Team Radical Deer Hunting

Stormy Graver and Sean McCrory head out in Missouri after getting intel on multiple mature bucks hitting the "buck field." A mature 8 pointers walks right to them giving Stormy an awesome shot opportunity for her first archery buck.

Jake Vancil decided to try some new tactics and hang and hunt in a new area. With less than ideal conditions and bumping deer on the way in, it wasn't looking good to start off the hunt. Things quickly changed with a well places arrow while the big buck came into a scrape 10 yards.

Halloween morning was one for the personal record books for Matt Lape! He was able to make a perfect shot on an Illinois giant 10 pointer for his best buck to date!

Nate Adamson had vehicle troubles that led him to rent a sweet minivan during the peak of the rut in Illinois. Nate didn't let the car troubles hold him back and he was able to arrow a nice 8 pointer on his buddy's new property.

After two years of sitting on the sideline, Jennifer was finally able to make it to the woods again. Expectations were to shoot a doe, but a big mature eight point had other plans. Having children is quite possibly the greatest gift in life, but also requires a lot of time, which is why Jennifer has been out of the game for so long. It's safe to say now that she's BAAAACK and in a big way!

As a bowhunter, sometimes you have to get aggressive when the time is right. Justin Roepke switched up setups three times before 10am and by using his OnX Hunt app, he figured out where exactly he needed to be. Justin set up within 40 yards of this bedded buck laying in the switchgrass. It's truly incredible how he was able to set everything up with the buck being bedded so close.

Each season has it's a new set of challenges with many ups and downs. This episode shows Chris Walker's encounters from summer scouting up until the morning he arrowed an Illinois giant. If you love bowhunting and whitetails, you'll enjoy this episode!

Chris set out to hunt for does on the last night of Second Gun Season in Illinois. After shooting a doe with his Savage 220 shotgun, Chris had two bucks come down the same trail. These bucks were very wary with the doe lying in the middle of their trail. Chris dropped the hammer on a freak buck he's had several years of history with at 25 yards, all while he sniffed the doe.

Team Member Josh Christensen takes his wife, Taylor, gun hunting in Tennessee. Taylor was able to take two awesome Tenneessee bucks out of the same blind. The first buck was with her muzzleloader, then a week later she made an awesome long-range shot with a .243 to take out their target10 pointer.

Sean wakes up to some cell pictures of a buck he calls Beamer Jr. Sean pulls op onX maps to put a plan together to go after BJ during Missouri's firearm season. To Sean's surprise, it doesn't take long to get the job done!

Sometimes things go as planned, but oftentimes they don't. Nic had a long season logging over forty hunts before this mature buck offered him a shot. It all came together to the final moment of truth when a neighbor sounded of his rifle. The buck started to leave and Nic went with plan B and made the shot count.

Mike Horchner and Ricky Vandawater head west to Colorado again to chase public land mule deer. Their scouting and hunting high elevations prove to be successful yet again this year. Check out Mike take down this awesome public land buck with Ricky behind the camera on this episode!

Kyle was excited to find out Black Mountain Outfitters still had one elk tag left. Kyle and Jake had high expectations going into the hunt but were met with extreme heat upon arrival. The first 5 days were hot and the elk didn't talk much at all. It came down to the last day to get the job done.

Making goals and sticking to them is what Kyle Heuerman did in his 2020 hunting season. Setting new goals for every season is something that keeps us coming back for more season after season. Seeing his wife tag her first buck in a couple of seasons and having great encounters on new properties was certainly part of Kyle's goals for the season.
