Your go-to Deer Hunting Podcast! The Southern Outdoorsmen is a show dedicated to diving deep on the topics that will make you a better hunter. We interview guys who are the "real deal", the best hometown deer hunters across the country - the guys who have consistent success deer hunting the same public lands, leases, hunting clubs, or family farms as everyone else. Every Monday we post an episode with fresh tips, tactics and strategies to give you an edge in the woods this fall.

The Southern Outdoorsmen Hunting Podcast

We're diving deep into the rugged world of mountain buck hunting with the one and only Jason Redd of Canton, North Carolina. This ain't your grandpa's deer hunt – we're talking steep terrain, thickets that'll swallow you whole, and the kind of challenge that'll make a grown man throw up his hands and quit.

Jason, a die-hard traditional bowhunter, spills the beans on how he consistently outsmarts these elusive mountain bucks. It's a game of patience, grit, and a whole lot of gut instinct. From unraveling the mysteries of deer behavior to mastering the art of mobile hunting in unforgiving landscapes, this episode is packed with the kind of hard-won wisdom that'll level up your hunting game.

Whether you're chasing whitetails in the Appalachians or dreaming of those big mountain bucks, there are going to be some great takeaways in this episode for you. Jason's stories of close encounters, near misses, and the mental fortitude it takes to hunt in these mountains will leave you ready to throw on a pack and hit the hills!

So grab your gear, lace up those boots, and get ready to conquer the mountains with the Southern Outdoorsman Podcast.
