About this episode
Beau Martonik was joined by Brett Joy of Just Hunt Club at Hunstock in New York, where they gave a live presentation on their three-year trail camera strategy for long-term success.

They discuss their 3-year trail camera strategy, trail camera settings, the importance of scrapes in the big woods, rubs, analyzing data, e-scouting, patterning doe groups, stand placement for hunting the rut, accessing your stand, understanding wind and thermals, and much more!
