Dan attacks Indiana public land during the rut and gives his full version of the public land challenge. Get "THE UNDERTAKER" T-shirt here: hunting-beast.creator-spring....
One thing this show really portrays is how much timing has to do with a hunt... Getting in late on the 1st hunt put me in the wrong spot. I could see my error in the tree looking at the map on my phone, and then when the deer came in just as expected it locked in that shoulda-woulda-coulda- factor... Then, the next hunt, even though plenty early, the buck came in while climbing the tree and spooked... And of coarse the hunt for the big ten point that would of been dead if I were literally a couple minutes earlier... Timing and a little luck are bigger factors in success than most like to admit.
My sister, a first time hunter learned the two more minutes rule a couple times last season lol. Thankfully she did get a decent 9 point for her first deer. Thanks Dan for taking us along, I call that a win.
Out of all the knowledge you drop throughout the entire video and then say and do such a rookie move by letting farm equipment ruin your hunt. I would think you would’ve known that Dan. Anyways great vid and terrible luck with not getting in that tree sooner. If you wlda weighed what you do know you wlda made it there in time lol 😉
Learned a lot from you and the hunting public. My 13 year old son shot a really nice 9 point this year thanks to using some of your tactics. So thanks from the both of us.
Dan that was cool. Love how you go over your strategy and tactics relative to finding areas, scouting, determining sign freshness and all the variables that go into hunting big bucks on public land, out of state and on new ground!! Great videography by the way too!!
I LOVE watching videos like this because it shows all that goes on behind the scenes in bow hunting deer. GREAT if you have a patch of woods to hunt that holds a lot of deer and you have permission to kick off all OTHER bow hunters (which is very difficult to come by unless you are connected to the property owner who has CHOICE deer hunting property -- or own it yourself). Then you have dogs running the deer; chasing them off to the next STATE! That's another huge "challenge". Then you have the "time element". Working people have little time to scout and hunt DURING the rut. Where deer might have been in October does NOT mean they will be there in the rut usually because of "pressure" -- starting the last week of October and going through the first week of November for most northern states. Hats off to dedicated bow hunters. Any meat you bag you have EARNED! And thanks, Dan, and your partner for filming the "behind the scenes" that most bow hunting videos don't show. There is MUCH, MUCH more than seeing a video with a buck coming in -- taking the right shot -- then finding him dade. (That's a correct misspell for Mississippi talk). Hope you make MORE videos!
Loved this Dan, thanks for always sharing every experience no matter the outcome… it really helps and makes it relatable so we can take and fix from common mistakes and make better outcomes in the woods! Michigan Bow Proceeds to kick my ass with simple mistakes I can’t seem to shake…
Great video as always. This year season 21-22 was more challenging than most here in Kansas because the leaves stayed on until almost if not into December but I'm always up for a good challenge! Never easy to admit I ate a tag sandwich. Only the 2nd one in my 62 years on the planet. We'll get "em" Dan
Awesome video, every time I watch you hunt i pick up a little something and learn more. Can't wait for the season to open again. Thanks for the awesome footage brotha. Absolutely hands down the best channel on CZcams
@@StealthTRD Great name. I saw that movie when it came out in theaters back in….when was it? ‘71? ‘72? My daughter actually found it on Blu-Ray and bought it for me last Christmas.
The part that will stick with me is in the intro , for way too many years it was all about the size of the rack I could get .But like you said as I get a little long in the tooth it's so much more. Love your content. I hope you have a great season Brother .
Love hunting my home state of Indiana , hill country of southern indiana is extremely challenging and very rewarding!! Promise Dan you will be happy with the rewards you reap with your unfinished business love the video
The Sugar Ridge public hunting area in Southern Indiana is a good area for big bucks, I like area 5 in Warrick County. This area is reclaimed coal land, very hard to hunt, with limited visibility in the spoil banks, planted in pines. There are some open areas with hardwoods. I have taken a Pope& Young ten point, and a 13 point with a shotgun in this area, and seen other good bucks here as well. A 160 class buck was taken with a bow in this area also.
As a Hoosier , i can say Michael Waddell said several years back , "the next world record will be shot in Indiana" ! But , i gotta say "there are NO deer here . Don't waste your time in Indiana" ! 😉
@@JimBowSlice no sir ? I live about 10 miles from where the Huff buck was killed . Have you seen it ? He had that deer brought in from Iowa though . There are NO BIG DEER in Indiana ! 😉😂
Well, one of the next world record bucks was killed here. That shotgun buck up north. Then we had that one last year that was almost a world record bow buck I think it was. Every year I see the next biggest buck I've ever seen lol. I hunt mostly public to.
@@knobstonestickbows4962 bow kill was Huff . He's actually a country music singer too . Every interview i've seen with him , he's extremely humble ! Great young man and well deserving . May be my opinion but , i think Indiana will have the record within 10 years . I feel with the current limits , we have a perfect balance of "trophy hunters" and weekend warriors that shoot whatever they see ! (They've earned that and i don't blame any man for putting food on the table !) But , i hope it's a Hoosier . As long as the big dogs keep going to Iowa , Kansas , Illinois and Ohio ... we got a shot ! 😁
I'm glad to see Indiana's flying under-the-radar slightly unlike Ohio Illinois Kentucky and most of the other Midwest states I live in Kentucky and really wish it was flying under the radar, but that ship sailed a long time. I am fortunate to be able to hunt a 300 a acre farm in Central Kentucky all by myself in an area that doesn't get a ton of pressure unlike the western part of the state that gets pounded.
Had a similar situation with a similar buck watched a buck bed on the down wind side of a old rail road tracks turned bike/walking path. Had to use the trail to get around to the buck he smelled me for sure so I got to my spot thinking surely he was gone hung my second stick look over and he's broad side at 15 yards looking into my soul and he turns and walks back to where he was and didn't run. So I tried to sneak up on him and he let me walk up to him again he just stood there and it never dawned on me that there was a hot doe and she couldn't see me... Always learning
Awesome! Yes we still have some good people in Indiana! Indiana is the sleeper state, but don't tell anyone! Lol we don't have no deer here! Fun fact, you can take 2 bucks in Indiana, but only in certain area, Urban you can, which is a few counties in Northern area, but you have to shoot a doe 1st, it's called earn a buck
Also I'm not sure if you are former military or know someone who is but if not you can keep an eye on their DNR website for a draw hunts at camp Atterbury if you can get the camp Atterbury highly recommend it! I've shot one of my biggest bucks to date there! I big 16 pointer, I called claws
Corn and beans are so prelivant in our state Most guys won’t hike 2 or 3 miles to kill a buck. I can sit a cornfield edge in my old trusty stand and kill a decent buck every year. But rumors say monsters come out of that huge hellhole of a forest for those willing to try.
No party hunting here and there are about 400,000 less hunters here Dan than in WI. that matters. We had 2 bucks for decades and still had real good age class with bigger bodies and antlers for the most part as what I saw for years in WI or MI when hunting there. When the one buck rule came in only about 28% of all hunters supported it now its about 50 / 50 if you look at polls rather than QDMA propaganda .Also so you know the first 10to 12 days of Nov and last couple days of Oct are traditionally the very best rut action here in our state of IN. Before and after that its very slow to say it mildly .Also the tree slightly uphill behind you looked to be better and give you shots both sides of the ridge just saying .nice video .Good choice leaving the big woods /hils to concentrate on th eland next to ag as well here ag not swamps or hardwoods are king .
Hey Dan i love your content!! I’ve been learning lots!! I been hunting since I was a kid but only recently in the last 3 years have I really been a sponge and learn everything I possibly can to be a better woodsmen!! I was born and raised in Wisconsin! Currently in Clark County rn but I have tons of questions about thermals and topo and you know that kinda thing. Ive been hunting this buck for going on 2 years now and I’ve had one in counter with him and only a hand full of pictures of him but I know he’s there!! I’ve only ever harvested a doe with my bow and that was only recently. Like a week ago or so. I really don’t have anyone close to me to learn from so I tend to watch lots of informational videos on here but you have to watch who your “learning” from and a know? I’d love to show you some topo maps of my area see if you could help me understand what my thermals an stuff are doing. I’d you got the time
Sorry Dan but it's nice to see I'm not the only one getting screwed by dogs and people and just stuff sometimes lol but it makes it all the better when you suceed get back along that river next year and bust that ten pointer lol
Question...when you see those fingers/points coming off the leeward side of ridges like on your map. Do you usually assume that's good bedding as long as the cover is there too??
Thank you very much for putting up deer hunting footage, turkey hunting videos everyone else is putting up are boring especially when I can go to the store and buy a turkey for under $15. Those damn mylar balloons, was out shed hunting with my nephew yesterday and commented on how we can not go to a piece of woods where you do not see one or two of those F'ing things in the woods. I never see anyone buying any of those things in a store so where the hell they all coming from. Once again greatly appreciate the deer content this time of year.
Look at them as a good sign, they are there for a reason, and that same reason is what makes a mature buck want to bed in that same setup, it have everything to do with wind currents and thermals pulling everything to that specific spot
@@russelllangworthy8855 What makes you feel like it’s nonsense? A lot of times the balloons were found after the fact, or while running across a mess of hot sign through a bedding area, and then you mosey around some and stumble on a dang balloon.. I’m not sure how long you’ve been following the beast forums but there’s been threads on there about the balloon theory as well, and at the end of the day it is a theory, much like a lot of things to do with hunting, we’ll never really know what these deer are feeling or sensing.. another crazy off the wall one is the trees that have been struck by lighting in the timber, and bucks holding in the area where that has happened, one guy I know even shot a few deer out of a particular tree, and when he went back to that area to scout, the tree had been struck by lighting, and multiple years this occurred.. pretty freaky if you ask me but it’s all about how you want to view and dissect the coincidence of nature, pardon my French but there is some crazy S#!T that happens in nature, that us as humans will probably never be able to scratch the surface of understanding..
@@kylemurray7086 I think it’s nonsense because helium is temperature sensitive. Wherever the balloons happen to be floating when the temperature starts to drop is where they’re going to come down. I’ve seen balloons in the middle of fields that had nothing to do with thermals. If you want to believe it that’s your prerogative. Tell me this, do you also believe in HECS suits? A lot of guys do and that’s something else that I think is just another gimmick.
@@kylemurray7086 Btw, whereabouts are you in the Thumb? My father used to own land in Tuscola County and Sanilac County. Deckerville Rd in Tuscola and I can’t remember the road in Sanilac. I killed a lot of deer up there in the ‘70s and ‘80s.
Dan when u comeback to Indy I want in it’d be awesome to get to hunt with ya for a day or two HUNTIN BEAST!! Ps still tryin to get a hoodie, the site u suggested didn’t have a xL
I was watching this video and was just curious what part of Ohio you were hunting I have hunted Ohio for years now and it has been really good to me I live in Kingsport tn.
Dan had you given much thought to hunting lower that first hunt and trying to catch the thermals dropping at last light since you were already getting in late ?
That 1st hunt, when I set up I was bought & sold they were coming from a way that would not be effected by my dropping thermal, however, after studying the map closer, and not in a rush while in the tree, a sinking feeling came that they would come from below and pass by thru the valley, and felt it was to late to move. I was slightly over the crest from that hill though and thought there was a good chance the thermal drop would pull the other way... Obviously not based on the outcome of that hunt. Goes to show that when your rushed you make mistakes.
I live and hunt in Mississippi. I'm proud to say we get 3 bucks per year and 5 doe. I myself hunt government/public land and kill big deer every year. I hunt north west and northeast corners of the state you should try it out down here you'd love it and out of state lic Is very affordable.
Dan I have hunted public all my life. You should only scout a property after season.not during season. After you get set up wind is right rut is starting here comes someone walking through the woods and says I'm scouting. It will mess things up for folks that done it right. Moving all over a area blows it out.and hunters that hunt that property don't thank much of it.people access public areas from ways unknown. Car count means nothing..
Its important to realize you are not the only hunter out there. Its public land, and not everyone hunts your way. We have small game guys squirrel hunting, chasing bunnies, turkeys, etc. Hikers, bird watchers, and yes, even other deer hunters use the property in differing ways... Thats what makes the challenge. If your looking to buy a der, get a lease or go to a fenced ranch... I do not wander thru bedding areas or messing up hunts for others, but no one can kill anything if they want look at an area and see if there are deer there before they choose to hunt. When you get into your prescouted spot and there aint no sign or there is a stand hanging there, you will move too... And simply, I use the methods that work best for putting bone on the wall in the areas I hunt. If something works better for you, do it, I would never try to stop you from enjoying our public land i n what ever way you choose...
@@thehuntingbeast ahh I knew someone hit a deer lol man watching the beast channel has helped me so much this year as a first year hunter got me a 10 pt towards the end of rut cause of the beast style thanks again
Everyone who thinks Indiana isn't good needs to know the 2nd all time typical was killed in Indiana in 2021 scoring 211. It also is the number one typical ever killed in the United States.
I quit all soda... I quit all junk food... I have one meal a day where I eat what I want. For breakfast I have an apple or orange, or a handful of grapes, and when I get hungry I drink a bottle of water to fill me up.
One thing this show really portrays is how much timing has to do with a hunt... Getting in late on the 1st hunt put me in the wrong spot.

I'd like to hunt around Terre haute Indiana, don't even know of public land around there but traveling through there it's beautiful
Dan you are the best
I love what you have done for the hunting community
I hunted Ohio from '13-17'. Deer numbers have really dropped. Esp.on public lands.
“At least it ain’t raining.” That says it all.
Thanks for wearing the ‘Thin Blue Line’…👊🏻🏹⚫️🔵⚫️

Where did you go
Awesome! Yes we still have some good people in Indiana! Indiana is the sleeper state, but don't tell anyone! Lol we don't have no deer here!

You gotta come down to Virginia Dan and have a challenge.
How do the tags work in Indiana for non residents? Cost. Is it a draw?
Over the counter... I can't remember the cost, but it was bot horrible.

HUNTIN BEAEAEAAEAST!!!!!
I text the number is that what I was supposed to do?
Works for me. Wasn't any sound for the first couple trys tho
I was watching this video and was just curious what part of Ohio you were hunting I have hunted Ohio for years now and it has been really good to me I live in Kingsport tn.
Harvest brother harvest
My uncle just killed a monster 15pt on public on opening day of bow season there is some big deer in Indiana
Didn't catch where you were hunting In Ohio. But being an Ohio resident, I can tell you it's very dependent on which county you're in.
Video won’t play it Says “no stream tap to retry”
Wondering why Dan is not hunting Illinois public land
Probably because of the price for non resident. I wanted to come hunt there once, then I checked into the pricing and it’s pretty crazy
Isn't Iowa like $800
@@lyleswavel320 By the time you pay for enough preference points, it’s just over $900.
Good here.
Biden sent that doe after the Beast lol glad your ok Dan
Dan had you given much thought to hunting lower that first hunt and trying to catch the thermals dropping at last light since you were already getting in late ?
That 1st hunt, when I set up I was bought & sold they were coming from a way that would not be effected by my dropping thermal, however, after studying the map closer, and not in a rush while in the tree, a sinking feeling came that they would come from below and pass by thru the valley, and felt it was to late to move. I was slightly over the crest from that hill though and thought there was a good chance the thermal drop would pull the other way... Obviously not based on the outcome of that hunt. Goes to show that when your rushed you make mistakes.
I live and hunt in Mississippi. I'm proud to say we get 3 bucks per year and 5 doe.
I myself hunt government/public land and kill big deer every year. I hunt north west and northeast corners of the state you should try it out down here you'd love it and out of state lic Is very affordable.
Well hope its works
At 51:07 in the video is that a hunter sitting on the ground by the buck on the right?
I guess you will be back in the Hoosier state in 22.
39 days to go
When does he stop talking?
Dan I have hunted public all my life. You should only scout a property after season.not during season. After you get set up wind is right rut is starting here comes someone walking through the woods and says I'm scouting. It will mess things up for folks that done it right. Moving all over a area blows it out.and hunters that hunt that property don't thank much of it.people access public areas from ways unknown. Car count means nothing..
Its important to realize you are not the only hunter out there. Its public land, and not everyone hunts your way. We have small game guys squirrel hunting, chasing bunnies, turkeys, etc. Hikers, bird watchers, and yes, even other deer hunters use the property in differing ways... Thats what makes the challenge. If your looking to buy a der, get a lease or go to a fenced ranch... I do not wander thru bedding areas or messing up hunts for others, but no one can kill anything if they want look at an area and see if there are deer there before they choose to hunt. When you get into your prescouted spot and there aint no sign or there is a stand hanging there, you will move too... And simply, I use the methods that work best for putting bone on the wall in the areas I hunt. If something works better for you, do it, I would never try to stop you from enjoying our public land i n what ever way you choose...
You need to hunt south eastern Ohio
Dan was there a giveaway or is that a mishap
That was not us... Its a scam.
Thanks man
