In this episode, Mike and Holden dive into a wide range of hunting topics, starting with Mike’s recent waterfowl adventure in Canada—his first official hunt of this kind. Mike traveled to Saskatoon, where he had the incredible opportunity to hunt 8 different species of birds. Over the course of just 2 ½ days, his group of three hunters harvested over 120 birds. He shares the details of hunting sandhill cranes, snow geese, speckle-bellied geese, Ross’s geese, lesser and large Canadian geese, mallards, and pintails. Mike also highlights the differences between hunting waterfowl in the U.S. versus Canada, including navigating travel across the border with firearms and the process of bringing harvested birds back home.

The conversation then shifts to their recent whitetail hunting experiences in Alabama and Georgia, with a focus on the Georgia rifle opener and the notable cold front that passed through the Southeast. Mike and Holden break down the importance of sitting until late morning during these conditions, as the changing thermals and day winds often cause bucks to adjust their bedding locations.

In the latter part of the episode, they discuss some of the hot topics circulating in the hunting community, including the much-talked-about Alexander Buck—a massive 200-inch whitetail taken in Ohio under illegal circumstances—and the serious consequences that followed the improper harvest of this remarkable deer.

Key Topics:

• Mike’s first waterfowl hunt in Saskatoon, Canada: 8 species and over 120 birds in 2 ½ days.
• Cross-border hunting logistics: traveling with firearms and bringing back harvested birds.
• A breakdown of species hunted: sandhill cranes, snow geese, speckle-bellied geese, Ross’s geese, lesser and large Canadian geese, mallards, and pintails.
• Whitetail hunting updates from Alabama and Georgia: Georgia rifle opener and the Southeast cold front.
• Importance of hunting into late morning as bucks shift bedding locations.
• The Alexander Buck controversy: a 200-inch whitetail illegally harvested in Ohio and the resulting consequences.

This episode is packed with hunting insights and real-life experiences that will resonate with both waterfowl and whitetail hunters alike!

On this episode we talk with Noah Hill from North Carolina. Noah has a history of hunting and fishing just about anything and everything. He killed an incredible non typical deer in North Carolina with a lot of character and a lot of junk. Noah has been after this deer for a few years and hunts 100% mobile with no presets on the private land that he hunts. He hunted this deer for a few days and kept inching closer and closer until he got into the kill zone after changing his access to better get after this buck. He shot the buck at 10 yards with his bow.
