Better Deer Hunting Starts With This Change | HUNTR #316

from HUNTR · host HUNTR

In this episode of HUNTR Podcast, Eric Hansen (Just Hunt Club) joins us to break down proposed deer hunting regulation changes in New York and what they could mean for hunters everywhere. From earn-a-buck concepts to pushing more doe harvest, we dig into why deer populations feel out of balance and what it actually takes to fix it. We cover season structure, hunter behavior, the processing hurdle, and why most hunters avoid the very thing that could improve deer hunting long-term. Whether you agree or not, these are the conversations shaping the future of deer hunting. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.Learn more about the proposed changes:https://justhuntclub.com/pages/2026-27-ny-hunting-regulation-proposalhttps://dec.ny.gov/news/press-releases/2026/3/dec-announces-proposed-changes-to-hunting-regulations-to-increase-harvest-of-antlerless-deer00:00 Why Better Deer Hunting Isn’t Happening05:10 Spring Work That Actually Impacts Deer Season14:00 New York’s Proposed Hunting Changes20:30 The Real Problem With Deer Management28:00 Why Hunters Don’t Shoot Enough Does33:45 Earn-A-Buck: Does It Actually Work?42:00 Season Structure & Hunter Behavior50:00 Why Incentives Might Be the Fix58:00 The Processing Problem (After the Shot)01:03:30 Making Doe Hunting More Appealing01:12:00 One Buck State?
