Still holding an unfilled buck tag and stressing as each day of November passes you by? Has the rut come and gone without you, and all you have to look forward to are the scraps of the archery season after gun hunters hit the fields and forests in huge volume? NO! It's still sweet November and as Noel and I describe it, some of the BEST days of November are still ahead of us. Keep your head up, hunt hard, and get ready for your luck to change at any moment! That's what this conversation is all about. Noel and Kent talk about deer behavior in the latter part of November, and how to take advantage of their unique habits during this phase of the season. Kent also tells the story of his early muzzleloader buck harvest that had many ups and downs but ended with a filled tag nonetheless.

I love hearing first gen hunter stories. Of course many aspects of these stories have common themes, but they are also quite different in many ways. For Jeff, hunting elk and mule deer out West has been the areas where he has poured much of his hunting time and resources.

The best broadheads Caleb and I have shot have been SEVR mechanical heads.

KC also talks about some of his own hunting experiences making this an excellent listen.

Good hunters are constantly upgrading their tactics each season as they gain new skills and knowledge. One of the more advanced tactics is adjusting to thermal differences that create air drafts and currents which move a hunter's scent in ways that could get him busted by a nearby deer. Greg of Whitetail Partners is an expert at reading and adjusting to thermal changes and he joined the show to share some of his knowledge on this, and other high level deer hunting tactics.

Cooking wild game is one of the best outcomes of hunting and fishing. It's the falling action to a great story that takes on its own form with each time we enter the field. The problem is most people do not understand how to maximize the game meat they harvest. Thankfully some extremely creative culinary experts in the hunting community such as Danielle Prewett have provided us with some great ideas for making the most of the meat we harvest in the field. Her newly released book titled Meateater's Wild + Whole Cookbook is loaded with recipes that match each season of the year.

Deer hunting is the most common thread in the fabric of American hunting culture, and once you've had a good taste of it, it's easy to see why that is. But just as all other enjoyable pursuits have become commercialized so has deer hunting. So much so that sometimes it's simplest components that make it such a great part of the human experience are lost within the market driven perspectives, products, and trends. My good friend Doug Duren joined me to discuss this reality, and provide his insight on the issue.
Topics Include
-Historical view of Deer Hunting
-CWD
-Behind the scenes information from Meateater
-Sharing The Land
-Hunting Access
-Conservation
