Episode 83: Tracking and Hunting Deer in October with Shane Simpson

This week on Wild Faith, I’m joined by Shane Simpson — hunter, tracker, and founder of TRAKR — for a deep dive into early season bowhunting and deer recovery. We kick things off catching up on life and hearing about Shane’s first hunts of the year before getting into his background — from growing up hunting with family to tracking wounded deer each season with his dog, Callie. Shane shares insight on early-season whitetail patterns, the biggest mistakes bowhunters make in October, and how things like pressure and temperature affect movement. We also talk about how tracking has changed his approach to hunting, his dive into traditional archery, and what’s new with the TRAKR app that’s helping connect hunters and trackers across the country. If you’re into bowhunting, whitetails, deer tracking, or learning how tech and tradition come together in the woods, you’ll love this one.   👉 Be sure to LIKE, COMMENT, and SUBSCRIBE for more faith-driven hunting and outdoors content!   Wild Faith Podcast Links: Store: https://www.wildfaithpodcast.com/category/all-products Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wildfaith/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@wildfaithpodcast
