In today's episode of The Exodus Podcast, we are back in the studio with the deer hunting legend Andy May. This podcast with Andy went so in-depth that we had to break it down into two segments, so be on the lookout for part 2 next week! Get your notes ready, there is A LOT that Andy covers that you would never think of when in the whitetail woods.

If you want to skip the introduction, Andy's section starts at the 9:18 minute mark.

We discuss:

-How Andy balances work, family and hunting to kill mature bucks

-How he has found better success with less time to hunt

-Using previous experience in the woods to make on-the-fly decisions

-How growing up hunting in Michigan taught him to think outside of the box when hunting public land

-Why he'd rather travel and hunt public than spend money on a high percentage lease

-His process of scouting an area that he plans on hunting in the fall

-A complete breakdown of his 2020 Iowa rut hunt

-Why do bucks travel perpendicular to deer trails in the rut

-Killing a mature buck over then only scrape in the area

-Do bucks use scrapes in the rut?

-Mature bucks use scrapes less than young bucks

-There aren’t big deer everywhere in Iowa

-A complete breakdown of his 2020 Michigan gun hunt

-Using terrain features to your advantage
