Show Notes
On this episode of the East Meets West Hunt podcast, Beau Martonik is joined by Troy Pottenger to talk about one of my favorite topics - shed hunting and spring scouting for mountain bucks. Troy is extremely successful in hunting giant mountain bucks in northern Idaho, and we’ve found that a lot of his tactics in the west apply to the big woods whitetails of the east. We discuss locating big deer, hunting clearcuts, shed hunting strategies, utilizing licking branches, being efficient scouting and more.
Topics:

Shed hunting strategies
