Forget The Rules: The things that constantly mess up your chances in the deer woods...

[@andypennington2098]

I have a wife and 4 kids so when he was talking about making family top priority, i felt that. I dont travel and hunt, but i try to hunt every chance i get, and im extremely blessed to have a wife that doesnt suck and allows me to enjoy hunting. It can be tough sometimes because i know there are times when she really would rather me not hunt but she knows i only get so many days because of work and if im successful that means meat in the freezer and with 4 kids we need a lot! I also really like his midset of just go hunt. No cameras, no corn, just go get in the woods and hunt. Thats how i was taught to hunt by my daddy and i find more joy hunting that way than hunting over a feeder.

[@macb9009]

I really appreciate your podcasts, as a new hunter in the past couple years in NC. I’ve only harvested 1 buck on public land, it’s the only deer I’ve gotten period. He was a 2 year old w a broken antler, a 6 point as he was but was prob a 8 point. I pretty much only have the option to hunt on public. But these podcasts have been great information and have really helped me understand what I need todo and look for. I plan on buying some trail cams to locate and scout deer. Appreciate y’all

[@theconsciouscorgi2103]

This was a powerful podcast, best one I’ve heard yet. Not enough guys talk about the three things you need to actually be successful and that is time, money, and support. I have a 10 month old and I felt this one for sure, my wife knows I love hunting but doesn’t understand it but I try like hell to do everything I can to make sure she is good when I’m gone for a day or even just an afternoon. Racks on the wall won’t be there for you when you need support the most , but a wife and kids will, so set your priorities right

[@FloridaBlackwater]

Talking about the importance of prioritizing your family and life over hunting✅. A conversation that you don’t hear much about!

[@JonathanVickery-k9d]

I’d have to say that’s prob one the best I’ve listen of all the ones y’all have put out. Being blessed to have a wife that loves to hunt also and supports me doing it, this still gives a humbling feeling and I had to tell her thank you for supporting my passion.

[@thesouthernoutdoorsmen]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@lukedecker357]

Love this episode. Really hits home I’m a husband and father of 3 youngins. tons of great advice. Thanks guys keep it up. 100% right on brother

[@thesouthernoutdoorsmen]

We are glad you enjoyed it and we appreciate you being a part of the community!

[@timothyjackson3094]

In my opinion, one of the best down to earth episodes you’ve done. I’m a hunter from SWVA and he talks about some much that is relatable hunting our area and what hunting has become. Is there a way you can post his tag his podcast, it’ll be my #2 right behind yours!

[@thesouthernoutdoorsmen]

@@timothyjackson3094 a link to his podcast is in the video description!

[@thewhitedfarm]

Enjoyed the entire episode. I commented on a short from this on your page, so I won’t say the same thing again, but all I can is I’m thankful I married a man who shares the same passion as I do with being outdoors. We bought 120 HEAVILY wooded and mountainous acres in WV and we take turns going up to the blinds, and on Thanksgiving we’ll send all the males to hunt together while the kids all stay back with the Moms. The amount of riding we have, room for our kids to build and raise their families, etc. Land isn’t cheap, but it is far more superior to any amount of material debt most of our society continues to bleed themselves dry from. This is a podcast I’d let my boys watch, by the way, and our kids don’t have KZbin privileges at all!

[@Matt-ti7ip]

I’m happy that there’s more “go out and hunt” talk going on now and less “cell cam cell cam cell cam”

[@jasonknight1660]

One of the best so far

[@brianboggs3123]

100 percent agree with the early season cold front statement. I have noticed it for several years in Southeastern Ky. An unseasonably cold temp drop will stifle movement. I have also noticed a lot of midday movement early in September during the hottest parts of the day.

[@wnek45]

8:23 this speaks volumes to me as a newer public land hunter. I can see where i go wrong. I can find all the little scrubs and never get on the biggun. Learning those buck trails and secondary thick edges is nearly impossible to me. I'm to focused on the doe trails and not looking deeper.

[@brianbrady9475]

This is the only one I have sat and watched the whole thing.

[@thesouthernoutdoorsmen]

Well we hope you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

I live in central NC and he is spot on the wind has not been what they say not one time this year..

[@MIDGARD_HUNTSMAN]

Get him back on after the season. Dudes awesome.

[@chadreed4001]

Real information...Straight Talk...Great podcast!

[@revskull]

Honestly, as an Arkansawyer, he’s speaking my language. In Arkansas, we’re fortunate to have everything from the Ozark and Quachita Mountains, ag land, to the Mississippi delta. A lot of South Arkansas is timber plantation. But hunting the mountains is just like that, you are wasting your time worrying so much about the wind, and focus on where deer appear ‘active’, not their bedroom.

[@sethmatherne7012]

Man, that was a really good podcast. I don't remember a podcast that wasn't, but this one stood above most of the others for real life and for killing those goats.

[@WoodsWalkinLYF]

Going off feeling…man..boys..sometimes, you just get that gut feeling, that voice in your head that says “sit here, this is the spot”…most of the time, when I listen to that voice, I’ll see deer and often harvest one. Gotta trust the intuition ladies and gents.

Serious question: What is the deal with the roses? Seems out of place for dudes talking about hunting. Did one of your wives think it looked nice? 😂

“No map has ever killed a deer” while I’m looking at a map that I’ve stared at for hours the last 3 months. 😂

It works for me so keep doing what you do!

[@blurp6023]

Alright, so I'm done deer hunting. Thanks for the clarification.

[@stevenberta940]

No corn pile. 😊

Them deer are Alabamians just like us. Hahaha

[@NorthAlabamaOutdoorSportsmen]

Great video

[@brandonhackett9675]

ALABAMA DEER.... They dont like the cold cold... For years I too thought that cold weather would be a lark but I have almost never seen deer early morning in Alabama if its below freezing by 3 or 4 degrees

[@SoloDogmanApalach850]

What area

[@orrenlilly5809]

It takes money to either buy shit loads of land or a lease. Most people don't know people with both of those that let them hunt private.

Big old bucks let u walk right by them and slip away backside... lol haha 🤣 u cant teach this stuff u gotta live it.

[@Lewisdovefam]

I had that happen to me like 2 weeks ago and I've never felt more stupid it was literally after he blew at me I decided to sit down got up about an hour and a half later walk forward like 20 yards and he ran behind me he was just more patient than me but you live and you learn

[@Derrek4Real]

@johnrfrost he'll yea brother.. as soon as u make eye contact it's game over..

[@Derrek4Real]

@johnrfrost BTW that was ur intuition telling u to sit there. Most ppl don't listen to it.

[@Derrek4Real]

@johnrfrost food for thought also. Most first timers and noobies hunt in spots most seasoned hunters wouldn't sit...

[@bubba8518]

We were pushing a small piece of land several years ago when I was a little kid. I was spread out with the walkers (with no gun) and we got about halfway thru the walk and we looked behind us and a giant old brute of a 10 point got up from a brush pile right next to where I walked and ran out backwards away from Us. I walked right next to that sucker I’ll never forget. I would’ve had to kick him up like a quail or pheasant hunkered down.

[@tacticalwhitetailmappingso5118]

Imma say this an it will make people mad… we are all probably a little to obsessed with deer… but when this dude said I’m close to God and I find him more in tree stand I felt bad for him… know maybe idk the whole story… but just from listening to him he came off as the deer is his God… not Christ… if you as a Christian say and profess this but never take ur family to church never read ur bible and teach it to ur family u do not know God… if we have to sacrifice our relationship with God to be successful it ain’t worth that price fellas never will be…

[@GRACEVENTURES]

Anything can become a "god" in your life. Including deer. If your can make it to the woods a couple times a week but can't make it to church. It's clear who's "god" in your life. Note I used a lower case g....

[@tacticalwhitetailmappingso5118]

@@GRACEVENTURES totally agree… I pray against those things and work hard to know the word and teach my family the word as the Lord commands… I’m not perfect but it’s my desire

[@revskull]

I wouldn’t ‘obsess’ over what other people find peace in..that’s judgement, don’t do that

[@GRACEVENTURES]

No one's obsessing over it

[@tacticalwhitetailmappingso5118]

@@revskull no one is obsessing… just pointing out what could be going on… as Christians we should help others including professing brothers strive to be biblically sound… u will never find in the Bible were it is ok to have peace apart from Christ… he is the vine and we are the branch… if we abide in him he abides in us… what looks like judgement to u is me simply saying hey I wouldn’t do this… his own wife questions his love for her bc of deer…so if he only finds god as he calls it in the woods then does he really have a relationship with him… God is a jealous God u can’t serve 2 masters… this isn’t judgement it’s a warning… I really hope the guy didn’t chose his words correctly and we are reading too much into it… but I know many like him and they never step foot in a church..
