It's time to rethink everything you thought you knew about western hunting — from deer behavior to elk scouting strategies, and even the realities of chasing big game at high altitude. Aaron Berg, a seasoned hunter who's hunted across Montana, Utah, and Nebraska, pulls back the curtain on what truly works in the rugged terrain out west—and what pitfalls will leave you empty-handed. Imagine bagging your first mule deer in Nebraska after just a few days, or experiencing the adrenaline of an elk charge at nine yards in Utah—Aaron shares the one thing he learned from each trip that transformed his approach. You'll discover how landscape features like thickets and water sources influence animal movements and what real scouting looks like in the unpredictable western environment. We break down practical tactics: how to read satellite imagery, the critical importance of good physical prep, and why overpacking can make or break a hunt. Aaron reveals the truth about the costly gear needed for drone recovery and the lessons he learned about resilience—like how to handle weeks of rain, wet gear, and busted sleep in the mountains. This episode is perfect for hunters ready to level up: if you want to understand the kind of preparation, strategy, and mindset needed to succeed in the rugged west, you can't afford to miss this. Whether you're planning your first trip or chasing your tenth, Aaron's insights will give you a fresh perspective—and up your odds of bringing home that trophy.Tune in now and start hunting smarter, not harder. Your next big adventure—and animal encounter—awaits. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

There's a particular kind of restlessness that hits a hunter in the off-season. It's not impatience exactly. It's more like a low hum in the background of everything you do. You're mowing the lawn, you're half-present at dinner, but somewhere in the back of your mind you're replaying last season's misses and mentally walking new ground you haven't set foot on yet. That's where K.C. and I found ourselves in this episode, and honestly, it's where I think most serious hunters live from February through August. We got into the anticipation of a new season and that electric feeling of scouting fresh country you've never hunted before. There's something almost spiritual about standing in a new piece of woods with a stick bow on your shoulder and nothing but questions in front of you. Ground hunting with a trad setup doesn't leave you a lot of margin. It demands that you close the distance in a way that most hunters never have to think about, and that changes everything. How you move, how you think, how you manage the inevitable doubt that creeps in when the woods go quiet. Because here's what K.C. and I kept coming back to: doubt is part of the deal. Despair shows up on long trips. There are mornings you climb out of your sleeping bag wondering why you drove eight hours for this. The hunters who kill consistently aren't the ones who never feel that. They're the ones who've learned to respect the feeling, sit with it, and keep putting one boot in front of the other. We talked about the mental side of all of it. Confidence, visualization, the kind of self-awareness that only comes from time in the field and honest reflection. The best hunters I know treat the mental game the same way an athlete does. You prepare for failure as much as success, and you build systems that hold up when emotion wants to take the wheel. We also got into deer behavior, being in the right place at the right time, and how skills from completely different disciplines can transfer into better hunting. That last part is something I think gets overlooked constantly. If you've ever walked back to the truck empty-handed and wondered what you're missing, this one's for you. Pull it up on the drive to work. It might not give you all the answers, but it'll remind you you're asking the right questions.

This week's episode is for the guys who want to level up their self filming game in the whitetail woods. I sat down with JJ Dukart from The Deer Society to talk all things self filming deer hunts. JJ breaks down the camera gear and equipment he trusts in the field, how he efficiently films hunts completely by himself, and the little details that can turn average footage into a hunt film that actually tells a story. We also get into the B-roll shots every self filmer should be capturing, mistakes guys make when filming their own hunts, and ways to make your footage look more cinematic without overcomplicating it. On top of all that, JJ takes us down memory lane and shares one of his all-time favorite self filmed hunts. If you've ever thought about filming your own hunts, are struggling to make your footage better, or just love good whitetail stories, this episode is packed with useful information and plenty of BS along the way. . . .

Welcome back to the WhitetailDNA Podcast! On today's episode, we are joined by Ethan Stubbs. Ethan has an impressive resume in the hunting industry and has built a life around his passions. We dive into his journey through the hunting industry, getting his start as an intern for Midwest Whitetail and working alongside highly respected names like Jared Mills and Bill Winke, to carving out his own path today. Ethan is a licensed land agent working for a company he started this Spring in northeast Iowa. He shares valuable insight into the realities of leasing versus owning hunting ground, and what it really takes to build a lifestyle that lets you consistently chase your passion for whitetails. We also break down the pros and cons of buying a farm close to home versus investing in a property farther away, along with the key boxes you need to check when shopping for your own piece of ground. The conversation highlights the importance of Timber Stand Improvement (TSI) and how it can completely transform a property's hunting potential. To wrap it all up, Ethan recaps his Kansas hunt, telling the full story behind the buck he wrapped his tag on.

This week I sit down with Josh Arbogast in the Chilli Buck Lounge for a face-to-face conversation that every Michigan deer hunter needs to hear. Josh has been leading the charge when it comes to pushing for real change in Michigan's deer herd, and the timing of this episode couldn't be more important. On April 8th, the Michigan NRC will be holding a meeting and the goal is simple: pack the room with as many Michigan deer hunters as possible and make our voices heard. We break down everything on the table right now—what a potential one-buck rule could look like statewide, moving gun season back, returning muzzleloader season to its original weapon restrictions, and going back to county-wide DMU doe harvest. We also dive into the idea of APR regulations and how shifting and shortening gun season could have a major impact on the future of Michigan whitetails. Josh brings a ton of data and statistics to this conversation numbers that are honestly pretty staggering and will make you think, no matter where you stand on these changes. Whether you're for it, against it, or somewhere in the middle, this is a conversation you need to hear. More importantly, it's one you need to act on. Show up. Be heard. The future of Michigan deer hunting depends on it. . . .

Baiting is one of the biggest hot-button issues in hunting. Regardless of species, everyone has an opinion. This is especially true for deer hunting, where antler inches can make toddlers out of grown men. Opponents of baiting often raise ethical or moral questions about the tactic itself and the risk of potential disease exposure involved with congregated deer herds. Those in favor of baiting compare it to food plots or similar strategies for...

On this episode of The Wisconsin Sportsman, Pierce is joined by Zach Haas of Creek Bottom Land Management to talk all about how whitetails use water! Zach is a former aquatic biologist and lifelong deer hunter who combined his knowledge and passion into Creek Bottom Land Management over a decade ago. Zach shares the types of water that deer prefer and explains why not all water is created equal in the eyes of a whitetail. Then the guys discuss how to implement water on your property, or leverage an existing water hole if you're a public land hunter. All that and more in this week's episode!

I stopped when I noticed two does feeding about 300 yards off, and whispered to my wife that I was going to practice aiming. Moments later, a few more deer showed up. As I watched them through the scope, a big buck appeared, and my heart raced full-throttle. The buck nosed through the does, and twice when he stood still, I started to squeeze the trigger. However, he started moving again, and I anxiously waited for the right opportunity. He...

Kyle Barefield, Caleb Wallace and Todd "Rev" Wooden sit down and discuss some previous shots from their hunting season and go through different scenarios of where the deer is hit and what you should do from there as a hunter to recover the animal. 

What actually makes great deer habitat inside a timber stand? In this episode of the Design. Build. Hunt. podcast, we break down how forests naturally grow—and why doing nothing often leads to poor whitetail habitat. From old-field succession to closed-canopy hardwoods, we explain what happens over decades as sunlight disappears and understory browse fades. Then we walk through how Timber Stand Improvement (TSI) and Forest Stand Improvement (FSI) can reset your woods, create structure, improve bedding, influence travel corridors, and ultimately transfer sunlight energy into your buck's antlers. We cover: How forests change over time Why mature timber often becomes “park-like” and unproductive Bedding area cutting intensity (and why most landowners don't cut enough) Corridor creation and influencing deer movement Oak release and managing competition Hinge cutting, hack-and-squirt, girdle-and-spray When to cut—and when not to Whether to DIY or hire professionals If you want to turn sunlight into structure, browse, cover, and better hunts, this episode is for you.

This week we are joined by expert outfitter Grant Kuypers of Buck Paradise in Saskatchewan Canada. We've all dreamed about hunting the big bodied, heavy horned whitetails that are produced in the Great White North. From long quiet days on the stand, hearing wolves howl, to enduring freezing temperatures and finally seeing a buck larger than you have ever imagined,  Canada consistently produces giants. Why? How? What could we learn? How and when do they hunt? How can these deer survive the harsh winters? Grant explains it all. Listen, Learn and Enjoy. Send a text message to the show!

Two years ago, I was ready to throw hands at the next person to tell me to go mobile. I had only recently ditched ladder stands for climbing stands, which I considered mobile enough. The last thing I wanted to do was learn a new hunting system. I put up a brave fight against peer pressure, but ultimately caved. I'm in my second season of stacking up deer from saddles and ultralight hang-on stands while my climbing stands collect dust. I hate to...

In this episode, Larry Weishuhn sits down in the wilds of West Texas with Jeff Johnston of the NRA and American Hunter. Recorded on a sprawling 40,000-acre cattle ranch near the Mexican border, the two discuss the unique challenges of hunting the "fan-tailed" Carmen Mountain Whitetail in the high desert. Larry and Jeff swap stories about the rugged terrain, the necessity of quality optics, and the diverse wildlife of the Chihuahuan Desert. The conversation then turns to a passionate discussion about the vital importance of the Second Amendment, the role of the NRA, and why unity among gun owners is critical for the future of the United States. [00:00] Intro & Sponsors: Larry introduces the show from the high-elevation desert of West Texas. [02:00] The Landscape: Discussing the "spine-filled" vegetation and diverse wildlife of the Chihuahuan Desert (Javelina, Mule Deer, Elk, Black Bear, and Quail). [04:15] The Carmen Mountain Whitetail: Larry explains the biology of this unique subspecies—smaller than a Coues deer but with a tail the size of a standard whitetail. [06:30] Hunting Stories: Jeff recounts his successful hunt and Larry jokes about "double drop tines." Mentions of Fred Eichler's success in camp. [09:45] Tactics & Gear: The importance of "glassing" in vast country. Discussion on optics (Stealth Vision), rifles, and the necessity of flat-shooting calibers (.270, 7x57, 6.5) and accurate ammo (Hornady). [14:20] The Second Amendment: A serious pivot to the state of gun rights. Larry emphasizes why the 2nd Amendment is the backbone of American freedom. [16:00] The NRA's Role: Why the NRA remains the strongest lobbying organization due to its membership base, not just money. [18:30] Call to Action: Larry urges listeners to write handwritten letters to legislators and maintain membership in gun rights organizations. [21:00] What's Next: Larry discusses his upcoming hunts in Oklahoma and Texas. "Everything here, for the most part, has got spines, stickers... if you look at our hands, you can probably see all the scratches." — Larry Weishuhn "To me, anything that scores 85 or better is one heck of a deer." — Larry Weishuhn on the Carmen Mountain Whitetail "Without the Second Amendment and our ability to own guns, this country will not exist in a relatively short period of time." — Larry Weishuhn This episode is brought to you by: DSC (Dallas Safari Club): Conservation, Education, and Advocacy.

Some people enjoy deer hunting. Brian Murphy built his entire life around it. In this episode, Will Cooper and Josh Dahlke sit down with one of the most influential figures in modern deer management to unpack the story of a man whose passion for whitetails turned into a lifelong mission. Brian Murphy—HuntStand's Head Wildlife Biologist and formerly the CEO of QDMA—has spent decades fighting for healthier deer herds, better habitat, and a brighter future for hunters. From childhood fascination to global conservation work, Brian's journey is anything but ordinary. He shares how a single obsession with understanding whitetails pushed him into wildlife biology, led him around the world studying deer species, and eventually put him at the helm of an organization that reshaped how Americans think about herd health and ethical hunting. Throughout the conversation, Brian opens up about the early sparks that ignited his love for deer, the scientific mindset that has guided every step of his career, and the pivotal moments that defined his leadership at QDMA. He reflects on decades of research, countless hours in the field, and a lifetime spent trying to understand the animals that shaped his purpose. This episode isn't just about deer management—it's about a man whose dedication helped influence an entire generation of hunters. It's the story of someone who devoted everything to understanding, protecting, and elevating the whitetail experience for everyone who steps into the woods.

Mark Szczepkowski grew up in Wisconsin and hunted whitetails for years. He eventually moved out west and settled in Idaho. His skills in hunting big whitetail deer followed him, and he was pulling big mountain bucks that were making even the Idaho locals jealous. I got to know Mark very well for the past 10 years, and he is one of the most down to earth humans you will ever meet. He taught me a lot about deer scrapes, tree stand setup, and how to find those MONSTER whitetails that elude other hunters on Public Land. With the rattling and calling techniques and with the techniques Mark has taught me, I have found great success on taking down some big whitetails myself. When we started creating the Stuck N The Rut Master Class Collection, I knew that if we created a Whitetail Course, we needed to get Mark involved.

I spent quite a bit of my career as mostly an outdoor writer, before filming hunts and recording podcasts took over. That early role taught me how to use weasel words like a champion. Actually, it was reader responses that taught me to cover my ass with generalizations. What happens when you write hunting articles, even benign hunting articles you assume won't piss people off, is that you end up pissing people off anyway. So, you start to think...

The logic was pretty simple, really. I figured that the rain would cover up my intrusion, and more importantly, wash away all of my scent. That may have been true, I don't really know.
