Steve and Johnny discuss how to anticipate other public land hunters and how they have had to evolve their strategies around these newly found or experienced hunters on the landscape. Jon explains how the tactics talked about apply to both public and private landowners, and how the approaches set up a foundational strategy that will help hunter’s find success. Johnny discusses why deer select certain areas and when to be more aggressive.
