    Ep.141 Snow Tracking Deer In The Big Woods

    Send us Fan Mail A deer track in fresh snow can feel like a promise, until it turns into crusted noise, tangled cedar, and a buck that never makes a mistake. We sit down with returning guest Jeremy How to tell the full story of learning to track whitetails in New Brunswick’s big woods, where the next clue is a hoof print, a scrape line, or the wind shifting at the worst possible time. Jeremy walks us through the hunt that got him hooked, the seasons where snow never showed up, and the hard lesson that a clean plan can still end with a missed shot or an unrecovered deer. We get specific about what actually helps: journaling sign over multiple years, picking terrain features that naturally funnel deer, and using a buck grunt to pull an animal those last few yards before your scent cone gives you away. Then we relive a last-day muzzleloader chase into a cedar swamp where the shot happens at point-blank range and the real work begins with quartering and packing meat out. The conversation also opens up into why tracking feels so different than sitting a bait pile, how scent control really works in close-range hunting, and what it means when the “best season” ends without a tag but with better judgment and stronger memories. We even detour into turkey hunting, spring bear season, and the kind of backcountry camp dreams that keep hunters planning all year.

    Ep.140 Camp Chat Series 1, Unfiltered

    Send us Fan Mail A seal pelt hits the table and the night instantly turns into the kind of hunting talk you can’t script. We’re kicking off our Camp Chat Series Unfiltered with a full crew, and we let it go wherever camp conversation goes: remote Nunavut work trips, wild prices, caribou everywhere, polar bear danger, and the sort of stories that only come out when everyone’s laughing at the same time. Back home in, we get into the topics that actually affect your season. Duck camp traditions are great until opening day turns into a crowded mess, and we unpack what etiquette looks like when public land borders private fields. From trail camera surprises to “that buck” you’ve watched all summer, we share a painful deer story where the plan is solid, the effort is extreme, and the ending still stings. If you’ve ever been beat by timing, you’ll feel this one. We also go straight at the bigger issue behind most hunting drama: permission. We talk trespassing, respecting landowners, and how rules like the Agriculture Act change expectations on where you can and can’t just wander. The takeaway is simple: hunt legal, hunt respectful, and stop tearing down other hunters, because the infighting only makes things worse for everyone. You’ll also hear a personal win with an archery whitetail that completes a New Brunswick slam, plus bird hunting, sandhill crane sightings, and plenty of camp-level chirping. If you like honest hunting stories, real-world advice, and a group that isn’t afraid to disagree, hit subscribe, share this with a hunting buddy, and leave a review with the one rule you think every hunter should follow.

    Ep.139 Four Moose Hunts And Four Hard Lessons

    Send us Fan Mail A bull moose at ten yards is not a “cool moment” so much as a full-body adrenaline problem, especially when you’re at full draw and he’s looking for a fight. We sit down with Lane Lewis, Darren Matthews, and Jackson McLong to unpack four New Brunswick moose hunting stories, including two archery moose with compound bows, one hard-earned dry cow in a packed zone, and one absolute giant bull that walks right into a cowpiss trail with zero calling. We get into what actually happens after the highlight reel parts: a shaky start when shots crack uncomfortably close, the mental reset it takes to keep hunting smart, and the small decisions that stack up to a clean kill. Darren breaks down his bow setup, the moment a call gets an instant grunt back, and the tracking reality of a great blood trail that suddenly disappears on a hard, compact road. Lane walks through a wild sequence of multiple bulls responding, why he refuses a risky frontal shot, and how a quick cow call stop turns a near-miss into a perfect quartering-away opportunity. We also talk broadheads, penetration, and why cut-on-contact heads earn trust on thick hide and heavy bone, plus the unglamorous but essential side of moose season: heat, field work, morale, and getting a massive animal out with a game sled, rope, and a snatch block. If you care about moose calling, archery moose hunting, New Brunswick moose season pressure, or just want true stories with the details left in, hit play.

    Ep.138 A DIY Archery Elk Hunt In Idaho Backcountry With No Drop Camp

    Send us Fan Mail We thought we were headed for a classic DIY archery elk hunt in Idaho with a solid plan and a comfortable drop camp. Then the plan blew up 48 hours before we left, one of our tags was not where it was supposed to be, and we found ourselves rolling into elk country with a rental Wagoneer packed to the ceiling and a stack of $30 Walmart tents as our new “luxury camp.” From there, it turns into a real backcountry elk hunting story: steep burn zones, deadfall that never ends, cliffy dirt roads, frozen mornings, sideways rain, and wolves that light up every time we even think about cow calling. We share the moments that hurt, the ones that made us laugh, and the ones that genuinely got sketchy, including our infamous “shortcut” loop and a close calling setup where something big is moving in the timber but never shows itself. Along the way, we talk practical elk hunting gear lessons we learned the hard way, from gaiters and Jet Boil meals to hydration, calories, and why cheap tents can work if you plan for failure. The trip wraps with a problem every DIY hunter dreads: a dead battery deep in the woods. We get help from a wolf trapper and a crew of seasoned Oregon hunters who not only get us rolling, but also give us the kind of on-the-ground insight you cannot find in a brochure, especially about wolf pressure and quiet elk. If you’re planning an Idaho elk hunt, researching Lolo Pass hunting, or just want an honest elk hunting podcast recap that keeps it real, this one is for you. Subscribe, share it with a hunting buddy, and leave a review with your own worst backcountry curveball.

    Ep.137 Are We Losing The Skill Of Calling Moose?

    Send us Fan Mail Eight yards is not a “moose hunting story” distance. It’s a “make one perfect decision after another” distance. Stephen Smith joins us fresh off New Brunswick moose season to break down a rut hunt that started with calm planning and ended with a fired-up bull coming in through thick alders like a dozer. We talk about what he heard, what he did, what he wishes he’d done sooner, and why pushing in on a raking bull is always a gamble you need to respect. We also get into Stephen’s big news: his real human moose calls are now on the COCALL system. He walks us through how the opportunity happened, why the COCALL app and Bluetooth setup can sound shockingly real, and how electronic moose calls can fit into a smart calling plan without replacing woodsmanship. If you’ve ever wondered where those sounds come from, what “good” audio really means, or how to position a speaker so the moose locks onto the sound instead of you, you’ll get clear, field-tested answers. On the scent side, Stephen shares how Pro Expedition approaches moose hunting scents, lures, and mineral sites, plus why minerals matter most over the long haul, especially for spring recovery and consistent animal patterns. We wrap with practical guidance on buck fever, shot placement coaching, fast meat care, and how sharing knowledge keeps moose calling traditions alive.

    Ep.136 How Woodcock And Grouse Dogs Are Made

    Send us Fan Mail A woodcock can sit so tight it feels impossible until you watch a dog lock up with the bird practically under its nose. That moment is the doorway into upland bird hunting, and it is exactly where our chat with Donald Henderson begins. Donald is an avid upland hunter, a field trialer, and the president of the Maritime Bird Dog Club, and he explains how a first Brittany turned into a full-on bird dog life built around training, hunting, and keeping the tradition moving forward. We get specific about pointing dog field trials and what they actually test: two dogs run as a brace, judges evaluate race, drive, style, and bird work, and a single mistake on point can end your day. Donald compares wild bird trials on woodcock and ruffed grouse with released-bird events, and he explains why modern trialing still leans on old-school tools like bells even when most of us hunt with GPS collars. We also talk training strategy, including why wild birds are the best teachers, how homing pigeons and remote launchers help start young dogs, and why woodcock are often easier for early lessons while grouse demand experience. Then we zoom out to the bigger issue: clubs and trials only exist if new people show up. Donald shares the history behind the Maritime Bird Dog Club and the North American Woodcock Championship, plus practical ways to come watch, ask questions, and get involved without feeling out of place. If you’re curious about New Brunswick woodcock hunting, ruffed grouse dog work, pointing dog training, or how field trials shape the future of bird dog breeding, this one is for you. Subscribe, share this with a hunting buddy, and leave a review if you want more conversations like this. What’s the bigger draw for you, the birds or watching a good dog work?

    Ep.135 Building A Hunting YouTube Channel

    Send us Fan Mail Two brothers can grow a hunting YouTube channel from scratch, hit nearly 200,000 subscribers as teenagers, and still keep it about the woods, not the clout. That’s what makes my conversation with Elijah and William Lomax from Squirrel Pursuit Outdoors so interesting. They grew up in a hunting family, started filming squirrel hunts  for fun, and slowly learned how to turn real outdoor days into content people actually want to watch. We get into the details creators don’t always say out loud: how YouTube Shorts gave them their first real spike, why the algorithm feels unpredictable, and what “consistency” looks like when hunting seasons are limited. They share how they brainstorm ideas from comments, how they study what’s working in the outdoor niche without copying, and why switching editors changed their long-form performance. If you’ve ever wondered what camera gear you need, how to film a hunt without blowing the moment, or how to keep a video engaging when the action happens in the last 10 seconds, you’ll get practical answers here. We also talk hunting plans and big goals, including spear hunting bears and deer, moose camp, and the pressure of coming from a family with serious track-records in New Brunswick. It’s equal parts YouTube growth strategy, hunting storytelling, and a reality check on what it takes to build an outdoor brand while still being kids.
