Missouri Woods & Water - Hunting and Fishing Podcast

Tales of the Chase: A 4 Year Story - Ep 342

Episode Summary

This week on the Missouri Woods & Water Podcast, Nate talks with Blake Garrett as he recounts the multi-year effort to pattern a Kansas buck he called Inline, from managing a 12,000-acre network of leases to learning the deer’s routines through feeding and trail-camera observations. He explains age-class-based buck rotation, a close-range encounter, and how changing his access route revealed that his truck and entry routine may have been tipping the deer off. Blake recounts the final hunt for a buck he had tracked and managed over several years, culminating in an 18-yard bow shot on a deer he scored at 216 2/8 inches. He reflects on habitat and herd management, buck maturity, hunting goals, and why the history behind a deer can matter more than its score. Thanks for listening!
