Deer Hunt by Big Buck Registry

Dan Bayus is a dreamer. And a do'er.   He'd rather be shown than told.  Dan's theory:  Test the theory first and hyper-focus your shots. It seems Dan does this in and out of the field  and that's probably what makes him a great deer hunter and deadly archer.  Dan grew up in the land of Ohio giants and has recently relocated to Pennsylvania. Not surprisingly, even though he won't share exact locati...

Jared Scheffler is one of the best deer hunters we've ever interviewed. His style, which is mostly spot and stalk, on the ground, public land, long bow hunting, has led to some of the most amazing deer hunting footage we've ever seen.  In 2015 Jared took his largest whitetail to date and as the early deer season get into full gear in most parts of the US, we thought this would be a great story to...

50 years of deer hunting has to account for something. That's half a century of deer hunting knowledge.  How could we resist.  Tim Gauthier has made a profession of taxidermy, hunting and filming wildlife, and now he's jumping to the retail business as he explores the benefits of ozone to the everyday deer hunter.  Yes, Tim has experienced lots over the years and it's true, he used to climb into h...

Sure, having your first baby might change things a bit, but the corn still needs to grow, the fields need to be seeded, the trees need to be cut, and life going any slower than Mach 10 just wouldn't seem normal. That's how Lee and Tiffany, our guests from Episode 050, like it. Tiffany has pulled back just a bit to take care of their son, but both Lee and Tiffany enjoy a fast paced country life.  T...

Michael Waddell never planned to be on television. He was like any other kid growing up in rural town USA.  He hunted small game like every other kid. He fished for bass like every other kid.  In fact, Michael says you we're considered odd if you didn't do these things.   It wasn't until Michael became more passionate than others about certain aspects of the outdoors that he was noticed by the fou...

Dairy farming, mismatched camouflage, deer scouting from a tractor, maple syrup, and electricity from manure aren't exactly the things you'd think of  these days when you think of Nikki Boxler.  But, these items have been a part of Nikki's life for some time, and at her roots, these are the types of things that keep her grounded.  Nikki says she really prefers the simple life and says that social...

It was love at first kill. Jim Kinsey, former US Marine helicopter mechanic, writer, film maker, and hard core deer hunter,  met Jana Waller (one of our favorite predators on the planet) in a ground blind on a turkey hunt.  Does it get any better than that?  Now, Jim spends much of his time behind the camera handling the filming and editing for the show Skull Bound on the Sportsman's Channel.  Jim...

Doug Kostreva doesn't get much sleep.  A typical day starts at 4AM and doesn't end until after 9pm.  Doug doesn't mind though. As a multi-generational farmer, Doug never stops thinking about how to make stuff grow better.  If Doug isn't filling an order for a hunter eager to get their food plot off the ground, he's giving someone advice on how to make the best food plot of their life. As Doug says...

Shane Mahoney is a world renown conservationist, hunter, and outdoorsman.  There may not be another person on the planet that has done more for conservation efforts globally than Shane. Despite his efforts, Shane's opinion about the current state of conservation is not a good.  As he says, you never run out of lessons with conservation and that the animals cannot speak for themselves.  Conservatio...

Vanillian. As a chemical formula, the organic compound looks something like this: C8H8O3. Combine this with an apple and you get something called Vapple. Neophobia: extreme or irrational fear or dislike of anything new, novel, or unfamiliar.  Deer are the world's biggest neophobes if you think about it. And that's exactly what Kelvin Wilcox, deer hunter, creator, and founder of Vapple did. He thou...

Based in Vermont, In Pursuit 365 is comprised of a core group, specifically Jeremy and his hardcore hunting partner from New...

We learn how he uses his predator and hunting and trapping skills to hone his deer and...

Hunting the big mountains of the west is demanding, physically and mentally.  You can travel to the spot, but when the hunt is on, you need to kick into high gear.  On a hunt, Kristy Titus needed that extra gear when it counted most, but couldn't get there. She says, "I was so gassed that I was tasting blood".  She was the overweight non-athlete and  she was out of shape. It wasn't fun.  This self...
