Ep. 34 Tagging Mature Bucks CONSISTENTLY! - with Kelsey Moss

  In this episode of The Hunting Dad Podcast, I sit down with accomplished public-land bowhunter Kelsey Moss for an honest conversation about what it really takes to consistently find and kill mature bucks. Kelsey shares his incredible 2025 season, breaking down each of his four trophy bucks—from urban velvet deer and Tennessee public land to a successful DIY Georgia mountain hunt. Along the way, he explains his scouting process, trail camera strategy, hunting pressure, terrain analysis, and why eliminating where other hunters are likely to be has become one of his biggest keys to success. The conversation also dives into kudzu hunting, calling mature bucks, mobile hunting tactics, learning from missed opportunities, overcoming buck fever, and developing the mental discipline needed to execute when the moment finally arrives. Whether you're chasing your first mature buck or looking to become a more efficient public-land hunter, this episode is packed with practical hunting knowledge, plenty of laughs, and stories every deer hunter can appreciate.
