Truth From The Stand Deer Hunting Podcast

Today I’m joined by my buddy Johnny Utah Mulligan. John has been jet setting hunting all over the world since the last time we had a chance to catch up. In addition to his hunting travels he embarked on competing in his first tactical games. If you know John’s background as a former undercover narcotics cop and his love of fitness, then you know this shooting CrossFit games style of competition is up his alley. As if that wasn’t challenging enough…my dude starting training Jiu Jitsu too! Awesome catching up with my buddy…and I’m stoked that he’s living his best life.

Today I’m joined by my buddy Dan Tutor. Dan hunts the islands off the coast of Maine. I’ve always had an interest in island hunting but two things that held me back was …water access via the sea/bay (seems dicey and borderline stupid for someone who didn’t grow up around the ocean) and giving up a mid west hunt to hunt the north east where they’re not known for great whitetail hunting (compared to the midwest). Well…I still may not have my sea legs, but Dan has hauled in a few deer that put to rest any concerns of the caliber of bucks you can find on the islands. I hope you all dig this session as much as I did…I think I might be an Island hunter in the future!

Today I’m joined by my buddy Chris Derrick. Anytime Chris is on you can count on two things…A season is just about to open. And Sitka Gear has recently dropped brand new kit advancing their already bullet proof systems. Over time Sitka has continued to evolve their systems including different applications of Merino Wool. As awesome as Merino wool is for base layers, in its natural form it may not be the best material for outer layers until now. As always Sitka delivering on the needs of the hunter with in-field usability, stealth, and a new approach to merino able to withstand the abuse of grueling hunts season after season …hope you all dig the session it as much as I did.

Today I’m joined by my buddy Mario Trafficante. Mario and I met and realized we had way more in common than our passion for bowhunting. We both recognize the larger patterns in our lives that complement each other, drives our passion, our curiosity, and at times creativity. If you allow it, hunting can enrich your life beyond the tree stand. And the same can be said that anything you're passionate about can positively influence your hunting. Like most things in life, mindset and how you process the world around you is everything. Mario is not just a great hunter, but he gets it…the pursuit of experiences, the quest for knowledge, to make him a better hunter…but ultimately a better human. One of my favorite conversations in recent memory…hope you all enjoy it as much as I did.

Today I’m joined my buddy Just Wright. Justin cut his teeth in the big woods of Missouri and then moved later in life to moved to an area of MO with more agricultural land. It was those early big woods lessons that built a foundation that allows him to find success in any terrain. Justin is also one of those guys, that if you’re lucky, you have the good fortune in life to meet. He’s as sharp of a woodsman as you’ll find and an absolute killer in the whitetail woods. More importantly, you might not meet a nicer, more humble, or more down to earth person.

Today I’m joined my buddy Tony Sangialosi of 33OH Archery. Tony and I were introduced by our mutual friends over at Exodus. They thought since we both are obsessed with bowhunting and jiu jitsu that we should meet! Tony’s introduction to the archery world is different from most that I’ve met. He also took it to the next level creating a business building custom bowstrings and arrows. Finding success is a habit, being open to possibilities, and taking risks….be it hunting, business, family, or jiu jitsu.

Today I’m joined my buddy Joe Rentmeester. Joe is one of the most detailed hunters I’ve met and usually leads to the demise of a buck he has his sights set on. Today we did something a little different where we walked through each phase of the hunting season to see how Joe would tackle or has tackled hunts throughout the season. Success doesn’t come easy. It usually comes with adapting as the season changes…and that’s exactly what we discuss during todays episode. Hope you all dig the session as much as I did - thanks for listening!

Today I’m joined my buddy Drew Bounds. Drew cut his teeth hunting in the Deep South along the Arkansas/Lousiana border, but his passion takes him across state lines seeking adventure and the mature bucks of the midwest. Drew is on an eight year heater…where he’s filled his out of state tag eight years running. The average score of those eight bucks…168 inches and some change. That’s like batting .400 in the big leagues. Oh…and if you want big elk…he does that too! His secret sauce to killing big deer “if I can see him, I can kill him.” Hope you all dig the conversation as much as I did!

Today I’m joined my buddy Steve Sherk. If you don’t already know Steve, he’s likely one of the most well versed mountain hunters you’ll find, he eats, lives and breathes mountain bucks.

Today I’m joined by my buddy Paul Putera. Paul is one of those public land guys that’s comfortable with the uncomfortable. Whether it’s talking the long way in to keep is access clean. Or just thinking outside the box, doing the opposite of what all other hunters are doing to find the overlooked hidden spots holding mature bucks. High pressure areas, Big woods, swamps, hill country…doesn’t matter. My money is on Paul to haul out a mature buck . Hope you all dig the conversation as much as I did - thanks for listening!

Today we're taking a stroll down memory lane with a look back episode. From time to time I like to go back through episodes to refresh my memory of things I should be thinking of as the season approaches.

Today I'm joined by my buddy Heath Cisco. Heath likely needs little introduction, he’s been killing mature bucks consistently for years. He’s the rare breed that can consistently target a specific mature buck and ultimately have that beast fall to his arrow. While he enjoys hunting all parts of the fall, he’s deadly with a front in October, and might be even better when the clock winds down and the brutal late season conditions roll in…he didn’t get the nickname “Iceman” for nothing!

Today I'm joined by my buddy Matt Zirnsak from The Push Archery. Matt and The Push Archery are a wealth of knowledge when it comes to everything traditional archery.

Today I'm joined by my buddy Jason Michael. I like to refer to Jason as the original DIY Traveling Whitetail Gypsy. He’s like a walking welcome center for any state, and any public ground. I’ve rarely mentioned a piece of ground in any state that he wasn’t familiar with. He’s as sharp a woodsman as they come, deadly with a stick and string in his hand…but beyond that…he might be one of the nicest humans you’ll ever meet. You won’t find a bigger cheering section for someone else success than him. One of my favorite conversations in recent memory…and hope you all dig it as much as I did - thanks for listening!

Today I'm joined by my buddy Kevin Vistisen. Quality of life has probably been on most peoples minds the past few years. I know it has been something I’ve given a fair amount of thought. Whether it’s to hunt more, be in better physical shape, or provide your family with the type of lifestyle you desire…these things usually come with sacrifice in the short-term for longer-term rewards. You’ll hear a lot of people talk about such things…but few act. Kevin is acting, and today we talk about evolving your life and your families life to focus on quality vs quantity…and better deer hunting…of course - thanks for listening!

Today I'm joined by my buddy Mike Perry from Pennsylvania. I haven’t had Mike on in a while and it’s always good to catch up with a fellow PA hunter. For those of you who don’t know Mike, he’s a killer. Whether it’s public or private Mike consistently finds and kills mature deer. One of my favorite things about Mike is his curiosity, and how his expectations are rooted in reality. Mike’s been killing deer since the 90’s. We talk about his style has evolved over the years from a rut hunter to now an approach this is more focused on following the changing components of the deer’s world in the fall to stay in the game vs. sitting a funnel. One thing that hasn’t changed is the notion that the only way to get good at killing mature bucks…is to kill deer in general. It takes reps and experience, and letting the arrow go is just the beginning. Hope you all dig the conversation - thanks for listening!
