#388 - If You Haven't Filled A Tag Yet Don't Panic, Do This Instead! with Thomas Mlsna
Welcome to the WHTL Podcast, presented by Moultrie. Your source for Whitetail Deer Hunting Tactics, Stories & Expert Guests. In this episode, we're back on the road with repeat guest and friend of the channel Thomas Mlsna. We Discuss: Don't assume deer movement from trail camera photos; they can be misleading. Keep scouting throughout November; deer behavior changes rapidly. If you're feeling discouraged, get out there and put in the effort. Historical data is crucial; learn from past hunting experiences. Pressure from hunting can push deer to lower-pressure areas. Use community scrapes to gather intel on deer movement. Anticipate deer behavior based on wind direction and food sources. Be methodical in your approach; plan your hunts carefully. Don't rely solely on trail cameras; they provide limited information. Embrace the unpredictability of the rut; stay adaptable and observant.

#376 - Scrape Week is HERE!!! Maximizing Your Success Hunting Scrapes with JJ Dukart and Bryan Lemke
Welcome to the WHTL Podcast, presented by Moultrie. Your source for Whitetail Deer Hunting Tactics, Stories & Expert Guests. In this episode, we're back on the road with Bobby Worthington. We Discuss: Late October is prime time for hunting big bucks on scrapes. Running trail cameras over scrapes is essential for October success. October cold fronts significantly increase deer movement and hunting success. The atmosphere at the Deer Society fosters collaboration and excitement about hunting. Scrapes are key locations; hunt them based on historical patterns and current activity. Rain can trigger increased deer movement, especially after a storm. Calling and rattling can be effective in late October as bucks become more active. Accessing scrapes quietly is crucial; consider morning vs. evening hunts. Historical data on deer movement can guide your strategy for November. Stay positive and adaptable; every day in the field can yield new opportunities. And So Much More!

#375 - A Lifetime Of Woodsmanship Lessons and Skills with Bobby Worthington
Welcome to the WHTL Podcast, presented by Moultrie. Your source for Whitetail Deer Hunting Tactics, Stories & Expert Guests. In this episode, we're back on the road with Bobby Worthington. We Discuss: Success is mastering common skills uncommonly well over a lifetime. Big woods hunting differs from managed property hunting; it requires unique strategies. October 25th is a key date for hunting nocturnal deer as the rut approaches. Human presence can make deer nocturnal; some may be born with that trait. Understanding deer patterns is crucial; they shift as the rut progresses. Temperature affects deer movement; cold weather increases daytime activity. Hunting funnels and trails is essential for success during the rut. Experience in the woods is more valuable than internet advice or books. Jealousy exists in the hunting community; focus on sharing knowledge instead. Quality gear, like optics, is often overlooked but essential for successful hunting. And So Much More!
