This trip he has a few tags to fill, but the superbowl of tags for this trip is Canada moose with a bow! Hope you dig the episode and t...

Today on the podcast I'm joined by my Paul Putera. Paul is one of those public land hunters I like to refer to as quiet killers. We all know a few of these guys.

They're often in our own backyards, hunting highly pressured land, and just kill top end/mature deer for the areas they hunt...and do it consistent...

Today on the podcast I'm joined by my buddy Aaron Hepler. Aaron scouts more than most people I know, and it shows in the number of quality encounters he has.

Aaron was able to find where deer, and this buck in particular, wanted to spend time in daylight once the pressure moved th...
