    High-Tech Whitetail Insights

    Derrick Dixon, founder of Whitetail Research, has been setting the deer-hunting world on fire of late, thanks to the amazing insights he has gathered on mature buck movement and behavior. Armed with a high-tech, infrared drone, the Missouri resident has literally been following mature bucks on the daily, recording their travels and interactions to piece together patterns and glean new understanding about arguably the greatest mystery in all of bowhunting – why mature bucks do what they do. Dixon joins us to discuss his amazing, ongoing research projects and how what he's learning can, and can't, benefit us as hunters. For more information, visit https://whitetailresearch.net

    Making the Best of a Bad Shot

    If you bowhunt long enough, it's going to happen. You hit an animal, and the shot placement is not ideal. The decisions you make after the shot are critical to maximize your odds of recovery. Noted Colorado bowhunter Jace Bauserman recounts his recent elk hunt and the multi-day, 30-mile effort to recover his bull.

    Peak Rut Dates for Your Area!

    Believe it or not, peak rut dates across the whitetail's range stretch all the way from July to February — an incredible span of eight months. But when is the peak of the rut where YOU hunt? Big-game biologists Brian Murphy and Jim Heffelfinger from HuntStand join us to discuss how they compiled breeding data from across North America to map peak whitetail breeding dates across more than 5,000 counties and parishes, along with peak breeding dates for mule deer, blacktail deer and elk.

    Brotherhood of the Bow

    In 1959, legendary bowhunter Harv Ebers used one of his self-made, left-handed, recurve bows to take down the world-record caribou in Alaska. Today, at age 90, Ebers is the last living original Pope and Young Club member — and he's still inspiring fellow bowhunters such as fellow lefty Tom Vanasche, who last year used the same bow to take a Wyoming whitetail, 65 years after its maiden hunt. Ebers and Vanasche discuss their special friendship and the ways traditional bowhunting transcends time.
