In today’s episode Garrett discusses some of the logistics for planning out of state hunts. Let’s face it, more and more people are trying their hand at doing these types of hunts. The popularity has certainly increased due to the media and content from people doing them, and surely the pandemic in some ways is likely boosting those numbers as well. Most of the hesitation to doing an out of state hunt is either due to the confidence level that you’d actually be able to get what you would want out of that hunt. But a large part is surely also due to the logistics, and not knowing what you don’t know. Over the past several years, Garrett has hunted in Missouri, Wisconsin, North Dakota, Iowa, Colorado, and Georgia, outside of his home state of Minnesota. This year he'll be adding Nebraska and Pennsylvania to the list of states as well. Some of those trips have been group trips, others solo. Some early season, some rut, and some late season. Most were driving, but a couple have been flying, so hopefully this epis

On this episode of the Hunting Gear Podcast, Dan talks with Dan Schultz of Cuddeback about their CuddeLink camera system.  The guys discuss the birth of the system and the idea behind it. Dan also gets in to how the camera systems works by creating a daisy chain  of cameras relaying pictures back to the main camera before sending it to your phone. This means that some of the cameras don't even need to have cell service. Interesting episode worth a listen.   Hunting Gear Podcast is Powered by Simplecast Learn more about your ad choices.

This week on the Missouri Woods & Water podcast we have a "Tales of the Chase" episode with our very own co-host Andy Homfeld about a buck he hunted nicknamed TP.  This story takes place during the archery portion of the 2018 season where Andy hunted this deer multiple times with many different encounters.  Andy gets into some of the things he did to ultimately get within range of this mature buck.  Like many hunts, some things didn't quite go how Andy would have liked.  He persevered and worked through the issues he had and was able to punch his tag on this awesome deer.  There are many lessons to be learned throughout this story.  Another awesome thing about Andy's story is that he filmed his hunts during that season and made a video of it.  You can watch this hunt on YouTube at www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOp8mwoKCdI. If you do watch the video of his hunt, like Andy mentions during the podcast, go easy on him as it was his first attempt at filming and editing.  We hope everyone enjoys this story as much as Nat

This week we chat with John Royer – the host of YouTube channel Leatherwood Outdoors.  John and his crew are no strangers to enjoying Creation.  For over a decade they have been documenting their outdoor adventures of deer, bear, turkey, and small game hunting, as well as fishing, trapping, mushroom hunting and more.  You will find their channel informational as well as entertaining! One of John’s many passions in the outdoors is rattlesnake hunting.  John shares with us how he began this new hobby and tells stories as well as helpful hints to anyone who may want to pursue this summertime adventure.  Rattlesnakes are often demonized and given a bad reputation.  John explains that while rattlesnakes can be dangerous, if given respect they will leave you alone and often you won’t know they are there in the first place.  Don’t let snakes keep you from hiking and enjoying the outdoors this time of year, instead, learn from John how to hunt them!   Pennsylvania Woodsman is Powered by Simplecast Learn more about yo
