Many people watch outdoors television and dream about working in the content creation side of the industry. It's a question we're asked about often, so we invited videographer and photographer Dylan Lenz to the podcast to talk about what it takes to be successful in outdoors television and content creation. Dylan's primary project is creating content with Jeff Sturgis of Wildlife Habitat Solutions, but he also does a lot of freelance work for some of the biggest names and companies in the industry such as First Lite and MeatEater. He explains that while he loves what he does, there's a lot of hard work, long nights, and dedication required, which is the side most people don't see when they're watching their favorite hunting shows on television. Dylan also shares with Nick and The Doctor where he got his inspiration, and how he keeps his production schedule full throughout the year by venturing outside the industry. It's an inside look into the fascinating world of outdoors and hunting industry content creation. Also in this episode, our hosts give an update on their ongoing firearms hunting seasons, which includes one tag filled and a lot of frustration otherwise. They talk about the strategies they're using as they try to fill their remaining tags with the season winding down.

Some highly efficient whitetail bucks scouting trips with biologists and habitat design specialist Jeff Sturgis.

Sometimes hunting big ridge systems can seem like a nightmare for swirling winds. But Jeff Sturgis believes if you learn how wind is effected by thermals in hill country you can actually begin to "cheat" the wind and hunt certain spots with multiple winds. In this episode, Jeff and Zach discuss different situations in hill country and how they would play the wind and thermals to their advantage. They discuss a lot from the basics of thermals to specific setup scenarios and what they would expect wind to do in those setups.  Topics Include:  -the basics of thermals in the hills -how to "cheat the wind" -where to setup based off the thermals and how that changes throughout the day Jeff's YouTube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCm2kmwM1LIRjrnbqynMjTzQ VORTEX MERCHANDISE - Save 20% off with the code THP20 - http://bit.ly/2oBxLhp WOODHAVEN TURKEY CALLS -  Use coupon code THP2018 to get 10% off - http://bit.ly/2IagiSe EXODUS TRAIL CAMERAS - Get 10% off w/ code THP10 - http://bit.ly/2FQ2FcR Trophy Ridge Bow Accessories - SAVE 20% OFF w/promo code THP20 - http://bit.ly/2Lol7Yx OnX Maps - Use promo code THP to get 20% off - http://bit.ly/2D6aB44 Follow us on Facebook at The Hunting Public Follow us on Instagram at The Hunting Public

We brought Jeff Sturgis of Whitetail Habitat Solutions back to pick his brain on some next-level whitetail techniques: Namely, using the weather to improve your chances on filling that whitetail tag. Jeff will cover different weather-related factors including how you can utilize weather tech to scout at home, how to use what’s happening in the sky to improve your ground game, and how to avoid pressuring deer. Many hunters follow “quantity over quality,” which Jeff debunks, saying you can harvest bigger bucks by spending more time on your couch. Although it can be hard to exercise the patience to wait for the perfect weather day, your friends, family, and career might be thankful. And who knows? You may even be rewarded with a huge buck. Get ready for another deep dive as Jeff walks us through how to find the best whitetail weather, and how to combine it with deer behavior and your scouting intel to form a weather-smart plan for your next hunt.Already listened, but want the show notes for reference afterwards?

Wow! As you may know, Jeff Sturgis is a Whitetail property guru. Our discussion today does nothing but solidify that notion. What's best is that Jeff is humble, never speaks in absolutes, and is always encouraging. So many "habitat guys" talk so much about "small property management" and refer to 60 or 80 acre parcels. For us, that would be a huge property! Let's face it, being able to afford any land is a huge step. For most of us, 5-40 acres seem so much more feasible and relatable. We called up Jeff to get a more realistic, real world, and rational idea of what a hunter can expect if they seek to purchase a small property like this. It just might surprise you how much positivity Jeff has for pieces land like this. Be sure and follow Whitetail Habitat Solutions on all platforms!

Buckle those brains up, folks. Jeff Sturgis is about to drop more knowledge on whitetail habitat in an hour and a half than you ever thought possible. In addition to understanding the premiere habitat that whitetails prefer, we’ll dive into daytime locations vs nocturnal areas, what these areas are comprised of and how you can create them on the property you hunt if they don’t already exist. Most hunters who manage land for deer hunting tactfully plant food plots to attract deer to strategic ambush locations, but you’ll learn why sometimes doing so can actually have a negative impact on your property. Instead, there’s plenty of other tactics that can be used to create your own deer mecca – including waterholes, hinge-cutting, and more. Jeff has dedicated his entire career to understanding whitetails while hunting them on small properties and public land all across the country, so settle in and sink your teeth into this ultra-dense dish of deer hunting know-how.   As always - let us know if there are any topics you'd like covered on the Vortex Nation podcast by asking us on any one of our social media platforms and using #VortexNationPodcast.
