    761 - What Deer REALLY Do When Scrapes Go Cold | Listener Q&A
    Jan 29 2026
    In this Thursday Q&A episode, we break down listener questions covering funnels, mock scrapes, late-season doe scouting, clearing shooting lanes, and aging deer. We dive into when (and when not) scrapes actually matter, how trail cameras can mislead you during the rut, and why deer movement often looks very different in real time than it does on camera. We also talk through cold-weather rut behavior, hunting pressure, scent disturbance, and how to adjust your strategy as scraping activity dies off and chasing ramps up. Along the way, we share real-world observations from recent hunts and discuss why hunting the fringes and reading sign on the ground can be more valuable than relying solely on trail cam data.

  • 760 - Why Most Hunters Try Too Hard | Scott Seales & Mike Dillon

    760 - Why Most Hunters Try Too Hard | Scott Seales & Mike Dillon
    Jan 26 2026
    In this video, we sit down with our good buddy Scott Seales, who has been a big deer hunting mentor for us in the last few years! Scott's advice directly helped Jacob and Andrew tag their last two bucks, including Jacob's biggest Alabama buck to date! We start by going over how Jacob found the spot he hunted and tagged his big buck on a new-to-him piece of public land in Alabama. We then discuss why a lot of hunters have the skills they need to be successful, yet they still struggle. Scott goes over how he keeps things simple and explains where most guys go wrong when it comes to overthinking big bucks. We are also joined by Andrew's stepdad, Mike Dillon to get an update on his season and learn what has made the biggest difference for him going from not seeing many deer last season, to tagging two bucks and a doe this season.

    759 - Follow The FRESH SIGN - Andrew's Got Another Buck!
    Jan 22 2026
    In this episode we are hitting some listener Q&A submissions, then talking about Andrew's recent successful hunt on his second big buck of the season! Listener questions: Should I hunt over this signpost rub? Are hiking trails good for accessing spots clean? Hot scrape post rut: hunt it or stay on food? We then dive into what Andrew has learned this season when it comes to trail cams, and the kind of sign that beats trail cam pictures any day, but especially during the rut!
