    He Shot my Buck Out From Under Me : Aaron Olsen Next Step Outdoors
    Feb 4 2026
    The Bowhunter Chronicles Podcast - Episode 387: He Shot my Buck Out From Under Me : Aaron Olsen Next Step Outdoors In this episode of the Bowhunter Chronicles podcast, Adam sits down to talk with Aaron Olsen of Next Step Outdoors to break down the real-world challenges of public land hunting, covering strategy, mindset, and decision-making from start to finish of a hard-fought hunt. The discussion explores balancing family life and hunting season, managing expectations, and adapting when conditions and pressure don’t go as planned. A pivotal moment in the hunt sparks the core debate of the episode: while glassing a buck, another hunter spotted the same deer, slipped in, and ultimately shot it out from in front of them. What followed became a race to the buck—and a larger conversation about ethics, unwritten rules, and fair play on public land. Was the other hunter in the wrong, or was it simply part of hunting ground that belongs to everyone? Beyond that moment, the episode dives into missed opportunities, mid-hunt adjustments, weather challenges, deer movement, and spot-and-stalk versus ground hunting tactics. Mental toughness and patience are tested as pressure increases from other hunters, leading to honest reflections on luck vs skill, scouting, preparation, and lessons learned for future hunts. Topics Covered: Public land hunting strategy Hunting ethics and shared ground Deer movement and scouting Spot-and-stalk vs ground hunting Decision-making under pressure 🎯 Ideal for hunters who spend time on public land and want to think deeper about strategy, ethics, and how to handle high-pressure situations.

  • One-Buck Rule Debate & Michigan Deer Herd Health - Josh Arbogast - The Michigan Whitetail Project

    One-Buck Rule Debate & Michigan Deer Herd Health - Josh Arbogast - The Michigan Whitetail Project
    Jan 21 2026
    The Bowhunter Chronicles Podcast - Episode 385: One-Buck Rule Debate & Michigan Deer Herd Health - Josh Arbogast - The Michigan Whitetail Project In this episode of The Bowhunter Chronicles Podcast, Adam Miller, Nate Rozeveld, and Josh Arbogast dive into the current and future state of Michigan deer hunting regulations, with a strong focus on upcoming Natural Resource Commission (NRC) meetings and how hunter involvement can shape deer management decisions. The conversation centers on potential regulatory changes including the one-buck rule, doe harvest strategies, and antler point restrictions (APR). Josh explains why the April and May NRC meetings are critical moments for Michigan hunters, stressing that meaningful improvements to deer herd health won’t happen without a unified and informed hunting community. The hosts explore the cultural divide within Michigan’s hunting landscape, contrasting regional experiences and questioning what “opportunity” really means when it comes to sustainable deer management. They discuss the importance of maintaining proper buck-to-doe ratios, effective doe harvest, and data-driven decisions to improve long-term hunting quality—not just short-term success. Throughout the episode, Adam, Nate, and Josh share personal hunting stories, lessons learned in the field, and insights on scouting, access strategies, and the mental side of hunting. The episode wraps with a clear call to action: hunters must engage in the regulatory process, attend NRC meetings, and work together to advocate for a healthier deer herd and a stronger future for Michigan hunting. 03:06 – Introduction to the Podcast and Guests04:27 – Importance of Upcoming NRC Meetings07:42 – Overview of Deer Regulations and Changes12:56 – Cultural Shifts in Hunting Practices19:31 – Strategies for Better Hunting in Michigan30:51 – Debating the One-Buck Rule and Its Implications40:18 – Concluding Thoughts on Deer Management43:56 – Defining Better Hunting in Michigan50:06 – The Importance of Buck-to-Doe Ratios56:52 – Advocating for Change in Deer Management01:05:59 – The Role of Hunters in Resource Management01:15:32 – Building a Unified Hunting Community01:24:25 – The Greater Good of Hunting01:24:49 – Josh’s Successful Buck Shot01:25:59 – Access Strategies and Hunting Tactics01:32:31 – The Importance of Scouting and Camera Use01:37:08 – Mental Aspects of Hunting01:43:00 – Setting Realistic Hunting Goals01:46:29 – Engaging with Wildlife Management https://www.paintedarrow.com - BHC15 for 15% off https://www.spartanforge.ai (https://www.spartanforge.ai/) - save 25% with code bowhunter https://www.latitudeoutdoors.com (https://www.latitudeoutdoors.com/) s https://www.zingerfletches.com (https://www.zingerfletches.com/) https://huntworthgear.com/ https://www.lucky-buck.com (https://www.lucky-buck.com/) https://www.bigshottargets.com (https://www.bigshottargets.com/) https://genesis3dprinting.com (https://genesis3dprinting.com/) https://vitalizeseed.com (https://vitalizeseed.com/) http://bit.ly/BHCPatreon Learn more about your ad choices.
