    EP 538 | Don't make my mistakes

    Sometimes, the biggest thing keeping us from killing a buck isn’t the deer, the weather, or the wind. It’s our own minds. This season, I’ve caught myself falling victim to analysis paralysis. I overthink access, wind direction, deer movement, and every little detail until I convince myself not to hunt an area at all. Even on my own farm, I find reasons to stay out of spots that might actually be worth hunting. In this episode, I’m talking honestly about the mental battle that comes with trying to make every hunt perfect, how overthinking can keep us out of the woods, and why sometimes we just need to quit making excuses, trust what we know, and go hunt.  . . .

    SZN 26 | My First Recurve Buck… Or So I Thought

    I finally got my first real opportunity at a buck with my recurve—and what happened after the arrow hit is a reminder that not every hunt ends the way we hope. Season 26 is officially underway, and in this episode I’m giving you a real-time update on my 2026 whitetail season. I break down the hunt from start to finish, my recurve setup, the 15-yard opportunity, the shot, and the five-plus-hour tracking job with Taylor and Mace that followed. I’m also talking early October deer movement, acorns hitting the ground, the water hole and scrape setup that brought this buck in, and a new 10-point that recently showed up on camera. This is the good, the bad and the frustrating side of chasing whitetails with a traditional bow—and I’m laying it all out there. No sugarcoating it. Just an honest look at what happened and where the season goes from here.  . . .

    EP 537 | Acorns Are Falling… Now What? | Early Season Whitetails

    Early October can be one of the most overlooked opportunities of the entire whitetail season—but when the acorns start dropping, the deer can change their patterns fast. In this episode, Arron sits down with Alex to talk about preparing for the early season, finding deer as food sources begin to change, and the importance of putting the pieces together before hunting pressure ramps up. They break down this year’s heavy red and shingle oak crop, how it’s influencing bedding and travel, and how they’re using fresh sign, scrapes, and doe family groups to begin narrowing down where mature bucks are spending their time. Arron also talks about making the switch from a compound to a 57-inch recurve and the challenges of shooting traditional equipment from a saddle, while Alex shares his thoughts on hunting hill country, managing thermals, and the realities of side-hilling to keep the wind in your favor. The guys also look ahead to upcoming hunts in Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma as the season begins to build toward the rut. Early season is here. The deer are changing, the woods are changing, and now is the time to start figuring out where that buck is going to be.  . . .

    535 | The Back Door to Big Bucks: River Access & Public Land with Lucas Cayko

    What if the best way to get to a big public-land buck… is by boat? In this episode, I sit down with Lucas to break down his unique approach to hunting river systems and the mature bucks that live in them. Lucas uses boats 90% of the time, staging them at different points along the river so he can quietly slip in the “back door,” avoid other hunters, and take advantage of river thermals and natural barriers to control his scent. We get deep into how he scouts these properties, from finding oxbows, pinch-downs, mud flats and cattail funnels to identifying the big tracks, fallen timber and nasty cover that can give away where mature bucks are bedding. Lucas also explains why he looks for public properties with limited access points and thick cover that most hunters simply don't want to fight through. Then we get into the actual hunting strategy—hunting the edge of a buck's safe zone instead of the bed itself, using the river to manipulate wind and thermals, and sometimes simply “dipping your toes in the water” to learn how deer are using an area before making an aggressive move. And it's not all about chasing big bucks. Lucas talks about introducing his 11-year-old son to bowhunting, learning from his traditional ground-hunting father, and why he's planning to stay closer to home this fall to support his daughter's senior-year sports. If you're interested in river-bottom whitetails, public land, boat access, mature bucks and finding overlooked places other hunters aren't willing to go, this is an episode you don't want to miss.  . . .

    EP 534 | Breaking His Own Rules to Kill a North Dakota Buck

    What do you do when the hunting strategy you normally swear by suddenly puts a mature North Dakota buck in front of you? This week, Arron sits down with Dustin to break down his recent North Dakota whitetail hunt—a trip filled with pressure, limited access, close encounters, and one unexpected trail-camera photo that changed everything. With non-residents unable to hunt public land for the first 9½ days, Dustin and Wade had to get creative, scouting for non-posted private ground and figuring out where they could hunt. After multiple deer encounters, Dustin finally got his opportunity at a mature 9-point with heavy mass and big bases. But there’s more to this hunt than just the kill. Dustin talks about why using a trail camera felt completely backwards compared to the way he normally hunts, how he judges a buck on the hoof, dealing with deer movement and hunting pressure, and the small decisions that ultimately led to putting an arrow through a North Dakota buck. They also talk gear, strategy, and what Dustin is looking forward to most next—helping his nephew chase his first deer in Minnesota. If you want to learn how to adapt when the conditions, regulations, and deer don't cooperate with your normal game plan, this is an episode you don't want to miss.  . . .
