634 - Hunting high rut funnels with Ryan Elders

Today, we are joined by Ryan Elders, a public land hunter from the mountains of North Carolina! Ryan has honed his craft when it comes to targeting mature bucks on public ground in the big woods, mountain settings that he hunts. Subjects include: - Finding pockets of where all the deer are living - Finding high rut funnels - Staying away from the "night sign" - How to know if buck sign was made at night - Dealing with the wind in areas where it ALWAYS swirls - The woodsmanship lessons he learned from his father and other older hunters - Why understanding deer behavior is more important than any kind of buck sing - Focus on food or bedding? and tons more!
