Description
In this episode, Don discusses his busy week and the challenges he faced while hunting for a giant buck in Ohio. He also talks about the new web show he's working on and the meetings he had with companies related to farming for nutrients. Don shares his decision to not pursue the buck in Ohio due to low odds of success and the presence of other hunters on the property. He also mentions spending time with his family and the launch of a new deer feeder by a friend. Don and Terry discuss the status of their fall plots and answer listener questions about buck travel patterns and the impact of their practices on doe genetics. In this part of the conversation, Don and Terry answer questions from listeners about influencing buck genetics, advice for hunting mature bucks on permission properties, and the relationship between doe body weight and buck antler size. They also discuss the impact of an early antler growing season on when bucks shed their velvet, and the strategy of culling bucks based on their rack size. Don emphasizes the importance of hunting bucks where they spend their daylight hours, focusing on bedding cover rather than food plots. keywords: busy week, hunting, giant buck, Ohio, web show, farming for nutrients, meetings, low odds, family time, deer feeder, fall plots, buck travel patterns, doe genetics, buck genetics, hunting advice, doe body weight, antler size, culling bucks, bedding cover, food plots
