Ep. 40 From the South to the Midwest: What Actually Works for Whitetails! -Jacob Myers

from The Hunting Dad Podcast

In this episode of The Hunting Dad Podcast, I got to sit down with my great friend, Jacob Myers from The Southern Outdoorsman podcast to talk about one of the biggest challenges facing hunters who travel from the South to the Midwest — figuring out what information to actually trust. From scent elimination and access to stand placement, wind, public-land tactics and everything in between, Midwest whitetail hunting comes with no shortage of opinions. The problem is, a lot of those opinions conflict with one another. We dive into how hunters can sort through all that information, determine what actually matters, and develop a system that fits the way they hunt instead of constantly chasing the latest tactic or piece of advice. We also talk about the differences between hunting Southern whitetails and Midwest deer, what makes the transition challenging, and how conversations through The Southern Outdoorsman have helped them learn from hunters with completely different experiences and approaches.    Use code huntingdad at hawke optics to save 15% at checkout!
