The Fall Podcast

After hunting the same South Carolina buck for five years, Joe Miles finally got his chance at the 150-inch deer—and put an arrow through him. In this episode, I sit down with Joe Miles, owner of ASIO Gear, to talk about that hunt, the lessons that came from chasing one deer for five years, and the thought that goes into building some of the quietest hunting clothing on the market. Joe breaks down the new Stealth Jacket and Pant, including why ASIO designed the line specifically for those dead-calm days when even the smallest noise can blow a hunt. We talk about the fabric, wind resistance, ideal temperature range, hood design, saddle-hunting pockets, rangefinder pockets, full-zip pants, and the little details that can make a big difference when you're sitting close to a deer. We also get into how to properly layer the Stealth line with the Core Warmth Vest and Puffy Jacket.  . . .

Sometimes, the biggest change in your hunting has nothing to do with how you hunt. Arron and Nate sit down to recap their Iowa hunting adventure, diving into the highs, lows, and everything that goes into hunting while trying to capture it all on camera. They talk about the importance of being present, putting the obsession with inches aside, and simply enjoying where your feet are. They also break down the realities of filming hunts, why a cameraman has to think like a producer instead of a hunter, and how the little moments and B-roll can completely change the story. From Arron’s transition to traditional archery and the challenges of getting inside 20 yards, to October expectations, gear, and their plans for upcoming hunts, there’s plenty of hunting talk throughout. The conversation also takes a turn toward something bigger than hunting as Arron and Nate discuss their plans to work together on venison donation projects across Michigan—including the Doe Dash and a mobile cooler project designed to help get more venison to families who need it. It’s a conversation about hunting, filming, mindset, and using the outdoors to make an impact long after the season ends.  . . .

How do you kill three good bucks in just nine sits? Dustin Moll might be one of the most efficient whitetail hunters I know. Dustin is a Minnesota whitetail hunter who spends his seasons chasing bucks on public land across multiple states, and it seems like everywhere he goes, he’s able to find success fast. Last year alone, he killed three whitetail bucks in just nine sits. What makes Dustin’s approach so interesting is how simple and intentional it is. He’s a humble guy who has figured out how to make the most of limited time in the woods, even when hunting unfamiliar public ground. And these days, he’s doing it without running trail cameras. In this episode, Dustin breaks down how he finds and hunts bucks on public land, why he’s able to consistently get on good deer so quickly, and what led him to walk away from trail cameras altogether. We also get into his scouting approach, mindset, and the little things that make him such an efficient whitetail hunter. If you hunt public land or want to become more efficient with your time in the deer woods, this is an episode you’re going to want to hear.  . . .

What if the deer scent you’ve been spraying all over your scrape is actually telling deer to stay away? In this episode, I sit down with Warren and Easton from Raised Scents to break down what deer are actually communicating through their natural glandular scents—and why most of us have been using scent the wrong way for years. We get into the story behind Raised Hunting and how the family went from a TV show to building their own scent company, why they believe real glandular scents are different from synthetics, and what each gland is actually telling a deer. We also break down Scrape King, Scrape Addict, Scrape Queen, LHD, Buck Junkie and the Rut System, when to use each one, and the biggest mistakes hunters make when applying them. Then we get into one of my favorite parts of the conversation—rub trees. Why white pine? How much scent should you actually use? Why are some bucks hitting the same tree over and over? And what happens when you build a rub tree the right way? We also tackle some of the biggest scent myths in hunting, including cover scents, urine-based products, ozone and why no scent product in the world can replace good wind management. If you’re serious about using scent to create better scrape and rub activity this fall, you’re going to want to hear this one before you start spraying everything in the woods.  . . .

What if the biggest buck of your life could show up on the one day you’d normally tell yourself NOT to hunt? Adam Hays killed his 221-inch Kansas giant in brutal 85–90 degree weather, on the first night of a Red Moon—and that experience completely changed the way he looks at lunar deer movement. In this episode of The Fall Podcast, Adam and I dive deep into the Moon Guide, Red Moon predictions, and the controversial debate over whether the moon actually influences mature buck movement. Adam explains why he believes hunters have been looking at the wrong part of the moon, why its position in the sky matters more than simply looking at the moon phase, and what he discovered after digging into the deer studies that are often used to dismiss lunar influence. We also talk about using the moon alongside wind, weather, scouting and trail-camera data, how Adam decides when to hunt a location, and why he believes scouting tells you where to be while the Moon Guide can help determine when to be there. We get into morning hunts, November, hunting mature bucks in terrible weather, common mistakes hunters make, and how even a hardcore moon skeptic can test the theory for themselves. Is the moon really influencing deer movement—or are we giving it credit for something else? This conversation might change the way you plan your hunts this fall.  . . .

August is when the real work for November begins. In this episode of The Fall Podcast, I’m breaking down everything I’m doing right now to get ready for whitetail season. From deploying Moultrie trail cameras and glassing fields from the truck in the evenings to trying to track down two bucks I’m pretty sure survived last season, August is all about gathering information and getting prepared. I’m also putting in a 2-acre Vitalize food plot, fine-tuning my bow and arrow setup, testing broadheads, and putting plenty of arrows downrange. This is the time of year to find out if your equipment is truly ready—not when a mature buck is standing at 20 yards. We’ll also get into the less exciting but equally important preparation: washing and organizing my hunting camo, storing it with earth scent wafers, dialing in my hunting pack, and setting up the Flyer Pack as my self-filming pack for the upcoming season. And there’s still plenty of work to do in the woods, including prepping trees, clearing shooting lanes, and setting up ambush locations with November in mind. The season may still be weeks away, but the preparation is already underway. If you want to be ready when opening day finally arrives, August is the time to start putting in the work. In this episode: Moultrie trail camera deployment Evening glassing and summer buck patterns Tracking down two bucks that may have survived last season Preparing a 2-acre Vitalize food plot Fine-tuning your bow and arrow setup Testing broadheads and shooting your hunting setup Washing and organizing hunting camo Storing hunting clothes with earth scent wafers Dialing in your hunting pack Setting up the Flyer Pack for self-filming Preparing trees and ambush locations Getting mentally and physically ready for deer season The season doesn't start on opening day.

What if one simple decision on a public land hunt put a 158-inch Kansas giant within bow range just hours later? This week on The Fall Podcast, Aaron Swan joins me to tell the story behind one of the most unforgettable public land bow kills I've ever heard. After slipping into a Kansas public land setup late in the morning, Aaron pulled a Raised Deer Scents Drag Rag behind him on the way in. A few hours later, a mature 158-inch buck followed that exact trail—and the rest is a story every whitetail hunter needs to hear. Before we dive into the hunt, we talk about what we're doing right now to prepare for fall, including revamping summer food plots, adding water holes, and why these projects can completely change how deer use your property heading into hunting season. We also break down why the Raised Deer Scents Scrape King has become one of our favorite preseason tools. The mock scrapes I've built this summer have been absolutely on fire, giving us incredible inventory of the bucks living in the area before opening day. Whether you hunt public land or private, this episode is packed with real-world tactics you can use this season—from habitat improvements to scent strategy—and finishes with an unbelievable bowhunting story that will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about hunting mature bucks. In this episode: Hunting mature bucks on Kansas public land Revamping summer food plots before the season Why we're adding water holes now The mock scrape strategy producing consistent buck activity Raised Deer Scents Scrape King & Drag Rag tactics The incredible story behind Aaron Swan's 158-inch public land bow buck If you're counting down the days until deer season, this is one you won't want to miss.  . . .

In this episode of The Fall Podcast, Arron sits down with Brett for a deep conversation about whitetail hunting strategy, chasing mature bucks, simplifying the hunt, personal growth, and finding more purpose in the outdoors. Brett breaks down his decision to scale back his 2026 hunting season and focus on Ohio whitetail hunting and Illinois whitetail hunting after years of trying to manage multiple states, tags, leases, and opportunities. The guys discuss how the modern hunting culture of chasing more states, more tags, and more success can sometimes take away from the reason we started hunting in the first place. A major topic of the conversation is eliminating friction — removing unnecessary obstacles that keep you from enjoying the process. Arron and Brett discuss how this applies to everything from filming hunts and creating outdoor content to whitetail scouting, deer hunting preparation, and in-season decision making. Brett shares lessons learned from years of chasing deer across different states, including why he believes focusing on fewer properties and putting more intentional effort into each hunt will lead to better experiences and better opportunities at mature bucks. The guys also dive into Brett’s career in construction and development management, the frustrations that come with company growth, and the challenge of staying motivated when work becomes more about processes and reporting than solving problems. This episode goes beyond hunting as Arron and Brett talk about taking risks early in life, pursuing passions before responsibilities pile up, and setting the right example for their kids by continuing to challenge themselves. Brett also shares his journey through 75 Hard, a 75-day discipline challenge focused on fitness, mindset, nutrition, and personal development. They discuss building habits, overcoming discomfort, and getting back on track when life feels out of alignment. Topics Covered: 2026 whitetail hunting plans and focusing on Ohio and Illinois Deer hunting strategy and simplifying the process Mature buck hunting and eliminating unnecessary pressure The downside of chasing too many states and too many tags How to reduce friction in hunting and outdoor content creation Whitetail scouting, wind, entry routes, and preparation Balancing hunting, career, family, and personal goals Taking risks before life becomes complicated 75 Hard challenge, fitness, discipline, and personal growth Lessons learned from years of chasing deer across the country If you’re a whitetail hunter, deer hunter, bowhunter, public land hunter, or someone looking to improve your hunting mindset, this episode will challenge you to simplify the process and focus on what truly matters.

From NHL Goalie to FaceOff E-Bikes: Dieter Kochan's Incredible Journey | The Fall Podcast What does it take to build one of the most respected hunting e-bike companies in the country?

In this episode of The Fall Podcast, Arron sits down with FaceOff E-Bikes founder Dieter Kochan for one of the most fascinating conversations we've had. What starts as a discussion about Dieter's recent retirement quickly turns into an incredible deep dive into his journey—from a 10-year professional hockey career, to serving as a Michigan State Police K-9 officer, to building FaceOff E-Bikes from the ground up. Dieter shares the untold story of how he financed his first inventory by selling priceless hockey memorabilia and why changing the company from Stealth E-Bikes to FaceOff was one of the biggest risks he ever took.

What would you do if an Instagram giveaway completely changed the way you hunted? This week, I sit down with Michigan traditional bowhunter Aaron Cowhy to talk about the recurve he won from Aron Snyder that changed everything. After winning the bow, Aaron sold his brand-new compound and has never looked back. More than a decade later, Aaron has dedicated himself to mastering traditional archery and has become incredibly successful on whitetails and other game. We dive into the mindset, discipline, and practice it takes to consistently kill animals with traditional gear, along with the lessons he's learned along the way.

This week on The Fall Podcast, I sit down with Cody Osborn from northeast Alabama. If you've spent any time on social media, you've probably seen Cody's success chasing whitetails across the Midwest. Year after year, he tags mature bucks in multiple states, often killing a deer, driving to the next state, and finding success again just days later. We dive into what it really takes to travel and hunt unfamiliar ground, whether hunting has been made more complicated than it needs to be, and exactly how Cody approaches the first 24 hours after arriving in a new state. We also discuss his standards for harvesting deer, the Kansas property he recently purchased, and what it's like hunting whitetails in Alabama compared to the Midwest.

After 14 years behind a camera filming hunts, I finally sat down and answered the questions people have been asking me for years. This episode goes way deeper than camera gear and self-filming setups. We get into how filming hunts has changed the way I hunt, whether social media and modern hunting content have helped or hurt the industry, and if I’d still film today if nobody ever saw the final product. I also talk about the mental shift of going from filming projects like Dropped into whitetail season, balancing the pressure of capturing content while still staying present in the hunt, and how different productions like Dropped, Rival Wild, and GRIT all require completely different mindsets behind the camera. We also dive into some things people rarely talk about publicly: Ethical dilemmas while filming hunters Pressure to cross lines for content Nightmare filming situations Whether I edit for myself or the audience The most rewarding footage I’ve ever captured What’s still on my filming bucket list after all these years There are stories, opinions, and behind-the-scenes moments in this episode that I’ve never shared before. If you’ve ever wondered what really goes into filming hunts — physically, mentally, and emotionally — this one’s for you. . . .

Welcome back to another episode of Protect Our Bucks the series where five buddies sit around and talk about whatever comes to mind. Hunting, non hunting, dumb theories, camp stories… nothing is off limits. In this episode we get into whether ticks are actually being dropped from planes, using boats to sneak into hunting spots, the best and worst parts about traveling to hunt, and why our Kansas camp is hands down the best camp out there and it honestly has very little to do with the hunting itself. This one is exactly what Protect Our Bucks is supposed to be. Just a bunch of friends BS’ing, laughing, arguing, telling stories, and talking about the stuff every hunting camp talks about once the cameras are off. Enjoy. . . .

Most people know Jay's Sporting Goods as the giant Michigan sporting goods store… but very few know how it actually started. In today’s episode, I sit down with Arlene Yost, Jeff Poet and JJ Poet to hear the real story behind the empire. What started in the trunk of Jay Poet’s car in the 1960s eventually turned into the largest privately owned sporting goods store in the country. Before the massive stores, packed aisles, and loyal customers… there was a one-car garage, a dream, and a family willing to bet everything on it. This episode dives into the history, sacrifices, risks, and moments that built Jay’s into what it is today. Some of the stories in this one honestly sound too crazy to be real. If you love hunting, the outdoors, business, or just hearing how something legendary was built from absolutely nothing, you’re going to want to hear this one all the way through. This was a special episode for me to record, and I’m incredibly thankful the Poet family sat down to share it. Enjoy. . . .

This week’s episode is for the guys who want to level up their self filming game in the whitetail woods. I sat down with JJ Dukart from The Deer Society to talk all things self filming deer hunts. JJ breaks down the camera gear and equipment he trusts in the field, how he efficiently films hunts completely by himself, and the little details that can turn average footage into a hunt film that actually tells a story. We also get into the B-roll shots every self filmer should be capturing, mistakes guys make when filming their own hunts, and ways to make your footage look more cinematic without overcomplicating it. On top of all that, JJ takes us down memory lane and shares one of his all-time favorite self filmed hunts. If you’ve ever thought about filming your own hunts, are struggling to make your footage better, or just love good whitetail stories, this episode is packed with useful information and plenty of BS along the way. . . .

This week on The Fall Podcast, I sit down with my good buddy Lee Herr out of Iowa, a guy who’s built a reputation for doing one of the hardest things in the whitetail world, picking one specific buck and dedicating entire seasons to chasing that deer until the job gets done. No bouncing between shooters. No settling. Just patience, discipline, and an obsession with figuring out one mature whitetail. What makes this story even crazier is that Lee started hunting this buck with almost zero information. The only proof this deer even existed was a single shed antler he found the year before. No trail camera history. No daylight photos. No years of scouting intel. Just one giant shed and the belief that a world class buck was living somewhere nearby. This season, all of that work paid off in a massive way when Lee wrapped his tag around an absolutely stud 254-inch non-typical giant that ranks number 6 in the state of Iowa all time with his bow on a small piece of property. But what makes this story even better is the man behind it. Lee is as humble and down to earth as they come, and this conversation dives way deeper than just antler score. We break down the years of history with this buck, the mental grind of passing other deer, hunting pressured ground, the strategy behind targeting one animal, and what it really takes to consistently hunt at a high level. If you’re passionate about mature whitetails and the chess match that comes with hunting them, this is an episode you won’t want to miss. . . .
