    Ep.123 Deer Season Prep That Works

    Send us Fan Mail Deer season doesn’t sneak up on you, it exposes you. If you wait until September to figure out access, wind, and where deer actually travel, you end up hunting memories instead of patterns. We sit down with Mike Mason to lay out a practical early summer deer hunting prep plan built for real woods, not perfect food plot country. We dig into how Mike scouts new ground using Google Maps and HuntStand, then confirms it with boots on the ground. Pinch points, funnels, saddles between ridges, hardwood ridges, transition areas, and small natural openings all become high-percentage places to start. In thick timber, he likes walking creeks and brooks to find repeatable crossings, and he explains why mature bucks often use less obvious trails that stay tight to cover. From there, we get tactical: setting stands for your prevailing wind, avoiding the “wrong wind” sit that blows up your best location, and choosing between ground blinds and ladder stands based on sightlines and scent control. We also talk shooting lanes, quiet entry and exit routes, trail camera timing, and why summer photos don’t always translate to fall movement. Finally, we hit the most overlooked prep of all: your weapon and your shooting setup. Sight in early, practice with the same ammo you hunt with, and make sure your rest and angles work from the stand you’ll actually use. If this helps you, subscribe, share it with a hunting buddy, and leave a review so more hunters find the show. Check us out on Facebook  Hunts On Outfitting, or myself Ken Marr.

  2. Ep.122 Black Bear Talk With Ken And Terance

    Ep.122 Black Bear Talk With Ken And Terance

    Send us Fan Mail A big boar comes in after a week of absence, the shot looks right, the arrow is a clean pass through, and the blood trail is shocking for a bear. Then the track turns into every hunter’s gut punch: you hear coughing, you bump him once, you push hard because the sign feels “too good,” and eventually the trail just ends in thick, swampy woods. That’s where my conversation with Terance Boss of Boss Outfitting in Alberta begins, and it quickly turns into the kind of honest bear hunting talk most people only have around a fire. Terance has guided black bear hunts since the late 1990s, and he’s seen what bears can survive: old bullets in shoulders, missing legs, and hits that make no sense until you’re skinning one out. We unpack what bear behavior after the shot can hint at, why waiting is part of ethical bowhunting and rifle hunting, and how easy it is to turn a recoverable bear into a nightmare by pushing too soon. We also get practical about baiting, from running meat early to switching when heat makes it brutal, the truth behind candy myths, and why trail cameras and any “new” smell can become a magnet because you simply cannot beat a bear’s nose. Then the conversation goes wild in the best way: wolves circling bait sites, wolverines that make full grown bears scatter, and what happens when hunting pressure drops and conflicts spike, from beehives to wrecked ATVs. We close by talking remote bears, grizzly expansion, and why conservation often means targeting older, dominant animals even when that makes some people uncomfortable. If you care about spring bear hunting, black bear baiting, tracking, and making better decisions after the shot, you’ll get a lot from this one.

    Ep.121 Trivia Night Challenge 9, Canadian Hunting Edition! Test your Skills

    Send us Fan Mail Think you’ve got Canadian hunting knowledge locked down? We put that confidence to work in a full trivia showdown where the answers are measured in inches, years, and hard numbers, not just campfire “I heard” stories. Lane Lewis grabs the host seat for one of our rowdier formats, with Jacob Armstrong fact checking and two teams battling for bragging rights and a pair of River’s Edge Game Calls crow calls. There’s a small technical hiccup early on, then we find a rhythm and the questions start landing. We bounce through Canadian hunting trivia that actually teaches you something: record class Boone and Crockett style animals, which province consistently produces top whitetail entries, and what “world record” really means when you’re talking non typical mule deer. We get into the North American Super Slam conversation, including how many of those species you can hunt in Canada and why rule changes (like polar bear access) matter to the list. Then the episode widens into the stuff that shapes every season. We talk about the lead shot ban for waterfowl hunting in Canada and the timeline that moved hunters toward non toxic shot, plus what makes loads effective in the real world. Conservation comes up with Delta Waterfowl’s century mark, Ducks Unlimited habitat work, and the constant tension between biology, public sentiment, and policy, highlighted by BC’s 2017 grizzly bear hunting ban. We also hit a few surprising stats, like the percentage of Canadians who hunt at least one day a year, and we close on a New Brunswick black bear population question that decides the game. If you like hunting history, Canadian wildlife management, and a competitive roundtable that doesn’t take itself too seriously, hit play, then subscribe, share the show with a buddy, and leave a rating and review.

    Ep.120 Striped Bass On The Chocolate River

    Send us Fan Mail One muddy river can humble you fast, especially when you haven’t fished in nearly a decade and you decide to jump straight into Nova Scotia striped bass season. We record this one remotely on location after a long day on the Stewiacke River, trading clean studio audio for real river energy, late-night laughs, and the kind of fishing story that only happens when the weather is cold, the tide is moving, and the fish are there. Chris Globe, a lifelong striper guy from Millbrook First Nation, breaks down why the Stewiacke and Shubenacadie River system is so special, how the fish move between Grand Lake and the Bay of Fundy, and what’s actually going on during the spring spawn. We talk through the bait closure regulations, single-hook artificial lure rules, and why this window can produce incredible action while still demanding extra care from anglers. If you’ve ever wondered how a river can look like chocolate milk and still hold picky fish, you’ll get plenty of real-world answers. Then we get into the good stuff: casting disasters, boots full of water, getting stuck in mud, learning what “bumping fish” means, and the painful truth about the one that got away. We also share practical striped bass fishing tips you can use anywhere, from tide timing and “running and gunning” for schools to lure choices like grub tails and jerkbaits, plus how a net can change your landing and quick-release success. If you care about catch and release best practices, fish handling, and keeping a world-class fishery healthy, this conversation goes there too. If you enjoy the ride, subscribe, share this with a fishing buddy, and leave a review so more hunters and anglers can find the show. What’s the biggest lesson you learned the hard way on the water?

    Ep.119 How A North Carolina Hound Pack Found A World Record Tied Black Bear

    Send us Fan Mail One trail cam photo. A last-second change of plans. Then a black bear so big it ties the world record on skull measurement. We’re joined by returning guest Tyler Young from Old Fort, North Carolina, and he walks us through the full chain of events that led to an officially weighed 574 pound mountain bear and a Boone and Crockett score of 23 9/16. What makes this story hit is how grounded it is: careful dog work, smart choices under pressure, and a crew trying to do it right in steep, thick country. We talk hound hunting from the inside out: what Tyler keeps in his kennel, why Plotts still have a reputation for grit, and how he trains dogs through the summer on private land when many hunters can’t legally run year-round. Tyler explains baiting realities, seasonal food shifts, and why he often runs at night to protect his hounds from heat and humidity. He also shares a blunt reminder that these animals fight back, including the time a bear grabbed him and bit through his jeans and boot during a ground encounter. Then we get into the hunt itself, step by step: why they switched locations, why they started with a smaller pack, how the bear kept bailing through cover, and how shot safety around baying dogs shaped every move. We wrap with the brutal pack-out, the scoring and awards, and a bigger conversation about conservation, perception, and what it will take to keep hound hunting alive as land access shrinks and public opinion shifts. If you care about black bear hunting, North Carolina bear hunting, hound hunting ethics, or what “record book” really means, this one’s for you. Subscribe, share it with a hunting buddy, and leave a review with your thoughts: would you have made the same switch when that camera alert came in?

    Ep.118 Ryan Bennett Explains How To Get Good At Archery, And Much More!

    Send us Fan Mail A perfect round sounds impressive until you learn what “perfect” actually means in tournament archery. We’re joined by Ryan  Bennett, a young Elite-sponsored shooter who’s already stacking wins, plus Lane Lewis and Darren Matthews to keep the conversation honest, funny, and grounded in real hunting life.  We get into how Ryan started with zero archery background, what changed when he finally got a proper bow tune, and why 3D tournaments feel like golf with adrenaline. Ryan breaks down competitive archery in plain language: indoor target scoring, outdoor variables, hunter class limitations, K50 rules, rangefinders, stabilizers, lenses, and why the top level becomes a brutal game of “you cannot miss.” We also talk big stages like the Las Vegas Shoot and the Lancaster Archery Classic, including what makes each event different for pressure, format, and nerves.  Ken also shares a tough personal story from black bear hunting: a shot that looked right, heavy blood, and still no recovery. That leads into a serious talk about ethical shots, realistic bowhunting distances, string jumping, and why tournament reps can sharpen decision-making when a real animal steps in. Ryan adds stories from traveling to France to shoot and explore hunting culture, plus the strange reality of Vegas off the shooting line.  If you care about bowhunting, competitive archery, 3D archery, target archery training, and the mindset that holds up under pressure, this one’s for you.

    Ep.117 Three Turkeys In Three Countries, One Spring

    Send us Fan Mail Three turkeys in one spring sounds like bragging rights until you hear what it actually takes. I’m Ken Marr, and I sit down with Ontario turkey hunter and caller Adrian Hare to unpack a wild run that spans three countries and three very different birds: an Osceola in South Florida, a Gould’s turkey in Durango, Mexico, and an Eastern turkey back home in Ontario. If you love spring turkey hunting, this one is packed with the kind of details you only get from someone who has chased gobblers for decades and still pays attention to what the woods are telling him.  We start with Adrian’s background on the Quaker Boy pro staff and what competition calling taught him about diaphragm calls, reed counts, and why certain cuts create the rasp and realism hunters chase. Then we dig into tactics that travel: how to hunt quieter Osceola turkeys without overcalling, why a patient sit can beat running and gunning, and how he approaches morning birds versus afternoon birds. We also get into shotgun decisions like using a 410 with TSS, pattern confidence, and how regulations and shot size choices affect performance.  Mexico shifts the strategy again. Adrian explains why dry country makes water holes the center of the game for Gould’s turkeys, how fast these birds move, and what rocky hills and valleys mean for setups and calling. Finally, we come back to Ontario for a blunt look at turkey population drops after deep snow winters, why fewer hens changes everything, and what hunters can watch for as hatch rates and spring weather shape the future.  If you enjoyed this conversation, subscribe so you don’t miss the next one, share it with a turkey buddy, and leave a quick review so more hunters can find the show.

    Ep.116 Jet Boat Bear Camp

    Send us Fan Mail A two-hour jet boat ride, an island camp lit up in the middle of nowhere, and black bears showing up like they own the place. That’s the kind of hunting story that sounds exaggerated until you hear how it’s built.  We sit down with Jason from Extreme Outdoor Guides and Outfitters, a 37-year veteran Canadian hunting guide who starts as a teenage camp helper and works his way through just about every big game hunt Canada can throw at a person. We talk honestly about the sacrifices of guiding, how he keeps anxious clients steady, and what he learns by “reading” hunters before they ever arrive. If you’ve ever wondered what separates a good outfitter from a great one, Jason explains it in plain language: access, pressure, preparation, and decisions under stress.  Then we get into the nuts and bolts of a remote northern Alberta black bear hunt near Fort McMurray, where jet boats replace quads and even planes can’t compete. Jason breaks down spring bear baiting strategy along river systems, how wind follows the curves of the river, and why setting hunters tight to the bank can keep scent flowing away from the bait. We also talk rifles and bows, why shot placement beats bringing the biggest cannon in your safe, and what broadhead choices help on animals that can “plug up” blood trails fast. And yes, there’s a bear camp story that starts with a text that only says “help.”  If you’re planning a guided black bear hunt, a moose hunt, or you just love real backcountry hunting talk, you’ll get practical tactics and hard-earned perspective here. Subscribe so you don’t miss future conversations, share this with a hunting buddy, and leave a review with the one gear choice you refuse to hunt without.
