What. buck sign Scott needs to see in conjunction with feed sign to get him excited

Love hearing Scott Seales on the show.
Fantastic move putting the podcasts in video format on CZcams
Great evening guys. We almost dodged the weeds!
Lol
Man those were some great questions! Great job guys on disecting the way of early season hunting! Way to go guys
Omg I was in my summit one evening an kept falling asleep. I was scared I’d wake up at 10pm with a search party shining flashlights at me. I set my alarm for 2 minutes after shooting time. 😂
🤣🤣🤣
Just to let you guts know I was listening to your podcast and heard the "feed tree" advice. I went out looking for "feed trees' and found a few. One of them made a nice set up based on the wind and along came four bucks. Opening day Wisconsin no less.
I can see what Scott’s saying about the hardwood tops out there. You find high protein green briar is one of the few things that grow under it like little browse plots. Now I’m not totally against doing pine with fire in areas with some faster growing hardwoods like maple and sweetgum that shows up anyways. Just because the amount of phosphorous available from the regrowth. But cutting older growth forest these days just shouldn’t happen.
Y’all never used a Tree Lounge absolutely the most comfortable stand ever!😳🤣
That stand falls under the category of “too” comfortable imo lol
💯
Great podcast. I enjoyed it smz’s are deffinitely travel corridors and acorn holes.
got to find the feed trees
Won’t be long until it’s time to hit the woods with a good pair of binos to start locating them
@thesouthernoutdoorsmen when does one begin the acorn scout?
Nice lumber! Always enjoy the content!
Thanks for watching!
Mine
Freshest is the bestest lol
Yep. Maybe we oughta make that into a T shirt design 😂
Was the podcast with Travis on CZcams?
What kind of whiskey you all sippin on?
What word did they bleep out?
The name of the public they hunt
U know wt seperates the big buck killers from everyone else who bow hunts! The answer is when he says he don’t give a damn about timber rattlers walk-in to his spot!
What's smz?
Stream side management zone.
Logging operations cannot log too close to stream or water source.
The only mature trees that do not get cut.
The dude sittin next to Scott sounds like joe Biden when he talks! 😂 he gets lost in a sentence and doesn’t make sense at anything he says lol
Should’ve cut his section out and saved 30 minutes
that shit was painful
@@shugman3090 rite!
Physically painful to listen to Cody talk…
