Sportsmen's Nation - For The Die-hard Sportsman

This week we have Ryan Manners a Land & Legacy client on the podcast. Ryan and his buddy Bucky work together to improve a farm located in southern Ohio. During this past March, Matt visited the farm and put together a site-specific plan for the property to steer their work in a new direction to maximize their impact on it.   Over the past six months over 120 acres of pasture have been removed to allow the early successional plant communities to grow into an old field management scenario. In less than a full growing season, the native growth is already 5-6 feet tall offering both cover and forage. This forage is also out-competing the soybean fields across the property. Do you have native forage that is this attractive? On this podcast, Ryan discusses the value of how a plan is a fast-track to success! You will not want to want to miss this opportunity to hear firsthand from a client.   We hope you enjoy the podcast and see the value of a landowner sharing their perspective.    Land & Legacy is Powered

On this week's podcast Adam sits down with his brother Chad to discuss their property Whistling Woodlands and their plan to utilize cattle not only as a managed tool to improve habitat but also as a tool to create financial gain to help pay for the farm! Over the course of the last few months they have been utilizing the cows in a rotational grazing pattern to help avoid overgrazing, but most importantly to create a diverse rangeland more suitable for wildlife.  Even in a short period of time, they're already seeing turkeys in pastures recently grazed and are excited to know the future looks bright! They discuss their herd of South Poll cattle and how not just any breed of cows can be thrown in this management system. Bred specifically for heat tolerance, low maintenance, and non selective foragers, these cattle will be a huge part in turning this property around and breaking the barriers that cattle and wildlife can't coexist. Tune in for ideas of possibly including cattle on your farm!   Land &a

This week on the Missouri Woods & Water podcast the guys sit down together and talk about their 2021 whitetail season goals and answer some listener questions.  Our listeners had some cool questions so we talk about stand preferences, tree stand snacks, managed hunts, bear tags, playing the wind on properties where travel patterns are unknown, predator kills, and more.  Then we talk about what each of us wants to accomplish this season.  Micah is really using trail cams for the first time this season so he gets into how that is helping him.  Andy talks about how his property isn't really showing what it normally does and how he might hunt a few places that he hasn't scouted in years.  Nate gets into how this season will be the first year he takes his son hunting with the intention of him harvesting a deer and how that has changed his thinking.  Thanks for listening.     Missouri Woods & Water is Powered by Simplecast Learn more about your ad choices.

In today's episode Garett talks to Johnny Stewart, who's got quite a bit of experience hunting in the northeast but also is a traveling hunter and has spent time in many states across the Midwest as well. The topic of conversation is mature buck behavior, which seems at a first glance like it could be a narrow topic but really isn't. One thing that's very obvious in this discussion with Johnny is that older bucks don't operate the same as other deer, but on top of that, they individually have so many different characteristics and behaviors that trying to describe what any given buck might do is challenging. There are so many specific scenarios that could be at play.  Johnny talks about what commonalities he does see, how he goes out to locate and keep tabs on deer, and how he knows when he's ready to go make a move on a particular deer. There are plenty of examples throughout the episode that might help someone relate to something they might be seeing in their own neck of the woods.   

This week on the podcast, Marcus welcomes in Jason Crighton. Jason is the founder and CEO of Conserve the Wild as well as the host of the Conservation Unfiltered Podcast.

A really great conversation for anyone looking to learn more about the outdoors and conservation.   Average Conservationist is Powered by Simplecast Learn more about your ad choices.

On the Missouri Woods & Water Podcast this week we have on Lindsay Thomas Jr. with the National Deer Association to talk about everything antlers.  First we immediately get into a rabbit hole and talk about the timing of the rut in the southeast, which is where Lindsay is from.  Once we get into talking about antlers, Lindsay gives the listener a rundown of the antler growth process and how it works, even talking about the relation of antler growth to cancer.  Then we get into injuries and how those affect antler growth in a buck.  An injury to just the antler can affect a buck differently than an injury to the pedicle or a skeletal injury.  We also get into culling bucks and what Lindsay thinks about that practice and mineral sites.  Lindsay gives us all kinds of great information on this topic and hopefully helps the listeners understand this awesome process we watch bucks go through every year.      Missouri Woods & Water is Powered by Simplecast Learn more about your ad choices.

It seems like each week, we try to describe what we do and how we work with landowners by using practical illustrations. During this weeks podcast we bring pizza into the discussion.  You maybe wondering how pizza even seems logical, but give this podcast a listen and see how you may fit into the scenario or illustration.  One thing that we cannot teach is vision and this podcast is all about seeing into the future. How and what land can become is visionary, not what it is in the present.  Do you see the completed project before it’s done? Give this podcast a listen to learn how.    Land & Legacy is Powered by Simplecast Learn more about your ad choices.
