About this episode
The fellas dive into the ever-elusive mastery of deer hunting this week. Things like how experience builds in layers and how you don’t even hear the right lessons until you’ve suffered through enough mistakes to be ready for them. Buck beds, trail cam traps, wind shifts—every misstep is a lesson, whether you learn it the hard way or just listen to someone else’s. They get into the nuances of public vs. private land hunting, how assumptions are the fast track to failure, and why seasoned bucks move at the speed of continental drift when they know they’re being hunted. If you think you’ve got it all figured out, the deer woods will humble you fast. Between scouting talk, plans for Okayest Hunter's annual Foam Fest, and the never-ending pursuit of doing better without drowning in ego, there’s plenty to chew on. The biggest takeaway? No matter how much you learn, there's always another painful lesson waiting for you next hunting season. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
