As an admitted bass geek, I paid somewhat close attention to the latest Bassmaster Classic, which was held on the Tennessee River earlier this year. A relative newcomer to the scene, Dylan Nutt, took top honors in that prestigious tournament with a three-day bag weighing nearly 67 pounds.

In this episode of the Deer IQ podcast we are getting an inside look at what went on behind the scenes of the recent Michigan deer hunting regulations changes. We discuss:•What really took place to lead us to where we are today with OBR and other major changes.• What actually motivated the DNR and NRC to make an about face and support sweeping regulations changes when they had resisted for decades.• If OBR will actually live to see 2027 and be implemented or if it will potentially be dropped.

Send us Fan Mail Alex Rutledge and Redbone sit down with Chef Corey Freeman — a Le Cordon Bleu-trained chef, apple orchard owner, and passionate hunter on a mission to harvest a wild turkey in all 49 states. Corey shares what it was like cooking at turkey camp alongside Tyler Farr, breaks down his Japanese-inspired wild turkey karaage don, apple cider glazed pork chops, and fire-grilled tomahawk steaks and wagyu. He talks about the pressures of hunting public land, the art of sounding different than every other hunter in the woods, and why slowing down — especially in the woods with his four-year-old daughter — has become his greatest harvest. Plus: a big announcement about turkey camps with Tyler Farr, and a bonus segment with Corey's smoked ricotta quail egg ravioli recipe straight from Italy.1:46 – Show Open & Local News10:01 – Meet Chef Corey Freeman – Hunting Chef Chasing 49 States10:29 – Taher Food Service & Cooking from Scratch in Schools16:35 – Apple Cider Glazed Pork Chop Recipe19:59 – Turkey Camp with Tyler Farr – Karaage Don & Tomahawk Steaks27:26 – Turkey Hunting Tactics & The Chase for 49 States30:08 – Best Hunt of the Spring – Corey's Daughter & Two-State Day33:03 – Turkey Camps with Tyler Farr Announcement39:55 – Bonus Segment – Smoked Ricotta Quail Egg Ravioli RecipeMissouri Hunting Heritage Federation:https://www.mhhf.us/To follow American Roots Outdoors Podcast:https://www.facebook.com/groups/448812356525413To learn more about American Roots Outdoors:https://americanrootsoutdoors.com/https://www.facebook.com/AmericanRootsOutdoors/To follow Alex Rutledge:https://www.facebook.com/americanrootsalex/To follow Wayne Lach:https://www.facebook.com/wayne.lach.5To follow Mike Crase:https://www.facebook.com/mike.crase
A Bay of Plenty-based group is turning a pest problem into a community solution. Hunt for Good is a not-for-profit that culls wild deer, donating the venison and wild game meat to community groups and food banks. It's volunteer run, and helps farmers manage the wild deer population on their land in a sustainable way. It was founded by Jasper Osborne at the end of 2024, and in that time they've culled nearly 2000 wild deer and donated over 16 thousand kilograms of mince to those in need. “A lot of farmers are under a lot of stress ... and if they've got huge number of deer running around their properties, then that stock, they can't have, so that's really profit they can't have,” Osborne told Jack Tame. “If we can help them by eliminating some of the issues for them, and also turning it into a food source for the community, then it's a double win."

Send us Fan MailAlex Rutledge and Redbone welcome Kentucky Headhunters co-founder Richard Young straight from a tomato plant run in Glasgow, Kentucky. Richard delivers a masterclass in Southern storytelling — from brother Fred's midnight tractor rides and his collection of 50 antique machines with only 4 batteries, to the band's history-making leap from a Kentucky holler to Sweden Rock Festival (opening three slots before Queen) and sold-out UK arena runs alongside Blackstone Cherry. We also get into turkey hunting on the creek, a surprise bear sighting, and cousin Johnny's electric-bike stealth hunting strategy. After Richard heads off for tomato plants, Alex breaks down a monster spring turkey season — 29 gobblers called in across five states — plus a deep dive into Missouri's #2 national turkey harvest ranking.

In this episode of Bowhunt or Die, Tim and Troy head to northwest Illinois with just one evening to scout and one morning to hunt. After using trail camera intel and a sunset observation to pinpoint a gobbler's movements, the plan comes together exactly as drawn up when a big tom walks into range on the final day of the Illinois turkey season. But that's only half the story. We also rewind to youth season, where Drake battles nerves, overcomes his fear of the shotgun, and makes a perfect shot on his turkey with Dad right by his side. It's a special hunt filled with family, encouragement, and a memory they'll never forget.
In this episode of the Deer IQ podcast we are joined by a food plot seed tester, someone that's been a farmer and in the food plot seed space for decades, and we look at the mistakes many plotters make, the most overrated and underrated plot seeds and just what deer would tell us about our plots if they could to take them from blah to what they crave. If you sometimes struggle with figuring out just what to plant, or getting your plots to flourish in a wide variety of locations or soil conditions, we cover all that and more in this episode.• Get a Smart Land & Hunting Plan HERE: https://deeriq.com/land-and-hunting-plans/• Take the Deer IQ Test 360 HERE: https://deeriq.com/full-assessment/______________________________________________** Season 3 Quiz: https://deeriq.com/season-3-quiz/ __________________________________________GENERAL INFO about ALL Deer IQ Resources HERE: https://deeriq.com/services/ 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 # 136Guest: Host Adam Lewis, Brian HaynesIQ ranking - 5

From recruitment and access challenges to the cultural pressures facing the hunting community, Skip doesn't shy away from the hard questions.The episode also tackles the very real threats bearing down on Michigan's deer herds. Habitat loss, predator pressure, disease concerns, and changing land use patterns are all part of the picture — and Skip offers his perspective on how hunters, wildlife managers, and landowners can work together to protect what we've got.Whether you're a lifelong Michigan deer hunter or just starting out, this is the kind of conversation that matters beyond the treestand.For more information on what Skip is doing in Iowa, check out his website: https://iowawhitetail.com/
(May 19, 2026) There are new safety protocols in place this year for assistant forest rangers after the DEC lost track of one who was later found dead in the wilderness; State officials are proposing a fall hunting season in Saratoga Spa State Park as deer populations there are rising beyond sustainable levels; and astronomer Aileen O'Donoghue guides us through what to look for when the sun goes down.
Week two of Wisconsin turkey season turns into an absolute grind. Rainy mornings, silent gobblers, pressured birds, blown opportunities, and long sits in the blind had us questioning everything... until a subtle move finally paid off. After struggling on heavily pressured birds the hunt shifts north to Chippewa County where the gobblers barely make a sound. With cold mornings, frosty ridges, and “deer hunting for turkeys” tactics, patience finally leads to an unforgettable encounter.
On episode 32, host Steven Crawford is joined by fellow Christian and Michigan Outdoorsman Bobby Roop. During the first half of the episode, Steven and Bobby dive into The Book of Galatians; specifically chapter 2, verse 16. After spending time in scripture, Bobby and Steven tackle the topic that seemingly every Michigan Deer Hunter has on his or her mind - the upcoming vote the NRC is making the second week of May to decide whether or not Michigan is going to a One Buck Rule, along with some other potential regulation changes. This is a longer episode than usual, but nonetheless, a great conversation you won't want to skip!!SUBSCRIBE AND ENJOY!! LIVE FOR JESUS Y'ALL!!

Turkey hunting has a way of humbling you fast… and this hunt was no exception. From blown-over blinds to missed shots and stubborn gobblers that refused to commit, this one felt like a nonstop battle against bad luck. But sometimes the chaos is what makes the payoff even sweeter. In this episode of Bowhunt or Die, Todd teams up with friends for a wild spring turkey hunt packed with close calls, hilarious moments, aggressive gobbling, and a last-minute decision that changes everything. After striking out with the bow and watching opportunities slip away, Todd finally does the “unthinkable” and grabs the shotgun for a run-and-gun hunt through the woods.

The Land Podcast - The Pursuit of Land Ownership and Investing
Welcome to the land podcast, a platform for people looking to educate themselves in the world of land ownership, land investing, staying up to date with current land trends in the Midwest, and hearing from industry experts and professionals. On today's episode, we are back in the studio with Kaleb Greiner. We discuss: Mature bucks thrive in overlooked cover pockets. Small ditch farms can outperform big timber farms. Seclusion from roads matters more than acreage. Waterholes can dramatically improve deer movement. Deer use waterholes year-round, not just in summer. Overdoing CRP can remove critical destination food. Alfalfa outperforms clover during drought conditions. Fencing grain plots is essential in high-density areas. TSI improvements can impact deer movement immediately. Permission hunting still produces giant bucks consistently. And so much more!

Opening morning in Northern Illinois kicks off with sky-high expectations, a perfect setup, and gobblers everywhere… but nothing goes as planned. In this episode of Bowhunt or Die, Kurt dives into one of the most frustrating turkey hunts you'll ever see. Birds are everywhere, circling decoys, hanging up just out of range, and busting him at every move. Hunting without a blind proves just how brutal bowhunting turkeys can be. Then a massive Midwest storm rolls through — bringing tornado warnings, heavy rain, and uncertainty about whether the hunt is even still possible. But when the weather finally breaks, everything changes.

A slow start doesn't mean the hunt is over. After a tough morning filled with close calls, shifting flocks, and blown opportunities, the decision is made to switch gears and go mobile. With birds disappearing and the heat setting in, it's time to cover ground, glass new areas, and take a shot at public land. What follows is a fast-paced spot-and-stalk play—closing the distance, reading terrain, and making a bold move with a fan setup to pull a fired-up tom into range.
Most hunters spend way too much time trying to prove they're right… and not enough time asking what they're missing. This one turns into a solid conversation about staying curious in the deer woods. We get into the idea that the moment you think you've got it figured out is usually when things start going sideways. From hunting pressure and thermals to scouting, trail cams, and even turkey hunting, it all comes back to one thing… You don't know as much as you think you do. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, Nate, Devin, and Trav sit down to break down the latest Michigan Natural Resources Commission (NRC) meeting and the major hunting regulation changes currently being proposed across the state.From the push toward a potential one buck rule, to discussions around antler point restrictions (APR) and the controversial idea of eliminating the rifle line, the guys walk through what was actually said at the meeting—and what it could mean for the future of deer hunting in Michigan.They also dive into their personal takes on each proposal, the potential impact on the Michigan deer herd, and why it's more important than ever for hunters to stay informed and involved in the decision-making process.Whether you're for these changes, against them, or still on the fence, this episode gives you the context you need to understand what's happening—and what could be coming next.
What's up everyone! This week I've got Dillon Deitz back on the podcast—probably for the ninth time, which makes him the most requested guest in the history of Elk Hunt. And by "requested," I mean Dillon requests to be on the podcast. But honestly, I love having this guy on because he's genuinely one of the most passionate people I know about getting new hunters into the game. Dillon just dropped a new film series called "The Rookie Season," and it's honestly one of the coolest projects I've seen in the hunting space in a long time. The premise is simple but powerful: take grown adults with zero hunting background—I'm talking computer geeks, software engineers, people who've never even thought about hunting—and show them that hunting isn't some secret club reserved for people who grew up doing it. The tagline says it all: "Hunting is not for everybody, but it could be for you." Over the course of the series, Dillon takes three complete rookies—people who didn't even know why you have to check the wind—and teaches them everything from hunter safety to field dressing to making ethical long-range shots. And here's the wild part: all three of them filled deer tags within a couple days. We're talking a one-handed Asian kid named Brandon who almost died on a mile packout, a guy named Solomon who made a 600-yard shot on his first hunt and then packed a deer seven miles in five-degree weather (oh, and he forgot his inhaler because he has bad asthma), and a hundred percent disabled veteran named Steven who Dillon rattled in a buck for after scrambling to get him a tag at the last minute. This conversation is part tactics, part philosophy, and part Dillon being sick as a dog but refusing to quit (which is very on-brand). We dive into why deer hunting is the perfect gateway for new hunters, why Dillon is obsessed with mountain whitetails instead of the yard deer everyone else shoots, and his absolute deadly system for rattling in bucks during pre-rut. Spoiler: he's rattled in five or six bucks this year alone, and his method is shockingly simple. We also get into why Dillon believes taking new hunters into the field reminded him of the magic he'd been taking for granted—like watching a moose for the first time through someone else's eyes and realizing how cool this whole thing actually is. It's the same feeling you get when you invite someone to your house for the first time and suddenly notice everything differently. If you're someone who's ever thought about getting into hunting but felt intimidated, or if you've been hunting for years and want to remember why you fell in love with it in the first place, go watch The Rookie Season on Dillon's YouTube channel. And if you're already a hunter, share this episode with someone who's been on the fence about trying it. Dillon's proving that hunting is accessible to anyone willing to put in the work—and that's something we need more of. Sponsors OnX Hunt - If you're not using the new LiDAR feature on OnX yet, you're literally leaving elk on the table. LiDAR cuts through the trees and shows you micro terrain details—benches, contours, hidden pockets—that regular topo maps just can't show. It takes your mapping to the next level and makes you a better hunter. If you're not an Elite member yet, now's the time. Head to onxmaps.com and use code TRO to save 20%. Tricer - Big news from Tricer—they just dropped the updated AD and BC tripods with new TriTech technology. The center post is now a T-post, which makes it smaller diameter, packs down tighter, and a couple inches shorter. Drew is constantly innovating and coming up with new ideas, and this tripod system is cleaner and simpler than ever. If you're on the fence, check out the new setup.

Watching a grown man see a moose for the first time and say "if I don't see another animal this whole trip, this was worth it" reminded Dillon why he fell in love with hunting in the first place. When you teach someone else, you stop just doing and start seeing again. It's like inviting someone to your house—you notice everything differently. Pre-Rut Rattling is Deadlier Than You Think - Dillon has rattled in five or six mountain whitetail bucks this year using a simple system: hunt pre-rut (late October through early November), blind call for about two minutes, then wait 30 minutes and go harder. Bucks are curious but not committed yet, so they'll come check things out within a couple hundred yards. He's had way more success pre-rut than during the rut when bucks already have does locked down. Think of it like calling a bull that doesn't have cows yet versus one that's already got his harem. Deer Hunting is the Perfect Gateway, Not a Lesser Hunt - Dillon deliberately chose deer over elk for his rookie series because it's more accessible—tags are easier, success rates are higher, and the physical demand can be scaled to the person. But that doesn't mean it's easy. Solomon killed his first buck in some of the nastiest country Dillon hunts, made a 600-yard shot, and packed it seven miles. The lesson: don't gatekeep hunting by making people think they have to start with the "hardest" species. Meet people where they are, give them a win, and build from there.
