From Summer Prep to When The Work REALLY Begins

from The Huntavore · host Nick Otto

The boys are back together! Co-host Dustin, and Public Land Warrior, Brock join Nick for a summer catch up. They talk about archery set up and summer projects getting ready for the fast upcoming Whitetail season in Michigan. Nick is sticking with his setup from last year that proved to be very effective. “If it ain't broke, don’t fix it”. Brock added a new sight to the mix as he and Dustin are headed to South Dakota in early October. Which has made Dustin get a new vertical bow for the trip. When asked about the Crossbow, he was adamant about it being used here in Michigan. Attention turns to walkthrough of what they are going to do after the shot. So much attention is given to the practice, scouting, and hunting prep (which it should), but here at the Huntavore we wanted to make sure folks were thinking about when the work really begins. Each hunter provides a bit of their own unique situation, and their personal approach to: field dressing, hanging and aging, Butchering and Processor relations, CWD precautions, and taxidermy awareness. Nick also reached out to a taxidermist and processor through text, and got some real info that you should be thinking about.

The gang's back together! Nick is joined by friends of the show, Dustin and Brock. Together they each have the same mission preparing for the upcoming deer season in Michigan, but take slightly different approaches. They run through their archery set ups and other summer time preparations. However, they don't stop there. While we prepare for the hunt and the moment of truth, we can’t forget about when the work actually begins. They look past the hunt, and after the shot to the “now what” part of having to get this animal home. The guys breakdown their process from field dress to freezer. Get your checklists ready, here we go.
