#287 - LATE SEASON Hunting on Heavily PRESSURED PUBLIC LAND w/Johnny Stewart
In this episode, John and Zach discuss hunting during the late season on heavily pressured public land. Public land can feel over-pressured during the late season but there are usually still some really good opportunities during the end of the season. Due to John’s occupation, over the years he has had a lot of time to target mature bucks on public land during the second half of the season. Zach and John discuss the challenges and benefits of late season hunting, how they find un-pressured areas, and their focus on food sources and bedding areas to pattern deer. They also discuss how a variety of weather conditions changes their strategy for that given day and how those weather conditions impact deer movement. They also discuss the challenges of finding fresh sign in lower deer density areas and what buck sign they expect to see in different habitats and terrain. Finally, they explain how they both value learning from hunting experiences in different areas and the importance of making informed theories based on observations and how that helps them stay persistent and confident.
Topics Include:
-overcoming the frustration of hunting public land after it has already been hit hard all season
-what buck sign to look for during late season hunts and how that may change based off of deer density
-how far mature bucks move in daylight during the late season
-how to adjust to different weather conditions (other than cold and snow) to anticipate buck movement
-wind shift bedding and how to capitalize on it

#289 - Deer Drives and What we Learn About BIG WOODS HUNTING - '24 Muzzleloader Season Recap
Zach, Logan, Keith, Colin, Roy, and Ben discuss their success in the annual Ohio muzzleloader drives. Over the years, we have made many changes to our strategy because we are able to learn so much every season when we all report back at the end of a drive. We have learned a ton about how deer travel through the hills, where they bed, and where they feed. No matter what style we are using throughout the season, the lessons we learn on this hunt are always a great reference and have helped us become more effective hunting in the big woods.
Topics Include:
-Deer movement in hill country
-How we use the intel learned on this hunt for solo bow/firearm hunts
Perspectives from first timers
-Adjustments to small details that create successful drives
