Ep. 1055: Back 40 - Finding the Best Place on A Property That has Had Little to No Improvements

Wired To Hunt Podcast

Where should you start when you walk onto a completely raw property? In this episode, we break down the exact process for identifying the highest-impact locations for chasing whitetails. Joined by Adam Keith, Aaron Warbritton, Bill Winke, and Jeff Sturgis, we compare how each guest approaches a brand-new property, from reading topography and understanding bedding behavior to evaluating access, food, water, and hunting pressure. While each has a unique philosophy, you'll discover the common principles they all rely on when deciding where to begin.
