Welcome back to Hunt The Season — the podcast built around deer hunting, whitetail strategies, and the hunting camp tradition. In this episode, I sit down with Ben Martin, creator of the Hunt Regs App, to talk about how this powerful hunting tool can help you track deer movement, pattern bucks, and plan hunts more effectively this fall.

We break down exactly how the Hunt Regs App works, why it was built, and how it can give you an edge in the woods. By entering your trail camera data and hunting observations, the app helps you identify deer patterns, peak activity times, and the best days to hunt your target buck.

Inside the app we cover: 

• Hunt Journal – log deer sightings, hunts, and observations 

• Filter & Pattern – use trail cam data to predict deer movement 

• Moon Phases – understand how lunar cycles affect deer activity 

• Graph & Analysis – make sense of your data to hunt smarter • 14-Day Hourly Weather Forecast – with wind, pressure, temperature & more

Whether you’re a public land hunter or managing private ground, this episode will show you how the Hunt Regs App can help you scout smarter, hunt harder, and stack the odds in your favor this season.
