About this episode
Don Higgins discusses his favorite properties for whitetail management and the strategies that make them successful.
In this episode of Chasing Giants, Don Higgins and Terry Peer break down their favorite properties from the 2026 consulting season—and what makes them capable of producing mature whitetail bucks year after year. From small acreage setups next to massive sanctuaries… to large, diverse tracts with elite access… this episode dives into the real-world strategies that separate average properties from elite ones. We also cover: Why location beats size when it comes to big bucks How sanctuaries and food sources work together The importance of soil health and regenerative practices Lessons learned from extreme weather and crop performance Why diversity and low intrusion continue to be the foundation of success If you’re serious about managing land for mature whitetails, this episode is packed with insights you can apply immediately. Whether you own 10 acres or 1,000+, these principles still apply.
