  Western Rookie - Montana Elk Hunting SUCCESS 13.11.2026 54m

  On this episode of the Western Rookie Podcast, Dan welcomes Graham Cronin to share the story of his first elk hunt—a long-held dream for a Midwest bowhunter. Graham drew a Montana general tag with zero preference points and headed west for a hunt that would quickly become one of his most memorable.Graham talks about getting ready for a new kind of hunt: building on gear from previous western deer trips, practicing his bow, and learning from an experienced friend who knew the area. The group covered mountain terrain, glassed for elk, and tried to read their movements, calls, wind and thermals. Even with elk around, getting them to respond—and closing the distance—wasn’t easy.On the second evening, fresh sign led the hunters up a mountainside. After a bull finally answered, Graham got a close shot opportunity in thick evergreens. He shares the nerves of not seeing the arrow’s impact, following the bull through the timber, and the relief of finding him after a long tracking effort.The hunt’s excitement continued with a late-night packout, processing the meat, and an unexpected truck breakdown in Billings. Graham reflects on finally living out a childhood dream and why the experience has him eager to hunt elk again.Our Sponsors:* Check out KUIU: https://www.kuiu.com* Check out MyBookie and use my code SE for a great deal: https://www.mybookie.agAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  N.F.C. - Catching Up With Fred Eichler 13.11.2026 58m

  On this episode of Wasp Week, Dan Johnson sits down with longtime bowhunter, guide and outfitter Fred Eichler for a wide-ranging conversation about a life shaped by archery and adventure. Fred shares how he moved from Florida to Colorado, learned the trade in archery shops, and set his sights on the North American Super Slam. He also recalls a self-guided Alaska caribou hunt with his recurve—and the close calls that come with hunting big game around the world.Dan and Fred talk about what technology has changed in hunting, why Fred believes hunters should keep practical outdoor skills sharp, and how hard work can still open doors on public land. They discuss the pressure to chase bigger trophies and make the case for centering hunting on the experience, time outdoors, wildlife management and putting healthy meat in the freezer. Plus, Fred tells the unforgettable story of an alligator grabbing his knee—and explains why the challenge and close encounters are what keep him bowhunting.Our Sponsors:* Check out KUIU: https://www.kuiu.com* Check out MyBookie and use my code SE for a great deal: https://www.mybookie.agAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  Deep In The Hunt Of Texas - Mule Deer Preview and Whitetail Week 12.11.2026 1h 24m

  Connor Little and James Jordan discuss the start of deer season and their upcoming hunting trips. Connor says he has hunted only a handful of times so far, partly because of work changes and warm weather. Neither feels the rut is fully underway yet, and they talk about how conditions around Bowie can affect deer movement: in their experience, warm weather can keep deer tucked away and less active in daylight, while cooler temperatures make for better hunting. They share small opening-weekend stories, including the sound of nearby rifle shots and reports of several large bucks taken by people they know.A major focus is the trips ahead. James is looking forward to returning to Bowie, even though he has not hunted much this year and is only beginning to feel excited. Connor is preparing for his first western hunt, a New Mexico mule deer trip with Parker. He describes being unsure what the terrain and access will be like, wanting to be prepared, and expecting mild but cooler weather. He may have a chance to bowhunt, but Parker will have first choice; if the group is not seeing deer, they joke about switching to coyotes. They also plan a Bowie outing afterward, hope to fit in a duck hunt, and consider bringing golf equipment for downtime.The conversation wanders into golf, casino stories, rising everyday costs, hunting supplies, and local food stops. These sections are mostly personal anecdotes and banter; they return several times to the friends’ shared hunting plans and memories.Our Sponsors:* Check out KUIU: https://www.kuiu.com* Check out MyBookie and use my code SE for a great deal: https://www.mybookie.agAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  Bama Wall Hangers - Hunting, Fishing, and Drone Recovery 12.11.2026 1h 7m

  Brad Bowen along with co-host Tucker and Sawyer welcome outdoorsman Joseph Webster to Bama Wallhangers. The conversation opens with Webster's professional bass-fishing career, which began after he qualified through a tournament and moved through the FLW, MLF, and Bassmasters circuits. He describes fishing as a lifelong interest and talks about the demands of travel and sponsorships. He recalls losing a potential $100,000 prize by a few ounces. He favors Smith Lake and spinnerbaits, and says modern forward-facing sonar can change anglers' habits and become frustrating.The group then turns to hunting and tree-stand safety, after Webster mentions friends who recently fell from stands. They discuss wearing a harness and Webster's own experience of seeing a climbing stand's bottom slide away. They also cover the need for care at height. The hosts share stories about missed deer, difficult shots, and the challenge of recovering wounded animals.Webster explains how he moved from professional fishing toward drone work after getting a pilot's license. He now uses thermal drones to locate wounded deer and supports agricultural work with spraying and spreading. He shares recovery statistics from his first season and describes how canopy, weather, and flight angles affect searches. He recounts memorable calls, including finding a deer that had been shot but was still walking and helping track down a runaway cow. The conversation also touches on property boundaries, asking permission, and being respectful when flying over neighboring land.The episode closes with talk of outdoor work and local hunting. Webster says he is willing to travel for deer-recovery calls and encourages hunters to let an animal settle before searching, so they do not push it farther away. He shares observations about deer bedding and feeding in crop fields, mentions his drone services and how to find them online, and reflects on the unusual stories that come with working outdoors. The hosts thank him, give sponsor acknowledgments, and invite him back for another conversation.Our Sponsors:* Check out KUIU: https://www.kuiu.com* Check out MyBookie and use my code SE for a great deal: https://www.mybookie.agAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  Huntavore - Don't Panic 12.11.2026 19m

  The November deer woods can test your patience. The sightings are there, the opportunities seem to be slipping away, and the pressure to fill a tag starts to build. In this episode of Huntavore, we're talking about something every hunter experiences at one time or another: the frustration of a hunting season that isn't going according to plan.Don't panic. It's easy to let unsuccessful hunts, social media success stories, and the shrinking calendar get inside your head. But a successful hunting season isn't defined by the animal you bring home. It's about the experiences, lessons, adjustments, and memories made along the way. We'll talk about keeping perspective, controlling what you can control, and remembering one important word: YET.Then we head into the kitchen for a seasonal twist on a family favorite: venison-style hamburger helper with a roasted butternut squash sauce. Inspired by Matt Boussard (@acooknamedmatt), this dish takes a familiar comfort food and gives it a seasonal makeover with roasted vegetables, savory seasoning, and plenty of room for wild game.In This EpisodeDon't Panic in the Deer Woods: Dealing with the pressure and frustration of a slow hunting season without making decisions you'll regret.Don't Let Success Define You: Why another hunter's big buck shouldn't determine how you feel about your own season.Control What You Can Control: Staying focused, being observant, adjusting stand locations, and making the most of every opportunity in the woods.Finding Success Beyond the Harvest: Lessons learned, time spent outdoors, family experiences, and even the opportunity to pursue a new species.The Power of Yet: Changing "I haven't gotten a deer" to "I haven't gotten a deer yet." A small change in perspective can make a big difference.From the Woods to the Kitchen: Turning a familiar family meal into something new with a seasonal butternut squash sauce. From the Kitchen: Butternut Squash Hamburger HelperThis isn't your traditional hamburger helper. Instead of a cheese-based sauce, we're building a rich, savory sauce around roasted butternut squash, charred onion, and bell pepper.The process is simple:Roast butternut squash until tender.Char an onion and bell pepper to develop deeper flavor.Steam and peel the pepper before blending.Blend the roasted vegetables with broth and olive oil until smooth.Season with salt, cayenne, and nutmeg.Combine with browned ground meat and your favorite pasta.Finish with Parmesan cheese and grated cured egg yolk.Use venison burger, turkey burger, or whatever ground meat you have available. Spiral pasta works particularly well because all those nooks and crannies hold onto the sauce.It's a family-friendly, seasonal meal that comes together in about 30–45 minutes.Recipe inspiration: Matt Boussard – Instagram @acooknamedmatt. Check out his Substack for the full recipe and instructions.The TakeawayHunting is full of things we cannot control. We can't make deer show up, guarantee an opportunity, or force a successful harvest. What we can control is our attitude, preparation, decisions, and willingness to learn.So don't let frustration dictate your season. Don't compare your journey to someone else's highlight reel. Keep showing up, make adjustments, enjoy the experience, and remember that three little letters can change everything.You haven't gotten your deer YET.Thanks for listening to Huntavore! Whether you're chasing whitetails, learning a new hunting skill, or finding creative ways to put wild game on the dinner table, keep enjoying the journey.And remember, keep your knives sharp and your perspective sharper.I can also put together a shorter, SEO-friendly episode description for Apple Podcasts and Spotify to accompany these show notes. Our Sponsors:* Check out KUIU: https://www.kuiu.com* Check out MyBookie and use my code SE for a great deal: https://www.mybookie.agAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  How To Hunt Deer - Peak RUT Hunting Strategy 11.11.2026 1h 11m

  Dan J. and Jason T. catch up on the November rut and the realities shaping their hunting season. They talk trail-camera strategy, what cameras can—and can’t—tell you about the bucks nearby, and how terrain can help hunters decide where to focus their efforts.Standing crops are another big part of the conversation. The guys weigh how corn can provide deer with food and cover while also keeping them tucked away on ground hunters may not be able to access. When crops come out, deer movement can shift quickly.Jason shares how work, family, and an upcoming knee surgery are limiting his time in the woods. He’s making room for one dedicated rut hunt, but says taking his kids hunting—and helping them enjoy their own success—matters most.With Veterans Day marking a favorite stretch of the season, Dan and Jason discuss making the most of the days ahead, including all-day sits and decoys. It’s an honest conversation about chasing the rut while balancing hunting with everything else life demands.Our Sponsors:* Check out KUIU: https://www.kuiu.com* Check out MyBookie and use my code SE for a great deal: https://www.mybookie.agAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  Pennsylvania Sportsman - The Older I Get, the More Hunting Means 11.11.2026 1h 7m

  In this episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman, Mitch welcomes Ron Hartman, father of Axel Hartman from Rack Daddies Hunting and Fishing, for a conversation about a lifetime of hunting, family, and Pennsylvania deer camp traditions. Growing up around a family hunting camp in Potter County, Ron developed an appreciation for the outdoors that eventually became an important part of raising his own children. He shares memories of introducing Axel and his daughter Maggie to hunting, balancing a demanding career with family responsibilities, and watching his passion for the outdoors take on a different meaning as he grew older. Along the way, Ron recounts some memorable hunts, including a snowy rifle season with his kids, doubling up on bucks with Axel, and an unforgettable encounter with the biggest buck of his life.As the conversation continues, Mitch and Ron reflect on how hunting priorities change through different stages of life. From chasing bucks during the rut to introducing grandchildren to the outdoors, Ron explains why spending time with family and friends has become more rewarding than simply filling a tag. The two discuss the camaraderie of deer camp, the traditions surrounding Pennsylvania's rifle season, and the challenge of balancing limited hunting time with work and family. They also explore how filming hunts can preserve memories and share an appreciation for wildlife beyond the harvest. Ultimately, this episode is a reminder that hunting is about more than the animals we pursue—it's about the people we share it with, the traditions we carry forward, and the memories that last a lifetime.Our Sponsors:* Check out KUIU: https://www.kuiu.com* Check out MyBookie and use my code SE for a great deal: https://www.mybookie.agAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  Old Camp Road - My First Deer 11.11.2026 29m

  In Episode 2 of The Old Camp Road, I take you back to when I was 12 years old and tell the story of the hunt that started it all — my first deer. It was a trip with my dad to hunt Army Corps land during the Georgia rut, and it became one of those experiences that has stuck with me for the rest of my life.This episode is about more than filling a tag. It’s about being a young hunter, learning the woods, experiencing the rut for the first time, and sharing a hunting tradition with my dad that would help shape my love for the outdoors. It’s a look back at where my deer hunting journey began and another story from down The Old Camp Road.Our Sponsors:* Check out KUIU: https://www.kuiu.com* Check out MyBookie and use my code SE for a great deal: https://www.mybookie.agAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  Old Camp Road - Old Camp Road Introduction 10.11.2026 19m

  In the first episode of The Old Camp Road, we head back to where a lifetime of hunting memories began — an old hunting camp in Central Georgia. I share the story of my first weekend at the club at 15 years old, hunting alongside my dad and uncle during a rare Georgia snow. From sitting in a ladder stand with a borrowed .45-70 to following my first blood trail through the snow, that weekend helped shape my love for hunting and the outdoors.But The Old Camp Road is about more than the animals we bring home. It’s about the places, people, traditions, and stories that stay with us. More than 25 years later, that same dirt road, old camp, pond, and brick chimney are still part of my family’s story — only now I get to watch my own boys make memories there. Episode 1 is where that story begins, and where I introduce what The Old Camp Road is all about: hunting, fishing, family, and keeping the outdoor traditions of the South alive.Our Sponsors:* Check out KUIU: https://www.kuiu.com* Check out MyBookie and use my code SE for a great deal: https://www.mybookie.agAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  Wisconsin Sportsman - Rally for the Rut! 10.11.2026 46m

  On this episode of The Wisconsin Sportsman, Pierce flies solo again to deliver a rallying cry for all of us still running around with tags in our pockets now that the "best" day of the rut is behind us! Whitetail hunters know all to well the weight of an unpunched tag in your pocket, and in an age of social media and constant communication, it can feel like everyone is killing deer except you. The mid to late part of the rut is arguably the most psychologically trying part of the deer season, because by now we've all had enough time to screw something up, we're all tired, and we're all having to rely fully on the fact that a big buck can come by at literally any moment and we just have to be there and be lucky. But our minds and attitudes are our sharpest weapons this time of year, and we all can use a pep talk from time to time to stay after it. That's what this episode is: a long-winded voicemail to you all to keep your chin up, control what you can control, and stay positive because if you don't believe it'll happen, it won't!Big thanks to our fantastic partners:Hoksey Native Seeds: www.hokseynativeseeds.comLone Wolf Custom Gear: www.lonewolfcustomgear.comonX Hunt: www.onxmaps.comHuntworth: www.huntworthgear.comGood Chance Fly Fishing: www.goodchanceflyfishing.comWisconsin Backcountry Hunters & Anglers: www.backcountryhunters.org/wisconsinOur Sponsors:* Check out KUIU: https://www.kuiu.com* Check out MyBookie and use my code SE for a great deal: https://www.mybookie.agAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  Antler Up - Don't Lose Sight of Why You Started 05.11.2026 20m

  In this solo episode, Jeremy takes a step back to reflect on his hunting season so far, including his recent trip to Ohio, the experiences along the way, and what's still ahead as November unfolds. From time in unfamiliar woods to the anticipation of the weeks ahead, it's a reminder that hunting has always been about more than filling a tag. It's about the experiences, the challenges, the people, and the memories that keep us coming back year after year.Jeremy also dives into something that applies well beyond hunting: the importance of doing what you love and not losing sight of why you started in the first place. Between hunting, fitness, family, and the everyday demands of life, it's easy to get caught up in the pressure to constantly produce, perform, and keep moving. Sometimes the most important thing you can do is slow down, appreciate the opportunities in front of you, and remember that the experience itself is what matters most. Don't lose sight of why you started.

  Bama Wall Hangers - BWH talks with Dan Johnson 05.11.2026 1h 4m

  This episode of Bama Wall Hangers is recorded at Bowen Taxidermy. Host Brad Bowen is solo in the studio, with his son Tucker out deer hunting and Sawyer at home resting from football practice. His remote guest is Dan Johnson of the Nine Finger Chronicles on the Sportsman's Empire Podcast Network. Brad credits Dan as a big reason the show exists. He heard Dan on another podcast in late spring or early summer, messaged him on Instagram asking who he listened to, and was encouraged on a phone call to just try starting a podcast.Dan describes his hunting life in Iowa and the places he has lived. He explains Iowa's seasons, including a long archery season through November with no gun season that month, and says only about six or seven percent of the state is timber. He shares a story of getting lost for eight or nine hours while turkey hunting in Bankhead National Forest in Alabama around 2005. The two compare notes on baiting permits in Alabama, the long Alabama rut, bow setups, tree stands and favorite hunts. Dan names mule deer as the animal he's most excited about. Brad names a South Texas aoudad hunt as a dream hunt, and mentions Tucker's interest in a Maryland sika hunt.In the later part of the conversation, both hosts trade stories. Dan tells of chasing a once-in-a-generation buck he guessed at about 220 inches, then heading to his stand without his bow and never seeing the buck again. Brad tells of taking his young cousin hunting, where the rifle jammed as a deer walked in. He also tells of a friend who didn't show up for a hunt, which let Brad take the biggest buck of his life. Brad also explains the Memory Mount chip that lets a phone replay a hunt from a mount.The episode closes with shout-outs to sponsors King Kutter, the Fayette County co-op and Jeremy Alman. Dan encourages listeners to relax and enjoy hunting, since no one knows how many seasons they have left. Brad shares his appreciation for Dan and for the people the show has let him meet. He says one reply to a message started it all, so never downplay anyone. Brad asks Dan to send a picture if he gets a big deer, and they talk about doing another episode after the season to share the mistakes they made.Our Sponsors:* Check out KUIU: https://www.kuiu.com* Check out MyBookie and use my code SE for a great deal: https://www.mybookie.agAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
