Ep. 137 ~ Stands & Srategies

Since both the boys were out of town when they should have been recording we decided to put up a :Best Of" episode. Way back on Episode 33 we had a fellow that is a blood track for deer with his dogs. It was one of the most interesting podcast we have had and very timely since deer season is here. All his contact info is the same if you need him. So let travel back in time and talk blood trailing deer.

The boys take some time and talk about stand placement and strategies to get in front of that big buck or freezer queen. Of course neither have had an opportunity to put any meat on the table but that doesn't stop them. You know there will be a rabbit hole or two so get ready to learn a little and laugh a lot.

The boys know what time of the year it is. They also know that you may be tired of all the food plot prep, tree stand prep and general deer hunting talk that is everywhere right now. So tonight they are stepping out of their box and and since we are in the Halloween season they brought in Greg Howse a Bigfoot researcher. Greg and his team operate a Youtube channel called Woods Walkerz. They also have a Facebook page with the same name. Sit down with them as they talk Alabama Bigfoot and other cryptics that may be roaming the woods where you hunt and live.

Anthony had the opportunity to visit and hunt in Michigan recently. He traveled to Legends Ranch in Bitely Michigan along with several of his closest friends. To be 100% upfront this is a high fence ranch. Anthony had never hunted a high fence ranch and to be honest he didn't know what to expect. What he found out is that hunting is only a small part of the experience. From the lodge to the food the staff at Legends Ranch is World Class. He toured the breeding facility and even shot a target at 1000 yards at Legends Long Range Shooting School. Anthony also took the largest buck of his life there scoring 218". Lots of people have preconceived notions of what hunting at a place like this is but we ask you to put those away until you listen to everything that is offered at Legends Ranch and if you want to find out more you can go to their website https://legendsranch.com/ for more information. You can also follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

In this weeks episode the boys sit down and talk about what's been going on in their world. Anthony talks about getting ready for his hunting trip Michigan and his misadventures while bush hogging at his hunitng club and property. Dustin talks about how he has been preparing for the coming deer season.

With both the guys super busy. One working out of town and the other preparing for a big deer hunt, they decided to try and recorded a quick podcast to keep everyone in the loop. IS it super exciting? No. Will you learn something? Maybe. So listen to the guys catch up and talk about what is happing in their lives.

The boys sit down this week and talk a little about everything that's been going on and what's coming up in their busy fall schedule. Of course there is plenty of rabbit hole to go down and laughs to be had.

Everyone seemed to like Anthony and some of his nostalgic trips back in time so tonight the boys are looking back in time to the 1980's. Now dusting was just a little tike back then and he sure isn't a Gen X'er like Anthony but he can still contribute from his diaper days :) SO get ready to have a good time traveling back in time with the guys as they talk the 1980's plus updates on getting prepared for the upcoming fall/winter deer season.

This week the boys sit down and discuss how their 2026 opening dove season hunt went. They also answer a question that was brought up in episode 129 about the origin or the 25 shot shells to a box and it is very interesting what AI told them. AI? Are they smart enough to be using that? Well they did along with a few more interesting facts. And you know they fell off into a few rabbit holes too. So grab a seat and hang on because this is a fun one.

The boy sit down and talk about the kickoff to this years hunting season.... dove hunting. They reminisce about the good old days and memories they had from their childhood hunting and fishing. They also may go down a few rabbit holes. So sit back and laugh along with them and who knows, you might even learn something. Please share this podcast with your friends.
