Episode #7 - Whitetail Tactics with Joe Elsinger "JoeRE"
Hello, a new podcast is up with Hunting Beast Member Joe Elsinger "JoeRE"

Well know Hunting Beast Member Joe Elsinger also know as JoeRE on the forum shares his tips and tactics for hunting Hill Country bucks in Northeast Iowa.
Joe shares his evolution as a hunter. Much of the time spent growing up on a farm in Northeast Iowa honed his outdoorsmanship from tracking, trapping, shooting, glassing, and living off the land.
What I learned:
- There is no substitute for time on foot, and time in the outdoors all year long. Scout and prep twice as many areas as you want to hunt.
- Pick your properties often, and early. Get boots on the ground to survey what is available.
- Plan your approach. Monitor more properties than you can hunt. This allows you the flexibility to pin point hunts during the season.
- Differentiate early season bedding, fall bedding, and pre-rut bedding etc..
- Know how thermals behave in hill country can allow you to hunt less than favorable winds.
- Understand how your food sources will impact the areas you are hunting; crop rotation, acorn crops, and more.
- A minimalist approach to equipment. Take what you use not necessarily what you think you need.
- In hill country, the bigger the hills, the harder the access, the less hunting pressure
- Tracks can allow you identify specific deer on various properties in combination with observations (glassing, shining, cameras)
- First time sits are critical
- We all have to play a part in sharing our outdoor heritage with our family, friends, and beyond.

This will be a good one.
You can fool some of the bucks, all of the time, and fool all of the bucks, some of the time, however you certainly can't fool all of the bucks, all of the time.

Great podcast. You really seem like a down to earth guy and liked all the info. Having two young kids myself I definitely understand the balance between family and hunting. It makes you have to hunt smarter.

Re: Episode #7 - Whitetail Tactics with Joe Elsinger "JoeRE"
Thanks guys. I appreciate it. I did it hoping we could entice a few more active members on here to do one as well. A person learns a huge amount from all these different perspectives I think. By the way I found out its darn hard to do a podcast and stick to an outline, I spent more time on some things and skimmed over a lot of other stuff that I had wanted to go into detail on. Guess that is proof I am not a polished public speaker. Mario did his best to herd me in the the right direction but he had his work cut out for him. I really wanted to communicate why I hunt the way I do, think I managed that but then didn't have much time to dive into the finer points of tactical stuff.
If you have any questions ask away, we can use this thread for that. Frankly I think I communicate better when I have a little time to think something over then write it down, just the way I am wired I guess lol.
