November has come and gone. This week is the opening week of Va bear season and Heath has been busy with work, volleyball, and getting a roof on his he shed, aka boat garage. In this short episode, he goes over layers of fog holding scent and how the food source will affect the bear this season. 

At the point of the recording, two nights of a four-night hunt have been accomplished. The account of opening night; a date coon hunters universally look forward to all year long, is the tale of a young dog coming of age and the tale of his journey from pup to coon dog.Each listener that keeps hounds and loves the outdoors will enjoy this podcast. The conversation will paint the picture of two friends, two hounds, a coon dog and a pup, in an amazing autumn setting that can only be experienced in depth by doing as Steve has done, by getting in the truck and putting nearly 1000 miles on the odometer before the hounds are released into the mountain air on an incredible opening night. We would like to thank those who support this podcast. Special thanks to Alpha Dog Nutrition and Double U Hunting Supply for sponsoring this episode. Want to learn more about Alpha Dog Nutrition?

"Over? Did you say 'over'? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was is over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no! It ain't over now, 'cause when the going gets tough, the tough get going. Who's with me?" Of course, this is a line from the movie Animal House, where Bluto addresses the fraternity. In today's episode, Jacob shares his recent public land hunt and how he plans to pivot now that we are in December. While in many ways it feels like the party is over, there is opportunity and Jacob shares how he will approach this next phase of the deer season.
