The Hunting Beast Podcast Episode #12 - Tracking Whitetail with Todd Havel
Well known Hunting Beast member Todd Havel also known as Magicman54494 takes us into his world of tracking Whitetails.
In this podcast Todd shares his tips, tactics, and experiences while hunting Whitetails on foot in the Big Woods of Northern Wisconsin, and Minnesota.
Todd talks at length about:
- The proper gear you need
- The learning curve on tracking
- How to pick a track
- Tracking - pace, noise, wind, and observations
- What tracking has taught him about bedding
- What tracking has taught him about mature buck behavior
During all this Todd shares some great memories he's made tracking and killing mature Whitetails
What I learned:
- There is no substitute for learning in the field, if you want to study tracks, you need to get boots on the ground
- Mature deer move with a purpose, and often follow a pattern based on topography and learned instincts
- Pack light, but be prepared for the unexpected
- Think outside the box, hunt like a predator, mimic deer movement and behavior, and embrace change
- Track characteristics and how tracks age
- What a track can tell you about an animal, age, gate, and time of movement
