    Ep.105 A Free-Range Texas Adventure That Checks Every Box

    Send a text A North Carolina houndsman meets a target-rich Texas and turns a bucket list into a full-blown field course. We kick off before daylight with bodies moving through mesquite and a cold, old buck that tests our patience until legal light. By 7:12 a.m., the tag is punched. That moment opens the gate to everything Texas does loud: thermal glass sweeping wheat fields, boars and sows spilling like ink across the dark, and a sudden realization that red reticles don’t work for colorblind eyes. Switch to green, and the hits land. Farmers breathe easier; we learn why hog control is stewardship, not spectacle. Midday brings rock and thorn, where an aoudad teaches new anatomy. Heart and lungs sit in the shoulder, not behind it, and a steady 200-yard shot with a 308 proves it. The meat is better than the myths, the country spare and beautiful, and the lesson simple: every region makes you relearn what you think you know. Then the surprise—Rios in the fall. With a legal rifle and a calm rest, a Rio turkey adds a Grand Slam square while highlighting how seasons, tools, and ethics shift across state lines. We collect coyotes over hog kills, trade stories about javelina and axis dreams, and map the contrasts between scrubby flats and the oak-tangled Appalachians. Threaded through it all is the power of dogs and good people. Tyler’s plot hound roots meet Texas blood-trailing pros who help youth hunters recover deer, turning near-misses into lifelong memories. It’s a reminder that conservation isn’t a slogan—it’s decisions made at night on farm roads, in daylight on glass, and beside kids learning to breathe and squeeze. If you’re weighing a Texas trip, this story delivers practical intel on free-range opportunities, hog management, gear choices from .308s to suppressed .223s, and the terrain truths that make or break a stalk. Subscribe, share with a friend who’s planning a hunt, and leave a review to help more folks find the show. What’s the first tag you’d punch on your own Texas run?

    A Rookie Host, Eight Friends, And 104 Episodes Later We Share What Worked, What Flopped, And What’s Next

    Send a text A hundred‑plus episodes, eight friends, four mics, and two years of hard lessons—this milestone is a field‑dressed look at how a basement idea turned into a Tuesday ritual with listeners in 41 countries. We open the blinds on the origin story, from unopened gear collecting dust to a single road trip that set the format: real hunts from real people, told without polish, because the story beats the score. We trade favorite moments that shaped the show’s voice: a bighorn sheep episode where nothing died but everything mattered; a female hunter pushing into trapping and snaring with grit; and the one‑eyed Maine bear that became local legend. Our trivia nights get their due, not as fluff but as a surprising classroom—questions tuned to challenge, teach, and spark arguments worth having. Along the way we own the misses, the nerves, and the times we forgot to press record, because that’s how average hunters become better ones. Then come the big swings. We announce a DIY Idaho archery elk drop camp—wall tents, hard miles, and wolf tags that could turn a bugle into a howl. A Yukon moose draw may be on the horizon, and we’re stepping into calling competitions to grow a local scene that rarely gets this kind of stage. We also put out a call for fresh voices: javelina experts, die‑hard anglers who can make us care about catching more than casting, and anyone with a hunt that left a mark. If you’re here for perfect, this isn’t that show. If you’re here for honest stories, hard laughs, and takeaways you can actually use, pull up a chair. Subscribe, share this with a buddy who needs a spark, and leave a quick review so more hunters find the campfire. Year three starts now.

    From Bowhunting To Better Deer Herds: How Local Clubs Shape Regulations

    Send us a text If you’ve ever wondered why some places enjoy long archery seasons and robust deer herds while others lag behind, this conversation puts the puzzle together. We sit down with bowhunter advocate Tracy Price to unpack how local hunters can turn know-how and passion into real changes—longer seasons, smarter regulations, and stronger herds—by organizing through clubs that actually sit at the decision-making table. We start with the surprising reality in New Brunswick: archery makes up a tiny slice of total harvest yet faces one of the shortest seasons in North America. Tracy maps out why extending bow season creates more opportunity without risking herd numbers, and why this isn’t a gun-versus-bow fight—it’s a hunter-opportunity issue. From there, we dive into the herd science that matters most: age structure and doe-to-buck ratios. Passing on yearling bucks and improving doe tag programs can push herd growth toward that 30% potential in good winters, instead of the 5% many see now. Habitat gets an honest look too. Clearcuts, monoculture, and glyphosate reduce browse diversity, pushing deer into towns and lawns where food and safety converge. We share practical ways hunters are helping: food plots built with farmers, clover and brassicas that draw deer off crops, and a nuanced take on supplemental feeding in harsh winters. Gear debates aren’t off-limits either—compounds vs crossbows, draw weight rules—and Tracy outlines common-sense changes like lowering legal draw weight to 35 pounds, aligning orange requirements with other regions, and adding a short bow-only window to the moose season without altering the draw. The thread through it all is agency. Clubs write and advance resolutions, governments listen when memberships are strong, and policies shift when hunters show up. If you want better seasons, healthier deer, and a real voice in wildlife policy, this is your roadmap. Subscribe, share with your hunting crew, and drop a review to help more folks find the show.

    Ep.102 Moose At First Light

    Send us a text Four bulls grunting in the dark, a calm breath at legal light, and a 40-yard shot off a knee—that’s how Jen’s moose story begins. What followed was a masterclass in adapting on the fly: a last-minute elk tag surprise, shifting herd behavior after bales moved, and the grind of antlerless-only strategy on public land where every headlight means competition. We walk through how planning and patience paid off on the moose—trail cameras around beaver-dam sloughs, an island of brush for cover, and a steady .30-06 anchored perfectly behind the shoulder. Then the season pivots. With a one-week, over-the-counter antlerless elk window drawing crowds, and crop insurance changes pulling feed sources, elk went nocturnal fast. We break down the lost-calf call for drawing cows, when bugles help for locating, and how small mistakes—like a loud door or a rushed top-load—erase chances in seconds. The conversation digs into ethics and policy too. We unpack the viral video of hunters pushing elk from closed to open ground and why legality isn’t the same as fair chase. We weigh how concentrated pressure can hammer local deer during a fragile recovery after hard winters, and how predator realities—coyotes up, wolf bounties across the border—complicate management choices for ranchers and wildlife alike. Through it all, the heartbeat stays close to home: Jen’s aiming for a bow-killed whitetail, Dave’s focused on his daughter’s first deer, and the family is learning together where preparation ends and luck begins. If you’re here for practical hunting strategy, ethical debate, and a freezer-filling moose tale told straight, you’re in the right place. Subscribe, share the show with a hunting partner, and drop a review to tell us where you stand on one-week antlerless seasons and herd-pushing tactics.

    Ep.101 From Ranch Hands To Hand Calls: Building Better Coyote Sounds With Trophy Country Calls

    Send us a text Cold air, open prairie, and the kind of sound that turns distant specks into charging coyotes—this conversation with Brad Harder dives deep into what makes a predator call truly work. Brad’s the maker behind Trophy Country Calls, a ranch-hand-turned-artisan who went from freezing closed reeds and overused e-caller sounds to crafting tone boards that hold up in brutal weather and fool educated coyotes. If you’ve ever watched a dog light out at the first note of a popular FoxPro track, this is your roadmap back to authenticity. We unpack the nitty-gritty of hand calls—why open reeds offer real versatility for pup distress, jackrabbit, and tight, believable howls, and when closed reeds still shine for new callers. Brad breaks down the difference hardwoods and acrylics make for crisp, carryable sounds, and why softwoods dull the edge. Then the big surprise: horn. Steer horn and even buffalo horn chews transform projection, turning the same tone board into a louder, farther-reaching voice. From 10-gauge hull bodies to the quest for a one-piece horn howler, you’ll hear how material, channel shape, and reed pressure can change outcomes in real coyote country. Fieldcraft anchors the build talk. Brad shares the minus-35 day he pulled five coyotes off a seven-dog rush, how he’s pushing shotgun patterns inside 40 yards, and why a quiet .222 sometimes beats a louder rig. We also touch the realities of selling custom coyote calls across borders—tariffs, shipping friction, and why Texas contest hunters still chase unique sounds when prize pools soar past fifty grand. Whether you’re new to predator hunting or chasing an edge in pressured land, you’ll leave with practical methods, maker-level insight, and a fresh respect for hand-tuned calls. If this helped sharpen your setup, follow and share with a friend who lives for cold stands and close-in shot opportunities. And if you’re enjoying the show, drop a rating or review on Apple or Spotify—your feedback keeps the stories and the sound flowing. Check us out on Facebook Hunts On Outfitting, or myself Ken Marr.

    Two Moose, Two Provinces, One Unforgettable Season

    Send us a text Smell the musk before you see the antlers. That’s how Ethan knew the bull was close in a New Brunswick hellhole, wind in his face and alders shaking. What followed was a ten-yard window, a steady hold, and the kind of follow-up discipline moose hunters preach: shoot till they’re down. Then we trade thick finger bogs for long Newfoundland vistas, crossing by boat at sunrise, glassing cows stacked across the valley, and listening to a cow bawl so hard she towed a bull into a perfect 165-yard heart shot framed by brush and ocean. We walk through the full arc of a two-province season: how twelve trail cams and salt sites narrowed the map, why September shifts bulls overnight, and how timed grunts, raking, and silence can tip a standoff. Ethan breaks down his move from a .30-06 to a 6.8 Western with 175-grain loads, the importance of sturdy scope rings and clear glass, and the practice that set his ethical range at 350 yards. The takeaway is simple and serious: confirm zero, know your dope, manage wind, and make the shot clean. You’ll also get the parts that make moose hunting addictive: the gas station crowd around a tailgate, a tractor winch threading deadfall, Argos crawling into country that looks flat until it swallows a bull whole, and guides who light up when hunters bring knives, curiosity, and respect. We compare body size and behavior between New Brunswick and Newfoundland, talk calling cadence that pulls ears from kilometers away, and reflect on why a short, high-stakes season heightens every decision. If you live for big game stories grounded in woodsmanship, actionable calling tips, and honest gear talk—plus a few laughs about blown eardrums and “poor man’s pudding”—you’re in the right place. Subscribe, share this with a hunting buddy, and leave a quick review on Apple or Spotify to help more folks find the show. What would you have done at ten yards in the alders? Let us know.

    Fur, Hounds, And Idaho Grit

    Send us a text Wild stories pair with careful hands as we sit down with Amber Farrall, a houndswoman, mother, and fur craftswoman living outside Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. Amber takes us from spring bear bait sites to fast lion trees, explaining how she reads tracks, protects her dogs when wolves prowl, and brings her kids into the work with patience and care. The field notes are vivid—an ancient, toothless lion ethically tagged, a sow bear seen injured in spring and healed by fall—and they anchor a conversation about what real wildlife management looks like when you’re the one following the snow and sign. We also dive into Amber’s fur business, Patriot Leather and Fur, born from family training and fueled by a love of durable, renewable materials. She breaks down the craft with a maker’s eye: how beaver can be delicate as tissue, why fox finishes beautifully, and what it takes to stitch clean seams on a century-old fur machine. From coyote trapper hats and beaver mittens to waist muffs for trappers, Amber keeps it local—legally harvested, Idaho-tanned hides turned into gear meant to be used hard and handed down. Along the way we talk ethics, ecology, and the full-use mindset that turns a harvest into meals and heirlooms—lion loins roasted like lean pork, breakfast sausage sizzling, jerky that disappears in a day. If you’ve ever wondered how hounds, conservation, and craft can coexist, this conversation offers a grounded, first-hand look. We grapple with predator pressure on elk and deer, the reality of wolves in thick country, and the misconception that banning trapping ends the practice. Amber’s approach is steady: respect the animals, use what you take, and keep the work honest. Subscribe for more stories from the backcountry and the bench, share this with a friend who loves real gear, and leave a review to help others find the show.

    Two Giants, One Season

    Send us a text Two mature bucks in the province with Canada’s lowest deer density isn’t luck—it’s a system. We sit down with Mike Mason to unpack how careful scouting, patient all-day sits, and a smart camera strategy can turn scarce deer woods into repeatable success. Mike hunts three different areas in Guysborough County, logs every mature buck’s daytime appearance, and focuses on transition lines where habitat types meet. That structure—plus the humility to pivot when a bear wrecks a set—led him to a heavy, dark-antlered 160-class buck known as Frank the Tank and a second, gnarly old warrior that finally slipped up on a frigid December evening. We get tactical. Mike shares how he runs 12–16 cameras without burning time or fuel, why community scrapes are worth their weight in gold, and how he chooses stand locations for the winds he actually gets. We dig into seasonal shifts that break summer patterns by October, the value of south-facing winter slopes for learning deer behavior, and why note-taking over 15 years pointed him straight to late-November daylight windows. He also explains his battery and solar approach for remote sets and offers a balanced view on cell-cam ethics—where they help, where they don’t, and why patience still beats pings. The conversation ranges beyond whitetails. Mike recounts a New Brunswick spring bear hunt that produced a giant boar and highlights what makes spring bear action so electric: boar fights, rut chaos, and true trophy opportunities. We touch Nova Scotia regulations, bonus tags, required courses, and the realities of ticks across the province, then celebrate a milestone as Mike helps his wife tag her first buck. If you’re hunting big woods, low-density whitetails, you’ll walk away with clear tactics you can apply this season: scout transitions, test before you build, commit to the right wind, and be ready for an all-day sit when your notes say go.
