  • Summary

  • The Bowhunter Chronicles Podcast - Episode 330 - Scouting Secrets and Snow Tracking: Unlocking Late Season Deer Hunting - Johnny Stewart Early Season Challenges: John’s hunting season began with extensive scouting in Pennsylvania and West Virginia, targeting mast crop areas and clear cuts. Despite his efforts, these spots underperformed, leading him to shift his focus to Ohio, where he had success with two bucks. Adapting Hunting Strategies: Both Adam and John emphasized the importance of in-season scouting and adapting to changing deer behavior. John highlighted the need to balance hunting with scouting, while Adam stressed staying present and relying less on historical data. Technology's Role in Hunting: John and Adam discussed how technology, like trail cameras, aids in scouting but may lead to over-reliance. They agreed that real-time data, such as daytime photos, is most useful but often underutilized. Hunting Philosophy and Preferences: John prefers hunting alone and without cameras, valuing woodsmanship and the freedom to adapt on the fly. He also shared his belief in mid-morning to early afternoon hunting during the rut for better chances at big bucks. Late Season and Snow Tracking: John’s late-season strategy focuses on understanding deer behavior in cold weather, seeking shaded, sheltered areas. He detailed his fascination with tracking deer in snow, analyzing their movements, and predicting their next steps. https://www.spartanforge.ai - save 25% with code bowhunter https://www.latitudeoutdoors.coms https://www.zingerfletches.com https://huntworthgear.com/ https://www.lucky-buck.com https://www.bigshottargets.com https://genesis3dprinting.com https://vitalizeseed.com https://waypointtv.com/#podcast If you like what we are doing and want to see more, please consider checking out our Patreon account.
