In this episode, we recount the story of harvesting an old 7-point buck, a moment that combines the thrill of the hunt with the deep respect for wildlife. We discuss the challenges of hunting mature bucks, the strategies involved, and the significance of the hunt from both a hunter’s perspective and in terms of wildlife management. Along the way, we reflect on the lessons learned from years of experience in the field, the physical changes that come with age in deer, and what it means to take a mature animal. Tune in for an insightful discussion on the balance of conservation, ethics, and the tradition of hunting.
