HUNTR

In this episode of the HUNTR Podcast, we’re joined by Zack Robb and Jesse Mitchell ahead of the Whitetail Road Show to talk mobile hunting, mature bucks, and adapting your setup to the situation in front of you. We dive into hunting big mountain country, using terrain and thermals, aggressive hunting strategies, hunting low, and why staying mobile can give you more options when chasing mature whitetails. Zack and Jesse also share their experiences with Lone Wolf Custom Gear, the mobile setups they rely on, and their plans heading into deer season. Thanks for tuning in, and we’ll catch you next week.

In this episode of the HUNTR Podcast, we're joined by Pat Burns to break down his incredible six-year pursuit of a giant public land whitetail he called the “Electric Buck.” After finding his first set of sheds, Pat spent years collecting trail camera data, tracking through the snow, studying scrapes, and piecing together the buck's movement across thousands of acres. That obsession eventually brought him face-to-face with an 11.5-year-old whitetail. Pat shares everything the journey taught him about mature buck behavior and why, sometimes, the pursuit means more than the kill. Thanks for tuning in, and we'll catch you next week. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.
