We’re nearly halfway through Pennsylvania’s deer firearms season, but hunters still have plenty of opportunities to get into the field and fill tags!

Range Management Coordinator Luke Johnson and Deputy Director of Field Operations Dave Mitchell join host Matt Morrett to discuss their changing strategy as hunting season progresses, go-to guns and gear throughout the year, and why no amount of technology can replace putting boots on the ground.

 

Episode Highlights:

  • How to adjust your tactics based on hunting pressure and time of year
  • Ways to up your odds for success without relying on expensive technology
  • Tips for taking advantage of Pennsylvania’s unique flintlock season
  • The connection between healthy habitat and big bucks
  • Small game, waterfowl, and predator hunting opportunities available this winter
