Drop-Tine Podcast -The official deer management, food plot & habitat podcast

CWD: What's THE REST OF THE STORY? Are you confused about Chronic Wasting Disease or perhaps  you disagree with what you're hearing. There seems to be a plethora of "experts" who aim to "educate" sportsmen about CWD but why haven't we made any traction on CWD in free-range deer herds? It's a fact that deer farmers have gained ground, reducing CWD prevalence but the mainstream media would lead you...

The multitude of the sick shall not make us deny the existence of health (Emerson, 1860). Let's focus on the individual animals that remain healthy, while others struggle. Wildlife that harbor diseases wihtout showing symptoms of being diseased is the epitome of health! The presence of a pathogen IS NOT the same as the presense of the disease.  In nature, the weak die...in society we're always loo...

Do wild turkey poults prefer to forage in food plots managed with regenerative techniques or conventional techniques?  What about old field management?  Jason sits down with MSU graduate student Will Fowler (his first podcast EVER) to discuss Will's ground-breaking research using imprinted wild turkey poults to study foraging ecology in different food plot treatments.  If you manage for wild turke...

Jason talks with Luke Resop, graduate student at Mississippi State University, about updates on his regenerative VS. conventional food plot research.  They also dive into quail and turkey research as Luke shares some teasers about the new turkey foraging research in regenerative food plots.
