Wisconsin Sportsman - What I Learned Hunting Late-Season Bucks

On this episode of The Wisconsin Sportsman, Pierce flies solo to recap a snowy 5-day public land hunt chasing late-season bucks! If you listened to last year's "What I Learned Hunting A Public Land Giant", consider this the sequel. Pierce recaps the lessons learned from still hunting a new piece of public land, and how he adapted a minimalist approach to simply hunting where the deer sign told him, and where the terrain allowed him. Be prepared to hear about a couple of encounters with huge bucks and what they did to stay alive near the end of a long hunting season, and hear what was going through Pierce's mind as he encountered everything on this long, winter hunt.  Thank you all for making 2025 such a phenomenal year! This was far and away the best year yet, and that's all thanks to those of you who tune in every week. Have a happy new year and we'll talk to you all in 2026!   Big thanks to our fantastic partners: Lone Wolf Custom Gear: www.lonewolfcustomgear.com onX Hunt: www.onxmaps.com Huntworth: www.huntworthgear.com Good Chance Fly Fishing: www.goodchanceflyfishing.com Wisconsin Backcountry Hunters & Anglers: www.backcountryhunters.org/wisconsin TAKE ACTION THROUGH BACKCOUNTRY HUNTERS & ANGLERS www.backcountryhunters.com/take_action Call the US Capitol Switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and ask to speak with your representative Learn more about your ad choices.
