It's finally here! Rut revival week 1!

Garrett Feik is back to doing what Garrett Feik does- slocking big illinois bucks. Garrett tells how he got permission to hunt this unique farm and the process he put together to kill this specific buck. It's a great story filled with plenty of tips and tricks for mobile deer hunting and using trail cameras, as well as a few good laughs.    Follow Garrett: @gfeik77 Check out the First Gen Hunter Website Follow First Gen Hunter Instagram: @first.gen.hunter Facebook: @first.gen.hunter Follow Alex: @east2westhunts_alex  Follow East2West Hunts: @east2westhunts Follow Caleb: @calebleedrake  Follow Noel: @noelgandy Follow Ryan: @theuplandsocial   Support First Gen Hunter by shopping at the following partners:   East2West Hunts Use promo code: firstgen10 = 10% off any purchase Old Barn Taxidermy Tell Them The First Gen Hunter Podcast Sent You!

We’re back after a weeklong hiatus and we have stories to tell. Lance has been in the deer woods and the duck blind with his son and Noel FINALLY connected on a deer on property that he owns. The boys enjoy reconnecting after some time apart and talk about where Noel spent his last week: Realtree Farms in Georgia! We preview upcoming trips for Lance to Colorado and Missouri and give a brief update about the launch of our miniseries “Rut Revival” which will be coming within the next two weeks.    Be sure to keep tabs with the gang on social media: The Hunting Heritage- Facebook: www.facebook.com/thehuntingheritagepodcast Instagram: @thehuntingheritagepodcast   Noel- Facebook: www.facebook.com/gandyoutdoors Instagram: @noelgandy   Lance- Facebook: www.facebook.com/lance.cornelius.3 Instagram: @no_insta_lance   The First Gen Hunter Facebook: www.facebook.com/first.gen.hunter Instagram: @first.gen.hunter

There's been a lot happening in the hunting community lately. Changes to hunting media, threats of public land sales and exploitation, and the upcoming wave of new tech and new faces in the community. Someone I knew who would have an interesting take on all of this is Sam Lungren. I think you will appreciate the conversation and perspective he shares.    Follow Sam: @samlungrenmedia Check out the First Gen Hunter Website Follow First Gen Hunter Instagram: @first.gen.hunter Facebook: @first.gen.hunter Follow Alex: @east2westhunts_alex  Follow East2West Hunts: @east2westhunts Follow Caleb: @calebleedrake  Follow Noel: @noelgandy Follow Ryan: @theuplandsocial   Support First Gen Hunter by shopping at the following partners:   East2West Hunts Use promo code: firstgen10 = 10% off any purchase Old Barn Taxidermy Tell Them The First Gen Hunter Podcast Sent You!
