Why You’re Probably Wrong About Deer Hunting

About this episode

The episode discusses the importance of staying curious in deer hunting and recognizing the limits of one's knowledge.

Most hunters spend way too much time trying to prove they’re right… and not enough time asking what they’re missing. This one turns into a solid conversation about staying curious in the deer woods. We get into the idea that the moment you think you’ve got it figured out is usually when things start going sideways. From hunting pressure and thermals to scouting, trail cams, and even turkey hunting, it all comes back to one thing… You don’t know as much as you think you do. Learn more about your ad choices.
