Today on the show Phil and I are joined by Jon Livingston, founder of DeerLab. We'll discuss how DeerLab's technology can help you organize your game camera pictures helping you to pattern your target buck. Jon also shares a recent memorable western hunt. I was personally excited to talk with Jon. DeerLab's technology could be a game changer for anyone who is running multiple cameras on a property, and can help take your hunting strategy to the next level!
