are you gonna be doing to kind of capitalize 512 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:06,400 Speaker 1: on that best week? How are you gonna be hunting? Um, well, 513 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 1: you gotta we got some cold weather coming up this week. 514 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 1: It's gonna dip down into the thirties pretty consistently, thirties 515 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: to forties. Uh, you know for highs and lows, which 516 00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:23,399 Speaker 1: we haven't seen yet this year. Um, I'm probably gonna 517 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 1: hold my my best spots until those really cold uh, 518 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 1: that first cold day, and try to get in there 519 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,360 Speaker 1: and and see what happens. And I guts to take 520 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 1: it from there and just hunt where the sign is 521 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: and try to get on some rough funnels and um, 522 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 1: you know, just be open minded about different places I 523 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 1: can hunt, not focusing on one particular spot. Sure. Yeah, 524 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 1: being conservative and playing the patient game can definitely pay off. 525 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 1: Is there a particular food source this time of year 526 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 1: that you really like the key on? Oh? I usually 527 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 1: like to hunt the acorns, but we didn't seemed to 528 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 1: have much of an acorn crop this year, and it 529 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 1: seems like they've been hitting grass, you know, some some 530 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 1: the alfalfa fields or hay fields you can get on those, 531 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 1: they've that's where the dose have been feeding. The last 532 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 1: the last dough I shot, she was full of you know, green, 533 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 1: no acorns or or nothing. So that's probably a food 534 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 1: source that i'd ken. Um, if I'm seeing them consistently 535 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 1: hitting the the fields, all I would definitely, you know, 536 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 1: keep that in mind and try to work that into 537 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: my tactics. Yeah, yeah, for sure. Man. So you've kind 538 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,959 Speaker 1: of already told us that your best week's coming up, 539 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 1: So I bet you're excited. I know that you're amped 540 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 1: for you know, some of that colder weather and stuff. 541 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 1: If you had to rate what you expect buck movement 542 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 1: to be for that third week in November on a 543 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 1: scale of one to tea and what would you put 544 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: that at. That's gonna be pretty up there. I would 545 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 1: say it's gonna be the best week of the season. 546 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 1: We haven't this weather yet. I mean we're coming coming 547 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 1: off of seventy six degree weather and on Monday it's 548 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 1: gonna be thirty three degrees. So what a drop temperature drop? 549 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: And you know it's gonna be consistent throughout that week. 550 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I would say a lot of a lot 551 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 1: of deer are gonna get killed that week here in 552 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 1: Rhode Island. Um so maybe an eight, you know, if 553 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 1: you're you're scouting in and you get out there. Yeah, dude, 554 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: that sounds awesome. Man. I love the optimism. Man. I'm 555 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,040 Speaker 1: excited for you. I know it's gonna be a good week. 556 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 1: I really appreciate the time, dude, And I hope you 557 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 1: kill a big jot buck this week, all right, appreciate it. Now, 558 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:43,560 Speaker 1: joining us on the phone is the smooth molasses cookie 559 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: with the side of Mocha voice that you guys know, 560 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 1: Spencer new Hearth, a regular on the show for many years. 561 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 1: Uh is gonna join us this week and talk about 562 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 1: some of his hunting experiences that he's had recently in Wyoming. Spencer, 563 00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 1: how are you doing, man, what's up, Casey? I'm doing good, 564 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 1: doing good today. Yeah, it's an important day to do that. 565 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 1: I've been seeing across Instagram in other places, just snow 566 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 1: kind of starting to hit, especially some of that Western stuff. 567 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 1: And you've been hunting white tails out there in the West. Um, 568 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 1: how has the hunting been in Wyoming? So the hunting 569 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 1: is good, and it's your traditional rut action this time 570 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 1: of year where you see bucks on their feet during daylight. 571 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 1: But you're also dealing with this extreme weather that we 572 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: just had. And over the last um a week or so, 573 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 1: most of the West m on on my side of 574 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 1: the Missouri River has had um some of the lowest 575 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 1: temperatures of the fall so far. I think where I'm 576 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 1: sitting right now in Montana it's zero degrees. A lot 577 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 1: of parts of Wyoming our ten degrees UM, and then 578 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 1: a lot of the West also has a lot of 579 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,719 Speaker 1: snow on the ground as well. So you're you're getting 580 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,959 Speaker 1: um something that I always embrace when this happens. Prior 581 00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 1: to like UM late November in the West, you have 582 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 1: this traditional rough movement with these white tail box but 583 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: then you also get this extreme weather that patterns or 584 00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: really makes the deer flock to very obvious places. Um, 585 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 1: and it makes her a really fun hunt because you're 586 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 1: seeing good numbers and you're seeing rowdy activity. Yeah, that's cool. 587 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,239 Speaker 1: And I would imagine that cold weather would mean that 588 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: uh food is going to probably be part of the 589 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,240 Speaker 1: at least the things you're factoring in. And with the 590 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 1: drought conditions in the West, at least in my experience, 591 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: UH food was kind of weird this year. When you're 592 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 1: looking at agriculture, did you find the same out there? Yeah? 593 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 1: The thing that I'm always most concerned about, I think 594 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: of all the the factors that people care about when 595 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:45,480 Speaker 1: it comes to the road with temperatures and moon phases 596 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 1: and bary MAgric pressure and precipitation and things like that, 597 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 1: I think the number one factor of the places that 598 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 1: I've always hunted in the West is the food availability. 599 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 1: And you're right, there was a significant drought this year. 600 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:03,160 Speaker 1: Um that impacted guys were planting and harvesting. But most 601 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 1: importantly is that most of harvest is wrapped up by now. 602 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,719 Speaker 1: In fact, most of harvests was wrapped up early this 603 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 1: year in the West, which meant that prior to November first, 604 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 1: a lot of the combines are out of the field, 605 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 1: and I think that makes for a stronger rut hunt 606 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:21,240 Speaker 1: um for guys who were hunting around agriculture. So the 607 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 1: drought had combines getting out of the field earlier this year, 608 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: and I think that, you know, makes for an improved 609 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,440 Speaker 1: movement with white tails. Yeah, for sure. So a lot 610 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: of the thought on the rut kind of radiates out 611 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 1: of the Midwest, and in the Midwest, understand that there's 612 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:38,560 Speaker 1: some really specific rut days, but in my experience, once 613 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: you kind of get out of that, the whole month 614 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 1: of November can be really good. So in your opinion, uh, 615 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: do you like these colder weather days that we have 616 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 1: coming up more or do you still think that that 617 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 1: first and second week of November is the time to 618 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:55,239 Speaker 1: be in the woods. I love whenever we have, like 619 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 1: I said earlier, the sixtreme weather and so like we 620 00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 1: have right now, this is really going to make the 621 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 1: dolls condre gate on the most obvious food sources. And 622 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,640 Speaker 1: in the West, that can be a clear cut, that 623 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 1: can be a corn field, that can be a cattle pasture, um, 624 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 1: whatever that is. It's gonna make it really obvious where 625 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:12,840 Speaker 1: these deer hanging out. Um. And then I think it 626 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:18,360 Speaker 1: also creates these strange places for deer to get locked 627 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,240 Speaker 1: down at um. And I see this all the time 628 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 1: where um, right around this time and for this next 629 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,120 Speaker 1: week or so, you're gonna be seeing a lot of 630 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:28,840 Speaker 1: bucks um that get locked down with the dough in 631 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 1: a place where you're you're traditionally not seeing deer, like 632 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,840 Speaker 1: these overgrown fence rows and old shelter belts and abandoned 633 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 1: farm yards and small slews. So it makes the deer 634 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 1: really visible. Um. And that can also like give you 635 00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,760 Speaker 1: a chance to seek out some permissions um where people 636 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 1: aren't normally asking the deer hunt because there's just not 637 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 1: normally deer there. And I've had that happen before as 638 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 1: well this time of year, where uh deer end up 639 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 1: in some strange spot because they got locked down there 640 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,759 Speaker 1: because there's a hot food source there. I'm able to 641 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:04,360 Speaker 1: get a permission on a place um that I otherwise 642 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:07,759 Speaker 1: didn't have hunting access to. Uh. And that's something you 643 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,759 Speaker 1: can really embrace over these next few weeks and and 644 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,680 Speaker 1: find some white tail bucks that way. Yeah. Man, that's exciting. 645 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,439 Speaker 1: I love getting out there and being able to glass 646 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:18,239 Speaker 1: those things up and just make observations and make moves 647 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:19,839 Speaker 1: on them. So as we look forward to the next 648 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 1: week here, we're gonna have the good cold temperatures as 649 00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:25,439 Speaker 1: you say that you like, but it's kind of gonna 650 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:28,439 Speaker 1: be on the back shoulder of this front. We're gonna 651 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 1: fall into just some really solid, consistent weather patterns. How 652 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 1: do you feel buck activities going to be within in 653 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:38,319 Speaker 1: the next week here in November. I think it's gonna 654 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 1: be really good. Um. But I think a big consideration 655 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:45,360 Speaker 1: right now too, is that almost all the gun seasons 656 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 1: on this side of the Missouri River had opened by now, 657 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:52,160 Speaker 1: and the Bracts has opened UH this weekend. Half of 658 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 1: South Dakota open this weekend. M Montana has been open 659 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:57,880 Speaker 1: for about three weeks now, Wyoming has been open for 660 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks, and most of the states. UM. 661 00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 1: So knowing knows things as well as UM. You know 662 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,359 Speaker 1: you're not gonna be finding deer within a quarter mile 663 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:10,759 Speaker 1: of of some hiking trail um on public lands that 664 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 1: that's probably not going to be the case. You're probably 665 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 1: also not going to find them, and some of the 666 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 1: most obvious signmaking spots. If you're if you're going through 667 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:20,800 Speaker 1: the woods on a trail and you find some rubs 668 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,800 Speaker 1: and scrapes, that's great. Um, but all these gun hunters 669 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:25,360 Speaker 1: in the woods are gonna find those as well, and 670 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 1: so I think the deer movement is gonna be really strong. Um, 671 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,360 Speaker 1: there's gonna be a lot of visible deer on on 672 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:35,400 Speaker 1: obvious food sources. Um, but you're probably gonna have to 673 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,319 Speaker 1: earn a lot of these books over this next week. Yeah, yeah, man, 674 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,760 Speaker 1: makes sense for sure. It's an exciting time of the year. Okay, 675 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,839 Speaker 1: let's do your thing. Let's rate Wyoming for the third 676 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:46,759 Speaker 1: week in November on a scale of one to team 677 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 1: for buck movement, man one to ten, it's it's gonna 678 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:54,920 Speaker 1: be a nine or attend man, that's optimistic. I like it. This. 679 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:58,279 Speaker 1: This is a dang good time to be in the woods. Um. 680 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:00,399 Speaker 1: Like I said, besides the gun pressure, you have everything 681 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,359 Speaker 1: else working for you right now. The crops are gone, Um, 682 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,480 Speaker 1: the weather is going to inspire a lot of movements. 683 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:09,920 Speaker 1: So I think it's gonna be strong. That's awesome, dude, Spencer, 684 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,359 Speaker 1: really appreciate the report. Man. Congrats on a great season. 685 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 1: So far, and I hope you stay warm, dry, and 686 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,360 Speaker 1: maybe get a few more hunts in. Thanks.
