Wes Moye is back in the studio, and this time we're breaking down the "Wolf Pack" - the group hunting system he's spent 40 years refining to kill mature, pressured bucks that get bumped by all the other hunters in the woods. Instead of hiding his scent like everyone's taught, Wes weaponizes it. Here's the full breakdown, plus a whole lot of hard-earned wisdom (and a few stories that'll make you laugh).In this episode:The Wolf Pack method explained — how a group uses human scent (not leg power) to move pressured bucks toward waiting huntersWhere the idea came from — the African painted wolves documentary that made it all clickWhy it's NOT a "man drive" — and how Wes answers the criticsReading pressured deer — why you should treat every deer like it's already been huntedFinding the exits — low spots, drainages, and cover that funnel bucks out of thick coverDeer pattern hunters — Wes's camera experiment proving it, and how he flips it to kill target bucksThe Art of War in the deer woods — deception, feints, and beating a buck at his own gameHunting thick cover — why the nastiest bedding areas hold the biggest bucksKnowledge vs. wisdom — why applied experience beats anything you'll read or watchTiming the rut in Alabama and adapting your setup through every phase of the seasonRunning Wolf Pack fundamentals solo when you don't have a groupPlus camp stories, hard lessons, and why the bad days teach you the mostJoin our Circle Community here - ⁠https://linkly.link/2o0SnGrab some Southern Outdoorsmen merch here - https://l.linklyhq.com/l/1u4aKJoin Woodsman Wire - https://l.linklyhq.com/l/1u4aRUse code “SOUTHERN” for a discount on Whitetail Hill food plot seed & trees - https://linkly.link/2myBPUse the promo code “southern” for a discount on your OnX Hunt membership here - https://l.linklyhq.com/l/1tyfmCheck out Latitude Outdoors for your mobile hunting gear - https://2ly.link/1zVDIUse code TSOP15 for a discount on Mossy Oak - https://linkly.link/2ERb8Use code SOUTHERN20 for a discount on all Vortex apparel, including eyewearHave you tagged a deer using something you heard on the show?

Last season, mature bucks across the Southeast behaved DIFFERENTLY. Deer disappeared from traditional patterns, harvest numbers dropped, and hunters struggled to make sense of it. In this episode, we break down how last year’s massive acorn crop may have changed deer movement, buck survival, rut activity, and what it could mean for the upcoming season. We also break down why this coming season has the potential to be one of the best deer seasons of the last decade...if the conditions line up correctly! Got a question for the show?

In this episode we are joined by our friend Kyle Sides, who has been tagging along with us on some hunts after he tagged out in Alabama earlier this season! Kyle is younger than a lot of guys we interview on turkey hunting, but he is a true woodsman and is skilled at turkey hunting well beyond his years. We talk about Kyle's fast and aggressive hunting style, how to get in a bird's bubble to make him callable, and how these tactics paid off for Jacob with his 2nd public land longbeard of the season here in Alabama!

In this episode, we break down the idea that every gobbler has a short window—sometimes just 3 days—where he can be called, worked, and tagged. If you don’t recognize it, you’ll hunt right through it and never know he was beatable. We cover how to identify that window, what changes in a gobbler’s behavior, and the mistakes that keep hunters from capitalizing on it. From henned-up birds to late-season shifts, this episode is about understanding when the odds finally swing in your favor—and being ready when they do. Topics discussed: The “3-day window” when a gobbler is killable How to recognize when a bird becomes vulnerable Common mistakes that cause hunters to miss their opportunity Calling strategies when gobblers are with hens Why calling to the gobbler isn’t always the right move Late-season behavior and how it changes your approach Knowing when to stay, move, or back out The mindset shift that leads to more consistent success Got a question for the show?

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Patrick Wightman, National Director of Research for the NWTF, to break down what the latest research is revealing about wild turkeys—and what it means for hunters. From large-scale population trends to on-the-ground behavior, this conversation covers some of the most important (and often misunderstood) findings shaping the future of turkey hunting. In this episode, we cover: What $20M+ in turkey research is uncovering across the country Why turkey populations are declining—and the biggest factor driving it What happens after you leave a gobbler (and why patience matters more than you think) The truth about harvest rates and how hunting actually impacts populations How hunting pressure affects gobbling activity throughout the season The role of early successional habitat—and why it’s critical for brood survival What GPS and field studies are revealing about turkey movement and behavior Differences between “homebody” gobblers vs roaming birds How land management practices directly impact turkey numbers What hunters and landowners can do right now to improve habitat and success If you’re serious about understanding turkeys at a deeper level—and becoming a more effective hunter—this episode is packed with insight you won’t hear anywhere else.

Henry Ott is a third-generation turkey hunter from South Alabama with over 60 years of experience in the woods. He learned from his father and grandfather—long before modern gear, when success depended on woodsmanship, patience, and understanding turkeys at a deeper level. Over decades of hunting the same country, Henry noticed something most hunters overlook: Gobblers aren’t random. They run a route. And if you’re not set up on it… you’re already too late. In this episode, Henry breaks down how turkeys actually move, how hens dictate everything a gobbler does, and why positioning—not calling—is what consistently kills birds. This is old-school knowledge built from a lifetime of watching turkeys in big timber, long before today’s tactics took over. If you’ve ever had a gobbler hang up, disappear, or just not do what he “should” do… this will change how you think about turkey hunting. In this episode: • Why gobblers follow a route instead of moving randomly • How hens control gobbler movement throughout the day • The biggest setup mistake most hunters make • Why chasing gobblers almost always backfires • How to get ahead of a gobbler instead of behind him • Lessons learned from 60+ years of turkey hunting Got a question for the show?

Turkey season is here, and we're pulling one out of the vault for this week's throwback Thursday episode. Scott Ellis joins us for one of the most tactical turkey hunting conversations we've ever had on the show. Scott breaks down his signature "hide the hen" setup strategy — the idea that where you sit when you call matters just as much as how you call. If a gobbler can look over and confirm no hen is standing there, he's gone. Scott walks through exactly how to use terrain features like elevation changes, bends in roads, field edges, and thickets to get birds into gun range before they ever see you. Beyond the setup, Scott covers how to handle pressured and non-callable birds, how to read a gobbler's behavior and adjust your aggression level on the fly, afternoon hunting tactics, calling volume based on pressure and weather, and how to pick which bird to target when multiple toms are on the roost. If you're headed to the woods this season, this one is worth the listen. Got a question for the show?

For decades, Lamar Williams has been quietly shaping the world of custom turkey calls. But outside of tight circles of call makers and serious turkey hunters, most people have never heard his story. Lamar started chasing turkeys in the 1960s — long before turkey hunting exploded in popularity. Over the years he became a respected custom call maker, building calls that serious hunters seek out across the country. But if you expect this conversation to be about gear… you’re going to be surprised. According to Lamar, buying more calls won’t make you a better turkey hunter. What actually matters is something most modern hunters overlook. Woodsmanship. In this episode, Lamar shares lessons learned from over 50 years of hunting wild turkeys, including how fall hunting teaches you more about turkey behavior than most hunters ever learn, why gobblers often won’t come back when you call, and the skills that separate consistently successful hunters from everyone else. If you want to understand turkeys — not just call at them — this conversation is packed with hard-earned wisdom. In this episode we discuss: • Why woodsmanship matters more than turkey calls • Lessons from  fall turkey hunting • Why gobblers often won’t come back when you call • How to understand turkey travel patterns and terrain • The story behind Lamar’s custom turkey calls • Why experience in the woods still beats gadgets This episode is a masterclass in old-school turkey hunting knowledge. If you enjoy learning from hunters who have spent a lifetime in the woods, you’ll love this one. Got a question for the show?

We also talk through shotgun setups, choke and ammo combinations, and how long it realistically takes most hunters to kill their first turkey. Topics in this episode: • When and how to use locator calls for turkeys • How often you should scout a gobbling bird • Dealing with hunting pressure on public land • Turkey choke and ammo setups that actually work • How long it takes most hunters to kill their first turkey If you’ve got turkey questions you want answered on a future episode, submit them on our website.

Today we are joined by our buddy Aaron Warbritton of The Hunting Public! Aaron is a rare blend of old-school woodsmanship and modern tactical thinking. He understands the fundamentals, but he also adapts to how turkeys behave under heavy pressure. That combination is what makes him one of the most effective public land hunters that we know. In this conversation, we cover: How to find “the X” on unfamiliar public land Why habitat + pressure dictate everything How to break down new ground fast Early vs late season turkey strategy When to sit patiently — and when to move How pressure changes gobbler behavior Beating other hunters without racing them Reading terrain for the 30–50 yard kill window Locator calls on pressured birds Why most hunters leave too early The mindset required to hunt multiple states successfully This is a masterclass in public land turkey hunting — from the mental approach to the in-the-woods execution. If you want to consistently kill public land gobblers anywhere, this one is worth your time. Got a question for the show?

Today we have a special interview for you guys. We were able to sit down with 82 year old Claude Strother of Gastonburg, Alabama for an in depth discussion on his life & turkey hunting. At the time we recorded this interview Mr. Claude was battling cancer, and unfortunatley he passed away just a few weeks before the release of this episode. In this episode, Claude shares stories from the early days of turkey hunting, how the sport has changed over the years, and what he believes most hunters get wrong today. We talk old-school turkey hunting tactics, calling styles, patience, woodsmanship, and why getting close still matters more than gear or gimmicks. Along the way, Claude reflects on a lifetime spent in the woods, the lessons turkey hunting has taught him, and the importance of preserving hunting stories, southern heritage, and the culture that comes with it. This episode isn’t just about killing turkeys...it’s about wisdom earned, mistakes made, and a way of life that’s slowly fading. Got a question for the show?

In this Thursday Q&A episode, we break down listener questions covering funnels, mock scrapes, late-season doe scouting, clearing shooting lanes, and aging deer. We dive into when (and when not) scrapes actually matter, how trail cameras can mislead you during the rut, and why deer movement often looks very different in real time than it does on camera. We also talk through cold-weather rut behavior, hunting pressure, scent disturbance, and how to adjust your strategy as scraping activity dies off and chasing ramps up. Along the way, we share real-world observations from recent hunts and discuss why hunting the fringes and reading sign on the ground can be more valuable than relying solely on trail cam data.

In this video, we sit down with our good buddy Scott Seales, who has been a big deer hunting mentor for us in the last few years! Scott's advice directly helped Jacob and Andrew tag their last two bucks, including Jacob's biggest Alabama buck to date! We start by going over how Jacob found the spot he hunted and tagged his big buck on a new-to-him piece of public land in Alabama. We then discuss why a lot of hunters have the skills they need to be successful, yet they still struggle. Scott goes over how he keeps things simple and explains where most guys go wrong when it comes to overthinking big bucks. We are also joined by Andrew's stepdad, Mike Dillon to get an update on his season and learn what has made the biggest difference for him going from not seeing many deer last season, to tagging two bucks and a doe this season.

In this episode we are hitting some listener Q&A submissions, then talking about Andrew's recent successful hunt on his second big buck of the season! Listener questions: Should I hunt over this signpost rub? Are hiking trails good for accessing spots clean? Hot scrape post rut: hunt it or stay on food? We then dive into what Andrew has learned this season when it comes to trail cams, and the kind of sign that beats trail cam pictures any day, but especially during the rut!

DC Tabbscott has mastered the art of getting permission to hunt from landowners. His system works so well, that he was able to get permission to hunt a property to hunt a 170" Alabama buck, which he ended up tagging this past season! This buck was well known in the area and DC was able to get permission to hunt property that many other hunters had been denied permission to hunt. In this episode we do a deep dive into what it takes to get landowner permission to hunt, whether it is a small property that the owner lives on, a larger property with an absenttee landowner, or even lands owned by LLC's or corperations. DC breaks down why people fail at getting permission and shares the system that has become extremely effective for him. We also cover the incredible story of his Alabama giant and how the hunt went down, from losing access to the property he thought he would tag it on, to encounters with police & more!

Jacob was able to catch up with a buck in the palmettos this week! In this episode, we cover some listener Q&As, including: - If you see a lot of turkeys in an area, is that a good sign that deer are in the area? - Will deer minerals with anti-parasitic medication in them help your deer herd? - What is the best way to access stands that the wind just isnt quite right for, but you still really want to hunt?

Postseason scouting is the best time to learn what deer are doing and build year-over-year knowledge. In this episode we break down what to look for after the season—defined trails, bedding areas, scrape movement, and how leaf-off conditions reveal where deer feel most secure. We also answer questions on mock scrapes, trail cam timing, and whether you should hunt a clearcut from the ground or elevated. Got a question for the show?

In this episode, we sit down with Dan Moultrie for a story-filled conversation about big bucks, legendary hunts, and why hunting should always stay fun. Dan shares years of experience from the iconic Kennedy Ranch in South Texas, often called the Augusta National of deer hunting, where rattling in multiple mature bucks and seeing world-class whitetails was the norm. We talk age-class deer management, book deer expectations, wild rattling encounters, close calls with snakes, and what it was like hunting with some of the most recognizable names in the outdoor industry. More importantly, we dig into the camaraderie, etiquette, and mindset that make hunting meaningful long after the shot. This one’s about more than antlers—it’s about stories, friendships, and the reason we all fell in love with the woods in the first place. Got a question for the show?

In this throwback episode, we sit down with our buddies Nick Harris & Scott Seales, who are some seasoned public-land killers, to break down how they consistently find and kill mature bucks during the Southern rut.

Late season on public land is a whole different game. In this episode, Johnny Stewart breaks down how mature bucks survive heavy pressure, how cold weather and snow shift movement, and why late-season hunts are won around food, wind, and smart access. If deer have gone “nocturnal” where you hunt, this is the playbook to get back in the game. Got a question for the show?

In this episode, Andrew and Jacob sit down with public-land bowhunter Benji Vote to break down how he consistently kills mature bucks in big hill-country and river-bottom terrain. Benji explains why he trusts fresh tracks over old rubs, how rain resets the woods, and the way he uses creeks, oxbows, and flooded timber to pin down where big deer actually travel.He walks through his process for finding “the right doe group,” reading historical sign versus hot sign, and how big bucks use water, edges, and wind to lock down does where other hunters won’t go. The guys dig into hunting the lockdown phase of the rut, all-day sits, watching how deer truly move in thick cover, and building the confidence to set up in weird spots—like chest-deep water—when the sign and conditions line up.Along the way, Benji shares stories of bucks that “whipped his tail” for seasons before he finally killed them, what those deer taught him about pressure and patterns, and how his mindset has shifted from just finding sign to understanding how a single mature buck uses a specific pocket of terrain.

Today, we are talking with  @WhitetailResearch  on some extremely unique and interesting insights into buck behavior that have come out of a year-long thermal drone study! Derrick Dixon is the man behind the channel/website Whitetail Research. In today's episode we dive into his findings from his year long study using a thermal drone to observe buck movement. Subjects: • The factor that allowed Derrick to time when bucks would get up & move. • Do bucks really move farther in the morning or evening? • Are thermals more important than wind? • How much do acorns change deer movement? • Why don’t mature bucks show up in fields during daylight? • Could your access strategy be hurting you more than you think? • Are the funnels you’re hunting actually risky spots for bucks? • What really happens in staging areas before dark? • What can drones reveal that GPS collars can’t? and a TON more!

In this part 2 episode with Alan Altizer, we go deep on the difference in hunting any buck vs. focusing on one buck. We also have an extremley in depth conversation on wind, thermals and how mature bucks use them in ways other deer do not. Other subjects: The difference in mindset between hunting any buck versus targeting one specific mature buck. How tactics shift depending on whether you’re hunting for opportunity or for a particular deer. The role of trail cameras — when they help, when they mislead, and why woodsmanship still matters more. Instinct and experience as defining qualities of great hunters. How patience, diligence, and time in the woods separate consistently successful hunters from others. Why repetition (getting reps) killing deer with a bow builds confidence and sharpens execution. The importance of woodsmanship skills (judging distance, reading sign, moving quietly, handling wind and thermals). The difference between being able to kill deer in general vs. consistently killing mature bucks. The value of learning from mistakes and adapting strategies instead of repeating failures. The idea that success in hunting mirrors success in life — dedication, persistence, and growth. Got a question for the show?

In this episode of The Southern Outdoorsmen Podcast, we sit down with legendary hunter Alan Altizer to talk about one of the most powerful deer hunting concepts you’ll ever hear: how a buck’s greatest strength can also be his biggest weakness.Alan shares decades of hard-earned woodsmanship — from reading washed-out tracks and understanding how deer use their senses, to why trail cameras can actually work against you. He explains how mature bucks rely on their strongest traits for survival, and how hunters can use those very strengths to finally outsmart them. • How to read tracks to understand a buck’s behavior • Why some bucks rely more on sight, smell, or sound — and how that changes their bedding • The concept of “kamikaze setups” and making a buck feel safe before moving in • Why trail cameras may give you more problems than solutions • How to exploit a buck’s strengths and turn them into weaknessesGot a question for the show?

This is a fun one! We asked you guys to send in questions on our social media accounts, and y'all delivered! In this episode, we are running through a long list of listener questions. Many of the questions have to do with early-season hunting and scrapes, while others focus on terrain features and more! In a food-rich environment, how do you narrow down the feed trees to hunt? How do you find bucks in October when they aren’t laying down much sign? How do you find deer sign in Piney Woods with little to no terrain features? Underrated tips for hunting public ground? Hunting funnels vs. hunting sign in the mountains — pros and cons? Early season — would you prioritize bedding areas, feed trees, or trails between the two? August 15th and it’s hot — kudzu patch in a creek bottom or just off an ag field’s edge? Found a buck coming to ag. Move in and scout the bedding or set up on the edge of the ag in September? Where do y’all usually find early season scrapes in pine/SMZ terrain for buck inventory? Do y’all have any examples of Piney Woods rut funnels? Have you seen more success scouting into an area and setting up on best sign, or scouting and then coming back later? What are the top three browse species deer prefer in the South? I’m a Florida hunter. I can find bucks but have trouble killing them with 4–6 day quota hunts. Any tips? What are some good terrain features or areas to find community scrapes in steep hill country? Where do you make mock scrapes and how do you make them? Straight wall cartridge or muzzleloader during alternate gun season? If straight wall, what is preferred? What’s the dream hunt for you guys? If you could only go on one more hunt, what would the hunt be and where? What are y’all’s rifle setups? How do you deal with the difficulty of leaving your kids/family to go on a hunting trip?

What really makes a buck disappear? In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Steve Ditchkoff from the Auburn University Deer Lab—one of the most respected whitetail researchers in the country—to unpack the real science behind deer movement, hunting pressure, and how deer learn to avoid us. We cover decades of GPS-collar research and get into the nuts and bolts of what’s really happening in the woods when the deer hunker down. Whether you hunt every weekend or just once a season, this episode is packed with insights that will change the way you think about deer behavior. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: • How deer pattern hunters—and not the other way around • Why mature bucks vanish after just one encounter • The surprising role hunting pressure plays in movement • When deer are most likely to move during daylight • The truth about culling bucks and its long-term impact • Why deer avoid heavily hunted areas—even when hunters aren’t present • How Dr. Ditchkoff’s research has changed the way he hunts This isn’t just theory—it’s backed by over 20 years of real-world, scientific data from across the Southeast. Recorded at Auburn University, this conversation blends research, experience, and practical advice for the everyday deer hunter.

In this episode, we sit down with Brandon Gowan, a longtime listener turned lethal public land deer hunter. Over the last four years, Brandon has built an incredibly repeatable system for killing mature bucks on high-pressure land — and he shares it all in this detail-packed conversation. Brandon breaks down how a Japanese philosophy of continuous improvement from his job at Toyota transformed the way he hunts. He shares how asking “why” has helped him pattern bucks, refine his trail camera strategies, and create a career-hunting balance that gives him a major edge. We also dig into: How Brandon uses trail camera data patterns, not guesses, to pick kill dates Why every buck he’s killed on public was already on camera How “asking why until there’s no more why” leads to better results in the woods His go-to terrain features — and the exact setup that keeps producing big bucks The power of annual patterns and how he uses a simple calendar to predict buck movement The importance of finding big tracks, not just rubs and scrapes Why terrain funnels produce more consistent daylight buck activity than sign Mentorship lessons from his old-school, big buck–killing father Whether you’re still figuring out public land or looking to take your hunting to the next level, Brandon’s story offers a real-world blueprint for doing more with less — and finding repeatable success in pressured places.

When the gobblers get tight-lipped and hang up just out of range, that’s when lifelong woodsman Brian Parker gets excited. In this sit-down we pull decades of Georgia turkey experience out of Brian— from box-call finesse to patience ambushes that turn the toughest toms into tagged birds. The tough turkeys are the ones where you create your style and learn the most. In this episode, Brian walks us through how he got started hunting, learning from his uncles and others. He explains how he took their hunting strategy and molded it into his own. This is a must listen episode whether you have been hunting for 1 year or 30 years!

In this episode, we sit down with Scott Trulock, owner of Trulock Chokes and a true Southern outdoorsman, to talk about all things turkey hunting, shotguns, and the wild journey of learning to hunt when no one else in your family does it. Scott shares how he got hooked on turkey hunting after his time in the Marine Corps — with no mentors, no traditions, and no roadmap. We dive deep into how hunting in the Deep South has changed over the years, why today’s turkey seasons feel so different, and how gear (especially chokes) has evolved to meet modern hunters’ needs. Plus, Scott breaks down critical tips around choosing the right choke for your shotgun, why over-choking is a real problem, and how hunters can avoid some of the biggest mistakes that cost them birds. If you’re struggling with tight-lipped late season gobblers, missed shots, or trying to figure out the best setup for your shotgun, this is the episode for you!

"Coach" Ron Watters and Bo Smith each have over 50 years of turkey hunting experience. They both cut their teeth turkey hunting in the hills of east Alabama, learning from the old-time turkey hunters back in the 1960s and 70s. In this interview, we talk with them about how they got started turkey hunting, who were the men who first taught them, and dig into wisdom that can only be gained through over 5 decades of chasing wild turkeys on public and leased ground in the Deep South!

Today, we are doing a THROWBACK to one of our favorite scouting episodes! Nathan Killen & Rusty Johnson are both top-notch hunters when it comes to targeting mature bucks on public land, and on this episode, we had them both on to discuss their post-season scouting strategies. Rusty Johnson and Nathan Killen have several things in common, things like consistently tagging some of the biggest bucks in their area, and a love for post-season scouting & shed hunting. Both Rusty and Nathan attribute a lot of their success to the work they are putting in right now to learn their woods, sharpen their wordsmanship skills, locate surviving bucks and find sheds. We got Nathan and Rusty on at the same time to dive into this subject and share their knowledge, as well as bounce things off one another. As Nathan says in this episode, iron sharpens iron and the guys get into a lot of great information here.

For this episode we traveled to Starkville Mississippi to sit down with Dr. Bronson Strickland of Mississippi State Universities Deer Lab about their recent deep dive into GPS data! MSU took a hard look at the data around buck movement and how it is influenced by BOTH moon phase and moon position. This is a fascinating episode that you will not want to miss! We discuss: Moon phase vs moon position and the theories about how each effect buck movement Narrowing down GPS data to look at buck movement, SPECIFICALLY at major and minor movement times according to moon calendars The VERY surprising percentage of bucks that are bedded down at any given time of day Is the red moon theory fact or fiction? What most hunters think when it comes to the moon Does moon phase or moon position make one day better than another for deer hunting? (and if so, how?) The data around overhead/underfoot moon times and how bucks react to it and TONS more!

Today we answer that question with Dr. Gino D'Angelo of the University of Georgia!Dr. D'Angelo is a professor of Deer Ecology & Managment at Warnell School of Forestry and Natural Resources at University of Georgia. Throughout his tenure he has been a part of many studies related to whitetail deer, including GPS collar studies across the southeast!

Today, we are bringing it back to the classic of all classics for the Southern Outdoorsmen Podcast - Episode 116 with Glen Solomon. Glen was a true woodsman in every sense of the word and was a local legend in his home state of Georgia! In this episode, we do a deep dive into Glen's thought process when it comes to hunting whitetails on pressured WMA's across Georgia. The year before we recorded this podcast, Glen tagged 5 mature bucks in Georgia on 5 different WMA's (utilizing bonus buck hunts on WMA's after he tagged out). About one month after we recorded this episode, Glen passed away, and we are glad we were able to record this and preserve this local legend, speaking on what he did best in his own voice.As a longtime writer for GON, Glen had a lot of unpublished work. After Glen's passing, his family posthumously published some of Glen's work.

Today we are throwing it back to one of our all time favorites, EP 300 with our buddy Clifton Denney! This episode has produced a ton of listener success stories over the years and we felt this was the perfect time to bring it back to the top of the feed!Have you ever had the wind switch and swirl on you in the stand? If you've hunted for any length of time then the answer is yes - and today we have Clifton Denney of Arkansas on to discuss. Clifton dives into how you can use your topo map to predict wind currents and know how the wind will ramp off hills, swirl, eddie and interact with everything it runs into, even trees! This is a deep dive on wind and we get into the weeds on subjects such as how wind velocity will effect where and how the wind swirls, and where bucks will cruse. Clifton uses his knowledge of the wind to predict where bucks will be cruising based on day to day predictions, and he has used his knowledge to knock down quite a few nice bucks. You wont want to miss this one!Check out Clifton's video referenced in the podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8t1s2jFffIGot a question for the show?

We have been VERY excited to get this episode out to y'all! This week we are talking with Daniel Williams about using annual patterns to precisely predict mature buck movement patterns. Daniel has perfected this tactic over many years and has used it to tag mature bucks in areas where other hunters struggle! The best part about this tactic is that you probably already have everything you need to start using it. Subjects: Understanding that mature bucks' daylighting is NOT random Utilizing trail cam data & in-person observations to find the EXACT dates you need to hunt an area Why the wind is now meaningless to Daniel Killing a mature buck in an area you'd NEVER expect based on sign Scouting to find a mature buck's "loop" Finding where the home ranges of multiple bucks intersect Building a "hunt calendar" to know EXACTLY where to hunt and when Taking the guesswork out of stand locations Why you need to pay extra-close attention to historical rubs How pressure can move the deer sign away from where it "should be" Get a copy of Daniel's book here - https://2ly.link/1xvqcCheck out Daniel's youtube channel here - https://www.youtube.com/@thecedarridgechroniclesGot a question for the show?

The Dilla is back! On this episode, we are joined by our good buddy Michael Pike, known to many as "the Dilla" (short for armadillo, because he has turned over every leaf in Alabama looking for big bucks!). We catch up with him on his awesome 2023 season where he tagged out in AL with 3 great bucks, two of which were big 10 points - all on public. Subjects include: How Michael got severely burned out on deer hunting & then got back into it The intangible aspect of being good at deer hunting Why your tactics haven't been working Listening to the woods (literally) to find deer Building upon each hunt to increase your odds every time The best way to plan out-of-state hunts The camaraderie of having hunting buddies, and how it makes you hunt better and tons more! It was great catching up and we are sure the dilla will be back on the show throughout the year.Got a question for the show?

Today we are doing a throwback to one of our favorite turkey episodes we have ever done! Mike Pentecost is an absolute wealth of turkey hunting knowledge, and we traveled to sit down with him to pick his brain on what the differences are between turkey hunters and turkey killers! Mike dives into subjects such as all the details that 90% of turkey hunters overlook that have a huge impact on their success rate, tagging turkeys with either "your feet or your seat", the importance of perception in turkey hunting and how a focus in this area will immediately start changing your turkey hunting for the better, and how he is extremely successful well into the mid and late season when a lot of other hunters struggle.

For this very special episode 500 we decided to give the mic over to some of our listeners! We interviewed several listeners who came by our booth at the World Deer Expo in Birmingham to break down HOW they have taken tactics from the show and successfully applied them across the southeast!500 episodes is a HUGE milestone for us, and we want to say THANK YOU to all of our listeners for tuning in every week. When we started out we felt there was a huge gap in hunting media - the average Southern hunter seemed to be left out! Most informational/helpful content out there was heavily geared toward the Midwest. We wanted to create a resource to fill that gap by finding the best local, real-world deer hunters across our region. Over the years our search for the best woodsmen the country has to offer has brought us to meet some of the most genuine folks we have ever met - and we have established so many great friendships because of it. We would also like to say a special thanks to all of our past guests, who selflessly gave us interviews to help out complete strangers! The show would be nothing without their generosity and expertise!So thanks for 500 everyone, and here's to the next 500! Stay Southern!Got a question for the show?

It was great getting to hear a room full of such great deer hunters discuss what makes each of them successful, and how they each approach different situations. Johnathan, Jeremy and Carl being more familiar with flat river bottom/swamp habitat, and Scott & Daniel are more keen on hunting in the hills. Subjects include: A deep dive on feed trees from each hunter's perspective Finding that "ice cream" tree that the bucks seem to gravitate to Finding those special feed trees to come back to year after year Judging a bucks rack by rubs High barometric pressure days, good or bad for buck movement? Hunting the backside of the rut to target the BIG deer and a TON more!Got a question for the show?

Today we have them both on the show for part 1 of a series on buck hubs! Subjects in this episode include: Shane's giant web of 170 cameras and weather stations across a relatively small area Defining a buck hub, and how they are different from other hubs How bedding directly relates to buck hubs How Shane & Paul are catching mature bucks who routinely avoid trail cams with a purpose Why mature bucks rarely use major deer trails & how to find their faint trails And TONS more!

Subjects include finding faint trails in lower deer density areas, reading rubs to determine what kind of deer made the rub, the patterns of buck sign they found, adjusting to scouting/hunting an area with a complete lack of pine thickets, how much of a factor oak species seems to play a factor in the area, some textbook buck beds they found and more!Visit our partners here: https://linktr.ee/SoPartners Our Sponsors:* Check out Outdoorsy and use my code OUTDOORSMEN for a great deal: https://www.outdoorsy.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
