HUNTR is the project we should have started years ago. It's our excuse to work less and hunt more. We're not the world's greatest hunters by any means but we're not afraid to get aggressive and learn from our mistakes. From northeastern whitetails to western muleys, we're dreaming up hunts, putting in for tags, finding ground, and doing everything in our power to get it done.
Podcasts drop Tuesday nights, season 1 drops fall 2021, & there's merch in the store if you dig our stuff!
We want to hear from you! Whether you've got a story to share, a question for the guys, or want to tell us what we're doing wrong, it's all good. - Спорт
That's why Bill is the GOAT. Bill's thoughts on hunting priorities and that the pot of gold is right in your back yard are legendary. Much respect to him.
The guy is just such a wealth of knowledge
Bill will always be known as a pioneer in hunting media. It’s undeniable now looking at what he created.
Bill is an Icon! Great episode guys
No doubt! The GOAT
Absolutely love Mr. Winke I was heartbroken when I quit seeing videos of him on Midwest Whitetails Daily. God bless you all
Bill is awesome. I fallow lots of guys how lernd from hem .
Bill is the franchise player
No doubt
No doubt
Gents - 7 months down the line from upload and national average of gas is north of $5/gallon, meat shortage, feds raising the interest rates…etc. The conversation about inflation was spot on.
Hahah scary isn’t it!
@@HUNTRPOD it’s brutal. The team should consider doing a podcast about inflation and how that impacts the upcoming deer season. Some folks might look to taking more doe given the hard times.
He’s way off on the saving/debt part. He acted like someone would save 30k in a savings account a year. That’s not how ya do it. I believe the stock market as a whole has averaged around 12% for the last 100 years. He himself said real estate is around 6%. Now imagine you were putting money in your mutual fund and then fell on hard times, after a period of time not being able to contribute to the mutual fund and they just take your whole investment. That’s what you are doing when you borrow money. He left out the risk factor and many of good man has went bankrupt and lost everything doing what he’s saying. Many have also gotten rich as well. Risky business
YOU THE MAN .... MR WINKE....
Love it!
One of my favorite podcast yet! Great job!!
What a great podcast guys! Great to see Bill again....maybe a regular guest on Huntr is enough for us to stay fulfilled. Excited to hear about his future farm all while learning how to get my first one!
Bill is awesome to talk to, what better way to start November
Septic tank would be a good one with a vent hole
Hahah not used right 😆
@@HUNTRPOD I mean that would be ideal lol just realized this video was put out 2years ago but love what you guys are doing, I’ve been in a black whole for weeks now getting caught up, keep up the good work!
Bill is a legend in the industry! Great podcast again!
Thanks man! Bill is November!
Hell yes!! I need to hear Bill’s voice at this time during the rut!! Lol
I feel like I listen to him in the truck before I go to the stand hahahahaha- Jeremy
HUNTR like what you guys have going on. Just an idea, but you guys should have some guys on outside of the hunting industry. A lot of big deer killers out there that may have some different ways of thinkin. Feel like people would enjoy hearing from just your everyday hunter.
Miss Bill on Midwest Whitetail. Great to see your doing well Bill. Hoping you get that land your looking for soon. We need you back on camera!!
I always enjoy Bill's wealth of knowledge and thoughtfulness. Some good talk on buying land and investing. I'm a teacher and bring home just $675/week. It's hard to find anything affordable when poor land is $5,000+ per acre in a competitive area. Bill's motto keeps hope alive, "Always dram big."
Don’t lose hope, if you want land you will find a way. As a teacher you have 3 months of summer to earn additional income. That could easily get you to a down payment and monthly payments. If you want it bad enough, you’ll find a way to push yourself to do it. RARELY will it be from a single income source. Stay positive! - Jeremy
@@HUNTRPOD I definitely agree. I currently train and sell horses in the summer. We have a strong Amish community in the area and parcels rarely go up for sale. The Amish are coming from all over the country and Canada paying top dollar, without the parcel ever being listed for sale. I've begun using the GIS, Onx and Huntstand to research parcels and reach out to landowners directly. It seems to be the only way to get ahead of it.
We understand that first hand! What part of the country are you in?
@@HUNTRPOD central Michigan
One thing we’ve been adamant about is making contacts. We know some of the whitetail properties guys in that area well. Reach out when you are ready to look, and they will be a valuable resource. Also be flexible with where you buy. Anywhere within 3hours of me is fair game.
Been waiting to hear from Bill it's like when you're dad tells you something you better listen even if you don't do it that way
Thomas we were so jacked to have him back
Bill, thank you for all the info over the years!
I think I speak for just about everybody that we support you in any way you chose to have us as well as respect you and any thing you chose to do or not to do. Definitely would love to continue learning from your expertise, new adventures, and down to earth personality! Stay you!
Look into the large water storage tanks for your underground tent. They have them 1,000-5,000 gallons and many guys use old ones to make deer blinds. They have a large opening in the top that could be used for entry.
Better than the ⚰️
@@HUNTRPOD lol.... definitely
He is right about the skin on skin in sleeping bag. I learned it in Marine Corps cold weather training to have as little clothes as possible in the sleeping bag. You can keep your clothes in the bag with you and then just get dressed in your sleeping bag. Other key thing to look into is a "iso mat" for ground to body separation. The ground too will suck a TON of warmth from your body. Good luck. Sounds like a fun time.
Great podcast Bill is the man!! Definitely miss following him on midwest whitetail.
Just started reading his blogs on his website after this podcast. I'll be going back and listening to the first episode you did with him! Keep up the great work with your show
Thanks Wes! Greatly appreciated
I think we all need these updates from Bill. He is great. I hope he gets into just making some raw, weekly blog videos or something. He has so much knowledge and is great and sharing it. Especially if he buys some land, would be awesome to see start to finish how he does things. Kansas was awesome by the way guys. 182 1/8"....
😳 182?! Info@wearehuntr.com some pics for a shout out bro!
I have friends in northern wi that for years they sleep in there box blinds the night before opening day!! Works like a charm everyone around them pushes them into them!!!
Love that!
Bill nailed it..."when corn is $5 land is this much when corn is $3 ag land is this much....that's the way it used to be. Now with so few huge farmers they all think that they need the land to survive or use for manure rights, driving the ag land cost up exponentially. Great interview boys!! good luck this season

You don't have to listen to this podcast very long to see how Bill Jared Jeremy are alright kind of guys, keep up the good work fellows, very enjoyable.
Thanks Roger! We just try to be us!
Bill is a class act and his perspective on having your priorities straight about deer hunting is refreshing, especially in this day and age of “influencers/you tubers/podcasters/pro-staffers” and all of these random people who are now involved in the “industry” who are mainly chasing clout/sponsorships/relevance using “hunting” as a vehicle to achieve those ends. I miss his perspective and him being on camera but I completely get how burnt out he must have gotten.
If you love something, then you’re strong enough to let it be free. And we all love Bill lol
Good discussion. Hunters can no longer drive-by land conversion projects and brush-them off, that's your kids future getting paved-over. Who knows, someday a loaf a bread might cast 80 bucks!
Land investment is something that’s not easy but could be worth it

I use Therm-if but yes those are awesome! - Jeremy
Early congrats on the buck seen the insta story!
I’ll (Jeremy) step in since it’s not my buck, Jared freaking earned this one and it’s a STUD!
lmao @2:03:33 ...hahaha good s***!! Nailed it!!
great podcast guys. I have no doubt the views peak when bill is on, the man is a legend and super humble. I laughed when bill said "how hard is it to become a plumber??" here in Canada its a minimum of a 4 year and roughly 7000 hour apprenticeship program, and then have to pass a final exam. sooo pretty hard really lol. but you are all spot on, hard work pays off, and he who bitches about others and does nothing will go nowhere. Good luck in the woods and keep up the good work on the podcast's
Haha love that man! Freaking real hard to be a Plummer. Thanks for listening
Yes. I may have been hasty with the plumber analogy but hopefully people get the point. You need a way to make extra money to apply to your land purchases.
This podcast made me laugh so hard 🤣… where can I pre order the bear den??!!
Too bad that bill is no longer making videos. He has a great personality and enjoyable to watch. Can’t believe he still has the crazy drive to sleep at the tree.
He’s unreal…hope it pays off!
What’s your guys thoughts on the leasing vs buying argument when I can lease 150-200 acres for the same price as owning 30-40 acres per year where I’m at in New York?
Great questions Adam! If you have time, you buy and then sell for profit and flip for a bigger tract. That’s said it depends the quality of the lease. I don’t think I’ve found a lease that is worth the money multiple years. - Jeremy
@@HUNTRPOD Thanks for the reply! Here where I lease in New York there is a timber company that owns close to 40,000 acres and they let you have pretty much free run of the property other than cutting down trees. Makes it a hard choice for me.
Whitetail property's. They do that.they have there friends or family do it. I walk away if they are involved
In the military we are taught to strip down when its really cold and stuff your boots and clothes in the bottom of the sleeping bag, stripping down in a sleeping bag will keep you warmer.
Exactly! Lol
Buy land and Bitcoin
Haha I’m out of the loop on the cryptocurrency!
Any synthetic scent working?
We really like buck fever. Just our opinion
Bill REALLY just dished every plumber in the NATION !!! - "IT CAN'T BE THAT HARD TO BECOME A PLUMBER" - Says the guy that's never tried to become a plumber - and I'M A WINKE FAN - come on
Lol, i mean it's just pipes right?🤣😉
@@HUNTRPOD - yep all ya need to know is SHIT runs down hill & pay day is on Friday - Don't chew your finger nails - here's your permit, lol = I do enjoy his out look
I just grabbed something as a quick analogy, didn't really think about it. No offense to plumbers. I have plumbed a couple houses I have owned and realize it is no simple thing to do it well.
Do you guys have an email I would love to show you a michigan stud I shot today 11/5/21
If you have IG you can DM us at @wearehuntr
@@HUNTRPOD okay it's gonna be off my girls I don't do social media her name is Danielle
Sent
why would you just reveal your uncle's lease property is trash? lol
Honesty lol
I hate to see that bill feels that he must compete still. At this point, he could make videos with a GoPro and help many many people. With no sponsors. The world has gone to the crapper. Everything is about money. And money is more useless now than it’s ever been. Know what I mean ? I dunno, Bill is smart and I’m sure he will come up with something to put the exclamation point on his legacy. But as of now it seems he got beat up by you tubers and simply gave up. Have fun, hunt when you want or can and share knowledge.
He’s got a sense of freedom about him that’s really refreshing!
@@HUNTRPOD retired life will do that 😁
