Love how he doesn’t have a hidden agenda. He gives the best advice and just wants to spread good information to people. Every new and old hunters should watch these videos.

I hunt in Kansas, I’m 25 and am new to hunting. I found your channel shortly after beginning research on hunting whitetail deer. Using the tips in this channel I was able to get my first buck last weekend on Nov 6th! Even better it was with a compound bow. Nice little 6 pointer. Thanks Jeff!!

One of the best blinds is an old building/house if it's available. It could even be a grain bin. Even with no windows the deer come right up to the house and don't wind me. Dunno why but it's been a great place.

I've been glued to your channel for exactly 1 year. Got my first buck in Eagle River WI during gun season 2020. Purchased my first bow January 2021, and harvested my first archery deer this weekend! Thank you so much Jeff for the wisdom you are passing down, not only to your KZfaq audience, but also for the generations the thousands of us that it pass it on to friends and family for centuries to come! ❤ 🏹 🦌

Your videos have really helped me out. I've killed the 2 biggest bucks of my life this year, and I credit you

My favorite part of this video was when you said you don't "have to buy this or that"...so many in the hunting industry say that you MUST purchase all this stuff to be successful and here you are putting out a plethora of information for FREE. You put so much hard work year round into producing the FREE stuff that makes a person successful, then you give that bonus option to subscribe to additional info but back it up by saying you don't need to buy any of it to kill big deer. Appreciate how humble and down to earth you still are! Your information put me on a great buck this fall, my own mistakes caused me to not recover the deer but everything leading up to getting that buck 8 yards in front of me during the "October lull" bs is attributed to everything I've learned from your FREE content, thank you!

Hey Jeff, I've been following you for a few years now and I just want to say thank you for everything you do! Your tips and strategies including properly hunting the wind, weather, human scent control, etc. have made me a better hunter. I bagged my target buck split brow tine 13 pointer on Nov. 13th in western MN! Thanks again Jeff!

Just tagged out in Michigan. Me and another guy I work with have used several tips from your vids and have witnessed the change. I’m glad I figured cold weather hunting before watching your videos. Puts the reassurance in success. Good job tagging out yourself.

Eastern Ohio here. Finally starting to see above average activity on the cameras and around my stand. The 2 target bucks I am waiting on are still not showing up on camera until right after sunset and before sunrise. Really hoping the woods explode this weekend. Rock on Jeff and all you hunters out there.

Love your content, Jeff! Sat out in my back lot yesterday evening (although a little warm). I haven’t touched that area since the beginning of Oct. Harvested a beautiful 11 point with a kicker. Started to track him and the back lot that I hadn’t touched was full of scrapes/rubs and the smell of rutting buck was unreal. Not exposing my sent to that area worked absolute wonders!!! Great advice!!

Thanks, Jeff! After 4 yrs of hunting, I've learned just how wise your advise is. Thanks for doing what you do!

I have worked on my scent control all this season and it's helped me tremendously seen more deer and bucks than ever

Shot at my target buck during bow season using your advice, that being said a small twig veered the arrow and now he has a cut on his side, I know this because of how I got in and stayed home most days he showed back up..It's a very pressured area around it so hoping he has made it so far huge temp drop Saturday to make it happen! Thanks again for all you do!

Life happened and I didn't hunt deer for 11 Seasons. I thought I was a pretty good hunter before but my knowledge of deer has grown exponentially with this channel. I will use the info. contained here for many years to come. Oh yeah, I put some of your tips into practice and scored my biggest buck ever Nov. 6th a 12 point mature buck that I had on cam. I got the perfect conditions for that stand and everything fell into place. Very satisfying as I write and listen to my dehydrators working hard to complete thier deer jerky mission. Your work ethic on educating the hunting public is second to none. Thanks for sharing your passion and all you do to enhance the working man's experience afield.

I’m a new bow Hunter. Your videos are so well made. Your extremely well spoken. I have been learning so much, I can’t wait to put all my knowledge into setting up for next year. This year has been a great hunt season, but why not make it the best you can. Thank you for sharing.

I love what you do for us teaching us the do's and don'ts for whitetails. My passion is bow hunting big bux and just started following your techniques. However, when its the gun season here in MN where I hunt in heavily pressured small parcel public lands....if its brown, ITS DOWN. Although I'll follow your techniques for archery and not take does. It's a different vibe with bow as theres not alot of folks out wandering during prerut with all the woods to yourself. With the gun season, all the uncles and cousins are hunting in a big party so again, if its brown, it down for gun.

I'm 5 deer down, doe tags filled. One nice 8 point down. have a crazy buck come across the road taking down 1 to 2 inch trees chasing two doe with a six point right behind him. started about 150 yards away and end up running with in 15 ft from my stand. no shot with my BP. to fast to get a scope on him . he was snorting like crazy. one of the wildest events I've seen here in Va. Big 12 point. neighbor got him later that day. all the food plots are doing great. several hemp rope hangs have been very active . thanks to your advice the herd is thriving and we are really enjoying seeing all the deer in the fields around the farm.

Thank you so much for all the educational time you give to us! You are the reason that I tagged a monster that we have been looking for for years! Grunted him into 3 yards and I smoked him! He went 100 yards and pilled up in a field!

Hunting 18-21 archery and 22-23 gun season. Can't wait. NC mountains We got one stand, but two other spots we sit. 12 acres that sit on top of a hill with a creek at the bottom. I've seen a black bear(out of range), countless doe, couple spikes and a nice 6 pointer that was out of range earlier in the season. Thanks for all the tips. Love the channel

November deer chore, Drag slobs out of the thick lol

Upstate NY. Got a 9ptr at 9am, came to 7yards and bedded above a doe trail. I had pics of him at 9am on Halloween. I stayed out of that stand until the coldest morning (Nov 6th). Thanks Jeff! Love every video

I enjoy your videos as I drink my coffee in the morning. Thanks for all the tips and tricks you teach us for free.

Jeff, you nailed it for my scenario right now and helped me make a decision today. I have a spot like you described.. going downhill into a flat and a popup. Rain coming tomorrow so I'll wait, check that cam in the rain late to mid morning and not risk disturbing things on a day like today where its quiet and still. Even though I'm dying to see if he's been around, I must hold off. Wind is not favorable either. The big buck doesn't care if I'm just in to check my cam and leave. He just cares I'm there. The big buck only needs 1 thing and he's gone. Thanks for the reminder man! ✌🇨🇦

Amen I’ve been very successful hunting that way. In Florida it get hot during hunting season. I try to wait on cold days. I see more deer this way.

Jeff's advice is priceless pay attention people! Recently hunted Indaina, got there on a Monday and told my buddy that Friday morning it's gonna happen. Shot a mature 11pt. On that Friday morning...The weather controls all

Thanks for the great info. I had a 5.5 year old buck patterned on our property using 3 mock scrapes. Yes, they are all vines. He had been active in daylight for 3 weeks. I just needed some kind of east wind. Sunday morning was a slight southeast wind blowing from the woods out into a cattle pasture that the deer shy away from. I killed him at 9:46 on the first sit in this stand. It was a ten yard shot and he was directly between me and one of the mock scrapes he had been visiting. He is being scored this week and has 22-24 scorable points. Thank again!

Saturday is opening day of Gun season here in Tennessee can't get here soon enough lol. Ty for your videos have learned a lot!

Your videos actually taught me how to seriously hunt I harvested my first Buck by listening to your strategies yeah he might’ve been a six point but you taught me a lot more than anybody’s ever taught me please keep up on the videos I hunt the southern part of Ohio

Buddy showed me a video from Saturday evening of a big 10 on top of a doe here in upper NE Wisconsin.

You pretty much answered a question I had at about 2:18. I have/had a 40 acre lease. Had being the timber company just took all 40 acres at the start of rifle in Louisiana. I have had to start relying on public WMA hunting. Still trying to get one this season. Still new to hunting, I am trying to get better. I watch a lot of your videos and they help, but I get into my own head trying to get at least one deer. I will keep pushing forward and just have to adapt to what I am dealt. We will see what happens going forward.

Great content guys! Filled my Wisconsin bow tag in Oct. Few target bucks on camera yet. Looking forward to Rifle season!

Gonna go out tonight a little warm here but rut is here so sitting in the swamp around water in the low cool valley with my son can't wait to get off work

I am hoping all this advice bares fruit. This is my first year hunting from a blind. I have a 23 acre plot old cattle pasture that hasn't been used for anything in a few decades next to lots of ag. I have been baiting all summer and had a shooter show up in October. Can only hope he, or some of his bigger neighbours, show up.

Most weeks I’ll only be able to hunt once a week (just started hunting last Saturday). When I went out last a few hunters heading out said they hadn’t seen any trace of deer. About halfway through the time I had to hunt I saw a mature doe dash past me (foliage offered little room to shoot and I saw her for maybe half a second). Sadly I have yet to bag any deer, but that isn’t keeping me from wanting to go

I listened to a very smart hunter once talk about the rut. He said there is no 2nd or 3rd rut. It's ongoing from late Oct thru Jan/Feb, it's just younger does come into heat later. If a doe comes into heat early Nov, she will get bred by a young or old buck, they won't miss her. Younger does, yearlings will come into heat later, like Dec-Feb. There is no does that get missed, bucks can smell a hot doe from up to a mile away.

Thanks for the video! We hunt tree lines that run through corn fields and unfortunately it looks like the corn will still be standing this gun season so my daughter, brother and myself are just going to sit in our stands with not so high expectations and we are just going to enjoy this mid November time in SE Wisconsin carrying on a long standing tradition. Good luck and be safe to all!

Just wanted to reply to you saying about the information helping us out, and just wanted to say I have learned alot from watching all of your videos! Thank you!

Thanks for doing these videos I don't have a lot of money or time but because of your videos I've learned how to make the best of what time I have to hunt. I've learned so much from watching your channel Thanks again Jeff 👍👍

I do most of my scouting and tree stand work during spring turkey hunting and early in bow season in Vermont

Jeff, I've been hunting since I was 7,I would aggravate my dad so much to just go! As I grew older I seen things in the woods and took note much as you did. I would see something one year and then I learned and the next year I would get a deer. The more years I went the better the bucks I would harvest! I watch alot of people on KZfaq and they all are contradicting but you on the other hand , I watch you and I'm always saying" yep, he's right again"! I always recommend you to any new hunter I talk to and will continue to do so! Sometimes you give me cold chills when I hear you talk, you know your stuff hahaha it's like we were deer in the past life! People, listen to this guy, he is not here to hurt you , he is here to help but you don't have to take my word for it just read the comments! Jeff, if there was a heart ❤️ instead of a 👍🏻I would smash it Everytime, nowadays I hit the like soon as I clock on your videos! Have a good day sir and God bless you!

Thanks Jeff , Great advice. Love the channel

Heading up to Alger county property for the hunt Friday! Long drive from Texas, but well worth it! Keep doing what your doing!

I've found the best time to do any work on my place is right after season closes clearing trails figuring different places to put new stands for next year figuring out how to improve things for next year I really enjoy doing all that after each season

I won’t forget when I sent out in late archery for a doe and a buck was rutting in January

Had a big 10 point 75 yards. Bow season late October this year. Hogs came between us. Him and another buck. They turned and went back to the oaks. Watch him for hour. I want shoot at one that far. 60 or closer I fill comfortable at that range. Had him at 50 yards two days later. He would never give me a shot. He stayed behind bushes. Have not been back sense. The weather will good great this coming weekend. I’m in Florida it’s supposed to be in the low 40’s a couple days. I’m going after him then.

Had a buck gut shot from another hunter this year that we’ve been hunting for 3 years on public land here in pa. He has double split brow tines. Probably would’ve scored 150” such a shame that he was wounded and probably will never have his antlers found.

By far the best hunting knowledge out their! He's not out for your money, but only to make you better as a hunter and as one that helps the habitat.

I keep it simple. #1 Hang hunting cloth on line let it get rained on than leave hanging till dry. And keep on line when not hunting. #2 before going out shower without any soup, Just water. No scent killer sprays. No lures. I have deer down wind of me and most time they don't even smell me enough to get spooked.

Hey Jeff thanks for all you do and share with us. I've used all your tips and advise to finally put the pieces of the puzzle together and bagged a beautiful 10 point last Saturday here in Pa. Now off to Virginia.

Been watching a 10 pointer and a 6 pointer on my cameras for the past 2 months just waiting for next weekend to start setting my eyes on them and getting a closer look hopefully don’t do anything stupid to mess up my chances with them or another good buck this season

You have a great channel and give lots of valuable information. Been using it on our family hundred acres and has been paying off. I tagged out this year on a northern buck so will be hunting with my nephew when wind is right on our family grounds

Most live year I have ever had. Watching buck chase seeing them bursting by with their nose on the ground. I'm hunting a careful 3 acres surrounded by a lot more private acres around it it's a challenging spot but very active. Strategy for me is sitting on my one stand I own on the south or south west wind. Big parking lot to my job 50 yards south south west of me land hasnt been hunted for well over 5 years. I walked out to the 3 acres of woods on the 11 acre parcel and walked into a bomb shell of scraped and rubs big trees tore up. I got permission. I will fill my tags this year for sure if apply it right. Hunt on my days off if the wind is right and hunt on the days I get out early from work if that wind is right. So far it's paying off

it amazes me how many people I know here in Wisconsin that check their stand the day or two before gun opener... then pull out their hunting clothes out of their musty closet, and then they wonder why they struggle to have a lot of success

Thanks for all your content. Started following about a year and half ago and implemented both your land management and hunting strategies this year and harvested an awesome buck on November 3rd in NW Pa.

North Florida checking in. I appreciate your education.

I've seen all kinds of deer sign earlier on my way to the cameras couple rub and scrapes I can't wait for hunting season to start in Eastern Kentucky

I'm curious if you've ever tried saddle hunting, Jeff, and what your opinions on that would be? When hunting public land, setting up semi-permanent stands is not feasible....thanks! Love your vids and the HuntCast app!

Had off all last week. It was cold but the buck activity was pretty low for our area most the week. By the end of week it picked up but didnt see any shooter bucks. Just two and half year olds cruising.

The power line companies decided too use a helicopter with 2 long cables suspending chainsaws. Wreaked havoc on the cover on my stand cover half way up. Now I silhouette TERRIBLY. So I opted for a rhino 180 blind which is simply awesome if you haven't seen them. Going too put it right in front of my ladder stand, brush it in and use the stand as a decoy. Hope big Clyde looks up and sees the empty stand but not the blind. Food plots are made in the fall and mine is rocking right now. I only hunted my stand one time this year during muzzleloader season and that's it. Saturday I get my first crack. Fingers crossed.

Alot of times that one day a week hunter harvest's a decent buck every year. Love this channel

This is an awesome channel...and you're an awesome dude Jeff. Best practical whitetail advise channel hands down. We appreciate you Sir.

Thanks Jeff for all the tips and tricks from the videos, helped me get a nice 8 pointer and a doe within 5 mins of each other Saturday night with the compound!! My buddy and I put out the stand Friday and I hunted it Friday night (acorn flat going to field for afternoon food source) and by Saturday evening I had arrowed them both. Could be luck, I'd say it was mostly luck and positioning from your vids. Thanks a bunch and keep putting out banger videos!

Seeing very little in all my go spots, Roxbury, ny

Thanks for the video Jeff, I also hunted in some of the areas of the thumb and Caro and Kingston like you, now I'm in Clio and have some really big bucks in the area and watching your videos helps a lot, but one of my main concerns is getting to my areas since I only have one way in to get to it, so keep the videos coming.

My problem is I can only hunt one long weekend a year with my schedule. This year it’s thanksgiving to Sunday. I usually kill what I see first if it’s big enough .

Watching all your videos from Tennessee. Would LOVE if you would talk southern hunting a little more.

Chance of snow Friday/Sunday NW IL, should be great rut opportunities! Finally saw a 10 start chasing last night, almost time for the big deer to come out 😉

Tagged out already on a pair of 150 class bucks...on doe patrol for the rest of the season here in michigan

Listening and learning I've been following you a few years now and just love all the information thanks Jeff I'm still waiting to hear about Venti

Hey WHS I really like your youtube videos I am new to bow hunting this was my 1st year and I only have 2 week worth of vacation your videos have taught me not to burn out my favorite spot's and hunt on good weather days to have the best success I have stuck 2 deer now with my bow so thank you so much. now for my question in most of your videos you have a hang and hunt with a ladder set up where can I find that ladder set up that you use? can you send me a link to where I can buy one? In this video @12:07 that is the ladder I'm talking about. if anyone knows where I can buy one or what they are called PLEASE let me know.

A lot of last minute blinds popping up along 23 in Michigan and 469 in IN. Wide open. Their neighbors will be thankful later

Jeff if a buck snapped and pulled down my licking branch for my mock scrape should I go in and fix it or let it be until after the season. What have you done in that situation?

I don't hunt at all until the first week of November on my farm in northern tennessee. The deer seem to run from the land around me to my timber and drainage land it works out great!

I’m in Southwest Pennsylvania and I’ll be honest, I have lots of tree stand time with numerous cameras and the deer are only starting to chase here. I’ve seen my share of horns this season and most have been in the last week. I’m a clean hunter who uses numerous stands on a large partial that has little pressure. No calls or scents, just a guy in a tree who moved very little and hunts the wind the best I can. Again if the rut is in I’m not seeing it here! The last 3 days have been in the lower to high 60,s. Hopefully the weekend cold front will get them up and moving.

U nailed it mister "just enjoy urself" . U enjoy 😉 thanks

Sadly, I haven’t gotten out into the woods yet 😭. But I’m learning so much with your videos, Jeff. Hopefully when I can get out, what I’m learning will pay off!

so true, and well put, 'mature bucks only need one sense to spook" would love to have you to the farm for design, setup, and fun!

Great tips as always Jeff. I am still struggling to get my first deer 🦌 with a bow 🏹 and I have had that bow since 2006. 😞 I haven't even seen a small buck push a doe let alone a mature one. Congratulations though on your two big tanks in Wisconsin and Minnesota. I look forward to watching the recap videos and the ones that you did for Mathew's and their new flagship bow among other upcoming product releases from them. 🏹🦌🌲

I live in sw iowa and I did get a buck on Monday the 8th. And that was most I have seen since October.

Love your vids. Very very informative. Keep up the good work!

I go to spots no one wants to hunt or are overlooked and I have had great success

I work the week but have no time to hunt my stand so I hunt during the weekend and only have one stand but have filled mostly all my tags besides one buck tag.

Jeff, thank you, I've learned so much from you!

Man Jeff, love watching your videos!!! Also love this time of year!! Their running everywhere!!! Really appreciate your advice!!!

Hey Jeff, I hang and hunt alot with my saddle system and I have shot some hammers that way! Now iam not clearing and cutting shooting lanes for the reasons you mention. I also hunt alot of fixed stands as you do but sometimes you have to make adjustments and I find the saddle system is a super stealthy way to do just that. Love the videos btw.

You do a great job with these videos thank you I hunt deer on public land in the southern part of New Brunswick and the woods are so thick to see 50 yards is a great spot And very few bucks Really nice to watch your videos and put some of your info to good use Thanks

Bigger ones are coming off lock down I think.Searching going on.Saw 6 buck off my deck this morning.Only 1 good one.Went for a ride about 10 and saw 2 real good ones just cruising.

Using a lot of your material this year Jeff .. hitting the woods this weekend thanks to huntwise weather algorithm 👍🏻 keep up the good content jeff next year we are doing a whole lot different on our properties 🤘🏻

Need to make a few stand adjustments in my primary bedding area to bedding area blind for Nov 15th mich opener. thick cat tail and cedar swamp. Real bucky always after the opener when the gun pressure pushes them in there. Gonna pour and blow hard on thursday. Will do it then for sure.....

Kentucky zone 4 gun opens Saturday!! Good luck.

By following your advice, I killed my biggest buck this year! Thank you for doing these videos!

I don't have the choice to pick and choose which days I hunt. Michigan season opens on the 15th and camp is 400 miles away. I don't see much choice but to hang a stand and hunt it hard.

Already got my doe and a little spike horn. Freezer is full now it's time to look for the big boys. Still have 2 more doe tags to fill but I'll pry just save those for like the end of January once we get through a good chunk of this meat.

Temperatures are dropping this weekend in Iowa! Should be great out there!

Outstanding tips! Thx

I have been successful by finding pinch points and morning hunting and was able to see to big bucks cruising by. Hopefully I get the bigger one after gun season because bussiness is booming and can't get out this weekend

Thank you for all your advice. It is much appreciated. Will County Illinois

Been following your advice, learning from the videos, and really applying it this season. Still not really seeing anything and somehow busting the ones I do. I'm running out of time and getting discouraged. I'm able to appreciate the act of being out, but I'm still just feeling like it's all for nothing. Hoping to wrap it up these next few days in PA.

Thanks Jeff, another great video! Your comments really hit home. I have limited time with a 6 mo old daughter and coaching my son's hockey team and work in general. I took 2 half day mornings last wed/thur here in southern PA and had 2 great mornings of hunting on public game lands. Saw a shooter the first morning and passed a nice 13-14 inch wide 8 pt the second day. I hunted a different stand each time regardless of seeing that nice buck the first morning. My success has gone up dramatically by always hunting a fresh tree with my climber. These are trees I found prior years from scouting near bedding areas. Can you comment here on when the 2nd and 3rd ruts are? This is something I here little talk on and would like to learn more. For a guy hunting in Southern PA when would I expect to see a second and third rut. Seems that the 1st rut is obviously happening right now in my area.

I shot a buck this year it hit the shoulder and didn’t get any vitals but we got it alive on trail camera coming back!
