    47: Washington Blacktail To Idaho Whitetail: A Hunter’s Shift With Boaz Koski (Idaho)

    Boaz Koski grew up in the thick, wet timber of southwest Washington, where 50 yard shots felt long and the rain was just part of the deal. In this episode, he talks about what shaped him as a hunter, why he left Washington for southern Idaho, and how fatherhood is changing what success in the field looks like. From tagging along at four years old to running his own ridges at 14, Boaz learned early that hunting is bigger than antlers. He shares two bear encounters that still sting, the Roosevelt bull that walked away because the shot was not right, and the mindset shift that comes with trying to raise boys who know what public land means. Now in Idaho, he is adjusting to open desert views, mountain country, and new animals, with whitetail hunting and deer hunting taking center stage alongside coyotes. We dive into: Washington to Idaho shift Coastal timber and constant rain traded for desert heat, snowdrifts, and big country. Deer hunting across species Blacktail habits, first Idaho whitetail, and why mule deer still calls his name. Thermals and tight quarters How wind, thermals, and thick cover shape every move out west. Public land pressure and etiquette What 20,000 acres looks like when rifle season turns into a hornet’s nest. Hunting as legacy From a four year old with toy binoculars to a wife starting to get curious. It’s a grounded conversation about whitetail hunting, deer hunting, and learning the terrain, from rainy Washington timber to Idaho mountain and desert country, told the way A Hunter’s Legacy was meant to sound.

    46: Mobile Hunting The Steep Ridges Of North Carolina Appalachia With Cody Triplett (North Carolina)

    This episode of A Hunter’s Legacy heads into the mountains of North Carolina with Cody Triplett, a rock quarry welder and heavy equipment operator who lives in small town Appalachia where Christmas trees outnumber crop fields and the hills are steep enough to make you think twice about every step. Cody’s story starts with family. His dad passed when he was five, but deer hunting stayed in his blood, and his mom became the one who taught him how to read the woods. From sitting on the ground near mountain laurel thickets to killing his first buck as a kid with a shaky rifle on his mom’s shoulder, this conversation blends the kind of hunting memories that stick with you with the tactics that came later. Cody breaks down how whitetail hunting changes in big woods country, why wind and thermals do not behave like the forecast in steep terrain, and how calling can turn a cold November morning into two bucks in two days. He also talks mobile hunting, milkweed, and learning when not to hunt, even when the season is open. We dive into: North Carolina Mountain Whitetails Steep ridges, laurel thickets, and big woods deer hunting without much farmland. Calling in the Rut Grunt call, snort wheeze, and rattling when bucks are searching and bristled up. Wind and Thermals Why swirling air and thermal pull make stand choice more important than a forecast. Mobile Hunting Lessons Moving trees, scouting sign, and hunting bedding areas instead of repeating the same stand. It’s a real look at deer hunting in North Carolina Appalachia, where the rut can be electric, the climbs are brutal, and the wins are earned. A Hunter’s Legacy stays true to everyday hunters and the stories behind whitetail hunting, North Carolina deer season, and mountain deer tactics. Like what you’re hearing?

    42: The Turkey Season Shot That Changed How He Trusts the Woods With Eric Lochman (Pennsylvania)

    Eric Lochman grew up hunting the cold woods of Pennsylvania, where opening day meant tree forts, deer drives, and enough pressure to push whitetails into the thickest cover they could find. What started as kids being turned loose to “walk the woods” slowly turned into a lifelong understanding of how pressure, access, and safety shape the way people hunt in the Northeast. In this episode, Eric breaks down old school Pennsylvania deer drives, how rifle pressure changes deer movement instantly, and why he no longer wants anything to do with organized drives. The conversation turns serious as Eric shares the story of losing a family member in a hunting accident, how it changed the way he views gun safety, and why crowded public land now feels more dangerous than ever. From orange requirements to overlapping seasons, it’s an honest look at how risk creeps into places hunters take for granted. They also dive into access issues, trespassing, dealing with neighbors, managing a small reclaimed strip mine property, and the long game of habitat work in brutal soil conditions. From chestnut trees and food plots to trail cameras and boundary disputes, Eric explains what it’s really like trying to build something meaningful when pressure never stops. This one is raw, uncomfortable at times, and grounded in reality. A reminder that hunting isn’t just about deer. It’s about responsibility, respect, and the people you trust in the woods.

    41: What It’s Like Bowhunting Where Gun Season Sounds Like War With Daniel Davis (West Virginia)

    Daniel Davis grew up in the hills of central West Virginia, following his dad through steep hollers, creek bottoms, and big timber. Hunting there meant learning the woods the hard way. No food plots. No easy access. Just pipeline cuts, rugged terrain, and years of trial and error that shaped how Daniel hunts today. In this episode, Daniel talks about being “turned loose” as a teenager, the trust his dad placed in him, and how solo bowhunting became part of who he is. They get into West Virginia hunting culture, why compound bows demand discipline, and how gun season pressure and neighboring properties make deer management difficult. Daniel breaks down how deer use benches, hollers, and pipeline crossings, how patterns change overnight, and why swirling mountain winds ruin even good setups. The conversation moves through scent control, big timber strategy, declining deer numbers, EHD, and the divide between meat hunters and management minded bowhunters. They also swap gear mistakes, forgotten releases, and close calls that every hunter recognizes. It’s an honest look at Appalachian whitetail hunting shaped by family, terrain, and learning everything the hard way. If you’ve hunted steep ground or learned the woods from your dad, this one will feel familiar. Like what you’re hearing? Hit subscribe so you don’t miss an episode. New stories drop every week.

    40: Why He Chooses October Pain Over Hunting The Rut with Weber Herbison (Mississippi)

    Weber Herbison grew up hunting the Mississippi Delta, where big woods, flat ground, and endless options give whitetails every advantage. He still hunts the same kind of country today, balancing life as a dentist with a season spent trying to outthink deer that refuse to play by Midwest rules. No funnels. No predictable movement. Just patience, trial and error, and long sits wondering where they went. In this episode, Weber talks about starting young, learning the woods by following his dad, and how Southern deer force you to hunt differently. He explains why October is often better than the rut, how mature bucks avoid main trails, and why waiting on “rut magic” usually leads to empty woods where he hunts. They get into swirling winds, scent control, and why patterning deer in big timber can feel like chasing ghosts. The conversation dives deeper into baiting in the South, does blowing up setups, and how bears and hogs completely change the game in places like Louisiana and Mississippi. Weber breaks down wildly different rut timing across the South, how deer personalities show up on cameras, and why some bucks live in tight pockets while others roam miles overnight. This one is about adapting when nothing is guaranteed, trusting your reads, and sticking it out when the deer always seem one step ahead. Like what you’re hearing?
