Speaker 1: Welcome to the Wired to Hunt podcast, your home for deer hunting news, stories and strategies, and now your host, Mark Kenyon. Welcome to the Wired to Hunt Podcast. I'm your host, Mark Kenyan in this episode number two D and to Dan the show. We're kicking off another year of our radio mini series in which we chat with hunters from all across the country each week to get the latest intel on current deer activity and the tactics that are working. Right now, all right, welcome to the Wired Hunt Podcast, brought to you by on X, and this is our first episode of two thousand nineteen of our RUT Radio series. But we're actually calling out something slightly different this year. We're calling rut Fresh Radio. But it is the exact same things that you've heard over the last three seasons. We're calling this rout Fresh Radio. I will give you a very quick behind the scenes explanation here because our buddy Spencer new Hearth. While you, Spencer, you started something called RUT Fresh I think last year, right a blog in which you were sharing written RUT reports that kind of went along with the same kinds of things we were talking about on RUT radio. And when you joined the Mediator team, which happened when last year earlier this year October. Okay, so when you joined, we decided, hey, we should keep ret Fresh Reports going, but we're of course and keep rut Radio going. And it could get kind of confusing if we had the two same things but with slightly different names. We decided to combine the names. So there's going to be the same RUT Radio mini series that we do here in the podcast. We're just gonna call rut Fresh Radio, and then you're gonna have rut Fresh written reports on the mediair website to right, That's right. Those are going to start in October, okay, sweet. So for those that aren't familiar with what we do here on this series, this is going to be a series that we are running in addition to the regular wire Dump podcast each week, and it's going to run from this week all the way to the end of the two thousand nine hunting season. Give me the cliff notes on what folks can expect, Spencer. This is the fourth season of doing this mini podcast. These episodes are going to come out every single Wednesday, and every week I'm going to talk to some highly respected white tail hunters from across the country and get the latest reports from what they're seeing, what the buck activity has been like, uh, if the moon face has changed anything, if the weather pattern to mess stuff up, what those food sources look like in their area, if the bachelor groups are still together, if calling works right now, if signmaking has started, all of that stuff. And so we get a breakdown of what they've been seeing in the past few days, and then also prediction on what they expect to come in the coming days. Right, that's right, And the idea of this podcast is to give you the freshest intel possible. Good at give you guys a peep behind the curtain here. But we are recording this on a Tuesday in this episode will drop Wednesday morning, so the reports that you're hearing are less than twenty four hours old, and hopefully if you are somebody who is a weekend warrior hunter, this will give you some ideas of what to do in the upcoming weekend. You're gonna hear some great reports on here from hopefully somebody in your neck of the woods, and maybe they'll say something that you pick up on um and it helps you make an informed decision for an upcoming hunt. That happens to me almost every week prior to a hunt. I'm using this intel hopefully just like you guys are, and it's really helped me in a lot of cases in the past. Yeah, I'll say another thing that we've both kind of spoken to over the last couple of years, we've started seeing not only there's is there value in these the very recent intel part of it, but then also what I've started to do is I will go back and listen to the prior year or previous couple of years during the same date range, and then you can start to pick up on certain trends. So, for example, this is the first week of September, we're gonna hear from people that are hunting, you know, right now. But if we went and listened to last year's episode from the first week of September, we might find certain things to talk about that might relate to this year as well. Maybe last year's episode someone said, hey, we got a cold front. Then September five, it got dear moving like crazy. And if you have it to be hunting this week on September five or eighth or whatever, and you have a coal front coming, you can say, hey, that worked for Tony back then, I bet you that might help me this year. So listen to this week's episode, but if you've got extra time, you might want to go back and listen to one of the three previous seasons during the same date range, and you can find other things that could help you too, right, haven't you seen that as well, Spencer, Yeah, definitely, And I can already see one way that is going to be quite different, um is how the summer weather is now affecting these really early season haunts. For example, most of the country had a very wet spring and summer. I know specifically in the Great Plains it was that way. But then I also learned through this week's interviews that some of these other places dealt with the same thing, and it really changed some early season tactics. Tony Peterson is a guy that if you've listened to Wire to Hunt before or read anything he's written, or you know, checked out his podcast, you'll know that early season he loves to focus on watering holes. It's a great place to pattern a book, and it's a great place to avoid people because everyone else kind of likes those safe field edge setups. And this year Tony was hunting in Nebraska who we will hear from later um, And he said there was so much water available and everything was so wet that that plan just went out the window and he had to, you know, change up what he was doing because those water hole setups were not gonna work. And it was the same thing from the guys we talked to in Tennessee, South Carolina and in North Dakota. Yeah, so who else are we hearing from? We start off in Tennessee with Jacob Myers from The Southern Outdoorsman. Then in Nebraska we talked to Tony Peterson from the Hunt for Real podcast. In South Carolina from Cut four Outdoors is Cameron Busby, and then in North Dakota Dylan Lens from the Breaking Point TV. There was a ton of success from this year's group of guys. On the first episode, Jacob Myers in Tennessee they killed two bucks. Uh, Tony de Brat, Tony Peterson from Nebraska, he's already on his way home back Minnesota because him and his body both tagged out. And then Dylan Lens in North Dakota from the Breaking Point they killed one on opener as well. Nice awesome, Well, I am our chronological or is gonna be a little bit wonky here because I am in North Dakota on my own North Dakota hunt. But the Regular Wire podcast that comes out tomorrow was recorded before that hunt, so I don't want to give too much away yet. Um. The very light report is that I saw a decent amount of activity just prior to opening day, and on opening day there was a pretty decent amount of movement, but it slowed down significantly after that, possibly hunting pressure related or possibly because it got super hot. Um. That is my very light activity report from North Dakota. Can I Can I just leave it at that? Well, let me know one thing, are you dealing with the same thing as everyone else? That everything is wet and there's plenty of water That that is not a focal point of your early season Sits definitely not a focal point of my sets here. Um, not so much because like I was going to keen on water holes anyways, but there's there's there's a river right through this area that's providing water everywhere. Um, So that just wasn't going to be a factor from the get go. Um, but I can say that definitely stuff is lushed that I will say there's there's food everywhere, seemingly a lot of green vegetation, and that has led to deer activity being very spread out. It doesn't seem if there's one food source that they're keying in on. Um. There's so much natural brows that the activity has just been kind of willy nilly um. And maybe that had to do with it being such a such a relatively wet summer out here compared to other years. All right, Mark, well, I think we get to these first colors um. And one more thing I don't think that we spoke to was that these podcast episodes are always going to be short. So these episodes are gonna be around thirty minutes, super digestible. Hopefully you can kill it on your way to work in the morning and then that puts you in a white tail hunting mood. Yes, and I will I will add, though, as I sometimes do, I will drag these things longer because I'm a rambler. So I gotta give one more update Spencer Um. Sort of in tandem with these podcast episodes, we also released a new video series over on the Mediator that describes how to kill a buck during different portions in the hunting season, and it was you, myself and Tony Peterson. We got together and we broke down each month into a first half in the second half, and then discussed what our ideas would be, what our mindset, what our tactics would be during each one of those segments of the year. So, for example, the video that's already come out, how to Kill a Buck September, we went and we each shared a couple of the high level ideas we'd be thinking about in early September one hunting, and then we picked an example property and we dissect that property. We look at an aerial view of the property, all three of us and walk through where we would consider hunting, how we would consider hunting it, each one of us kind of sharing our own perspectives, and then one of us actually had hunted that property, and then that would be the last person to go. And then we'd say, hey, you were right about this or I saw this was very similar to what you guys are guessing um and I think those turned out pretty interesting and very helpful. So the first one is available on the Meat Eater YouTube channel right now. We will have new episodes coming every other week, right that's right, and we are bring kicking down a variety of different properties in these videos, public and private, from Pennsylvania to Oklahoma, to Wisconsin, to Kentucky to Ohio and everything in between. So hopefully if episode one talking early September and a property in Kentucky doesn't apply to you, that one of these next ones will. Yeah, we we We can't cover every single region every single time, but you can definitely still pull pieces and parts that can apply to your own specific situation. So with that said, Spencer, uh, should I shut it down and let you take it for the interviews? Yeah? Good luck in North Dakota, and I hope you're sending me a BBD tax very soon. Thanks man, I hope so too. But before we move on, I want to tell you guys about the biggest sale of the year going on over at First Light for today only. Almost everything on the side is ten to thirty percent off, including the Catalyst jacket which will get you through the entire fall with a bit of layering, the Solitude system, which is perfect for the late season Midwestern both Hunter, and the Marino Killing Hoodie, which is the most versatile bass layer that I own. To take advantage of First lights opener sail head over to first light dot Com. No promo code or coupons necessary, but you must order today. Don't miss out on these deals alright. And joining us on the line first is Jacob Myers from the Southern Outdoorsman podcast in Tennessee. Jacob in Tennessee, what would you say the buck activity is ben lately? On a scale of one to ten, I'd say since the Velvet buck hunt on the twenty three, it's been probably close to seven or eight right now, So the deer have definitely been feeding quite a bit in the afternoon. Uh. You know, they're still you know, kind of grouped up, so you'll be able to go out anywhere you have eggs, especially any kind of beans right now. Uh. You just being able to see deer quite easily, especially if you have advantage point where you can glass from. You're seeing deer moving throughout the day. I know on that Velvet hunt on when we were able to kill our deer, we were seeing deer moving as early as four o'clock in the afternoon, Bucks, Jacob. In most of the country and early early openers like September one, But you guys are hunting like seven eight nine days. And how does that Tennessee early velvet season change from how you'd maybe be hunting right now. Yeah, Actually I have not had previous experience hunting that early. Uh. So Tennessee puts on a where they classifyed they market it as a velvet buck hunt for the whole state. It's open to private land for the whole state. Uh. And this year it was August. But last year they found c w D in the western part of the state and actually made a c w D zone and for that hunt. This year, in that c w D zone, it was open on thirteen pieces of publicly and track in that part of the state in that zone, so we were able to hunt one of those parcels of public Also, they opened it for muzzleloader, which made it a really fun time to go hunt. Uh. It really did change our thoughts on hunting because we're going from you know, trying to focus on you know, what we would think is later season food story is down there. Uh, kind of getting away from the egg trying to find for simmons and different oaks, UH, to focusing strictly on agg especially soybeans. And it paid off very quickly. We're able to shoot two deer within twenty four hours of the hunt, and unfortunately, it wasn't able to locate my dear because I made a non lethal shot on that deer. But it's it's been fantastic. It is this very different when you don't have experience hunting that early in the season. Did you guys focus on water at all? Hunting that early when I assumed the weather was really hot, Actually we did not. So this whole summer, we've had a pretty good amount of rain in Tennessee, really the whole southeast, but over the last month or so it's dried up just a little bit. But where we were hunting, you know, you were still finding you know, water pockets, you know, whether it was you know, some puddles, a little bit of running water, whatever it was. So you know, water wasn't a major source of you know, finding and locating deer on that hunt or really anytime recently late this summer, some parts of Kentucky and Tennessee have been experiencing the h D. Is that something that you've dealt with in in your part of Tennessee, not necessarily in my part, but guess there has been a few outbreaks. One County in UH in general has had quite a few of outbreaks, which is Hickman County, which is kind of middle Tennessee, midwestern Tennessee, UM, and they've had quite a few outbreaks. Has been a lot of landowners posting about finding quite a few dear dead, which is unfortunate, but it doesn't seem like it's widespread by no means. With that velvet season that Tennessee has, and you can use a muzzleloader. UM that obviously allows you to reach out and touch these deer at a greater distance. So how do your setups look hunting with a muzzleloader that early versus if you were bow hunting. Funny you said that. So again, in that c w D zone we could use muzzloaders. UH. The other part of the state they could not. And really it kind of did open up our mind of how we could hunt them because in deer and velvet and agg um there, in my experience, they're very easy to stalk up on. And that's actually what we did for the second year. The first year, my buddy was able to shoot it out of his saddle, um, and you know, just to be able to get a forty yards on his deer, my dear, Actually we had his stock out into the beans to get a shot at at sixty yards, which really, you know, when the beans are so tall, you know you're looking almost you know, you know, waist high as taller beans. You know, you've got getting pretty close to get a good shot at him. So that definitely did, you know, change our way of hunting, but definitely made it for you know, quite a fun hunting. I wish you know, more people actually took part in that. So Tennessee's regular deer opener still about twenty five days away late September, So how will your tactics change when that early when that opener comes versus what you were just hunting. Yes, so when that season opens again, I hunt pretty much strictly public line, and especially in Tennessee. One thing I love to hit on early season up there is per simmons. Uh, definitely, you know anywhere in mid to western Tennessee there's a ton of for simmons, which is a great food source early season, especially if you find a few tures that are dropping or after a heavy storm has come through and knocked a bunch to the ground, you'll absolutely find a bunch of deer, and that's definitely and that first, you know, four or five days of the season. It's something I like to focus on. Unless you can find a good being field that either was late planet that hasn't turned yellow yet. Uh, you know, that can be another good food source. But the problem is when you hunt public, anytime you're around beings on public, you're gonna have other guys there. So normally it's not uh, not normally very efficient in my opinion, in that part of the country. Going forward to the next week or so, what do you think that bucket activity is going to be on a scale of one to ten, I expect once they come out of velvet, which right now they're probably seventy five percent the deer still end velvet. I've seen a few deer coming out, and I've got some buddies that a run trail cameras that are seeing deer starting to come out of velvet. But uh, you know, as they come out of velvet and they start kind of splitting up a little bit, I can uh normally see them start kind of eating off those fields so much, uh and really kind of start covering a little bit more ground and kind of getting into their fall ranges. So when that happens, you know a lot of guys will start freaking out because their deer, you know, the patterns changed. They're coming to their you know, the camera a couple of hours later or earlier than normal, which gives guys kind of worried. But you just gotta stay focused and try to find that betting area where they're located at and try moving closer to him our jacobile. Congrats on those bucks. I'm jealous that you guys get to start hunting so early. And thanks for joining me. I appreciate Spencer, Thank you all right and joining us on the line. Next is Tony Peterson in Nebraska from the Hunt for Real podcast. Tony, on a scale of one to ten, what would you say the buck activities been lately? Oh? Man, I would say probably pushing up on an eight. You were currently on the road from Nebraska to Minnesota and you're headed home early for good reason? Is that right? We are? Man? Uh we uh. We got down there a couple of days before the season open on the first to glass and scouts the public land and uh, my buddy and I I killed one opening night. My buddy killed on the next day, and now we're on Eariam home. Tony, you're one of the best public land bow hunters. I know. I said this multiple times over and it's just proved it again. So tell me a little bit about those setups, because I'm really interested in how you killed big velvet bucks and back to back nights. Sure, we uh, you know, we we planned on hunting water because it was you know, it was gonna be hot. It was. It was eighty degrees when I killed my buck at ninety when he killed his, my buddy killed his. But there was water everywhere down there. There's been so much rain. So as soon as we got down there and we saw the water situation, we switched to try to find some food. And we thought some areas that had a ton of brows, but there was no concentrated deer activity. And then we found one good soybean field on public land that was a little bit of a hike to get into, and that was the ticket. As soon as I started glassing, and I knew we were probably gonna live and die by that field. Now, how obvious that this soybean field wasn't Were you competing with other hunters in that area because it seems like a place that most public land guys would focus on. Um, you would think. So. The good thing about the soybean field we found was I knew about it. I knew there was a field there from turkey hunting in this public land the spring, but you could barely see it from any road, and it wasn't It wasn't as obvious as it sounds. Maybe, And you know, we got in there early and did did some scouting in there. We did have two guys from Michigan pull up the night before the season opened, but they were they were really nice guys and they said, Oh, if you guys are in there hunt, we'll just wait. We're gonna be down here for a while. And so those guys, uh, they just backed off of it because it wasn't a very big spot and they that that was cool that they did that, because they let us have it, and we we ended up doing really well in there. Now, he said, ordinarily you'd be focused on water. What kind of water hunts do you like? Like little stock dams or wallows or creeks or river crossing what do those look like? Um, you know, in this in this part of Nebraska where we were at it would have been you know, cattle tanks and little ponds out in the pastures, you know, anything anything around, some cover, anything where you know, the white tails like good cover. And if we could have find something tucked away, so I had you know, my maps were just loaded with way points of water. But there was there was water absolutely everywhere, and it just was totally it was just a worthless pattern for us. It wasn't gonna happen. Were you seeing bachelor groups still together? Were these bucks traveling solo? Um? They were? They were bachelord up still. Um, you know, we still probably I'd say thirty or the bucks we saw were hard antlerd already of the rest. We were still in velvet, and they were they were pretty grouped up, but they were they were so concentrated in one part of that bean field that you know, it might have been kind of an illusion. They may have just been feeding close by each other. But we definitely did see some bucks that were still together. You just mentioned that they were focused out in one corner of the bean field. What was it about that area that got you just set up there and got you to kill these two bucks? Um? The corner of the bean field they were using most heavily. Heavily butted up to the best patch of timber there and which really isn't much the path ustard woods, but it's the best cover, and it's the least visible spot on the field. It kind of spilled down a little way, so the elevation drops away, and it was just one of those places where if you were glassing from the other side of the field, you'd sometimes see them pop out and go down in there, so you knew there was something going on better there in the one place that you couldn't really see, and I think I think that's why they picked it. How early in the evening were these books showing up um. Some of them were living in it. The buck that I killed was betted in there. When I hung my stand opening night, I watched him get up and feed fifty yards away after I got my stand hung, and then I watched another bucket I had seen the previous night get up um from inside the field. So they were you could see when you got above these real lush, tall soybeans, you could see all these little bomb crater looking at the holes in the soybeans. And I think it was just those bucks were spending so much time in there just betting stand up feed. The bucket I killed actually ended up bedding in front of me at thirty seven yards for an hour, and I could see him seating while he was laying down. Going forward to the next week or so, what do you think that bucket ATVT is going to be a skill of one to ten in Nebraska? Oh, I would say with the coming forecast, I would say it's gonna stay around a seven or eight probably. I don't think it's going to change too drastically with all those deer going hard anlard yet. All right, Tony, well, congrats again, thanks for joining me. Always look forward to hearing these public land adventures that you're on and way to go on the awesome deer. Awesome, thanks buddy, alright and joining us on the line. Next from South Carolina is Cameron Busty from cut Forward Outdoors. Now, Cameron in South Carolina, what would you say the bucket activity has been in the last week or so on a scale of one to ten, I'd say about a six. The deer kind of getting into a little transition period between uh, they're they're coming out of their summer velvet and they're starting to get hard to him. There usually their velvet right hair around Labor Day weekend, so we're kind of in that transition period and we're trying to target in on bucks for the summer patterns of the fall pattern. So we're kind of one of these a little transitions right now. So what would you say the ratio is in South Carolina bucks that are still holding velvet to ones that are hard horned. I'd say it's about hard horn the bigger bucks right now, or they're they're a hard horn they're usually the first ones get rid of it. And so with these early season sits, when you're trying to catch these bucks going from those summer patterns to fall patterns, what are you focused on protecting? When I started August fifteen, so August fix, they still have their bilment on. They're pretty pretty consistent, so you can get on the food tourse early. UM your field agg fields we had We've had some success in big fresh cutovers um a lot of regrowth out there, especially in the morning, and those big cutovers seemed to play the big cutovers off the egg fields and staging aary for them to come back to bed. They'll hang out there and mill out there and after her in the morning, they're coming from food back to bed. What we did augustly the te um August eight tenths, you're killed the monster, I mean heavy warned eight pointer Um in a cutover just like that in the morning. Um. But right now we're gonna start getting on some transition lines. UM. Food still primary, especially in the afternoons, because they're still kind of comfortable. They're not really getting too much pressure right now. We're trying to stay out and not really bumping too hard on the food. You mentioned that some of those caught areas kind of function as staging areas in the mornings. Does that mean that you've been doing some morning setups this early in the season. Yes, actually we have. Actually those have been most of our setups. Um. The farm we hunt, it doesn't have egg The egg field is not on the property. It's about um half mile the road. So the deer are going to the hagfield tonight, but we can't haunt the agg field. So we're catching them coming back and they're using our cut over. It's a two year old cut over. They cut it last year and it's got vegetation that's probably nick highing and if you get up on the edge of it and get get high enough, and they're using that. I mean, we've had an agatack days down here, so we're catching them coming back to bed up the Creek games now coming up here at the end of the week. It seems like Hurricane Dorian maybe making contact with South Carolina. Do you ever notice in the past that hurricanes affect the deer movement before after hurricane and what does that look like? Dorian is gonna be a little farther to our east and more towards the coast. Were actually towards the center of the state. But we've had hurries in the post come come through and we've actually noticed buck moving right before the storm. Or two years ago, we killed a really really big eight pointer the day before hurricane came and he learned he was up in October moving at five o'clock in the afternoon. I mean, just something you don't see, very rare, and there's a buck. We only had a couple of pictures last year one of our members because in North Carolina, you know, they had that major storm I forget what the name of it was. They came through last year. And he was hunting hadn't had one huge I mean probably a hundred and sixty five inch in North Carolina out in the bean fields right in the middle of afternoon. Even so, I feel like they know the storm is coming and it puts up because they know the next days are going to be bad going forward. Then in the sex week or so, what do you think that bucket activity is going to be on a scale of one to ten in South Carolina? I feel like it's gonna pick up and probably be about seven and I have eight before the storm. During the storm, it could drop back to a three or four, and then right after it should should get back to about normal, so about five or six. I mean, it could vary through out the week with the storm coming there. Alright, Cameron, well, thanks for joining me and good luck to you and everyone else from Cut four Outdoors. Thank you alright and joining us on the line. Next is Dylan Lens out of North Dakota from Breaking Point TV. Dylan, on a scale of one to tendon, what would you say the buck activity has been lately? I would say it's about a six right now. Um, we had some warm weather while we were out hunting through the opener of this past weekend and started off strong with some high pressure. We had some good buck movement and then it really tailed off. Is that weather stabilized and uh, I didn't have much daylight activity for bucks at once. That kind of settled out. Someone in your group did have success though. On was it opening night there in North Dakota? Opening night? Are buddy and in script checked or JP as we call him, uh took out an awesome velvet stuck on opening night UM with quite a bit of daylight left, so he was he was pretty fortunate to be in the right place at the right time out there, and I believe does this first of velvet white scales. So it was a pretty awesome night. And what do those setups look like that you guys were using. Was it mostly field edgies. Yeah, it's almost all feel edges that were hunting out there on North Dakota's a lot of big marshes um where you can't really get in and get on it. Didn't you know, access point to you know, set up an ambush. So he kind of gotta pick tree rows or small wood lots where we think we can get the beer. Um while they're headed to food, you know, leaving the big marshes and kind of in a vulnerable spot. Tell me more about that buck that your buddy killed. How early was that deer out moving? Was he traveling with others? So he was actually coming behind two doughs, Um, it was kind of a different situation. He had crossed the road and a car had come past right about when they crossed the road, so kind of hurried that buck up, um coming towards the tree line that he was sitting on, and he basically followed the dosh down the trail and straight as to stand. So it just worked out perfect. That was I believe with another hour hour and a half of daylight left. So it's really fortunate to have that movement that early. You guys had a really short window there in North Dakota, because I know a few years took off and are now haunting Muley's when the window is that tight. Are you hunting any mornings early in the season like this? We truly don't hunt mornings in North Dakota just because of our stand setups. Um, you know, we went in there, we'd definitely be pushing dear off for food and we aren't hunting betting areas, because like I said, you know, they're betting out in the marches and that sort of thing. So if we're going in the morning, we pretty much blow the whole sit right off the bat. So kind of getting out there where we think that deer headed to, are in between where they're headed to and their betting has worked out best for us. That's always happening in the keeping. What was the ratio of velvet bucks to hard worn bucks there in North Dakota while we were out there this patch weekend, it was almost all still velvet. We had one buck that was full hearted horns, had some awesome horners of him actually uh right before he lost his velvet and then he must have you know, went and shredded it right nearby. And that was actually in August, so that was pretty early. Um, but all the other year that we had on camera or saw while we were in the stand, we're still holding velvet. So that was pretty cool. Had those opportunities while we were there on those velvet buckets. Are you guys worried about water sources all this time of year? Is that something that you focus on just like you would these food sources. How were we hunt in North Dakota. It's so wet anyway, with all the marshes that first wet of the years it's been out there, we haven't noticed a heck of a lot of difference in you know, their activity um pertaining to water. So I don't know, you know, if you were in a drier area, maybe it's be a little bit different because of how much water is available to him this year. But we just didn't notice that kind of you know change. I know, you guys are potentially hitted back to North Dakota like next week or so, how will your actors have changed from just a few days ago to about seven days from now. During the early season, we pretty much kind of employed the same tactics and you know, really just checking the cameras and trying to stay out of air as much as possible, keeping them fresh, sneaking in during broad daylight middle of the day when we know we can get in there those deer in the marshes, they're gonna see yea, We go in check the camera see if they were in that area either you know, before dark the night before or maybe move through on their way back into bed in the morning. And then we just try and pick that spot and play the wind and hope that they're going to make that mistake again or show up during daylight. Going forward. Then in the six week or so, what do you think that bucket activity is going to be on a scale of one to ten in North Dakota. I would say it's still going to be that six maybe seven area. It's really gonna depend on the weather. I haven't looked at the expended forecast, but you know, if we get a little bit of cool front um and some higher pressure, I think maybe those bucks will get on their feet a little earlier. Our Dylan, thanks for joining me, good luck on the rest of your traveling haunts and everyone else from the Breaking Point TV. Thanks a lot you guys.
