This week on Southern Ground Hunting we're talking with David Miller of West Virginia. We don't get the opportunity to talk about land management too often. Public land hunting really doesn't give a hunter the opportunity to do much in terms of land management. However, this week we're changing it up and covering David Miller's strategies for whitetail land management in mountain country. The southeast is scattered with hills and hollers, with parts of Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia and North & South

2022/02/17

This week's fireside chat topic is brought to us from Matt Reaves. "What are we doing to make sure we can capitalize in the moment of truth?" This really is a great question. As the guys discuss this topic, they talk through their shot process and how each remains focused. As these chats normally do, this one takes a turn from shot process to eating deer nuts... and other odd things that can be eaten from a game animal.

2022/02/10

This isn't your everyday trail camera conversation. If you're a deer hunter, chances are you own one or several trail cams. If we're being honest most hunters really don't know how to use them effectively. Sure, you may get a picture of a big buck occasionally, but is it really teaching you anything other than the fact that he's in the area? This week we're joined by Jordan Pope who recently killed an 8.5 year old public land stud in Alabama. Jordan talks about how began narrowing down this buck's

As deer season comes to a close in most states, Parker, Drew & Adam decide to discuss some of the season highlights... and low points. This is a fireside type convo with no real agenda, but the guys do chase a few rabbit trails. Drew tells us the story of his "urban" hunt that is so Alabama it hurts. Absolutely hilarious! Adam talks about his big archery buck from the season in Tennessee where he fully utilized trail cameras as a part of strategy. It's sad that the season is over, but we're left

The words "Observation Sits" get thrown around a lot, but for a lot of us patience isn't our greatest virtue. We talk a lot about being aggressive, and there's definitely a time and place for that. However, sometimes it pays off to know where you should be throwing aggressive moves at. Jace Allen joins us this week to discuss how much more efficient you can be by throwing a couple of sits in an area just to observe what the deer are doing before going in guns blazing and potentially blowing out an

It's nice to get lucky on a big buck ever once in awhile, but we all have to admit that the memories that are burned into our minds are those bucks that we really had to work for.

It's easy to get stuck in your head when you've been grinding all season long and have just felt like nothing's going to come together. This was definitely the case for Parker this season. Normally, he's at least had some good encounters with bucks during the Alabama bow season, if not tagged a couple. The 2021 season just wasn't going as planned. One thing that all hunters say is "It just takes one second for your whole season to turn around". Well, that was the case for Parker.This week you'll get

It just so happened that we were able to work it out where Mark could join us for our annual father/son Rutcation.
