#267 - Stop Hunting Like You're on YouTube

Has watching too much hunting content actually made us worse deer hunters? Somewhere along the way, deer hunting became more about filming the perfect hunt, chasing giant bucks, and copying what we see on YouTube than actually learning how to hunt deer. In today's episode of Before the Echo, we're talking about why it's time to STOP hunting like you're on YouTube and start hunting for yourself. We dive into the pressure to hunt like popular YouTubers, why their strategies might not work where you hunt, how social media creates unrealistic expectations, and why keeping deer hunting simple might be the biggest advantage you have this season. Whether you're hunting public land, private land, big woods, or small properties, this episode is a reminder that you don't need to hunt like everyone else to be successful. Let's talk about it! Do you think YouTube has helped deer hunting or made hunters overcomplicate things?

#266 - I Think We're Hunting Too Much

What if hunting MORE is actually making you a WORSE deer hunter? We've all heard the saying, "You can't kill a deer sitting on the couch." But what if spending too much time in the woods is actually hurting your chances of killing a mature buck? In this episode of Before the Echo, we're challenging the idea that more time in the tree automatically means more success. Every trip into the woods has the potential to educate deer, add hunting pressure, and make an already difficult pursuit even harder. Are we hunting smarter, or are we just hunting more? We're talking about: Why hunting too much could be hurting your success How hunting pressure affects mature buck movement Why October can be a difficult time for deer hunters The difference between quality hunts and quantity hunts Why knowing when NOT to hunt might be your biggest advantage How social media has created unrealistic expectations for deer hunters Finding the balance between hunting, family, and enjoying the outdoors I also share some of my own thoughts on how my approach to deer hunting has changed and why I'm beginning to believe that sometimes less really is more. Here's the question I want you to answer: Do you believe spending more time in the woods makes you a better deer hunter, or do you think we're putting too much pressure on ourselves and the deer we're chasing?

#265 - I Don't Believe in Hunting Secrets Anymore

What if everything you've been told about deer hunting secrets is WRONG? Every year, the hunting industry introduces another revolutionary tactic, secret strategy, or must-have piece of equipment that's supposed to help you kill more mature bucks. But are there really any secrets left in deer hunting? In this episode of Before the Echo, I'm challenging the idea that successful deer hunters have some hidden knowledge the rest of us don't. With YouTube, podcasts, trail cameras, mapping apps, and endless hunting content available today, we have more information at our fingertips than ever before. Yet we're still constantly searching for that one secret that's going to change everything. Maybe the secret is that there isn't one. We're diving into: Why I no longer believe in deer hunting secrets How the hunting industry markets the next big thing Why expensive hunting gear doesn't guarantee success The difference between hunting knowledge and actual experience Why successful deer hunters consistently get the fundamentals right How social media and YouTube have changed the way we hunt Why copying successful hunters doesn't always work How we've overcomplicated something that should be simple What actually makes someone a better deer hunter Whether you're chasing mature whitetails on public land, hunting private property, or trying to improve your bowhunting skills, this conversation might change how you approach your next hunt. I'm not saying there's nothing left to learn about deer hunting. I'm saying that maybe we need to stop searching for shortcuts and start getting better at the things we already know. NOW I WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU! Do you believe there are still real secrets in deer hunting? Or has everything already been figured out? Drop your thoughts in the comments!

#264 - Why Good Deer Hunters Have Bad Seasons

Does having a bad deer season mean you're a bad hunter? Absolutely not. Some of the best deer hunters I know have gone entire seasons without killing a buck, while others seem to walk into the woods and kill a giant without much effort. So what really separates a good deer hunter from a successful one? In this episode of Before the Echo, we're talking about why even the most experienced deer hunters have bad seasons. From the role luck plays in deer hunting to overthinking your setups, unrealistic expectations, hunting pressure, and the impact of social media, we're diving into why success isn't always measured by antlers on the wall. We'll also discuss public land deer hunting, learning from failure, and why some of your toughest seasons might actually make you a better hunter. In this episode: Why good deer hunters sometimes struggle to find success How much luck really plays into killing mature bucks Why overthinking can hurt your deer hunting The pressure social media puts on hunters Why comparing your season to someone else's is a mistake How failure can make you a better hunter What actually defines a successful deer season At the end of the day, deer hunting is about more than filling a tag. Sometimes the seasons that challenge us the most are the ones that teach us the most. I want to hear from you! What's the toughest deer season you've ever had? Did it make you a better hunter?

#263 - I Was NOT Expecting This on My First Deer Hunts of the Year

Deer season is officially underway. In this first episode of THE SEASON, I’m breaking down my first couple deer hunts of the year — what I saw, what went right, what I learned, and an exciting encounter that put me right in the game early. This series is going to be a little different. Every week throughout deer season, I’m going to sit down and give you an honest look at what’s happening in the woods. The good hunts, the bad hunts, the close calls, the mistakes, the adjustments, and hopefully a few punched tags along the way. No pretending every hunt is perfect. No acting like I have everything figured out. Just deer hunting as it actually happens. If you're hunting right now too, drop a comment and let me know how your season is going and what you're seeing in your area. Subscribe to Before the Echo and follow along with THE SEASON each week. 🏹 BEFORE THE ECHO PARTNERS Latitude Outdoorshttps://www.latitudeoutdoors.com/Use code BTE ASIO Gearhttps://asiogear.com/Use code ECHO15 Hawke Opticshttps://www.hawkeoptics.com/Use code BTE Thanks to everyone who watches, listens, comments, and supports Before the Echo.

#262 - "I'm tired of Loosing my Hunting Buddies"

A comment on one of my recent podcasts stopped me in my tracks. I asked hunters what they were tired of seeing in the hunting industry. I expected answers about social media, hunting pressure, expensive gear, influencers, leasing ground, and all the other things we tend to complain about. Then an older hunter simply said: “I’m tired of losing my hunting buddies.” That one hit differently. We spend so much time worrying about killing bigger bucks, finding better spots, buying better gear, and becoming better hunters that sometimes we forget what actually makes hunting special. The people. Someday, you may look back and realize the hunts you miss the most aren't the ones where you killed the biggest deer. They're the mornings with your dad, your grandpa, your kids, or that old hunting buddy who isn't sitting beside you anymore. In this episode of Before the Echo, I want to talk about perspective, getting older, hunting with our kids, appreciating the people around us, and remembering that none of us know how many hunting seasons we have left together. Don't get so caught up trying to make memories that you forget you're already living them. If this episode makes you think of an old hunting buddy, give them a call.

#261 - I’m Done Hunting Deer Like Everyone Else

I’m done hunting deer like everyone else. It’s easy to get caught up in what everyone else is doing — the newest tactics, the perfect setups, the latest gear, and the idea that there’s only one “right” way to hunt mature bucks. But this season, I’m changing my approach. In this episode of Before the Echo, I talk about why I’m simplifying the way I hunt, trusting what I’ve learned through experience, and making decisions based on what’s actually happening in the woods instead of what everyone else says I should be doing. We’ll talk about hunting pressure, mobile hunting, overthinking setups, trusting your instincts, and why sometimes becoming a better deer hunter means doing LESS — not more. If you’ve ever felt like deer hunting has become way more complicated than it needs to be, this episode is for you.

#260 - What Are You Actually Trying to Accomplish This Deer Season?

What does a successful deer season actually look like? For most deer hunters, the obvious answer is killing a big buck. But if that's the only way we measure success, we can do almost everything right for an entire season and still walk away feeling like we failed. In this episode of Before the Echo, I’m sitting down to talk about my goals for this deer season—and why I think setting the RIGHT goals can completely change the way we hunt. We’re talking about: • My personal goals for this deer season • Outcome goals vs. goals you can actually control • Becoming a better deer hunter instead of simply hunting more • Why we shouldn't let social media change our standards • Hunting new areas and getting outside our comfort zones • Balancing deer hunting with family and the things that matter most • Why killing a buck doesn't have to determine whether your season was successful Obviously, I want to kill a mature buck. We all want to punch a tag. But I don't want one dead deer to determine whether hundreds of hours spent scouting, hunting, learning, and making memories were worth it. So here's my question for you: **What is YOUR #1 goal for this deer season—and it can't just be “kill a big buck”?** Drop it in the comments. I want to hear it. 🔥 BEFORE THE ECHO PARTNERS 🔥 🏹 LATITUDE OUTDOORS https://www.latitudeoutdoors.com/ Use code **BTE** 🦌 ASIO GEAR https://asiogear.com/ Use code **ECHO15** 🔭 HAWKE OPTICS https://www.hawkeoptics.com/ Use code **BTE** If you enjoy honest conversations about public-land deer hunting, bowhunting, scouting, and becoming a better deer hunter, subscribe to Before the Echo
