On this podcast, you will hear our take on a listener question. This question falls right in line with some of the recent podcasts we are having regarding herd management. This time it is on a bigger scale. We look beyond a single property and involve regions and states.

During the podcast, we talk about a real life example form Southern Iowa. This podcast follower has seen a decrease in the number and quality of bucks over the course of 8 years, despite completing some pretty serious land and herd management during this time. So, we break down in an honest review of what this landowner could be experiencing. This neighborhood is seeing crazy lease values and outfitting. The number of mature bucks being harvested annually is only increasing. The targets are being shot while does are left to increase.

If you want to hear the answer to this question on a deeper level, then follow along on the podcast. Take a dive down to the complexities of managing wild free ranging whitetails. #ForLoveoftheLand
