    Two SKINNY 40's - The Painted Arrow Podcast Ep. 217

    In this episode, Nate and Devin are back behind the mic giving a good old-fashioned farm update on their hunting properties in Southern Michigan. Both farms are 40-acre, long and skinny pieces, which makes things interesting when you’re trying to figure out how to consistently hunt mature whitetails without blowing the whole place out.They talk through what they’ve been working on lately—from habitat improvements and food plots to access, pressure, and the extensive storm damage that this year brought. It’s a real, no-BS look at what’s working, what’s not, and what they’re planning to tweak heading into the season.If you’re dealing with small acreage or just enjoy hearing a couple of Michigan hunters break down real-world whitetail strategy, this one’s for you. It’s equal parts hunting talk, lessons learned, and a little back-and-forth that’ll feel like you’re sitting in the room with them.
