A chaotic November morning begins with a forgotten bow, a 400-yard sprint back to the truck, and a race against first light. Turkeys are gobbling, deer are moving, and the ridge is alive with rut activity.
It’s been a wild stretch for Kurt in late October! After discovering his main camera was completely out of focus, he’s back in the tree with a new setup—and just in time for a major cold front to hit. Between broken gear, freshly picked cornfields, and bucks starting to feel the rut, it’s a rollercoaster week in the whitetail woods.
Todd and Nick hit the woods with one goal — finally breaking their three-year streak of bad luck hunting together. From blown entry routes to silent mornings and swirling winds, this hunt started rough… but the rut can turn everything around fast.
The final week of October is here, and Justin is fired up! With the first hard frost of the year, scrapes popping up everywhere, and trail cams blowing up, the woods are coming alive. Follow along as Justin fine-tunes his setup, checks his bow, and heads out for multiple hunts during one of his favorite weeks of the season. From fresh rut activity and close encounters to an unexpected double on coyotes, this episode has a little bit of everything!
Todd races out to Colorado for a quick 3 day DIY mule deer hunt during their rifle season. Spot & stalk, ground blind, ambushing, Todd tries it all as he chases the same buck time and time again.
It’s mid-October and Justin hits the woods to figure out where the deer disappeared to. What starts as a quick camera check turns into a frustrating mystery — a wrecked trail cam, no fresh rubs or scrapes, and even a dead doe in the field. But persistence pays off as fresh sign finally shows up and the plan comes together.
The first cold front of October is finally here, and the guys are hitting the woods! Todd and Mike kick things off in Illinois, hoping cooler temps and a perfect north wind will get deer on their feet. Meanwhile, Justin and Ben are back at it on a hang-and-hunt mission, battling tricky wind directions and trying to make something happen before dark.
From Todd reflecting on selling his longtime farm to the team grinding through slow sits and unpredictable movement, this episode is all about staying patient and sticking to the plan. The deer might not be cooperating yet, but with the season heating up — it’s only a matter of time!
This hunt is extra special—it’s one of Todd's last chances on a farm that has taught him so much over the years. We set up over a rebuilt waterhole, dial in the stands, and wait out the heat in hopes of catching some early-season movement.
Follow along as he builds a DIY mock rub/scrape tree using PVC, Quikrete, and a white pine branch to create the perfect setup in front of one of his favorite stand locations.
