Today's guest needs little introduction to those of us who obsess over whitetails. I'm joined by Steve Bartylla who will share mature buck strategies and tactics, as well as habitat management tips to stack the odds in your favor on your property, or for specific stand locations. Steve has been working in the outdoor industry for more than 25 years. He's owned a whitetail consulting company, written several book, has written for a host of magazines, and you'll see him most often on Deer & Deer Hunting's Grow em Big web video series which is focused on deer management. Deer hunters of all levels can learn something from Steve. You may want to grab a pen and paper, as this show is packed full of whitetail information!
