  • 707 - Early Season Hunting Q&A!
    2025/07/24
    This is a fun one! We asked you guys to send in questions on our social media accounts, and y'all delivered! In this episode, we are running through a long list of listener questions. Many of the questions have to do with early-season hunting and scrapes, while others focus on terrain features and more! In a food-rich environment, how do you narrow down the feed trees to hunt? How do you find bucks in October when they aren’t laying down much sign? How do you find deer sign in Piney Woods with little to no terrain features? Underrated tips for hunting public ground? Hunting funnels vs. hunting sign in the mountains — pros and cons? Early season — would you prioritize bedding areas, feed trees, or trails between the two? August 15th and it’s hot — kudzu patch in a creek bottom or just off an ag field’s edge? Found a buck coming to ag. Move in and scout the bedding or set up on the edge of the ag in September? Where do y’all usually find early season scrapes in pine/SMZ terrain for buck inventory? Do y’all have any examples of Piney Woods rut funnels? Have you seen more success scouting into an area and setting up on best sign, or scouting and then coming back later? What are the top three browse species deer prefer in the South? I’m a Florida hunter. I can find bucks but have trouble killing them with 4–6 day quota hunts. Any tips? What are some good terrain features or areas to find community scrapes in steep hill country? Where do you make mock scrapes and how do you make them? Straight wall cartridge or muzzleloader during alternate gun season? If straight wall, what is preferred? What’s the dream hunt for you guys? If you could only go on one more hunt, what would the hunt be and where? What are y’all’s rifle setups? How do you deal with the difficulty of leaving your kids/family to go on a hunting trip?
