In this episode I'm with Mark Olis of Moultrie Game Cameras and we're talking nuances of effective trail camera use, and also the uncertain future they have as they are getting more and more technical including the use of AI now, and have been already banned in several states. What is the real future of this game-changing scouting tool many of us rely heavily on? Here are the top things to look for during this High IQ episode:* What are the biggest myths and mistakes of trail camera use that Mark sees on a regular basis?* What are his solutions for fooling camera-shy deer and cameras that eat batteries for breakfast?* How can you use an app to help you track down a particular buck and determine the when and where to hunt him?* Why have trail cameras been banned in his opinion, and what does he say about them being an “unfair advantage” as some claim? * Where does this tech go from here, and how has Pope & Young changed their stance on cameras?* How can you utilize trail cameras and data particular to your area and the time of season?And more!MENTIONED IN THE SHOW:• Moultrie Cameras:  https://www.moultrie.com/products/cameras • Deer IQ ADVANCED WHITETAIL WORKSHOP SIGNUP HERE : https://deeriq.com/deeriq-whitetail-workshop/ DEER IQ Services:  • The Deer IQ Aptitude TEST & Consultation HERE: https://deeriq.com/full-assessment/  • Get a Land Plan HERE: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfEBSw2DrrvyYBr_qzl3OxagG2PJLgL7DotkYxCYltPWr8sUg/viewform • Other Services - coaching or a public land hunting analysis, visit HERE: https://deeriq.com/services/   More from 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/  Year Theme: The Art of HuntingSeries: Land & Food StrategiesEpisode # 93Guest: Host Adam Lewis, Mark OlisIQ ranking - 5 (Intermediate)

In this episode of the Deer IQ podcast I'm with a north woods buck tracker - Nathan Nelson, as we look at how to find and track down big bucks. Now, since he's in the boonies, the reception is bad and there's some bad lip sink going on in a few areas as well as Nathan looking as pixelated as a minecraft character. But, I thought this was a very interesting episode for those who have thought about what it would take to take up a track, find the buck that made it, and kill it - something I've never done quite like this.  And also, even if you don't live in a ideal area to do this, there is great application to everyone in acquiring the skill of tracking, and how it can make us better hunters. So here are the top things to look for during this episode:• Exactly where should you start when trying to track down a big buck - what is the key first step?• What does Nathan look for in a track that tells him to commit to it, or not?• As you track, what sign are you looking for to tell you if you should speed up, or slow down in your pursuit?• What is the best terrain and conditions for tracking and getting on a mature buck?• What type of gear is best suited for doing this - he goes through his list?• What should you do when you lose a track, and when should you give up?• And what is the mental game involved in this type of hunting, and how can you win it to help seal the deal?  And more!MENTIONED IN THE SHOW:• Nathan's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChqJd7zw7K7PZ6r_z2rcerA • Deer IQ ADVANCED WHITETAIL WORKSHOP SIGNUP HERE : https://deeriq.com/deeriq-whitetail-workshop/ DEER IQ Services:  • The Deer IQ Aptitude TEST & Consultation HERE: https://deeriq.com/full-assessment/  • Get a Land Plan HERE: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfEBSw2DrrvyYBr_qzl3OxagG2PJLgL7DotkYxCYltPWr8sUg/viewform • Other Services - coaching or a public land hunting analysis, visit HERE: https://deeriq.com/services/   More from 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/  Year Theme: The Art of HuntingSeries: Land & Food StrategiesEpisode # 92Guest: Host Adam Lewis, Nathan NelsonIQ ranking - 5 (Intermediate)

In this High IQ Topics podcast I'm looking at 6 things I'm doing right now, to up my odds at taking a good buck in the fall. The reality is that NOW (spring/summer) is when success happens, fall is just execution. And if you wait to prepare these very important things until fall, its too late. In this episode I cover:1. Holes you need to fill, patch, and repair to have a solid foundation to hit the woods (I'll explain) .2. Something you MUST REMOVE at all costs before fall comes.3. How I'm preemptively fixing mistakes, and what.4. One thing I continually think you MUST accumulate and inventory.5. 4 things to PLAN for success and not stagnate.6.

In this episode of the Deer IQ Podcast we are in a new series - the Art of Hunting. We will delve into some very interesting topics,  from tracking down bucks, to the debate and high iq strategy of trail camera use, to the fine points of broad head selection, and to what it's like going tech-naked for a whole season.  In this episode I'm back with famous writer Richard P. Smith talking about tracking bucks, and in particular wounded bucks - which we've all dealt with at some point and probably will in the future. Here are the top things to look for during this episode on tracking wounded bucks:• Why don't many hunters track deer anymore as a hunting technique as historically was the norm - why has this art been lost?• What should you do after killing a deer, that is a huge learning opportunity that most miss out on completely. • What are key indicators of good vs. bad hits - and an important one that most hunters totally overlook?• What are the keys to tracking gutshot deer and determining the proper wait time, so you don't make critical errors and ruin your chances of recovery?• When should you call in a tracking dog, and what is the dark side of doing this - that may make you really think before calling one in?• And how can other animals (not dogs) help you find a wounded deer when all else fails?MENTIONED IN THE SHOW:• Deer IQ ADVANCED WHITETAIL WORKSHOP SIGNUP HERE : https://deeriq.com/deeriq-whitetail-workshop/ • Previous episode with Richard - https://youtu.be/nD4-me4Y_4A • Get Richard's Books: https://richardpsmith.com/ More from 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/ • Get a Land Plan HERE: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfEBSw2DrrvyYBr_qzl3OxagG2PJLgL7DotkYxCYltPWr8sUg/viewform Year Theme: To consistently take the top deer where you huntSeries: The Art of HuntingEpisode # 90Guest: Host Adam Lewis, Richard P.

In this episode of the Deer IQ Podcast I'm with Rich Chrzan of Killer Food Plots for part 2 of our talk, getting further into some details of how to properly setup food plots for optimum success, and some bigger picture ideas with how they should fit in your whole hunting strategy on your land. Here are the top things to look for during this episode:• What are Rich's thoughts on planting 1 food plot for the entire year that is a broad mix vs. planting both spring and fall plots that are very different?• How do you know the best timing for putting in plots based on your area so you don't miss the optimal growing window?• What big picture strategies should you think about when putting in plots - related to your entire land and hunting strategy?.• What are our thoughts about morning vs. evening hunts in relation food plots?• What is the difference between destination and kill plots according to Rich, and where should these be put on your property so they work for, not against you?• What is a potential solution to EHD - one that I had never heard of and that could be a literal life-saver for your deer herd? MENTIONED IN THE SHOW:• Deer IQ ADVANCED WHITETAIL WORKSHOP SIGNUP HERE : https://deeriq.com/deeriq-whitetail-workshop/ • Land Management STARTER KIT HERE: https://deeriq.com/land-management-starter-kit/ • Killer Food Plots: https://killerfoodplots.com/ • Get a Land Plan HERE: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfEBSw2DrrvyYBr_qzl3OxagG2PJLgL7DotkYxCYltPWr8sUg/viewform Year Theme: To consistently take the top deer where you huntSeries: Land & Food StrategiesEpisode # 89Guest: Host Adam Lewis, Rich ChrzanIQ ranking - 5 (Intermediate)DEER IQ Services:  • The PAID Deer IQ Aptitude TEST & Consultation HERE: https://deeriq.com/full-assessment/  • For interest in a our Advanced Whitetail Workshop: https://deeriq.com/deeriq-whitetail-workshop/  • Other Services - land and hunting plans for your private land,  or a public land hunting analysis, visit HERE: https://deeriq.com/services/    More from 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/

In this episode of the Deer IQ podcast I'm with Neil Hauger who is a land man, he specializes in finding hunting properties, and making them not only good for hunting, but also very profitable. This episode will resonate with anyone that has thought about buying their own hunting land, but maybe isn't sure if they can afford that, and also for people curious about how to make their land potentially worth much more to sell. Here are the top things to look for during this episode:• How does Neil say anyone can get into owning land without much money?• Why should you consider looking at hunting land as more of an investment than a hunting property?• What are 5 key things to look for when searching for the perfect hunting investment property?• What is his rule of 3 when it comes to establishing land diversity?• What is a 1031 exchange and how can it be used to get better and better properties without getting hammered by capital gains tax?And more!Year Theme: To consistently take the top deer where you huntSeries: Deer Science Deep DiveEpisode # 86Guest: Host Adam Lewis, Neil HaugerIQ ranking - 5 (Intermediate)• Deer IQ Free Test HERE: https://deeriq.com/deeriqtest/ • Deer IQ ADVANCED WHITETAIL WORKSHOP SIGNUP HERE : https://deeriq.com/deeriq-whitetail-workshop/ • Land Management STARTER KIT HERE: https://deeriq.com/land-management-starter-kit/ DEER IQ Services:  • The PAID Deer IQ Aptitude TEST & Consultation HERE: https://deeriq.com/full-assessment/  • For interest in a our Advanced Whitetail Workshop: https://deeriq.com/deeriq-whitetail-workshop/  • Other Services - land and hunting plans for your private land,  or a public land hunting analysis, visit HERE: https://deeriq.com/services/    More from 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/

In this episode of the Deer IQ podcast we are in our series on land and food strategies - how to best setup your land for whitetail success. In this episode I'm with Kevin Vistisen of the deer hunter podcast for part 2 of our talk - part one is on his podcast (# 359 at the deer hunter podcast https://deerhunterpodcast.libsyn.com/359-the-next-generation-of-whitetail-management ) and we're looking at the macro view of land - potential solutions to deer management issues affecting many states, specifically using the example of Michigan. This is an important talk about land and our use of it that applies to virtually any state on the management level.  And there's a glitchy part of Kevin's audio because he lives in the boonies, so beware of that about 12 minutes in - I think you'll figure it out, you guys are a smart audience.  Here are the top things to look for during this episode:• What does Kevin say the general fix is for hunters taking back control of our natural resources - which have been overtaken by bureaucracy and anti-hunters? • What does Kevin say about the nature of social media in the hunting space and what we need to be very careful about when using it? • What is Kevin's experience on APR's and what are his thoughts on their ability to change a deer herd?• What do I think is the true root issue in states like Michigan, and the true fix that we need to make deer hunting great again?• What are some potential private access solutions for areas that are off-limits for most hunters due to leases and lack of hunting permission.And much more!Year Theme: To consistently take the top deer where you huntSeries: Deer Science Deep DiveEpisode # 85Guest: Host Adam Lewis, Kevin VistisenIQ ranking - 5 (Intermediate) SHOW LINKS: • PART 1 of podcast - Deer Management for the Next Generation pt. 1:  https://deerhunterpodcast.libsyn.com/359-the-next-generation-of-whitetail-management• Deer IQ Free Test HERE: https://deeriq.com/deeriqtest/ • Deer IQ ADVANCED WHITETAIL WORKSHOP SIGNUP HERE : https://deeriq.com/deeriq-whitetail-workshop/ • Land Management STARTER KIT HERE: https://deeriq.com/land-management-starter-kit/ • Kevin's Links - DH3 Scents:  https://dhthree.com/   DEER IQ Services:  • The PAID Deer IQ Aptitude TEST & Consultation HERE: https://deeriq.com/full-assessment/  • For interest in a our Advanced Whitetail Workshop: https://deeriq.com/deeriq-whitetail-workshop/  • Other Services - land and hunting plans for your private land,  or a public land hunting analysis, visit HERE: https://deeriq.com/services/    More from 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/

In this episode of the Deer IQ podcast we are in our series on land and food strategies - how to best setup your land for success. In this episode I'm back with Michael Veine, we did a previous episode on public land, and we are discussing how he hunts and finds success on a very challenging hunting property and area. When things are stacked against you, what can you do to still get it done? And because of where Michael is at the video and audio was a challenge to edit, so sorry about some of that but I do think it's a good episode. Ok so here are the top things to look for during this episode.• What is Michael's extensive hunting background, and what makes his area so challenging to hunt?• What does he say about how to determine whether a buck is a “shooter” in these type of areas?• What is Michael's food plot strategy and why does he refuse to hunt certain plots?• What is his strategic approach to hunt his property so he always has fresh spots to hunt?• How much of his property is sanctuary and how does he accomplish this?• How is bird hunting a vital part of his deer hunting strategy?And More!Year Theme: To consistently take the top deer where you huntSeries: Land & Food StrategiesEpisode # 83Guest: Host Adam Lewis, Michael VeineIQ ranking - 1 (Beginner)** Land Management Starter Kit HERE: https://deeriq.com/land-management-starter-kit/ DEER IQ Services:  • The NEW Deer IQ TEST & Consultation HERE: https://deeriq.com/full-assessment/  • For interest in a our Advanced Whitetail Workshop: https://deeriq.com/deeriq-whitetail-workshop/  • Other Services Overview: land and hunting plans for your private land,  or a public land hunting analysis, visit HERE: https://deeriq.com/services/    More from 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/ 

Understand the impact of childhood rejection in adulthood and discover transformative techniques to help you heal and thrive.Childhood rejection and neglect often leave a lasting imprint on our emotional and mental wellbeing and shape how we perceive ourselves and interact with the world as adults.Those who experienced childhood rejection might engage in people-pleasing, perfectionism, or rescuing behaviours in relationships. They may also struggle with trust and self-identity, feeling disconnected from their true selves. This can result in a pattern of seeking validation from others, often in relationships that are imbalanced or unhealthy. The Inner Child also often remains vigilant, constantly seeking evidence to confirm its fears of rejection and unworthiness.In this episode, we delve into the complexities of childhood rejection and explore how it manifests in adulthood, along with some transformative techniques to heal and thrive.With your hosts, David James Lees (ordained Taoist monk, emotional and spiritual health teacher) and Alexandra Lees (mindset and business coach).Discover our online consultations, events and shop:  https://www.wuweiwisdom.comSubscribe to David's FREE Journal: https://davidjameslees.substack.com/Other related teachings on our YouTube channel that will help you:Our INNER CHILD PLAYLIST  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9NQ_PWX4zICGLRS1b7q1HSJhZRash5qqHealing Childhood Trauma https://youtu.be/yBYnJSsHrAw?si=HRkqAXZrpV3ZoXe3How to Heal Repressed Trauma https://youtu.be/nlB6lo41rDE?si=lHr2WOzGmqFwcga2Join our free Wu Wei Wisdom Community Facebook support group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/wuweiwisdomcommunity  If you love our work, you can now make a small donation to help fund the continued production of our weekly teachings by buying us a 'virtual coffee'! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/wuweiwisdom Book an online Golden Thread Process & Inner Child Consultation with David: https://www.wuweiwisdom.com/therapies-for-body-mind/ Follow us on Instagram: @wuweiwisdomSign up to receive a relaxing guided meditation gift, plus our weekly newsletter + offers via email: https://www.wuweiwisdom.com/signup​ -Disclaimer: This podcast and any associated teaching and comments shared are not a substitute for professional therapy, mental health care, crisis support, medical advice, doctor diagnosis, or professional healthcare treatment.

In this episode we're looking at 4 key questions any land owner should ask before they start planting, cutting, or making major moves on their land. This is great for beginners, but if you already have a managed property these are also good things to think about to recalibrate before moving forward with your current plan. I'm joined again by my friend Mark for this discussion who is currently trying to figure a land plan for his family property, which we discuss. Ok so here are the top things to look for during this episode.• What are the 4 questions to be asked in order, and why is answering them honestly so important?• How can you figure the ceiling, or buck potential for your particular hunting land?• How is a vision different than goals, and why is this a key distinction I make?• Why are these 4 things critical to determine before you start cutting, planting, or setting a plan in place?And much more!Year Theme: To consistently take the top deer where you huntSeries: Deer Science Deep DiveEpisode # 82Guest: Host Adam Lewis, Mark KawieckiIQ ranking - 1 (Beginner)** Land Management Starter Kit HERE: https://deeriq.com/land-management-starter-kit/ DEER IQ Services:  • The NEW Deer IQ TEST & Consultation HERE: https://deeriq.com/full-assessment/  • For interest in a our Advanced Whitetail Workshop: https://deeriq.com/deeriq-whitetail-workshop/  • Other Services Overview: land and hunting plans for your private land,  or a public land hunting analysis, visit HERE: https://deeriq.com/services/    More from 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/ 

In this special episode of the Deer IQ podcast we are we are wrapping up our deer science deep dive with this bonus session on Scent Control - how it Actually Works. We'll look at the science & the bias, the facts & fiction, and come to a science-based reasonable conclusion as to if it's actually possible to beat a Deer's nose. So here's the top things to look for during this episode:• What is the known science of the capabilities of whitetail's sense of smell, and what is just assumption and conjecture? • What is the strawman argument when it comes to the debate on being Scent Free?• What do dog tests really reveal about a deer's sense of smell and ability to detect a hunter?• What are 2 reasons just “playing the wind” may not be a good idea?• What is the real standard for scent control, and how is this different than most think?• What are keys to implementing a regimen to beating a whitetail's nose?And a lot more!DEER IQ Services:  • The NEW Deer IQ TEST & Consultation HERE: https://deeriq.com/full-assessment/  • For interest in a our Advanced Whitetail Workshop: https://deeriq.com/deeriq-whitetail-workshop/  • Other Services Overview: land and hunting plans for your private land,  or a public land hunting analysis, visit HERE: https://deeriq.com/services/    More from 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/ 

In this special episode of the Deer IQ podcast we are applying the science of deer vision to  camouflage patterns, and seeing which ones should actually work (based on deer eyes, not human eyes). This is an attempt to quantify and compare patterns. It is by no means perfect, but is a good start and I think you'll find benefit in it, and also some surprises along the way.

In this episode of the Deer IQ podcast we are continuing our series regarding deer science, in a much more nuanced way than last season. We look at specific applications of deer hearing and just how to beat it.. how you may want to start hunting differently because of what the science reveals. I'm joined again by my friend Mark for this discussion, and here are the top things to look for during this High IQ episode about beating the hearing of a whitetail deer:• What are the ways a whitetail hears very differently than a human, and why is this important to fully understand?• How can you figure out how far typical noises you make while hunting really travel?• What does this mean about our critical hunting choices regarding our gear, and what is the RULE I suggest you always follow. • How should you think differently about how you approach your stand or blind, and why do I suggest this? And a lot more!Year Theme: To consistently take the top deer where you huntSeries: Deer Science Deep DiveEpisode # 79Guest: Host Adam Lewis, Mark KawieckiIQ ranking - 5 (Intermediate)Episode with Dr. Karl Miller - VISION : https://youtu.be/bPW61VZXt2g Episode with Dr. Karl Miller - HEARING: https://youtu.be/2js2_WdSrS8 DEER IQ Services:  • The NEW Deer IQ TEST & Consultation HERE: https://deeriq.com/full-assessment/  • For interest in a our Advanced Whitetail Workshop: https://deeriq.com/deeriq-whitetail-workshop/  • Other Services Overview: land and hunting plans for your private land,  or a public land hunting analysis, visit HERE: https://deeriq.com/services/    More from 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/

In this episode of the Deer IQ podcast we are wrapping up our exciting series - Mature Buck Mindsets, and in this episode we're looking at 3 ways a big buck slayer's brain is different than most, and how you can then start to think like, and have the brain of a big buck slayer. And we are going to dig into some neuro science that I don't think has ever been applied to deer hunting, so you'll want to take good notes. And stay to the end because I have 2 giveaways for you that will give you a huge step up to having that brain and much more consistent success on big deer. So, here are the top things to look for during this episode:• Regarding brain science, where is all the decision making made in the brain?• What is automaticity, and how is it both a good and bad thing when it comes to deer hunting.• What is the basal ganglia's role in our behaviors, and how must we leverage this to be a more consistent hunter?• What are the 3 ways big buck slayers use their brain differently that we can leverage to change our brain, and change our results. And there's a lot more in there, so lets get to it and UP your Deer IQ!Year Theme: To consistently take the top deer where you huntSeries: Mature Buck MindsetsEpisode # 77Guest: Host Adam LewisIQ ranking - 10 (Advanced)DEER IQ Services:  • The NEW Deer IQ TEST & Consultation HERE: https://deeriq.com/full-assessment/ • For interest in our NEW Whitetail Workshop see HERE: https://deeriq.com/deeriq-whitetail-workshop/ • Other Services including our Coached Small Group, land and hunting plans for your private land,  or a public land hunting analysis, visit HERE: https://deeriq.com/services/  More from 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/ 

In this episode of the Deer IQ podcast I'm joined by a legend in the field of deer research, John Ozoga. You've probably read his articles on whitetail science in major magazines, and we discuss his research of buck behavior, and the science of what he calls “buck societies”.

Ok so, here are the top things to look for during this episode.• What was so disappointing about my previous season, 2015, and what can we learn from that failure?• How did the “first sit rule” or strategic strike I talk about so much about, come into play with several bucks in this story?• How much time passed between getting high value intel about this particular buck, and me getting the shot?• What were key moments and decisions I made when it came to tracking and retrieving this buck that were pivotal in finding him?• What happened when 2 other hunters who pursued this deer for 3 years found out about his demise, and the big twist here - what well known person did this wind up being?Year Theme: To consistently take the top deer where you huntSeries: So there I was..Episode # 64Guest: Host Adam LewisIQ ranking - 5 (intermediate)DEER IQ Services:  • The NEW Deer IQ TEST & Consultation HERE: https://deeriq.com/full-assessment/ • For interest in a Whitetail Workshop, our Coached Small Group, land and hunting plans for your private land,  or a public land hunting analysis, visit HERE: https://deeriq.com/services/  More from DEER IQ: FOUNDATIONS Episode Mentioned: https://youtu.be/NBWdFHE92lg 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/

Don't let the routine part scare you – I HATE routines because routines = the same thing over & over again forever on end. That isn't true.

Our favorite sex therapist is back and this time we are challenging the assumption that sexual desire dies with long term relationships. Felica interviews Dr. Finlayson-Fife and they dive into the challenges we face to "keep the fire alive".Esther Perel said " Eroticism is the antithesis to everything a healthy family life needs, ritual, routine and knowing. Safety and security. Eroticism is adventure" , in this episode we tease out the nuance in this and discover what eroticism TRULY means. Hint ** it isn't all about sex/ desire.We also touch on the fact that families are more child centered than ever with higher expectations for couples. All responsibility often falls on parents, not community, institutions or society. We set up play dates and take pictures of and talk about and invest in our kids yet our personal and couple relationships are left to shrivel up. How can we do better?We tackle all this and more! Don't miss this chance to bring more erotic energy into your life.  Links We Mentioned  https://www.goodinside.com/podcast/4759/sex-after-kids-tell-me-more-esther-perel/ Related Episodes How to Own Your Own Desires with Dr.Finlayson Fife  Discovering Self within Our Sexuality & Overcoming Betrayal  Thank you for the kind reviews!
