About this episode

This episode discusses hunting strategies for small parcels of land and the traditions of deer camp with guest Jimie Deegan.

Most hunters dream about owning hundreds of acres. What if you only needed 2.8? In this episode of the Okayest Hunter Podcast, we're joined by Jimie Deegan to discuss one of the most overlooked strategies in whitetail hunting—targeting tiny parcels that everyone else drives past. From killing mature bucks on properties smaller than most backyards to finding overlooked permission ground, Jimie Deegan explains why big deer don't always need big properties. We also dive into the traditions of deer camp, cooking at camp, how hunting has changed over the years, and why the shared experience keeps us coming back every fall. Whether you're hunting public land, knocking on doors, or trying to maximize a small piece of private ground, this episode will change how you look at the map. Learn more about your ad choices.
