For episode 600 we have Todd Steakley of Alabama on the podcast to talk about his ultra-aggressive ground hunting tactics! Todd utilizes ghillie suits to get in tight to where the deer actually are and put himself right on the "X"! Subjects include:

• Todd's military experience leading him to use ghillie suits in the deer woods
• Mastering your concealment to be able to hunt almost anywhere
• Locating main trails that lead into bedding and following them
• Tucking into the shadows for ultimate concealment
• Hunting the spots where there are no trees to hang in
• Hunt the spots where the deer spend the most time
• Determining the right part of the thicket to hunt
• Grid hunting your way through bedding areas
• Mastering your setup to allow archery shots from the ground
• Bow hunting vs rifle hunting setups

and A TON more! This is a must listen and must SHARE episode!
