Am i the only one that thinks its messed up that he shot a buck, "found one drop of blood", didnt call a dog, went to hunt another buck and then just so happened to find him the end of season..? Smh
I love this podcast because I relate to his hunting style more then any other I've heard. I've been using two different brands leafy Gillie suits Top/bottom to break up my outline . I feel like deer look right past me 95% of the time. I also carry a back pack with a small chair and a turkey half blind. I've been hunting this way since 2008. I also carry my saddle platform at times for a chair.
I got my 1st ghillie 6 year's ago. And at the time I had only been hunting for 2 year's. My 1st sit in it I was just off a deer trail up against the side of a big bush. I never heard anything coming until all a sudden I felt something breathing on my neck it was so close. Then it stomp 3 time's trying to get me to move. I was frozen solid for what seemed like forever. But it was maybe a min, so I slowly turn around and he was just gone like he was never even there. I've gave up stand hunting ever since. I've also had doe walk 5ft in front of me without a care in the world. I've got 3 ghillies and 2 leaf suites to cover any part of the hunting season. I'm the only one out of my friends the use them and they all give me 💩 about it. But I've harvested more deer in the last 5 year's then all 4 of them combined. I went from tree stands, to blinds to ground hunting only. It's not for everyone but nothing ever is. Great episode guy's
Thank you guys for having me on!!! I was extremely and it took me to almost the 2 hour mark to get warmed up. Lol. I’m 50 years old and I’ve listened to you guys since episode one when y’all only had the podcast. You guys have taught me more than any person / podcast I’ve ever listened to in my lifetime. You guys are instrumental helping guys in Alabama to be a successful hunter. The Southern Outdoorsman is a voice to all the SouthernBigBuckKillers💯
@@madisondad6070 XL. I’m 6-3 220 I have extremely long arms for my frame as well. I usually mix and match my Ghillie depending where I’m hunting. I usually wear my phantom top all day just about every hunt & it’s very comfortable and very breathable as well. Usually where I’m hunting it’s hard to wear in my traditional Ghillie because it’s so thick & covered in briars. I’ve noticed the first lite works perfect to get in there quiet. I will pack in a second Ghillie just incase I decide to hunt a different colored vegetation. You def won’t go wrong buying the First lite.
Used those gillie suits with Josh from the untamed last fall and THEY WORK he has a video on how he makes his on the channel I truly believe you can get away with a lot more on the ground then most people think especially if the conditions are right for ground hunting
@@justinellis7497 we talk about SMZ a lot so definitely watch that episode so you have a better understanding when it comes up on the show. A lot of people ask us the same question so we will probably make a video on just that topic soon. Thanks for watching!
Wow, done watching this episode. Very disappointed deer was just left because didn't want to do the work and go hunt different buck. Very unsportsman like.
This is Todd btw. I didn’t go into all the details but I looked for the buck over a week with no Luck. We had very bad weather around the time and I even looked during that. It’s on public and others were also hunting the same area. This was on a very crowded / pressured wma. After over a week of looking there was nothing else to do but wait till after season. This area has a ton of hunters constantly and after a week of looking. I could ruin the area for everyone else. Just FYI. You shouldn’t judge a person without knowing details.

How do you incorporate the hunters orange while wearing the suit?
Great episode, fellas! Y'all consistently ask the best questions out of just about any other hunting podcast I've seen. Fuels great conversations 🍻

Ground effects chair buy 03 outfitters and a Walmart folding stool is the 2 seats I use ground hunting in bama.
Ground hunt on wet rainy days thru a split trunk tree.
This was an awesome episode
We are glad you enjoyed it!
Stick to the treestands. The first 5 years of ghille suit hunting blows your big bucks up! And then their gone!
This dude needs to start a youtube channel
