Show Notes
We Discuss:
- Strict trigger discipline is the foundation of consistently killing mature bucks
- Getting deer to 5–6 years old is harder than actually killing them
- Most target bucks live in tight core areas, often under 50 acres
- Knowing individual deer behavior creates a major hunting advantage
- Time in the field builds familiarity that replaces guesswork
- No farm is perfect—neighbor pressure is unavoidable everywhere
- Bigger farms help, but don't eliminate pressure or problems
- Hunting more species improves decision-making and shooting confidence
- Access and land control are becoming the biggest barriers for hunters
