Ep. 947: Back 40 - When EHD Strikes: How to Adjust Your Hunting Game Plan
EHD can change everything in a matter of one outbreak. Deer disappear, patterns break down, and entire herds can be impacted. In this episode, Jake Hofer asks Steve Hanson, Don Higgins, Skip Sligh, Mark Kenyon, Jeff Sturgis, Thomas Mlsna, Bobby Kendall, and Bill Winke how they adjust when EHD hits their area. Can you still have a successful season when the deer population takes a hit? And what should you be looking for when the woods go quiet? The group shares their experiences with EHD outbreaks, how they adapt their expectations, scout differently, and shift their plans when the usual playbook no longer applies. If your hunting area got hammered by EHD, this episode offers clarity on what to do next.
