 Mule Deer Recap with Dustin Wittwer   Show Notes:   Dustin Wittwer is the host of the Finding Backcountry Podcast . Dustin's also quite the mule deer hunter and grew up chasing them around as a kid. On his podcast, Dustin's interviewed a ton of qualified hunters, which has helped him put together a roadmap for bettering his own hunting skills. Although he goes after a few elk, sheep, and moose tags, mule deer is Dustin's sweet spot.   Dustin shares how he approaches his whole mule deer season, starting from the beginning of the year. He looks forward to all the planning and scheming that goes into getting tags and scoring points, and maybe even likes it more than the actual hunting. Dustin starts planning early, and his advice is to identify exactly what you want to go after and try to stay as close to home as possible so you're able to really understand an area and revisit it.   We get into the best times to kill a high-country mule deer as well as the worst. Dustin also shares his approach to hunting out of state, reverse scouting tips, and a few ways hunters can think outside the box for a more successful hunt.  What's Inside: Dustin's approach to planning for mule deer season How Dustin plans and tackles out of state hunts Reverse scouting tips and tricks   Mentioned in this episode Days In The Wild Podcast Phoenix Shooting Bags save 20% with code johnstallone Howl for Wildlife: https://www.howlforwildlife.org/ Dustin Wittwer on Instagram Finding Backcountry Podcast   Short Description: Dustin Wittwer is the host of the Finding Backcountry Podcast ..

On Today's Rokcast episode, Robby joins Dustin “The King of Energy Drinks” Wittwer of the Finding Backcountry podcast. Dustin is passionate about helping mule deer and is willing to consider all sides of the issues.  Although they don't always agree, they each learn from these discussions and are better stewards of our mule deer resource. Today, they're discussing the changes that the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources is proposing for equipment restrictions, creating mule deer study units, and more. Utah is on the forefront of trying to bring a balance to the wants of the mule deer hunting public, from the family who's happy with any deer on the game pole to the most selective big buck hunters. It can be a difficult and complicated process but everyone who is interested in helping mule deer should participate. The public, both Utah residents and non-residents, can comment on these proposals on the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources website on the public comments webpage here https://wildlife.utah.gov/feedback.html You can address your comments to any of the 5 Utah Regions or directly to the Utah Wildlife board. So be a good deer hunter by keeping an open mind, listening to today's episode, and giving Utah your feedback before the Utah Wildlife Board votes on the proposals on Tuesday November 28th.

Big Mule Buck Behavior with Dustin Wittwer   Show Notes:  It's one thing to read about stuff in a book or hear about it in a podcast. It's a real “ah hah” moment when you see it happen in real life. Little details like that, the ones that you only learn from experience, can really make a difference on a hunt.   Mule deer bucks are smart. Dustin had always read about big bucks circling back on their own tracks, but in 2019, he saw it firsthand. He was watching a group of bucks when another hunter arrived to go after the same group, and when the wind gave the other hunter away. As the bucks moved around the side of the peak, the largest buck stopped. The buck did a 180 turn, went back along his own tracks, and bedded down in such a way so that he could watch his back trail. If the hunter had decided to try and follow, that buck would have seen him instantly and bolted.   The trick is not to follow a spooked buck, but to circle around the other way. Dustin's brother was able to turn this knowledge into success on a past hunt by circling around the peak the other way. He came up behind the buck, who had already bedded down and was focused the opposite way, and took him with a bow.    “Watching those big bucks, and trying to play chess instead of checkers, that's what I really learned. Thinking about the mountainside, thinking about which way the buck is going to go.”   Firsthand lessons are always the best, and that means getting out there and hunting. And it means sticking with it if you don't succeed right away. Dustin and his brother learned that on a 7 day hunt. Sometimes, all you need is one more good stalk to walk away with a beautiful buck. Most of my success happens in the last day or two that I have scheduled, so don't give up early.   Hunting over and over within the same unit is a great way to learn the area. You'll learn the terrain and the habits of the animals. You can find out the best feeding spots and bedding areas. Even if you kill the animals that use those spots, nature will fill that void back in, and you can return and use that knowledge again and again.    “There's always something to chase. There's no way someone can tell you exactly how to do it.” You can study and discuss hunting and deer all day, but there's always a new experience out there to learn from.    What's Inside: Dustin shares stories and lessons learned from years of hunting. How to circle around a big buck and catch him unaware. Stick with it to succeed. Don't give up early. Hunt the same area repeatedly to learn the terrain and behavior of the animals.
