Caleb & Ethan in the secondary studio talking all about Caleb's opening day Ohio buck, a deer we called 7 Card. The hunt was everything we could ever ask out of an opening day bow hunt culminating in Caleb's second biggest archery buck.

Originally aired on October 4th, 2025. On this episode, Doug interviews Wayne Arrington, President of Arride Bikes, to discuss how incredible an e-bike can be for your outdoors experience. Doug also talks about Washington DC challenging a gun-related state law in Hawaii, and much more.

Opening day of bow season is here, and Todd, Justin, & Ben are kicking things off in northern Illinois with temps pushing into the mid-80s. From scouting cut corn and bean fields, to testing new gear and grabbing last-minute tags, it's a classic opener full of ups, downs, and laughs. This hunt is extra special—it's one of Todd's last chances on a farm that has taught him so much over the years. We set up over a rebuilt waterhole, dial in the stands, and wait out the heat in hopes of catching some early-season movement.

In this episode, Kurt shares a quick update on his summer adventures—canoe trips, big fish, and family time—before diving into some serious whitetail prep. Follow along as he builds a DIY mock rub/scrape tree using PVC, Quikrete, and a white pine branch to create the perfect setup in front of one of his favorite stand locations. From digging through rocky soil to hanging a licking branch and setting a trail camera, Kurt shows the full process of how he gets deer in bow range before October arrives. Whether you're looking for early-season prep ideas or just want to see another way to get deer in front of your stand, this is one project you'll want to try.

This week Leigh talks about the future of The Let Off and the big changes that are coming, he also talks about the harsh realities of bowhunting, not getting bogged down by archery season, and reads some more scam emails.

The 2024 deer season was anything but easy for Justin. Between balancing family life, long sits in the stand, missed opportunities, and a streak of bad luck, this year tested his patience more than ever. From helping his son Joey chase his first deer with a bow, to countless sits without seeing a shooter, Justin's season was full of ups, downs, and plenty of laughs along the way. Follow along as Justin battles through a tough fall in Illinois, encounters his target buck more than once, and reminds us that sometimes the real story of hunting isn't about the kill—it's about the grind, the memories, and the time spent in the woods.

In this episode of the Deer IQ podcast we continue in our series on mobile hunting details that make the difference, focusing on  mobile hunting basics most overlook,  even some veterans to the game. I'm with the Amsteel Guy, who specializes in modifications for mobile hunting systems and we talk about how he became known as the amsteel guy, why he thinks certain mods can make all the difference to your system, what he says is the TOP factor predicting success or failure at mobile hunting, what I hate about mobile hunting and why, and of course a lot more high IQ stuff as well. This is an episode geared toward beginners to mobile hunting, but is good for all mobile hunters who want to fine tune their approach.*Amsteel Guy Website: https://theamsteelguy.com/ DEER IQ Resources:** Season 3 Quiz: https://deeriq.com/season-3-quiz/ • Take the Deer IQ Test 360 HERE: https://deeriq.com/full-assessment/ • Get a Strategic Land & Hunting Plan for your Private Hunting Property HERE: https://deeriq.com/land-and-hunting-plans/ • GENERAL INFO about ALL Deer IQ Resources HERE: https://deeriq.com/services/ CONNECT These OTHER WAYS with Deer IQ!Website: https://deeriq.com  Facebook Private Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/511109237864762  Deer IQ  FREE Journal: https://deeriq.com/journal/  Pressured Public Lands Hunting Guide:  https://deeriq.com/public-land-hunting-guide/  Newsletter Signup: https://deeriq.com/signup/  Patreon - Contribute Financially to Deer IQ: https://www.patreon.com/DeerIQPatreon   Scent Control Regimen: https://deeriq.com/scentcontrol-regimen/  Episode #108Guest: Host Adam Lewis, Amsteel GuyIQ ranking - 1 (Beginner)

In this episode of Becoming a Bowhunter, Matty is joined by Jamie Macintosh and Hayden Reylewski. These two recently conducted a sound test on arrows, and what they found is pretty incredible. Inside this episode, we go into all of the elements they tested and break down exactly what makes your arrows loud or quiet while they're soaring through the air. The boys then help to draw the lines between their data and what that means for us bowhunters. Pretty much the sound of your arrow in flight could be the difference between an animal ducking the shot or not.  Podcast Topics: Testing Methods: How they measure bow and arrow noise with chronographs, microphones, and a backyard DIY setup that actually worksChallenges in Testing: The impact of changing humidity, shifting light, and what it takes to get results that hold up in the fieldArrow Flight & Noise: How fletching, helical twist, and nock setup all change the sound of your shotBroadhead Comparisons: Two blades versus three, long and pointy versus wide and stubby, vented versus solid, and what that means for noiseReal-World Impacts: Stories of animals jumping the string and how small sound changes can make a big differenceFuture Gear & Testing Plans: What the boys have planned for further tests, plus where you can see the data and use this information for your arrow setup.  Whether you're a gear tinkerer or just want to make your setup as silent as possible, this is one of the most practical deep dives we've ever done.

This week on Driftwood Outdoors, Brandon Butler and Nathan McLeod welcome guest Keith Hannaman to talk all things bear hunting across the country and here in Missouri.What should've been a smooth conversation turned into one of the wildest recordings yet — Brandon's iMac Pro took a nosedive, Missouri weather kept knocking Keith offline, and the whole thing quickly spiraled into a comical disaster.Still, amidst the chaos, the crew managed to cover bear hunting, Keith's days playing football at Penn State, the kickoff of archery season, and of course, the Mystery Bait Bucket.It might be our most technically cursed episode yet, but it's packed with good laughs and a little bit of outdoor wisdom.Special thanks to:Living The Dream Outdoor PropertiesSuperior Foam Insulation LLCDoolittle TrailersScenic Rivers TaxidermyConnect with Driftwood Outdoors:FacebookInstagramYouTubeEmail:info@driftwoodoutdoors.com

Send us a textWant to see more mature bucks during daylight hours this season? Clifton Denny from On Your Own Outdoors reveals game-changing tactics that fly in the face of conventional deer hunting wisdom.The most eye-opening revelation? Mature bucks aren't actually "going nocturnal" - they're simply responding to patterns hunters unknowingly establish. Clifton explains how the common practice of filling feeders after work at 5-6pm is precisely why your target buck only appears on camera at night. By shifting your feeding schedule to 10pm and changing your bait type right before hunting, you create the perfect scenario for daylight encounters.The conversation unveils the power of "fat lines" - those mysterious thicker contour lines on topographical maps that consistently mark high deer activity zones. What started as a theory has been field-tested with remarkable success, with hunters reporting mature buck sightings exactly where these terrain features appear on maps. Clifton's comprehensive breakdown of this approach gives listeners a significant advantage for early season success.Beyond technical strategies, the episode dives into fascinating observations about deer behavior during velvet-shedding period, bachelor group dispersal, and critical early-season food sources like persimmon and honey locust trees. The discussion even addresses regional hunting differences, with practical advice for Arkansas hunters looking to adapt their skills to different terrains.Whether you're a weekend warrior or a dedicated trophy hunter, these practical, field-tested approaches will transform your early season strategy. After implementing these tactics, you'll never look at your hunting property - or your trail camera results - the same way again.GUEST WEBSITE: https://www.onyourownoutdoors.comGUEST YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/cliftondenneyonyourownoutdoorsOUR WEBSITE/OTC MERCH: https://offtheclockwithbscott.comHAVOC GEAR SHOP: https://havocnation.comHAVOC BOATS WEBSITE: https://havocboats.comHAVOC DEALERS: https://havocboats.com/dealers/WREAKIN' HAVOC CREW WEBSITE: https://wreakinhavoccrew.comSOCIAL LINKSTruth Social: https://truthsocial.com/@OffTheClockwithBScottFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Off-The-Clock-With-B-Scott/61557737220814/Twitter (X): https://twitter.com/OTCwithBScottInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/offtheclockwithbscott/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwu6_wWcXDoBzhpHv4YgZGQRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-5644782Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2g76hRDp9d609LETevSH2U?si=0ba23ae282c94e88&nd=1&dlsi=d9f84d7699b84724Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/off-the-clock-with-b-scott/id1734265760

After years of waiting to draw an Iowa deer tag, Matt Millard finally sets out on a 3-week public land bowhunting adventure in the heart of the Midwest. From endless scouting miles and battling heavy hunting pressure to close encounters with giant rutting bucks, this trip has everything you'd expect from November whitetail hunting in Iowa. Early in the hunt, an almost 200-inch Iowa giant shows up on Matt's trail camera — a reminder of why hunters dream about chasing whitetails here. With his determination fueled, Matt grinds harder than ever, pushing deep into the marsh in search of a  public land giant! And when the moment finally comes… you won't believe what steps out in front of him.

Today on the show, Virginia mountain hunter Ralph Barton breaks down his early-season bowhunting strategy in the big woods. Ralph shares how he scouts for productive acorn trees, pinpoints bedding areas, and uses persistence to get deer into bow range in some of the toughest terrain in the eastern US. From reading feed trees to adjusting stands by just a few yards, his approach shows how to consistently find deer in low-density mountain country consistently.

What if the secret to hitting your business goals was the same as hitting a target in the wild with a bow? In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I break down what I call The Five P's of Bow Hunting and Business—a framework that helps you not only hunt smarter but also build and run your business with more alignment, patience, and resilience. These aren't just hunting stories (though I've got a few wild ones). They're lessons you can actually apply to your entrepreneurial journey so you can keep crushing it without burning out.Here are a few key takeaways from this episode:Preparation is everything. Success—whether it's a clean shot or a business launch—starts way before game day. Get your systems, strategy, and mindset locked in.Performance is what counts. When the opportunity shows up, you have to execute. No second-guessing. No freezing. Just full presence and precision.Patience is a practice. Both hunting and business require waiting, adjusting, and playing the long game. Success rarely happens overnight.Perseverance is non-negotiable. Setbacks are part of the process. The entrepreneurs (and hunters) who win are the ones who keep showing up, day after day.Payoff makes it worth it. That big win—whether it's putting organic meat on the table or closing a huge client deal—tastes sweeter because of the grind it took to get there.This conversation is about more than elk hunting. It's about systematically harmonizing your ambition and your well-being so you can truly Happy Hustle a life you're stoked about—full of passion, purpose, and positive impact.Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.

In this episode of Becoming a Bowhunter, Matty sits down with Tom Clum Sr., a lifelong bowhunter and founder of RMS Gear, to talk all things traditional archery, effective shot execution, and making clean kills with a trad bow. Tom has coached hundreds of archers through form issues, target panic, and inconsistent results. This episode cuts through the noise and gets straight to the stuff that actually makes you a better archer and bowhunter. They talk about how to practice with purpose, what really matters in high-pressure moments, and how Tom uses coaching and failure as a platform for growth. Whether you shoot compound, trad, or something in between, you'll walk away from this one with plenty to chew on. Podcast Topic:  Bio-mechanics for repeatable and accurate shots with a trad bowThe role of the central nervous system in executing a shot you can trustWhy most hunters fail when the moment counts—and how to fix itCoaching through target panic, collapsing, and anticipationHow shot mechanics translate to real-world hunting scenariosWhy form is more than just physicalHow to train your subconscious for better consistencyPlus some hunting stories from Tom  Follow Tom:  Instagram: @tom_clum_sr Website: www.rmsgear.com  Follow Becoming a Bowhunter: Instagram: @becomingabowhunter.podcast Hosted by: @mattyafter Episode Sponsors: Dog and Gun Coffee – Fuel your hunt with premium coffee.

Send us a textHave you ever wondered why you can hit a bullseye one day and miss the target entirely the next? In this eye-opening conversation with Neil Hignight of 501 Archery in Hot Springs, we dive deep into the psychological aspects of archery that even experienced shooters struggle to master.Neil's journey from barbershop owner to professional bow technician began after a neck injury forced him to reconsider his career path. What started as casual help at a local bow shop evolved into a full-time passion for helping others improve their archery skills. "I love to serve people," Neil explains. "I want to see somebody needing help because I want to help them—and it's not for my own gratification."The conversation takes a fascinating turn when Neil reveals the concept of "target panic"—a psychological phenomenon affecting virtually all archers. With remarkable clarity, he explains how modern technology has paradoxically made some aspects of archery more challenging by disconnecting shooters from fundamental techniques. "We've forgotten the fundamentals," Neil says. "Technology's got so advanced... everybody's shooting their bow instead of letting their bow shoot."Beyond equipment talk, Neil shares invaluable insights about the mental discipline required for archery success. His passion for teaching through the National Archery in the Schools Program (NASP) demonstrates how archery builds confidence and self-reliance in young people—qualities increasingly important in our technology-dominated world.Whether you're a seasoned bow hunter or just curious about the sport, Neil's practical wisdom will transform how you think about archery. His memorable advice to "let your bow shoot instead of trying to shoot your bow" might just be the key to breaking through your performance plateau. Ready to overcome your target panic? Listen now and discover the mental game that separates good archers from great ones.GUEST WEBSITE: https://www.facebook.com/p/501-ARchery-61572293309863/OUR WEBSITE/OTC MERCH: https://offtheclockwithbscott.comHAVOC GEAR SHOP: https://havocnation.comHAVOC BOATS WEBSITE: https://havocboats.comHAVOC DEALERS: https://havocboats.com/dealers/WREAKIN' HAVOC CREW WEBSITE: https://wreakinhavoccrew.comSOCIAL LINKSTruth Social: https://truthsocial.com/@OffTheClockwithBScottFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Off-The-Clock-With-B-Scott/61557737220814/Twitter (X): https://twitter.com/OTCwithBScottInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/offtheclockwithbscott/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwu6_wWcXDoBzhpHv4YgZGQRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-5644782Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2g76hRDp9d609LETevSH2U?si=0ba23ae282c94e88&nd=1&dlsi=d9f84d7699b84724Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/off-the-clock-with-b-scott/id1734265760

Follow along as Paul rattles, calls, and grinds it out in tough conditions to make the most of his last deer tag of the season.

In this episode of Becoming a Bowhunter, Matty is joined by Brian Johnson, also known as The Anatomy Hunter, for a deep dive into why understanding the anatomy of your target species can make or break your hunt. Brian's mission is simple: to help bowhunters take more ethical, effective shots by knowing exactly where to aim. From deer to elk, pigs to predators, we unpack how a little anatomical knowledge can dramatically improve your odds in the field. We cover everything from broadside and quartering shot placement to 3D targets, bone structure, and why visualising the vitals before you draw is critical. Whether you're new to bowhunting or a seasoned hunter, this conversation will make you think differently about your next shot.

Send us a textThe moment Christina Rafalco describes will resonate with any hunter—that magical time when the sun begins to set, the woods are bathed in golden light, and an extraordinary stillness descends. "Unless you're in that moment experiencing the quiet and how everything just settles down," she explains, "you can't understand it. I could do that every single day of my life."Christina brings refreshing energy to this episode as she shares her journey into bowhunting as a 48-year-old single mom. Her story begins just four years ago when a relationship introduced her to archery, quickly sparking a passion that transcended target shooting. With candid humor, she describes overcoming a severe fear of heights—starting with a modest 10-foot ladder stand before conquering her anxiety to climb 30 feet up. "Now I'm fine with it," she laughs, detailing her evolution from nervous novice to confident hunter.The conversation takes listeners through Christina's hunting adventures across New Jersey's public and private lands. She doesn't shy away from the challenges, from tracking her first deer to having her birthday-gift ladder stand stolen by another hunter. These experiences taught her resilience and the importance of community. When describing the hunting brotherhood that welcomed her, Christina notes how fellow hunters looked out for her on public land: "Nobody would leave until they knew I was back to my vehicle and safe."Her most captivating story recounts harvesting her first buck—a seven-pointer she ultimately commemorated with a tattoo. Listeners will feel the tension as she describes drawing her bow while her heart raced, watching through her peep sight as the buck gradually emerged from behind a tree. The emotional aftermath of that successful heart shot captures why hunting means so much to so many: "I'm standing over him with tears coming down my face because it's just such a moment."Whether you're a seasoned hunter or curious about getting started, Christina's perspective offers valuable insights into hunting strategies, gear choices, and the unique considerations women face in the field. Her advice to other women interested in hunting resonates with authenticity: "Don't be shy. Ask questions. You're not going to learn by not asking."Follow Christina on Instagram @cjr.76 and join our community where we celebrate the challenges, triumphs, and peaceful moments that make hunting such a transformative experience.
