  How To Hunt Deer - What's More Important, Access or Stand Location? 15.09.2026 46min

  The advice most deer hunters get about access routes is backwards. If you want more daylight deer sightings this season, start thinking like the deer do, not like the guy walking straight to a stand.Dan Johnson and Jason Thibodeau break down the route-planning mistakes that cost hunters their best chances, and the simple shifts that can make a small property huntable again. If you’re juggling family schedules, limited days in the woods, or a piece of ground that only offers one way in, this conversation gets practical fast.Dan shares the moment that changed how he hunts forever: when he stopped marching directly to tree stands and started reverse-engineering his approach from the deer’s point of view. Jason adds the realities of hunting smaller parcels, big properties with only a few access options, and what happens when wind, terrain, and pressure all collide.You’ll discover:Why the best access route often starts with the destination, not the truckHow to use fence lines, waterways, terraces, and terrain breaks to stay hiddenWhy the “rule of ninety” can help you slip into a stand without blowing everything outHow thermals and water can move scent farther than most hunters realizeWhen to hunt aggressively, when to back off, and when to move your stand altogetherDan also shares a real-world example of tearing down a setup mid-hunt and relocating just 15 to 20 yards to get within range, then killing the buck that evening. Jason explains how he thinks through exits as carefully as entrances, especially when hunting staging areas and bedding areas where one bad walk-out can burn a spot for good.If you’ve ever wondered whether access routes matter more than stand locations, or how to balance wind, terrain, and limited time in the woods, this episode gives you the kind of field-tested guidance you can use right away. Essential listening for bowhunters, public-land hunters, and anyone trying to turn a good piece of ground into a better one.Our Sponsors:* Check out MyBookie and use my code SE for a great deal: https://www.mybookie.ag* Check out Nathan and Sons at https://nathanandsons.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  We Do This Too - Start Hunting The Moment 14.09.2026 46min

  In this solo episode of the We Do This Too Outdoors Podcast, I get real about what it means to stop hunting just for the deer and start hunting for the moment. The sunrise. The quiet woods. The sound of leaves moving. The time spent sitting in a tree. The memories made with family and friends. The lessons God teaches us when we're willing to slow down and listen.We put a lot of pressure on ourselves to fill tags, chase bigger bucks, and make every hunt successful. But what if success in the outdoors isn't always measured by what you bring home?Sometimes the biggest part of the hunt is simply being there.This episode is a reminder to slow down, enjoy the process, appreciate the opportunity, and understand that the memories you make in the woods can mean more than the deer you take.Stop hunting the deer.

  Man Therapy - Stop Complaining and Start Living 14.09.2026 1t 3min

  A raw 9/11 conversation turns into something bigger: perspective, grit, and the uncomfortable question of what we owe our kids, our country, and each other. Dan Johnson and Kyle start with family, wrestling, and the pressure of young athletes proving themselves, then pivot into a powerful reflection on how tragedy changes the way we see failure, sacrifice, and what really matters.Dan shares what it means to prepare his daughter for a brutal wrestle-off, not just physically, but emotionally—including how to lose with grace when the outcome matters most. Kyle adds the therapist’s lens, the athlete’s mindset, and the reality of trying to motivate kids without turning into the “dad voice” that makes them tune out. Together, they wrestle with how much to push, how to teach resilience, and why sports can reveal who someone really is.Then the episode takes a hard turn into September 11th. Dan recounts exactly where he was when the towers were hit, how his response has evolved from rage to compassion over the years, and why the day still forces him to check his own priorities. Kyle shares his own vivid memories of watching the attacks unfold in real time from a college dorm, along with the lasting impact of seeing the country stunned, scared, and briefly united. They talk through the national mood, the rise of distrust, and why so many people now question the government and the media.You’ll also hear them break down several of the most talked-about 9/11 conspiracy theories, including the World Trade Center 7 collapse, the missing trillions, and claims of advance warning. Rather than stopping at outrage, they dig into the tension between incompetence, corruption, propaganda, and the human need to make sense of chaos.This episode hits on loss, responsibility, conspiracy, patriotism, and the way ordinary people keep showing up for family when the world feels unsteady.

  Western Rookie - Elk Success In Harsh Conditions 11.09.2026 57min

  EPISODE DESCRIPTION - Ready to publishColorado just changed the elk hunting game—and the next round of regulations could reshape how residents and non-residents chase tags, points, and opportunity. If you hunt the West, this is the kind of episode that can save you years of confusion and help you make smarter decisions before the 2028 changes take effect.Dan Johnson sits down with Colorado hunter Adam Parr to break down what is really happening with the state’s draw system, why archery tags went from over-the-counter to draw for non-residents, and how point creep has exploded in some units. Adam explains the new system’s biggest shifts, including the move toward a 50/50 split between preference-point tags and weighted lottery tags, plus the simplified point-buying process that could make Colorado easier to navigate and more fair.You’ll discover:What Colorado’s current over-the-counter options actually are for non-residentsWhy some archery units jumped from a few points to double-digit point totalsHow the new draw rules may change your odds and planning strategyWhy the state’s regulation updates could reduce complexity instead of adding to itHow residents and non-residents should think differently about long-term tag planningAdam also shares how he approaches his own season as a resident hunter—from deciding when to burn points versus hunt over the counter, to scouting, glassing, trail cameras, and why he targets unpressured elk early in the season. He talks through the realities of hunting at 9,000 to 10,000 feet, how dry years push elk higher into timber, and the small details that separate a filled freezer from a long, exhausting grind.Then the conversation turns tactical. Adam explains the strategies he uses to find elk, including location bugles in the dark, reading fresh sign, hunting natural pinch points, and using terrain and wind to his advantage. He also makes a strong case for hybrid broadheads on elk, especially when blood trailing and recovery matter most.If you are applying in Colorado, planning a Western hunt, or trying to stretch your points without wasting years, this episode gives you a real-world look at what is changing and how to adapt. It’s essential listening for Western hunters who want more than hype and fewer expensive mistakes.Our Sponsors:* Check out MyBookie and use my code SE for a great deal: https://www.mybookie.ag* Check out Nathan and Sons at https://nathanandsons.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  N.F.C. - Next Level Bowhunting Strategy 11.09.2026 50min

  Big deer hunting success comes down to two things most hunters get wrong: trigger control and finding the micro pocket that deer actually use. Dan Johnson breaks down how to resist shooting the first decent buck that walks by, why that discipline is the difference between filling a tag and chasing a true target buck, and how access routes, bedding edges, and staging areas can completely change your odds.He also shares the real-world thinking behind hunting pressure, trail camera strategy, and why the smallest overlooked pocket in thick cover often holds the oldest deer on the property. If you’ve ever felt one good buck away from breaking down and taking the shot, this episode will hit home.You’ll discover:How to build your own “hit list” and stick to it without blowing the season too earlyWhy trigger control matters more when you’re trying to move from average bucks to mature deerHow micro pockets, bedding edges, and soft transitions create high-percentage setupsThe difference between morning and evening access routes and why one bad entry can wreck a huntWhat staging areas really look like, including the edge sign that gives them awayDan also gets candid about the sacrifices behind chasing bigger bucks, from eating tag soup to passing deer you’ve already convinced yourself to shoot. This is the mindset episode for hunters who want to level up, make sharper decisions, and stop wasting opportunities on the wrong deer.Perfect for whitetail hunters heading into archery season, especially if you’re trying to hunt smarter, pass more deer, and finally connect on the buck you’ve been waiting for.Head to www.mybookie.ag, use promo code [SE], and get in on the action today.

  Bama Wall Hangers - Tag It & Bag It! 10.09.2026 1t 5min

  This episode centers on Johnny Bauman and his company, Tagged and Bagged, a hunting accessory brand built to help hunters transport birds properly to the taxidermist. The idea was born from a painful personal experience: losing a dog’s last retrieve to freezer burn. That moment inspired Johnny to create a higher-quality solution that protects birds and preserves the memories connected to them. The hosts relate to that purpose because they understand how much care goes into turning a hunt into a lasting keepsake.The conversation explains how Tagged and Bagged works and why it matters. The product includes a large protective bag, tags, cotton, wrapping materials, instructions, and other supplies designed to prevent freezer damage. The group emphasizes that the product is American-made, compact, and useful for hunters who travel. They also discuss how properly packaged birds save taxidermists time and reduce the risk of damaged feathers or other problems.The episode also explores hunting culture, business ethics, and the challenges taxidermists face. Johnny, Brad, and Tucker discuss deposits, delayed pickups, storage fees, communication, and the difficulty of holding completed mounts for months or years. All parties are looking for solutions to this matter.The final section features several memorable hunting stories. Johnny describes a dramatic Vancouver Island duck hunt involving a 14-foot boat, an axle repair in a Walmart parking lot, heavy fog, tidal dangers, crab traps, and a successful harvest of numerous sea ducks. He also shares the story of an Idaho bear hunt and talks about an upcoming Alaska trip for sandhill cranes, ducks, fishing, and possibly black bear. The episode closes with themes of adventure, perseverance, friendship, and helping hunters protect the memories created in the field.https://taggedandbagged.comHead to www.mybookie.ag, use promo code [SE], and get in on the action today.

  Deep In The Hunt Of Texas - Dove Season Opener and Deer Season Talk 10.09.2026 1t 26min

  Connor Little welcomes Brandon Smith back to the podcast to celebrate the return of hunting season in Texas. They begin by recapping their opening-weekend dove hunts, discussing dry conditions, extreme heat, bird numbers, and the different experiences of hunting in North and South Texas. Connor also shares the story of his long drive south, a memorable breakfast-taco stop, and the advantages of using a 28-gauge shotgun for morning dove.The conversation expands into gear and strategy, including the differences between 28-, 20-, and 12-gauge shotguns, hunting ducks on large lakes, and the frustration of birds landing outside comfortable shooting range. Connor and Brandon also discuss taxidermy costs, turnaround times, and rifle cartridges such as the 6.5 PRC and .25-06.They then look ahead to the rest of the season. Brandon talks about hunting a small property where deer primarily travel through, while Connor shares his plans for South Texas and his goal of eventually taking a 150-class buck in Bowie. Both hosts explain why they enjoy introducing friends and new hunters to the outdoors, even when it means giving up some personal hunting time.The episode also includes stories from Louisiana fishing trips and Brandon’s past spearfishing adventure in Mexico. They close with a detailed discussion about passing deer, the value of mature bucks, and how property size, deer movement, personal history, and the possibility of never seeing a buck again can all influence the final decision.Head to www.mybookie.ag, use promo code [SE], and get in on the action today.

  N.F.C. - Deer Hunting: Less Pressure More Patience 09.09.2026 50min

  Ten years changes the hunter, but maybe not in the way you think. Ryan Mead sits down with Dan Johnson to compare notes on a decade of bowhunting, deer behavior, and the hard truth that experience eventually changes how much you care about doing everything “perfect.”Ryan opens up about what has shifted most since his last appearance on Nine Finger Chronicles - from being overly cautious with trail cameras and stand access to prioritizing time, family, and high-percentage hunts over obsessive preseason perfection. Dan and Ryan break down how that mindset affects when to move cameras, when to hunt mornings, why some properties fire in late October, and why pressure from neighbors can push bucks exactly where you want them.You’ll discover:Why Ryan stopped overthinking every trail camera move and now focuses on efficiencyHow his Michigan properties behave differently from his Northeast Missouri leaseWhy late October can outproduce the “popular” November dates on certain farmsHow deer movement shifts when crops come out, cover changes, and pressure ramps upWhat years of hunting multiple states have taught him about buck quality, timing, and patienceRyan also shares the reality of balancing deer hunting with work, family, and a side passion for three-on-three basketball at 44, plus the lessons he learned from out-of-state trips in Kansas and Missouri, including the classic “Michigan mistake” - shooting too soon when you finally see the kind of bucks you never get at home.This episode is perfect for hunters who are trying to decide whether to keep grinding preseason or simplify, and for anyone who has ever wondered if the “right” hunting dates are really the same everywhere.

  Pennsylvania Woodsman - Does Your Gun Actually Like That Ammo? 09.09.2026 1t 7min

  In this episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman, Mitchell is joined by Ryan Burnett of Pattern Pros to talk about one of the most overlooked pieces of hunting preparation—actually knowing how your gun and ammunition perform together. Ryan explains how Pattern Pros grew from a frustrating day of shotgun patterning into a way for hunters to test multiple loads without buying full boxes of ammunition that may not work well in their gun. The guys walk through the process of properly patterning a shotgun at different distances, understanding point of aim versus point of impact, evaluating pattern density, and determining which gun, choke, and shell combination gives you the best opportunity when it's finally time to pull the trigger.The conversation expands beyond waterfowl into turkey hunting, choke tubes, modern steel shot, and even choosing factory ammunition for a deer rifle. Mitchell and Ryan discuss how hunters can spend thousands of dollars on guns, optics, decoys, clothing, and other equipment while overlooking the relatively simple step of testing what their firearm actually shoots best. More importantly, they discuss the ethical responsibility hunters have to eliminate as many controllable variables as possible before taking a shot at an animal. You don't have to be a ballistics expert or gun fanatic—you just need to put in enough time before the season to know what happens when you pull the trigger.Head to www.mybookie.ag, use promo code [SE], and get in on the action today.

  How To Hunt Deer - How To Hunt The Second Half Of September 08.09.2026 47min

  September deer hunting is changing fast, and the hunters who keep using August tactics are about to get left behind. Dan Johnson and Jason Thibodeau break down the second half of September, when drying beans, dropping acorns, shifting deer movement, and early crop harvests start rewriting the map right under your feet.If you need to figure out where deer are moving now - and how to stay ahead of them before the October opener - this conversation gives you the playbook. Dan and Jason get into what the landscape is telling you, why trail cameras are already revealing key clues, and how to adjust when bucks go from patternable to unpredictable.You’ll discover:Why green food sources, water edges, and fresh acorns matter more as crops dry downHow to read trail camera photos differently when a buck only shows up at nightWhen an observation sit is more valuable than a “normal” huntHow harvested fields can suddenly make deer feel exposedWhat small-property hunters should do with the early season vs. the rutWhy access, wind, and scent control matter even more as cover thins outDan also shares a real-world strategy for hunting his best spots earlier than usual this year, while Jason pushes the conversation toward practical judgment - when to pressure a property, when to let it cool off, and how to keep from burning out your best ground. They also touch on a critical mistake many hunters make: obsessing over strategy while neglecting shooting practice, effective range, and gear prep before season hits.This is essential listening if you hunt whitetails in the Midwest, manage small parcels, or want to tighten up your September-to-October strategy before the woods change again. If you want to be ready when the deer shift, this episode will help you make smarter decisions the next time you step into the timber.Our Sponsors:* Check out MyBookie and use my code SE for a great deal: https://www.mybookie.ag* Check out Nathan and Sons at https://nathanandsons.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  We Do This Too - From The Vault: How It Started vs What It Became 07.09.2026 1t 15min

  Y’all are always asking me and Trey how we got started in podcasting, what the early days looked like, what we struggled with, and how we went from just having an idea to actually building something people listen to.Well… we already had that conversation. So instead of making another episode telling the same story, I’m bringing THIS one back.In this episode, Trey Reed and I sit down and get real about our journeys as podcasters—from the early days of recording with limited gear, figuring out what the hell we were doing, finding our voices, building an audience, dealing with doubt, and learning what it really takes to keep showing up.There were plenty of moments where we wondered if it was even worth it.Looking back now, it’s crazy to see how far both platforms have come.This episode is a reminder that you don't have to have it all figured out when you start. You just have to start—and keep going.If you’ve ever asked, “How did y’all get into podcasting?”Our Sponsors:* Check out MyBookie and use my code SE for a great deal: https://www.mybookie.ag* Check out Nathan and Sons at https://nathanandsons.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  Man Therapy - Mental Breakdowns & The Clancy Case 07.09.2026 1t 5min

  A child murder case, a psychotic break, and a question nobody wants to answer: when does a broken mind become a crime that can never be forgiven?Dan and Kyle get into the Lindsay Clancy trial and the uncomfortable line between mental illness, accountability, and public outrage. What starts as a conversation about a headline-grabbing case quickly turns into something bigger - postpartum depression, psychosis, medication, the limits of the justice system, and how far a person can fall before anyone notices.You'll hear Dan and Kyle unpack the details of the case, the role of postpartum mental health, and why so many people are reacting so strongly. They break down how psychotic episodes can distort reality, why suicidal and homicidal crises are so hard to assess, and what makes one person’s breaking point different from another’s. Kyle shares firsthand experience as a psychotherapist, including what it looks like when someone is truly detached from reality and why getting help is often more complicated than it sounds.We also get into the hardest questions in the episode: how the system handles people in crisis, why some warning signs are missed, and what happens when a story like this becomes a public rallying point. Dan pushes on the moral side of the case, while Kyle explains the clinical side, including risk assessment, psychosis, and the reality of involuntary commitment.If you’re drawn to true-crime cases, psychology, or the messy space where law, medicine, and human behavior collide, this is a sharp, unsettling conversation that will stay with you long after it ends.Head to www.mybookie.ag, use promo code [SE], and get in on the action today.
