The Evolution of Woodsmanship | HUNTR Podcast #144
In this episode of HUNTR Podcast, the guys sit down and talk about the evolution of woodsmanship. Having experience in the woods and developing your skills as a woodsman is so important and such a helpful skillset to have when you're chasing big bucks. Learning the ways of the outdoors, the habitat and environment deer live in, gaining observation, paying attention to wind and weather patterns, etc. It all gets put in your back pocket to use when you're in the woods hunting for your target animal. We also discuss the perspective and relative meaning of "big" deer. While being in the game for mature bucks is always the goal, it's more about the hunting experience and the journey of the season.

The Reality of Hunting Public w/ Aaron Warbritton | HUNTR Podcast #140
In this episode of HUNTR Podcast, we're joined by returning guest Aaron Warbritton from The Hunting Public to discuss the good, bad, and the ugly of public land hunting. If you're a frequent listener of the show, you know how often we talk about public land hunting and the many issues it brings to the hunting experience. We often ask ourselves why? Is it because all of the leased ground is full and there's nowhere else to hunt? Is it because it's being promoted on social media? Or is it due to the lack of state regulation? At the end of the day, hunters just want the same thing. A good hunting experience for everyone across the board. How do we get there?

The Dark Side of Hunting Media w/ Matt Rinella | HUNTR Podcast #136
In this episode of HUNTR Podcast, things get a little controversial as we bring on Dr. Matt Rinella of the Hunt Quietly Podcast. As most of you guys know, we're not afraid to tackle the issues going on in the hunting world today. Our message has always been to talk about the things people aren't talking about, going into every conversation with an open-mind and open-thought process. One thing we've been talking about lately is how the opportunity for hunters is creating bad hunting experiences. There are many reasons for that, one being the media platforms pushing out hunting content and how that is influencing modern day hunting. Matt expresses why the overuse of social media and hunting entertainment creates bad experiences for hunters. Tune in as we talk with Matt to better understand his "Hunt Quietly" motto.

Everything Timber w/ Madison Raber | IBAF #13
We're back with another episode of "I Bought A Farm" with Madison Raber to talk all things timber. Madison has a lot of knowledge when it comes to timber consulting as he has been doing so for years under his business Treestand Forestry. As a land owner, it can be confusing when it comes to land management. Trying to understand the right way to set up your property for whitetail success is something we all strive for. When it comes to timber, you want to make sure you have the right information. Maybe you don't know how much your timber value is, or what steps you need to take for selling timber on your property. You might ask yourself what's the best deal? How do I know what's good timber and what's not? How can I create better access for my property? Luckily Madison has the answer to that.

Killing Giant Bucks Without Trail Cameras w/ Cody D'Acquisto | HUNTR Podcast #134
In this episode of HUNTR Podcast, we bring on special guest Cody D'Acquisto, who knows a thing or two about killing giant bucks. Being the son of Andrea D'Acqusto, whitetail hunting has been rooted in him from a young age. Working for Lone Wolf Custom Gear, Cody is the type of guy that lives and breathes whitetail hunting. The passion and pursuit of chasing mature bucks is something we can relate on. Cody, unlike many hunters today, focuses more on the experience and the observation of the hunt, rather than relying on new technology for whitetail success. We talk about it all the time, how new hunting technology, whether that be trail cams, hunting apps, or new weapons, makes you more efficient at killing deer. What isn't talked about as often, is the negative effect it has on the hunting experience. How often are trail cameras making the decision for you whether or not to hunt a spot? It's easy to get caught up in, but what keeps us going is the struggle. Sometimes you have to take a step back and think "what got me to where I'm at today?" Spending time in the woods, reading sign, learning how deer live day-to-day, and ultimately being a mobile hunter. That's what we're here to talk about today with Cody...

Between Bowmar Archery & Bowmar Nutrition, Josh has quite the following as a social media influencer. He opens up about what life is like behind the scenes of being a hot target in the outdoor space, and how he overcomes adversity to continue to be one of the most successful hunting personalities on the web. With that being said, this episode is filled with great conversation as we talk the pursuit of mature bucks, the secret to 200's, the evolution of hunting content, bow setups, and more.

Summer Farming, Drawing for Kansas, and the Rise of Bowhunting | HUNTR Podcast #130
In this episode of HUNTR Podcast, the guys sit down to talk about their summer farming progress heading into another whitetail season.
