Speaker 3: The Bone Collector? Oh, oh yeah, for sure.

22
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 2: I don't listen to it often, but you know it's

23
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 2: like you whip it out every once in a while

24
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 2: when you really need it.

25
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:32,039
Speaker 3: You know, well, this is that.

26
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,759
Speaker 4: Time of year. One of the songs on that album's

27
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 4: Opening Day, and so we were jamming to Opening Day

28
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 4: on the.

29
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 3: Radio this morning. When I was taking my son to school.

30
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 4: We listened to some Fred Baher, we listened to some

31
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 4: thirty point Buck.

32
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,199
Speaker 3: We bust out all the hits.

33
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 2: That's what I was wondering if you did a thirty

34
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 2: point buck. You know, that's not a thing here at all,

35
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 2: but I appreciate it from afar.

36
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 4: You know, it's not that far. It's like a Northern

37
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 4: version of a Texas.

38
00:01:58,120 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 3: Bill billy kind of song.

39
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 4: I feel like it's right up right up your guys.

40
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, but but yeah, we're uh, we're all excited here.

41
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 3: One of my.

42
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:11,800
Speaker 4: Best buddies, his son killed his first buck with a

43
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 4: bow all on his zone this morning. So super exciting

44
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 4: to see that. I'm getting ready to head out here

45
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 4: in a couple of hours. So I'm excited. And it's just,

46
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 4: you know, it's the beginning of the season. You're just

47
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 4: so full of hope and optimism and excitement. There's nothing

48
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 4: but good stuff ahead as far as I can think.

49
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 4: Of at the moment right, none of the none of

50
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 4: the tough realities have shown their ugly faces yet. So yeah,

51
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 4: I'm riding high. Yeah that's cool, dude, that's exciting. Do

52
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 4: you have a Mark Kenyon Worthy plan for opening day?

53
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:46,799
Speaker 3: I would say I.

54
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 4: Do have a Mark kenyan Worthy playing You're a planned

55
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 4: out guy, That's that's That's what I'm you know, kind

56
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 4: of referencing here.

57
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:57,519
Speaker 3: I feel as if you are in the Deerwoods.

58
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 2: You're conservative by nature, and so I think, you know,

59
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 2: knowing you in your past, if you didn't have a

60
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 2: good plan or a good win, you would you would

61
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 2: very well glass or observation sit for the evening.

62
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 3: But do you feel like you're going to be in

63
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 3: the chips?

64
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've got I've got a pretty decent shot tonight.

65
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 4: I'm not going in with like the Shike's level of confidence.

66
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 4: Like there's sometimes when you go in and like just

67
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 4: walking in and you're like, oh my goodness, this is

68
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:30,399
Speaker 4: gonna be the night. But it's still pretty darn good.

69
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 4: So I'll try not to bore you with too much

70
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 4: of this. But the short version of the story is

71
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 4: that one of my two main target bucks in southern

72
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 4: Michigan has been pretty active the last seven to ten days.

73
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 4: I was able to do some glassing, and on three

74
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 4: different occasions over the last it's like seven.

75
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 3: Eight nine days something like that, in that window, three different.

76
00:03:55,880 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 4: Times I've seen him on his feet in daylight on

77
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 4: a similar basic track of movement. And what these deer

78
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 4: are doing right now in my area at least, is

79
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 4: that they are shifting off of the green soybean fields

80
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 4: that have just recently defoliated and are mostly all dried

81
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 4: down now, and they've shifted to different food sources. There's

82
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 4: some hitting acorns, but there's not a huge mass crop

83
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 4: at least in my zone from what I've seen, nothing

84
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 4: like what we had last year. So at least where

85
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 4: I'm at, the big new local food source that a

86
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 4: lot of deer turned their attention to is actually cover crops.

87
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 4: There's a number of fields in my region that have

88
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,679
Speaker 4: planted cover crops after wheat, and so that cover crop

89
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 4: is like oats and rye and various brassicas and so

90
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 4: it's a green food plot basically. So I've got like

91
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,720
Speaker 4: a twenty five acre green food plot on one of

92
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 4: the neighboring farms next to one of the spots that

93
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 4: I can hunt.

94
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 3: So that's been pulling a lot of deer.

95
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 4: So this particular buck that I'm gonna be hunting to

96
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 4: night has shifted off of the beans and I think

97
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 4: is keying on mostly that cover crop, and I've got

98
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,359
Speaker 4: a couple spots I can intercept him from one of

99
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 4: his main bedding zones heading towards that cover crop.

100
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 3: One of those spots is a.

101
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 4: Little kind of Heidi whole food plot that I was

102
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 4: able to plant, and that is similar to what's in

103
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 4: the cover crop.

104
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 3: But just a little bit more hidden away and a

105
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 3: little closer to betting. And so one of those.

106
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,600
Speaker 4: Nights that I caught him moving like five six days ago,

107
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 4: he hit the food plot, first made a scrape, and

108
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 4: then headed off towards the big destination. So with the

109
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 4: wind we've got tonight, that's the only spy I can

110
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 4: safely hunt and be in a pretty good spot. So

111
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 4: I'm hunting that little Heidi hole plot tight to one

112
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 4: of his bedrooms.

113
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 3: It's kind of on the way to the bigger destination.

114
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 4: So it's got all the markings of a standard high

115
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 4: quality early season hunt.

116
00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 3: I can get in there without anything.

117
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,039
Speaker 4: Knowing I'm going to be there and get out pretty

118
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:05,839
Speaker 4: safely without anything knowing I was there. There's a scrape

119
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 4: tree within range of this spot.

120
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 3: There's a actually the tree.

121
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,599
Speaker 4: Stand I'm in is in a white oak that does

122
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 4: have some acorns, so there will be some acorns right

123
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,160
Speaker 4: next to me. So there's a bunch of good looking

124
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,600
Speaker 4: things in decent weather. It's not super hot, it's not

125
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 4: super cool. It's kind of right around average. But there's

126
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:31,039
Speaker 4: a cool front hitting tonight, and temperatures tomorrow morning will

127
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 4: be like fifteen degrees cooler than they were this morning,

128
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,720
Speaker 4: So you know, there's a little bit of that environmental

129
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:40,839
Speaker 4: thing that might get a move just a tiny bit more.

130
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,600
Speaker 3: So all I has to say, I'm excited. I feel

131
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,359
Speaker 3: pretty decent. I think there's a pretty decent chance that

132
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 3: he could come through there. Yeah that's cool, man.

133
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 2: Do you feel how much let me ask this differently,

134
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 2: how much emphasis do you put on moon phases?

135
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 3: Mark? Almost none? Yeah, almost none. I would say I

136
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 3: would say close to zero.

137
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 4: The only time I'll look at it, you know, And

138
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 4: I've got somebodies who are red moon obsessed, and so

139
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 4: they're always saying, oh, it's red Moon's red moon.

140
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 3: So if ever, like a red moon, or if.

141
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 4: Ever the rising and setting moon times coincide with the

142
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 4: first hour or last hour of daylight, which is supposed

143
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 4: to be a good trigger. Whenever that happens, and I'm hunting,

144
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 4: I'm always thinking, well, hey, the moon's good, maybe that'll.

145
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 3: Mean today's the day.

146
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 2: It's only a factor for optimism, right exactly, Yeah, exactly.

147
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 3: But I don't take it into account anyone.

148
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, it would it be in a new moon

149
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 2: right now, I'm like you, I don't actually think about

150
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 2: the red moon stuff too much, but I'll like new

151
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 2: moons and it's never going to keep me from hunting.

152
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 2: But if there's no moon at not, it's just like

153
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 2: what you were saying, where it's like, oh, well, there's

154
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 2: a chance they get on their feet a little bit

155
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 2: earlier because they know that, you know, they're their patterns

156
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 2: are such that they don't have as much light at

157
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 2: not or whatever. You know, you can always kind of

158
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 2: come up with a good reason to go. And so

159
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 2: that's kind of what I'm looking at. And there's others,

160
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 2: you know, the guys that we've talked to this week

161
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 2: are kind of thinking that too. Now, when you're looking

162
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 2: at your set up to not I know you being analytical,

163
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 2: you've thought about the liabilities. What's your big liability tonight

164
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 2: with this sit That's.

165
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 4: A great question, and that is a very important thing

166
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 4: to think about, especially early in the year, because you know,

167
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 4: every time you hunt your roll in the dice and

168
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 4: you've got the possible chances of a reward, it's like

169
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 4: how likely it is that you're gonna kill something? And

170
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:44,079
Speaker 4: you have to balance that or compare that to what's

171
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,440
Speaker 4: your chance of risk? Like what's the downside? What are

172
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 4: the liabilities that you're talking about? And if you press

173
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 4: in and do something where it's low odds of success

174
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 4: but very high odds of something bad happening, and by

175
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 4: bad happening, I mean educating deer, well, then you might

176
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 4: end up blowing your future opportunities when there really was

177
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 4: a chance to get a crack at the deer you're after.

178
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 4: And so my liabilities tonight are pretty well accounted for,

179
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 4: which is, you know by plan. Two things could be

180
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 4: a problem for me. One would be if the wind

181
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 4: direction was different than what it is. So I always

182
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 4: like to hunt opening night almost never. I almost never

183
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 4: pass on Opening night just because these deer haven't been

184
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 4: pressured yet.

185
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 3: There's still a little bit on the summer pattern.

186
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 4: But if I had a wind direction that was pressing

187
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 4: into these betting areas that I'm hunting, you just can't

188
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,560
Speaker 4: do it because you're just not going to have any

189
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 4: deer come out, or at least not the deer you're

190
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 4: after if they're winding you, and so tonight, if the

191
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 4: wind switched on me, that would be a major issue.

192
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,199
Speaker 4: But as of right now, I have almost as good

193
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 4: of a wind as I could ask for hunt this spot,

194
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,440
Speaker 4: a very safe wind that blows back into an area

195
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,040
Speaker 4: where almost there's never deer, almost.

196
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 3: Never coming from that area.

197
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 4: They're not deer bedded there, so it's a pretty safe wind.

198
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 4: But that if it changed, that would be a liability.

199
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 4: And then the second thing is my exit. My entry

200
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 4: is rock solid.

201
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 3: I don't need to go through anything that will have deer.

202
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 4: I shouldn't spook any deer unless I get there super

203
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 4: late and there's already deer in the food, but that

204
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 4: won't be the case. The exit is the situation that

205
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 4: can be tricky, and I'm lucky enough that I have

206
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 4: this particular place I'm hunting tonight is close enough to

207
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:37,079
Speaker 4: where I live that I can get my wife on

208
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,959
Speaker 4: some evenings to drive out and clear any deer that

209
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 4: might be out in the neighboring fields and kind.

210
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 3: Of make sure it's safe.

211
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 4: So she can drive out in the truck if the

212
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 4: fields are if the fields are picked dirty, or she

213
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 4: can hop in the canam and drive that down and

214
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 4: sometimes pick me up in that. And so tonight is

215
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 4: actually a night where I'm going to use use my uh,

216
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 4: use my brownie points and get her to drive all

217
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 4: the way on the can m so that basically I

218
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 4: can get out of there without any deer being busted

219
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 4: by me climbing out of the tree and walking out

220
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:13,360
Speaker 4: of there.

221
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 3: So it's a luxury to have a spot this close

222
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 3: enough and a.

223
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,680
Speaker 4: Wife who's who's kind enough and understanding enough to sacrifice

224
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 4: some over evening to do me that doing that solid.

225
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's nice man.

226
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:28,839
Speaker 2: You know. Early on in the Element podcast catalog, we

227
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,680
Speaker 2: had an episode called burning Brownie points, and we assessed

228
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 2: that you have so many and they, uh, they're kind

229
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 2: of like some you know, like savings accounts or or

230
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 2: stuff like that, where like they they don't roll over

231
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 2: all the time.

232
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 3: So like you gotta use them wisely.

233
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 2: But also you can't like accumulate too many and then uh,

234
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 2: some days you burn more than others for the same tasks.

235
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 2: So you know, I can assume you've assessed that as well.

236
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 2: With this brownie burning, you're about to do not and

237
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 2: it's going to be totally worth it. And I think it's.

238
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 4: Funny, you know, like back before I used to hunt

239
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:12,839
Speaker 4: the same general area, remember the first like five to seven,

240
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 4: I don't know how many years, a decent number of

241
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 4: years I hunted this area and I would just walk

242
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 4: in and out to the road on foot, and it

243
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 4: was always hard to get out of there without spooking deer.

244
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,080
Speaker 4: And then when I finally realized, oh, you know what,

245
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 4: if I could just get like a friend who's.

246
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,559
Speaker 5: In the area, or Kylie.

247
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,839
Speaker 4: Or if I can convince someone to come out here

248
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:36,560
Speaker 4: and how to pick me up or clear the field

249
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 4: of the vehicle or something, that would probably be a

250
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:44,959
Speaker 4: significantly less you know, damaging exit. And since we started

251
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 4: doing that, my success in my settings of mature bucks

252
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 4: in that area.

253
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:51,200
Speaker 3: Have gone up dramatically.

254
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,559
Speaker 4: Like that was one thing that made a huge difference

255
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 4: over the last I don't know, seven to ten years probably.

256
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 3: That's cool.

257
00:12:58,000 --> 00:12:59,679
Speaker 2: It's good to see things like that, like you used

258
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 2: to see the return on that you know, and be

259
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 2: able to make a actual deduction.

260
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:07,840
Speaker 3: Oh, this has a direct impact.

261
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I just really feel like they're much more forgiving

262
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 4: of a vehicle than a person. And so in spots

263
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,080
Speaker 4: where there's not a great way to walk out without.

264
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 3: Something seeing you.

265
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 4: In this particular area, that's very tricky to get out

266
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 4: because there's so much open croft field and where I

267
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,840
Speaker 4: have to access from the road is on the opposite

268
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 4: side of those open fields.

269
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:33,199
Speaker 3: If stuff's picked or open, you're very exposed.

270
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 4: So on the nights when I have to go on

271
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 4: there for an evening hunt in one of these places,

272
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 4: it's it's it's very.

273
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 3: Helpful when I can get that ride. Yeah, very nice, dude.

274
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 2: Well, it sounds like you've got the pieces in place

275
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 2: to at least having good hunt, and I hope you

276
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 2: find success.

277
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 3: Man.

278
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:50,079
Speaker 2: I think you kind of have a little bit of

279
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 2: a tradition of at least coming close early. It was

280
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 2: it last year or the year before you killed a

281
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,719
Speaker 2: deer pretty early on. I can't remember, for.

282
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 4: I almost always see a good one one and yet

283
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 4: two years ago I killed one of my targets opening

284
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 4: nights last night. I saw actually the last night, the

285
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 4: Buckham after tonight. I had an encounter with him last

286
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 4: year on the second day of the season. So so yeah,

287
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 4: there's definitely there's been a lot of good sightings, close calls,

288
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 4: a couple of kills. So I always feel very good

289
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 4: those first couple of days of the season here in Michigan.

290
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 2: So I said, awesome, man, Well, I hope you find

291
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 2: some good success. It sounds like around the country that

292
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 2: optimism is high as well. I got a lot of

293
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 2: states opening up right now, so everybody's kind of like, hey,

294
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 2: it's gonna be an awesome week.

295
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 3: Like I said, optimism is high the first day of

296
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 3: the season.

297
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 2: Hey, dude, optimism kills deer. Absolutely. You know, if you're

298
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 2: feeling pessimistic and you this is for lots of things

299
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 2: in life, right, But take a page out of Tony's

300
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 2: book here, But like, if you're pessimistic in the weight room,

301
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,160
Speaker 2: or you're pessimistic, know with your job or with deer hunting,

302
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 2: or in your marriage, it's not going to produce good fruit, right,

303
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:11,240
Speaker 2: But not saying that optimism is going to result in success,

304
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 2: but you're you're taking steps in the right direction.

305
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 3: I one a grief makes makes a big difference. Man.

306
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 2: Well, let's uh, let's get the reports from the guys

307
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 2: around the countries.

308
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 3: That sound good, that sounds great. I'm excited to hear them.

309
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 2: On the phone. Now, I've got a local guy here

310
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 2: from Texas. Colton Roberts had him some opening day success. Dude,

311
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 2: congrats on the big buck.

312
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 6: Thank you, Casey.

313
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, for sure, that's a big deal because, in

314
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 2: my opinion, October in Texas is tough, and so you

315
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 2: probably had to have something figured out. What was like

316
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 2: your major tactic on trying to get this deer down.

317
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 7: Well, I had an account encounter with him last year.

318
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 6: I think I did. I'm pretty sure.

319
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 7: And I kind of just went in blind having an idea.

320
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 7: That afternoon, me and my dad and I didn't like

321
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 7: what I see in and I was about to.

322
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 6: Head out and saw a.

323
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 7: Little patch of white oaks and had some caps popped

324
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 7: off the acorns, and I thought, just thick enough, and

325
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 7: there was a bunch of beauty berry there and we just.

326
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 6: Hung up right there and he come out about six o'clock.

327
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 2: Man, that's early too. You must have been pretty close

328
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 2: to his bed. I'd imagine I had to have been. Yeah,

329
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 2: did he come in and browse or was he just

330
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 2: walking the trail?

331
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 7: The first thing I heard was him browsing on a

332
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 7: beauty berry and I glanced over and I thought it

333
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 7: was a dough. And then whenever he moved his head,

334
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 7: the whole beautyberry tree moved and.

335
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 6: I went home.

336
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 8: Not a dough.

337
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 3: Things are getting a little more interested real quick.

338
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 7: Right, And I mean he hit a dead load to

339
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 7: that acre tree, Like I'm a loaw.

340
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 3: How about that? I bet you.

341
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 2: I've been in a little scouting too, and maybe you

342
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 2: can confirm this, but there's not many trees dropping yet,

343
00:16:57,880 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 2: so you probably found the few tree.

344
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 6: Yes.

345
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:06,640
Speaker 7: I've always heard feed trees and I have had trouble

346
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 7: finding them anywhere.

347
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 6: Like it's just aprons here, aprons there.

348
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:17,679
Speaker 7: And when I saw those green white oaks on the

349
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 7: ground with the caps popped.

350
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 6: Off of them, I was like, well, they're hitting them.

351
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 3: Yeah.

352
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting that you could recognize the detail of

353
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:26,160
Speaker 2: the caps popped off.

354
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 3: You know, that's pretty cool.

355
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 2: So when you found that tree, did you set up

356
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 2: for the wind to be perfect for you? Do you

357
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 2: set up on a just off or how did you

358
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:36,800
Speaker 2: you know, negotiate situation.

359
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:42,399
Speaker 6: It was the wind was coming north, I think, and.

360
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 7: It was a cut that went down into a little

361
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 7: creek and these weren't a flat.

362
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 6: Right before you dropping the cree.

363
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 7: And the wind was out of the north, so it

364
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 7: was in my face coming away from that cut. But

365
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,479
Speaker 7: I knew when it got dark, it would start dropping

366
00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,360
Speaker 7: down in that cut if that wind died any and

367
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,679
Speaker 7: it when dark started rolling around in the shade started

368
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 7: coming it, it did start dropping and I was just

369
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:09,400
Speaker 7: dropping milkweed every five minutes, but it was it would

370
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 7: drop down in there, but then it would float to

371
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,800
Speaker 7: the creek, and I, for some reason I had a.

372
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 6: Feeling they might come off the top.

373
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,679
Speaker 7: And as long as I could get a shot before

374
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 7: he got to it.

375
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 6: And he did. He was in a dead run and.

376
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 7: Then coming to that tree and he hit that thermal

377
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:28,360
Speaker 7: and just locked up, and I already had my pen

378
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 7: on him.

379
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:33,879
Speaker 2: Too late, huh. It was yeah, that's awesome, man, So

380
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 2: he said earlier. The historical dad, you know, played a

381
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:40,440
Speaker 2: little bit of a factor into this.

382
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,439
Speaker 3: Did you look at the moon at all thinking about this?

383
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:44,679
Speaker 3: You know?

384
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,359
Speaker 2: He came in early on an evening and it just

385
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 2: so happens a week in a new moon period. Do

386
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 2: you feel like that correlated?

387
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 6: Well, I'm sure it probably did. I've never I always.

388
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:57,359
Speaker 7: Think about looking at the moon, and then when it

389
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 7: comes time to go, I just got I mean, it

390
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 7: don't really matter what the moon's.

391
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 6: Doing, and I have time off, I'm gonna go.

392
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 2: Yep, though, that's how you kill big deer man. That's

393
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 2: I think that you could talk yourself out of hunting

394
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 2: a whole lot. But it doesn't take too much taught

395
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 2: me into it, you know what I mean?

396
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 7: No, not really Like if I get home from work

397
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:18,679
Speaker 7: and I got two hours of the daylight, I'm going

398
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 7: to try.

399
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 2: To go, Yes, sir, I can understand that completely. So

400
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:26,960
Speaker 2: looking forward here, we got cooler tempts than some years,

401
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,159
Speaker 2: but it's a real stagnant period. There's no weather systems

402
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 2: at least on the ten day forecast. Do you think

403
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 2: that we're going to have kind of similar buck moving

404
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,720
Speaker 2: over the next week or do you feel like it's

405
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,879
Speaker 2: gonna kind of peter out after this initial kind of

406
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 2: cool spell we had in early October.

407
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 6: I think it'll be all right.

408
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,360
Speaker 7: I mean, I think temperature is gonna be the low nineties,

409
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 7: mid eighties coming up, and to me, eighties in Texas

410
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:56,119
Speaker 7: is pretty mild.

411
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, for this part, I would think for sure we

412
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 2: can see eighties in December, right right.

413
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,280
Speaker 7: I just don't think it bothers them much down here. Yeah,

414
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:08,399
Speaker 7: they're just gonna keep doing what they've been doing.

415
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 3: I agree.

416
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,159
Speaker 2: So if you had to look at the next week

417
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 2: and ranking on a scale of one to ten, what

418
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,119
Speaker 2: would you give it?

419
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 4: Five?

420
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,240
Speaker 3: That's pretty good for early season. I'd say I would

421
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:20,920
Speaker 3: give it five.

422
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 7: Like the only thing I've seen influence so much, like

423
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:28,119
Speaker 7: the Weather's not a big deals pressure around where I'm at.

424
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 2: So it's uh, you know, honestly, looking at it being

425
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,920
Speaker 2: opening weekend that just happened, there's a chance that it

426
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 2: might even get a little bit better. Guys kind of

427
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 2: get that Russ knocked off and then they say, Okay,

428
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 2: it's not November yet, you know, So you could be

429
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,479
Speaker 2: looking even at the mid Octobers is the time when

430
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:45,360
Speaker 2: the pressure lets up?

431
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:50,399
Speaker 6: Oh they do. I guarantee it. There won't be shoot

432
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 6: next weekend.

433
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:54,640
Speaker 7: There might not be four cars on that whole seventeen

434
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 7: thousand acres.

435
00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 2: Yep, YEP makes a difference, man, for sure. Well, hey,

436
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,200
Speaker 2: do you can grats on me? Was that opening day

437
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:03,399
Speaker 2: or or opening weekend?

438
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 3: Opening?

439
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 9: Yeah?

440
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 4: Way to go, man, Well, I hope you uh uh

441
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 4: can kind of regroup each of some backstraps and figure

442
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 4: out another deer to shoot somewhere.

443
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 6: And I'm gonna try to.

444
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 3: This is my good buddy Reed struggle.

Speaker 3: Gotcha.

460
00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 2: So earlier off air, we were talking about food plots

461
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 2: a little bit is that are you kind of manicuring

462
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,199
Speaker 2: food plots and getting ready to go or kind of

463
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,320
Speaker 2: what does what your setup look like for a preparation?

464
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:07,879
Speaker 9: Absolutely?

465
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:08,920

Speaker 9: plots at both.

00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,160
Speaker 3: It is the craziest thing in the world.

473
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 9: Turnip's blowing up, right, is blowing up because we had

474
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 9: that drought and all that and everything. Yeah, but yeah,

475
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 9: so tonight we're actually going to be setting up. We

476
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 9: did did a little deal with our farmer that they

477
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,639
Speaker 9: left some corn standing for us, nice and which is

478
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 9: great cover. So we're actually going to be doing a

479
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 9: little bit of We're going to be in the standing corn.

480
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,240
Speaker 9: They left about fifteen rows on the edge of this field,

481
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 9: so we're gonna make us a little blond in the

482
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,119
Speaker 9: standing corn, get a couple of rows back, and just

483
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,120
Speaker 9: kind of PLoP down in the middle of the corn stalks.

484
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 9: But it should be a pretty cool hunt, kind of

485
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 9: kind of old school little Dan Fitzgerald style.

486
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 3: The videos of my dude, Dan the Man.

487
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:11,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, it could be, it could be really cool.

488
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 9: I'd love to shoot one in the in the corn

489
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 9: stalks like that, you know, early October.

490
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:17,600
Speaker 4: So you got off the camera data there or just

491
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 4: knowing that's a good spot.

492
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,639
Speaker 3: Or what it looks like. It's a it's a historical spot.

493
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:23,159
Speaker 3: My little brother.

494
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 9: Actually just killed a buck out of there on Saturday.

495
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 3: And the youth opener a nice, nice.

496
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 9: Eight point good mass uh, you know, around one twenty,

497
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,640
Speaker 9: so we have a lot of deer down in there.

498
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,560
Speaker 9: They saw twenty deer that morning in the first ten minutes.

499
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:38,680
Speaker 9: He killed his bucks seven minutes in an open day.

500
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 9: It's we call it the Cethro Special. It's just kind

501
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:47,159
Speaker 9: of what he does. But anyways, Yeah, so I've been

502
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:51,400
Speaker 9: running cameras all summer and I run mock scrapes all

503
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,920
Speaker 9: summer long, and I have doze and bucks hitting these

504
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 9: mock scrapes from June to now.

505
00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 3: So that's what I've been monitoring.

506
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 9: The there's a couple really nice there's a really nice

507
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 9: a point that we're kind of trying to key in

508
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 9: on him.

509
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 3: I got him up on the top of my folks,

510
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:07,160
Speaker 3: up on top.

511
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,479
Speaker 9: Of the ridges and then it's kind of a valley

512
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 9: down on the bottom where the where the ag is

513
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 9: and you've got a nice river right there, and uh,

514
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:18,400
Speaker 9: we're hoping to catch them this evening coming to feed.

515
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,439
Speaker 3: And that's right now. It is so interesting. They've been

516
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 3: pulling ag early, really early this year. It's like two

517
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 3: three weeks early.

518
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:29,440
Speaker 9: So they're gonna be in those ag fields right now

519
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:33,200
Speaker 9: specifically because they just pulled the ag and then once

520
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 9: they're going to start transitioning out of that into your

521
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 9: acorns and leaves dropping and and you know, but there's

522
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,280
Speaker 9: just there's a lot of germination going on right now

523
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 9: from the amount of rain we've had, so just that

524
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:47,400
Speaker 9: that's kind of the pattern we're on, you know, with

525
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 9: with having an ag and stant literally standing corn.

526
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 4: So you feel like the new moon plays a factor

527
00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:55,719
Speaker 4: in deer movement. You know, there's no moon at night

528
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 4: at all.

529
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,199
Speaker 2: Sudden, do you feel like you're going to see more uh,

530
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,639
Speaker 2: you know, evening daylight activity.

531
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 9: Absolutely, which we've noticed lately with that heleen when it hit.

532
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,680
Speaker 9: You know, there's some alfalfa fields around me and we're

533
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:10,679
Speaker 9: seeing deer in the field around five o'clock, you know,

534
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 9: it's getting dark at seven thirty, and then it's pretty early.

535
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,119
Speaker 9: I saw a couple of mature bucks out in that

536
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:17,720
Speaker 9: alfalfa at five o'clock.

537
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:19,880
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, that could have played a little

538
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,400
Speaker 3: role with with Helene hitting and whatnot, but definitely.

539
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,960
Speaker 9: And then so we also right now we have that

540
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 9: really really low parametric pressure for about a week with

541
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 9: you know, and like I said, that wind switching, it's

542
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 9: starting to phase out. So I'm really expecting some better

543
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,679
Speaker 9: hunting later in this week. The you know, we have

544
00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:42,679
Speaker 9: a cold front coming in. It's gonna be forties at

545
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 9: not and barometric pressure.

546
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 6: Is gonna get right, and I.

547
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 3: Really think later this week's gonna do good for us.

548
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 3: And then, like you said, the.

549
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:54,440
Speaker 9: Moon phase, it just seems like a lot of things

550
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 9: are lining up kind of the they're switching, they're getting

551
00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 9: out of their bachelor groups.

552
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 3: You know, these bucks fins start breaking off, they're.

553
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:02,119
Speaker 6: Gonna be looking at their buddies like, dude, you've been

554
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:02,919
Speaker 6: cool all summer.

555
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,920
Speaker 3: I don't really like you anymore. Man, you know, you

556
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,160
Speaker 3: get gone out of here, that's cool.

557
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 2: So, you know, you kind of mentioned over the next

558
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,479
Speaker 2: week and high anticipations of that if you had to

559
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 2: rank buck movement on a scale of one to ten

560
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,680
Speaker 2: for the state of Indiana for the upcoming week.

561
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:21,159
Speaker 3: What would you give it. I'm not going to do

562
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:21,960
Speaker 3: a Midwest six.

563
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,000
Speaker 6: And we're gonna.

564
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:28,159
Speaker 9: So you know, like like we said, the pressure, the

565
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:31,480
Speaker 9: very much pressure lining up that Helen getting kind of

566
00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:34,880
Speaker 9: moved out of here. I mean I would say an eight.

567
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 3: Man. I really think I'm giving it.

568
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,160
Speaker 9: An eight because of the cold front two and them

569
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:45,879
Speaker 9: phasing out from just there that rut phase is like

570
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,199
Speaker 9: really good. They're gonna be hitting scrapes. I mean that

571
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 9: that's gonna be, you know, be hunting on my own.

572
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 9: I'm gonna be sitting.

00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 8: like to you know, we like to chase white Tail

589
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 8: every day. But yeah, when something like this happens, it is, uh,

590
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:52,120
Speaker 8: it's super special.

591
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, for sure. You sent me a picture of

592
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 2: him ago. He's awesome, and it sounds like you got

593
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,200
Speaker 2: some history with him. The historical data come into play.

594
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 6: Yeah.

595
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,919
Speaker 8: Yeah, So it's actually funny you say that. So you know,

596
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,880
Speaker 8: before this happened, you know, last summer, I had been

597
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 8: seeing this property that I've been managing forever three years now,

598
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:14,120
Speaker 8: and every time I drove by, it's like I almost

599
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 8: was going to hit a deer acrossing the road from

600
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 8: the property, and it was like somebody was saying, Hey,

601
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 8: there's the launch.

602
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 3: Wh aren't you hunting here?

603
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 2: You know?

604
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:26,879
Speaker 8: And you know, I ended up bushogging that place and

605
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:31,120
Speaker 8: putting out a camera and this buck was actually the first.

606
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 3: Picture I ever got at twenty twenty five. Oh, I

607
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 3: take that camera.

608
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 8: I take my cameras up every year. And uh, I

609
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 8: was laying in bed one one the evening, actually two

610
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 8: hours after a bush hoogg.

611
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 3: And uh, he just happened to be there.

612
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 8: Man, he was curious, he's checking things out, and man

613
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 8: was he he was way beyond the game every he

614
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 8: was killing everybody in Bellot season.

615
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 3: So that's cool, man.

616
00:28:55,760 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 4: So did you kind of put the pieces together and

617
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 4: look at data and like have a strike mission on

618
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 4: this deer or so a kind conservative seit and he

619
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:10,360
Speaker 4: happened to be there.

620
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, So it's it's weird.

621
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,480
Speaker 8: So I usually, you know, I've all the people that

622
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 8: I've kind of looked up to, you know, they just

623
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 8: say the hunt right, just get them in a tree

624
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 8: and see what things happened. And with this deer is

625
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 8: a little different for the past, I'd say since I

626
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 8: got a picture of him, which was I guess was.

627
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 10: In May or June.

628
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 8: I was trying to figure out a way to find

629
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 8: out his exact path or his morning path or feeding

630
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 8: ground every morning. And you know, I walked on the

631
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 8: park property about I guess three, three or four times

632
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 8: just looking for something.

633
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:46,600
Speaker 3: And I ended up finding this tree.

634
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 8: And it was a four foot diameter tree as a

635
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:52,680
Speaker 8: white oak, which is a giant oak here in Tennessee.

636
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 8: And I got my binoes, and I looked up and man,

637
00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:01,960
Speaker 8: this thing was absolutely loaded of acorns. And it was

638
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 8: pretty early for that to happen too around here, I guess.

639
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 8: And but anyways, I put up a camera there and

640
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 8: I figured out that in the morning, I got him

641
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 8: a picture right where he crossed the fence line and

642
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 8: then right when he was going towards.

643
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 3: The acorns, and he was eating them every single morning.

644
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,520
Speaker 8: So I knew just in and there I needed to

645
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:25,720
Speaker 8: that's where I wanted to kill this deer. And I guess, uh,

646
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:28,440
Speaker 8: from there on, I guess he only came in our

647
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 8: north wind, because north wind was the wind that blew

648
00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 8: into his face. And and I was like, I don't

649
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 8: know how the heck I'm gonna kill us deer because

650
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 8: the only you know, he only comes on this wind,

651
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:42,600
Speaker 8: and I can't cross his fence line because it's something

652
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 8: else property, right, And so I figured out a way

653
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 8: and the only wind I could possibly hunt him in

654
00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 8: was a perfect southwest wind cross wind, and uh, it

655
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:56,600
Speaker 8: definitely helped me out on Saturday.

656
00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 4: That's awesome, man, you know, I think that conservative appro

657
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 4: and being there at the exact right time is huge

658
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:04,840
Speaker 4: for killing big deer.

659
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 2: Especially outside of the rut. And you know you said

660
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 2: acorns played a big part of it. That were you

661
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 2: scouting and finding the feed trees or you know you

662
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 2: said you kind of went in there trying to figure

663
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 2: that out, right, Did you already have all the trees

664
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 2: exactly kind of plotted out?

665
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 4: You know?

666
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:20,120
Speaker 3: It was?

667
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 8: It's so it was so thick in there, and that's

668
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:25,720
Speaker 8: why I bush howked it and it was so thick

669
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 8: in the past two seasons.

670
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 3: You know, I never hunted it.

671
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 8: I just kind of let it at that area be

672
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 8: a you know, a zone where they are, you know,

673
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:33,719
Speaker 8: completely safe.

674
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,560
Speaker 3: But I did see a.

675
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,960
Speaker 8: Pattern with his deer where they would go from point

676
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 8: A to point B all the way to that oak

677
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 8: tree almost every single day. And sure enough he was

678
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 8: one of the deer that just I guess he designated

679
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 8: this tree as his feeding tree, so you could the

680
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,920
Speaker 8: amount of rubs around the tree were kind of crazy too,

681
00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 8: So it.

682
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 3: Was definitely his territory or his betting around. I got you.

683
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,080
Speaker 4: So from around the country, it seems like crops are

684
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 4: kind of coming out a little bit early this year.

685
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 4: First off, you live in crop country, and then did

686
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 4: that play a role in kind of what's going on

687
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 4: where you're at.

688
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:14,640
Speaker 8: Yeah, yes, so we we live in Bradley County, Tennessee.

689
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 8: He was killed on the outside of Bradley County, Tennessee,

690
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 8: and Bradley is very well known for crops and I

691
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 8: guess growing corn, soybeans, things like that. But the cool

692
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 8: part about this property is that it's bordered by not

693
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 8: only soybean field, but an edge of corn corn line.

694
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:40,960
Speaker 8: And I could and every single night on the other

695
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,160
Speaker 8: side of the oak tree, I was able to actually

696
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 8: ask for permission to sit on this lady's property and

697
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 8: watch him where I you know, she'd never she'd never

698
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 8: let me hunt, but she was. I was able to

699
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 8: watch him in that soybean field and so I got

700
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 8: to watch him grow, and it was you know, at

701
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 8: that moment, I was kind of like, I wish this

702
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:03,440
Speaker 8: lady would.

703
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 10: Let me hunt.

704
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,840
Speaker 8: But but man, I am so glad that I killed

705
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 8: him when he was hard for me.

706
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 3: That's cool.

707
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:14,120
Speaker 8: He's so pretty. So the funny part is, and all

708
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 8: my friends are giving me absolute crap about the shout

709
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 8: out to Toby Dean in twenty one South but because

710
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 8: he's great at that, but uh, I was. It was

711
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 8: on video, and I got him coming in and I

712
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 8: got him actually fighting this buck, which is actually part

713
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:30,600
Speaker 8: of that story.

714
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 3: But that's cool.

715
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 8: He actually fought a buck for about probably about ten

716
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:39,360
Speaker 8: minutes before he came in, and which.

717
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 3: Is kind of really weird. I mean that really weird.

718
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 3: But I guess they get territorial, yeah, pret past.

719
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 8: But I had it out and it was an absolute

720
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 8: torrential down poor from the hurricane that came in, Hurricane Heleen,

721
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 8: and man, I was out there for I guess from

722
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,360
Speaker 8: five to seven. I saw him at seven, and then

723
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 8: he started fighting this buck and those were blowing and

724
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 8: I thought this, you know, I thought everything was history.

725
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 8: And sure enough, that younger buck that came down was

726
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:11,319
Speaker 8: the one he was fighting, and he went right past me,

727
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:14,760
Speaker 8: and then Macho he followed right behind him, and probably

728
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 8: about twenty five yards. Man, it was an absolute just

729
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 8: roller coaster, I guess of emotions.

730
00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 3: That's cool.

731
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:26,040
Speaker 2: Man, Well, you have a channel called bear Level and

732
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 2: I look forward to I want to see the experience

733
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:29,960
Speaker 2: on videos.

734
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 3: That that's cool, dude.

735
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,640
Speaker 2: So if you were looking forward here for the next week,

736
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,360
Speaker 2: you know, I know you don't have a tag in

737
00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 2: your pocket, but I bet you got some buddies that

738
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 2: are thinking about it. You're still scheming on deer, right,

739
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:45,400
Speaker 2: If you had to think about the next week and

740
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:47,799
Speaker 2: rank buck movement on a scale of one to ten,

741
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 2: what would you rank it?

742
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:49,399
Speaker 3: And why?

743
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 11: You know, it's funny you say that because I was

744
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,959
Speaker 11: just talking to you, you know, a couple of minutes ago,

745
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 11: and my buddy, we're on a deer at one of

746
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,479
Speaker 11: our places, and you know, he hadn't moved it all

747
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:06,160
Speaker 11: since June and just kind of sticking around getting the

748
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:07,439
Speaker 11: velvet pictures, you know, and.

749
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 8: Just today he started coming into our main food plot

750
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:16,759
Speaker 8: and he's been hammering every single day. So tomorrow we're

751
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 8: actually targeting him. And I've actually seen i'd say over

752
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 8: fifteen different deer hit this food plot.

753
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 3: And it's I think it's because it's just.

754
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 8: Right after this huge storm that you know, Center Country,

755
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,640
Speaker 8: and they you know, I mean, I've seen them in

756
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 8: the crazy winds and crazy rain before, just kind of

757
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,040
Speaker 8: like I was hind Macho Saturday.

758
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,920
Speaker 3: But I think after this.

759
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,799
Speaker 8: Storm, they're ready to eat and they're ready to get

760
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 8: back in there and start moving around and figuring out

761
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 8: their patterns a little bit.

762
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:52,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, So on a scale of one to ten, What

763
00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 3: are you going to call it? Oh, scale of one

764
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:54,560
Speaker 3: to ten.

765
00:35:54,520 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 8: I'd say, I'd say I'd say high sevens man.

766
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:01,840
Speaker 3: Who, that's pretty encouraging.

767
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:04,640
Speaker 8: I know, I know it's pretty encouraging. But you know,

768
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 8: we've had south winds all all week long here in

769
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:12,120
Speaker 8: southeast Tennessee and it's finally switching to the north and

770
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:14,120
Speaker 8: it's finally cooling down really.

771
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:14,800
Speaker 10: Quick in the evening.

772
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,760
Speaker 8: So yeah, I think evening hunts is probably a high seven.

773
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:21,920
Speaker 3: Man, Man, that sounds pretty good. We'll appreciate the report, dude,

774

Speaker 12: situation is lake. I'm like, brother, we got fourteen thousand

788
00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,880
Speaker 12: lakes here, man, We.

789
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 10: We literally we don't dry out too often.

790
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:05,480
Speaker 12: But yeah, it's we actually have pretty crazy conditions here.

791
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:07,640
Speaker 12: Our woods are thicker than I think I've ever seen

792
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,839
Speaker 12: because we got so much rain in June that it's

793
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:14,520
Speaker 12: like there's a noticeable difference, you know, especially coming out

794
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,960
Speaker 12: of last winter when we had really mild winter and

795
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,720
Speaker 12: then we got just tons of rain and good growing

796
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:24,200
Speaker 12: conditions this summer. It's like the animals are big and

797
00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:26,760
Speaker 12: the woods are like a jungle. It's kind of cool

798
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 12: out there.

799
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, that sounds fun.

800
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:31,040
Speaker 2: Are you out there bushwhacking and getting deep in the

801
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 2: timber or are you hunting crops?

802
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:34,719
Speaker 3: Or like what's the move right now?

803
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:37,920
Speaker 12: You know, I've been doing a little of all of

804
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:41,440
Speaker 12: the above, you know, with my daughters, had them over

805
00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:43,440
Speaker 12: in Wisconsin and we did some stuff and they ended

806
00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 12: up they ended up killing a spike buck and a

807
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 12: doe on the edge of a field on a private chunk.

808
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:50,080
Speaker 10: I've got over there.

809
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:52,719
Speaker 12: But I killed a dough just a couple of days

810
00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:54,719
Speaker 12: ago here in Minnesota on this place I just got

811
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:58,120
Speaker 12: permission to hunt. And that was in the woods, kind

812
00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,320
Speaker 12: of on an acorn, kind of on a pond, and

813
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 12: right in the middle.

814
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 10: Of the thick stuff. So kind I've kind of been

815
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:04,719
Speaker 10: all over man.

816
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, have y'all had your first frost yet?

817
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:08,759
Speaker 9: No?

818
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,680
Speaker 2: Okay, So that's always the thing that I kind of

819
00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:15,240
Speaker 2: think about when you think about whitetails shifting their patterns

820
00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 2: and all. You know, that first frost really has a

821
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 2: big effect on browse, right, and so right now you

822
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:22,879
Speaker 2: just mentioned acorns or acorns excuse me, since we're talking

823
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:28,400
Speaker 2: about Minnesota, and I'm sure that all that herbaceous growth

824
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,840
Speaker 2: is still around as that first frost approaches. I mean,

825
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:32,759
Speaker 2: y'all's first frost has to be in the next week

826
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 2: or two. Is that going to change what the deer

827
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:34,799
Speaker 2: are doing?

828
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:35,919
Speaker 10: Dude?

829
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:38,239
Speaker 12: You would think so. But we've been in We've been

830
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 12: in the eighties every day. It's been wild. We actually

831
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:43,200
Speaker 12: have a cold front moved in last night. I'm going

832
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:46,400
Speaker 12: hunting here right after this because I think there's going

833
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:48,000
Speaker 12: to be some deer on the move. But even now,

834
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:52,239
Speaker 12: it's still in the sixties. So it's pretty crazy, man.

835
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,560
Speaker 12: But it's weird because you know, last year I was

836
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 12: baiting bears and kind of dealing with that situation, and

837
00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:01,320
Speaker 12: the acorn situation was nuts and you know, some of

838
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:04,799
Speaker 12: the soft mass too, And then this year I'm not

839
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:06,200
Speaker 12: seeing nearly as many acorns.

840
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:07,279
Speaker 10: There's still plenty.

841
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,719
Speaker 12: Out there, but I saw seven dos the other night,

842
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,080
Speaker 12: seven dos and fawns off that stand where I killed

843
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 12: that one, and they all came in on an It

844
00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:17,319
Speaker 12: was eighty three degrees when I got out there.

845
00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 10: Not a single one of them went to this little pond.

846
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 12: They all just ate acorns around it, And I'm like,

847
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:25,319
Speaker 12: I kind of think it's a little bit of a

848
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 12: clue that they've been you know, they've had so much

849
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:30,680
Speaker 12: good browse and so much greenery and now we kind

850
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,640
Speaker 12: of have this limited mass thing happening and they're really

851
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,239
Speaker 12: keyed in on it, and so it's just it's cool

852
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:38,279
Speaker 12: to see because that's it's not going to last that

853
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,279
Speaker 12: long for us here, because it doesn't feel like there's

854
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 12: nearly as many out there.

855
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 10: So it's sort of like a you know, like a

856
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 10: typical mass.

857
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:45,880
Speaker 12: Thing, right, like you better get in and get on it,

858
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 12: figure it out, and then you know, expected to die

859
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:50,400
Speaker 12: on you because it's certainly going to.

860
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:53,120
Speaker 2: So you just mentioned there that you feel really good

861
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:55,720
Speaker 2: about to not in like the next upcoming days.

862
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:56,799
Speaker 3: What's the main factor on that.

863
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 10: So a couple of things.

864
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 12: You know, we had a cold front come in, so

865
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,200
Speaker 12: it's you know, we're twenty degrees colder today than we've

866
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:07,440
Speaker 12: been for two weeks, so you know when you have

867
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:11,279
Speaker 12: that going for you. But also we were like in

868
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:14,720
Speaker 12: this weather holding pattern that was just calm.

869
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 10: It was perfect fishing.

870
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:19,440
Speaker 12: Weather, like calm, sunny, just you know, eighty degrees, t

871
00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:24,040
Speaker 12: short weather, T shirt weather, shorts weather, whatever. And now

872
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:27,680
Speaker 12: last night it was real windy, and today it's just

873
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:30,759
Speaker 12: more windy as this front pushes through. So I know

874
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 12: where I'm going to go sit tonight. I know there's

875
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:35,359
Speaker 12: I know there's a little waite acorns in there, and

876
00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 12: there's one apple tree that I bet deer going to

877
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:41,759
Speaker 12: come check today because it's been windy for the first

878
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:45,400
Speaker 12: time in a couple of weeks, like really windy, and

879
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,200
Speaker 12: so I kind of think, I mean, I have a

880
00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:49,959
Speaker 12: stand set up specifically for this apple tree, and there's

881
00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,319
Speaker 12: some acorns that it'll play off of, but I kind

882
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:53,840
Speaker 12: of think that there's going to be deer coming do

883
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:55,279
Speaker 12: a quick sweep around there and check it.

884
00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:55,879
Speaker 10: And keep moving.

885
00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 2: So it seems like around the country, the word is

886
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:01,759
Speaker 2: that crop for getting harvested early. Are you seeing that

887
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:02,200
Speaker 2: there too?

888
00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:05,759
Speaker 12: You know, I haven't seen that around my house, but

889
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:07,440
Speaker 12: I'm not I'm not hunting in a place with a

890
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:09,200
Speaker 12: ton of egg. But I did see it when I

891
00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,279
Speaker 12: was with my daughters in Wisconsin, which was.

892
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:14,879
Speaker 10: I guess, you know, eight nine days ago.

893
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 12: Now they were starting to cut corn for silage, and

894
00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 12: you were starting to see some crops come out, and

895
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,120
Speaker 12: I think that I actually think that factored into a

896
00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:25,960
Speaker 12: little bit on how we ended up getting on the

897
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,240
Speaker 12: deer we did. So it's it's definitely happening.

898
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:29,240
Speaker 3: Mm hm, gotcha.

899
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just didn't know if that would play into

900
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:34,040
Speaker 2: your strategy or it seems as if, you know, you're

901
00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:37,400
Speaker 2: kind of removed from that bed to food crop pattern there,

902
00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:40,080
Speaker 2: so you kind of looking at somewhat of a main

903
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:42,400
Speaker 2: food source hunt to not huh.

904
00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:44,759
Speaker 12: Well, you know, I'm I'm hunting here in the suburbs

905
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:47,319
Speaker 12: and there are no fields around me there. Yeah, there's

906
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:49,880
Speaker 12: a farm next to this property that has it's a

907
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:53,120
Speaker 12: sod farm, so there's no food in there. It's just

908
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:58,200
Speaker 12: you know, yard grass essentially, and so these deer, they

909
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:03,240
Speaker 12: live on a pretty heavy you know, brows and masked pattern.

910
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:05,319
Speaker 12: You know, like a lot of the other places I

911
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,560
Speaker 12: hunted or I hunt, I would still be on some

912
00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:10,080
Speaker 12: kind of bed to food thing. This is this is

913
00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:12,399
Speaker 12: just a different deal here. It's just kind of a

914
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:15,440
Speaker 12: unique situation. And it's you know, it's this is a

915
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:17,839
Speaker 12: tiny property. It's only twenty five acres and so there's

916
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:19,879
Speaker 12: just a few pockets where you're like, well, they're either

917
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:20,839
Speaker 12: going to come through here to.

918
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:21,239
Speaker 3: Eat or not.

919
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:23,879
Speaker 12: And so you know, you kind of it's a small

920
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:25,600
Speaker 12: property thing. You kind of cross your fingers and hope

921
00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:26,319
Speaker 12: they show up tonight.

922
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:28,719
Speaker 2: You know, Yeah, are you using camera data to make

923
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:29,799
Speaker 2: decisions on stuff like this?

924
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:34,040
Speaker 12: So no, And the reason why I'm not is the

925
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,920
Speaker 12: landowner's wife doesn't want anybody to have cameras out there.

926
00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 10: She goes and hikes around behind her house.

927
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:43,360
Speaker 12: Yeah, so I go into this place blind and I

928
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:45,439
Speaker 12: kind of love it. I mean, I wish I could

929
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:48,879
Speaker 12: use cameras there, but I'm you know, I know, there's

930
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 12: a couple of big deer in there that swing through.

931
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:53,399
Speaker 12: Sometimes there's a couple of really nice bucks. But I'm

932
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:57,640
Speaker 12: mostly I'm mostly looking for a dough and kind of

933
00:42:57,680 --> 00:42:59,799
Speaker 12: getting ready for to take my daughters in there, and

934
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 12: it's kind of using it as a it's sort of

935
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:03,840
Speaker 12: a release valve for me because it's right next to

936
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,279
Speaker 12: my house and it's just a little hunt with like

937
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:09,360
Speaker 12: low standards. But you know, I went out there a

938
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:12,279
Speaker 12: couple of days ago and I had seven deer come

939
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:14,480
Speaker 12: through and shot a big dough and made a good

940
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:15,200
Speaker 12: shot on her, and.

941
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:17,000

943
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:21,879
Speaker 12: broke loose and those deer started showing up. I had

944
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:24,200
Speaker 12: deer around me on every side of me for forty

945
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,080
Speaker 12: five minutes and I ended up killing one and it

946
00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:29,120
Speaker 12: was just like, you know, just one of those fun deals.

948
00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:35,160
Speaker 2: don't mean this in a bad way, but it's kind

949
00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 2: of low pressure because it's right next to the house

950
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:41,880
Speaker 2: and you know, you you're everything is on the menu,

951

Speaker 2: it seems like around the country that's that is kind

959
00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:03,840
Speaker 2: of the case. Do you feel like you're going to

960
00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:06,440
Speaker 2: see good movement throughout the next week?

961
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:09,799
Speaker 10: I think next week's gonna be really good. Just by

Speaker 10: looking at the forecast, Yeah, yeah, I.

963
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,879
Speaker 12: Think I think we're sliding into the right time where

964
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:17,320
Speaker 12: it's gonna be, you know, pretty soon we're gonna be

966
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:21,959
Speaker 12: generally a little cooler, and it's it's starting to break

967
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:24,200
Speaker 12: in the right direction. I don't I guess I should.

968
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:25,840
Speaker 12: I don't know if this is unfortunate or not. But

971
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,640

973
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:36,640
