On this podcast we are joined by HuntWorx own Greg Glesinger. Greg is known for pursuing huge whitetails in the midwest. Year after year he and Kasey Morgan are toe to toe with 6-8 year old mature whitetail bucks. These pursuits test so many skills that a whitetail hunter must have. This year however, tested patience and persistence as they went after a buck named The Natural.
What made this year such a grind, perhaps it was the 80 acres of standing grain in the field due to a broken combine or maybe it was just the rut needed to take full swing before The Natural got on his feet. One thing is for sure, the removal of the eastern red cedar thickets across this farm has more than doubled the usable space on the property. Without a doubt, this project has dramatically improved this property since starting it in 2021.

How Are Trail Cameras Influencing Your Hunting? Be Honest.
One this week's podcast we are joined by Land & Legacy consultant Alan Summerford. He discusses his recent success in the field with his son Reid in Alabama. They went on a terror during the week of Thanksgiving harvesting three bucks! Most would wonder how frequent these deer were on trail cameras to encounter this many target deer in one week.... the answer will surprise you.
These deer were not frequent and these hunt strategies were very different as one area is peak rut, while the other area is 4 weeks away from peak rut! How was this done, you may ask? Alan and his son didn't rely on the trail cameras to tell them where to and or when or if they should hunt. The cameras simply told them what deer were in the areas they were hunting. From there, they used knowledge of the landscape, food sources, wind, weather on a daily basis to intercept these bucks based on the day to day conditions within the region of where the cameras had picked them up. They most importantly didn't wait for the trail cameras to reveal a pattern. They hunted!

Know Your Neighbors: Mark Williams - Whitetail Properties
On this week's podcast we are joined by Mark Williams of WTP. He and his team have been developing deer management neighborhoods across the country. We have teamed up with them to help develop plans for these tracts of land to better the habitat within these communities. These opportunities are popping up in states like Arkansas, Tennessee, Alabama, and Kentucky. These tracks of land offer increased opportunities to have like kind neighbors. When buying random tracts of land, you are playing neighbor roulette. You just never know exactly what you are getting, sometimes it works out, other times is is the reason for eventually selling.
Buying into a community of hunters and quality habitat will help control the unknown better than most alternative situations. If you have interested in these parcels or others like it, then please contact Mark Williams and his team!
