Hill Country Bucks - Public Land Strategy, Buck Bedding, Mobile Hunting, and GIANT Sheds

In the past, I have been a terrible shed hunter. I always hear people say they never find sheds because they're "too focused on scouting," but this is not the case for me. I've looked for them, just can't seem to find them. Maybe I have been saving up all my shed luck over the years.
This was one of those days where everything seemed to go as planned. Deer were bedded where they were supposed to be, corresponding scrapes and scrape lines were present, buck rubs were where you want them to be, and the good buck beds were in spots that were actually huntable.
Yes, this is a video about a hunter getting lucky, but it does show examples of a lot of the key whitetail hunting strategies we all try to execute in the fall. If you're a newer hunter you might learn something, and if you're experienced, you will hopefully be entertained. Either way, thank you for watching!

Love how you guys actually pull up a map and show us what the deer are doing and why they are doing it along with land features and how they use them. not everyone shows those type of things in their videos but you guys do and its much appreciated by us viewers

[@latitudeoutdoors]

Thank you!

[@CMOutdoors23]

Awesome video men!

[@CJernigan30]

“Are we done? Time to go to the bar??” Talk about relatable 😂 loving the content

[@whitewood2000]

This is one of the best videos I've seen in terms of real world examples compiled with explaining things on a map, which I learn the best on. Great video.

[@latitudeoutdoors]

Thank you!

[@cjbradley8385]

These In Session videos really are most helpful ones I’ve seen for learning!

[@latitudeoutdoors]

Thank you! Let us know if there's ever any other info/guests you want to see!

Here's a follow up question regarding stand setup... You showed where, but where exactly? For bow hunting, are you sacrificing shot angle for thermals or vice versa when you're picking a tree and how high to climb? ie, morning hunt, rising thermals..is your tree uphill or downhill from his expected path, and why? I'm from Middle TN and just moved to northern/central KY and have ZERO experience with hills this steep. For example, my best stand is in the bottom, 10ft up on the climbing side, but 13ft up the shooting side. It's great until the leaves fall off. Would love to see a Part 2 video regarding setups on these examples. You guys (by FAR) have the best scouting content on YT.

[@YouTubeBuckTracker]

The scouting videos are excellent. Good job!

[@latitudeoutdoors]

Thank you!

[@chadsyl23]

Great episode fellas. The breakdown of each areas was phenomenal. Nice job with the edit Drock

[@latitudeoutdoors]

Thank you!

[@warnerhuntohio1129]

“We got em” bold bold statement in the big woods 😂. That’s awesome though, hard to beat finding sheds in the big woods after miles and miles of walking. People don’t realize how hard it can be. Looks like a high deer density area which could make it challenging to get to him. Good luck this year!

[@latitudeoutdoors]

Lol very true. Our attempt at being optimistic haha

[@BullmanOutdoors]

Outstanding Video! I don't have time to consume much content, but these videos will get on the schedule! Thanks for the priceless intel and good luck!

[@whitetail_geeks]

great content. another killer episode!!

[@david.6040]

Good stuff guys keep ‘em coming!

[@jigmaster7848]

I need that camo Latitude Outdoors hat… when you guys making more!?

[@TheHunter46176]

great video. you are on them for sure.

[@latitudeoutdoors]

Thank you! Hopefully we can execute in the fall. We’ll see.

[@jeremylazzaro3776]

Great video, absolutely enjoying these in session series videos. Keep them coming

[@latitudeoutdoors]

Thank you!!

[@SEEKN_SOLITUDE]

1st like and 1st comment! Hahaha great content and loving the series!

[@Arkie_Outdoors]

Great video. The cut ins to the maps was great.

[@latitudeoutdoors]

thank you!!

[@YoungAdventuresOutdoors]

Really enjoying your videos. Were you all scouting in season or post season (march-april)?

[@latitudeoutdoors]

Thank you! We scouted this piece in April, but 90% of our scouting is in season just because of limited time. Spring/summer scouting is extremely valuable in our opinion. Thanks for checking out the videos!

[@ronniewhite7414]

I've hunted this type of terrain sinct1977. I know a little. Excellent information. Heres the plan obliterating bomb . Hes laying under a while oak that's dropping acorns in his bed or within 30 yards. Stands up, stretches, and feeds til dark. Time for plan B

[@latitudeoutdoors]

Thank you! And I agree, that's probably what the big boy will be doing. Maybe we'll get lucky and have a bad acorn drop this year. I guess we'll cross that bridge when we get to it lol. Thanks for watching!

[@toddvb1]

What brand of trail camera's are you using?

[@toddlemasters]

Target rich environment

[@barrymartin6260]

When you guys scout and look for all the good sign like the scrapes including the hub scrapes and the beds are you concentrating on the spine of the points or the sides or are you checking the hollows for trails and beds on the upper third ? Or are you covering all of the area ? I scout by myself most of the time because you can't trust anybody...lol Thanks !

[@latitudeoutdoors]

Hey Barry, thanks for reaching out. I personally focus on the spines first. If the bottom of a spine has good sign (I like to see deer density more than anything), I work up from there to try and find a bed I think holds a buck. If I find a good bed, I try to find adjacent doe bedding, food, and a hub scrape (scrape is usually at the bottom of the spine but not always). If I find these 3 things I feel like I can throw a sit at it during any stage of the season. This is all dependent on how steep the terrain is though. The steeper it is, the more important the spines become in our experience. This is just how I attack it, there are some other approaches that work well for some guys I know. The In Session podcast has some great episodes with guys who do really well using other strategies. Good luck this season!

[@barrymartin6260]

@@latitudeoutdoors Thanks for responding ! I have watched every podcast and video you guys have put out. I also have your 2 panel saddle and your Rebel platform hoping to kill something from it this year ! Keep on putting up the great videos at 62 yrs old i'm finding I still have allot to learn !

[@latitudeoutdoors]

@@barrymartin6260 Thank you!! Let us know if you ever need anything.
