Foreign welcome back to Live Wild podcast, everyone. Now this week we're going back in the open and we're going to explore strategies getting close in that sparse cover. So last week we looked at stalking techniques where in that open country, the hunter moves in on the animal and uses a few different things that kind of tip the scales in their favor. This week we're going to look at a strategy where the animal does most of the moving and you're set up to intercept. On many hunts, this strategy involves a hunter moving some, but allows the animal to close the majority of the distance to their location. This works really well on a variety of hunts by using three main things. A knowledge of their routes, the sign that's on the ground, and picking a location where the hunter can move based on how the animal is moving so they find a spot that allows them some kind of COVID while the animal does most the traveling. But before we get into that, I want to share the story of a recent hunt for Axis deer where I took a buck on my birthday. What a better way to celebrate my birthday than to get out on a hunt and chase some Axis deer with my bow. So I got up early in the morning, my brother and I headed out and we just decided to split up and, and hunt this, this particular area. Now, the area was super open, which can be a good thing and a bad thing. In some instances, you know, it's difficult to stalk, but other times it can be good because there could be a lot of animals moving through. So essentially the plan was work into the wind. There's kind of a Few, like, the thought was they're in an area where they're feeding, and then there's an area where they'll move to. To bed. But the hard part about that is, you know, if you're. You could wait where they're going to bed, that gives you a little bit more, I'd say, like, leeway for movement because it's thicker cover. But there's this large section of open, and they're going to cross through that first. And it can be a timing issue, right, because you could be in the bedding area, but you could be in one spot, not see them because there is more cover. So I opted to just start working toward where they were feeding through this large section of open. And so as I'm moving in, I actually, first thing, kind of bumped a couple deer. There's like a. Like three nice bucks and bumped them that I just didn't see. I think I was just, I don't know, maybe moving too quick or whatever. There was a little bit of a dip, and I just. I just didn't see him in there. So they moved off. And those were the only deer that I. That I first saw. So I figured, well, most of the deer are probably still feeding, and I have time to kind of get into position. So I worked in the direction that they went. And as I was going, I was just kind of like zigzagging, glassing, moving, and looking for good sign on the ground, like a good hard trail. Because I figured they're. They're probably doing this every day in some ways. And I would imagine that they would probably take similar trails and then they'd start to split up. So I was starting to see. I wasn't seeing very much sign where I was at. So I just kept walking till I started to see sign. And I ran into a good trail with a lot of tracks, you know, droppings that were within a day or two old. And started following that in the direction into the wind. So I'm doing that and. And I look out into the open ahead, and there happened to be this. This group of deer. So I get behind a bush, there's like one bush there. And try to make a play or a plan. I think if I. If I get around, I could actually crawl in and get into position, maybe get up a little further. They're like three or 400 yards away. And while I'm doing that, I'm actually filming myself doing a little self filming. And freaking doe and fawn popped out at like, I don't know, 18 yards on this trail. I didn't see him because I was behind the bush. And they, they walk around. I'm just in a bad spot. They blow out, they kind of run toward the other deer and then those other deer see that movement and spook. But that also gave me kind of what I was thinking was, okay, I'm moving on this trail till I find a good spot that I could set up off the trail on the downwind side and use that as a starting point. So I'll get into a place where I think the deer like, because there's less cover. I'll find one little spot where there might be cover, pop off the trail 30 or 40 yards and then, and then wait and at least glass from there and see what happens. So I'm working into the wind. I'm kind of like looking around too, because I want to make sure that I'm on like the best looking trail. And like, if you're anywhere, you, you'll. You'll see game trails. There's like game trails all over. And there's one that just definitely had more tracks. I'd already seen deer on this, this particular trail, so I followed it kind of toward where those other. That other group was, thinking, well, maybe those deer came this way. And, and sure enough, that trail went right there. So I got into a spot and I actually look, looked probably about 600 yards away, 4 to 600 yards away. I saw some deer starting to pop up from like this, the creek area where I imagine they were coming from, and decided, okay, this is a good trail. It didn't seem like it lined up with where those deer were, but I, I just went with the information that I had. I was on a good trail and I had. The wind was like coming from the. Say that, let's say the trail went east, west. The wind was coming from the north. So I found. There was a. I kept walking till I found this spot where there's like a good little cluster of trees about 30 yards off this trail. So I. On the downwind side, so I pop there and we're just putting all my eggs in this basket. And sure enough, out pops a buck a ways away. One buck, two bucks, three bucks, four bucks. And I don't know how many bucks are in there. I should go back and count. It looked like 30 to 50 bucks, maybe more. Just a massive bachelor group of bucks of varying sizes and growth. So some were starting out growing, Some were smaller bucks, some were hard velvets, like all within that velvet category. I don't Even know if there's any hard horn ones in there. But all just like bachelor group of fuzzy antlered bucks. So I stuck off the trail. I set my camera up and everything and just tucked down. There was a little bit more cover there. It was just so open everywhere else. And sure enough, here come the deer. And it looked like, you know, they'd crossed and went. And I thought, and are they going to come this way? And sure enough, that trail that had the most sign was the trail that they'd prefer. They probably did this nearly every morning. I just happened to. My plan was find a good trail, set up off the trail, and I happened to pick the right trail. So I'm sitting there and here they come filtering through, filtering through, filtering through. And there's actually so many of them, so many eyes. I was waiting for the right opportunity. I knew that I kind of had to let them pass in a certain way. So they all start to cluster up and. And they're feeding on whatever bushes they can. One comes up and they keep passing this branch and there's not a lot of browse because it's pretty open. And they're standing on their hind legs, nibbling at some of the trees and dropping down and moving. And I was looking for the right buck with the right opening. They kind of separated out. So there were some more trees kind of across from me there as well, but not as much cover in there. And so they start going in. One of the bucks that I saw coming up, I was like, see a buck to my right and wait for them to pass and then plan on hoping to get a shot at that buck. So I kind of had everything already ranged. But as the smaller bucks were filtering through the ones that I didn't want, I ranged where they were at just to know. It's like 30 something yards. And I saw a good, like hard velvet coming through, is pretty much grown out. So I figured that that's going to be my target buck. There was another one that was pretty cool though. He had like this big club dropper thing like access deer. Funny because they do. They don't really grow atypical often, so you must add some kind of damage. Like anytime you can find one that's not a 3x3, it's pretty cool. This one had like a big old club on one side, but he went on the other side of this tree and never, never got a shot at him. So set my pin, ranged and, and drew back and I shot the buck and all the deer. It kind of like Ran off and all the other deer kind of hung around a little bit. And so I just waited there and. And then I actually text my brother because all the deer were just still clustered up. My brother, I knew was on the creek bottom somewhere else. I text him how his morning was going and he was like, hey, I actually see a bunch of deer. And I looked over and I saw my brother over there. He was, he wasn't that far away. He was by the. The only other like big cluster, like a big bush aways away. So I text him, I was like, hey, just, just wait there because those deer crossed right by that tree. And so he ended up waiting there. My deer fed off, moved off and went into the bedding zone. So I just left that buck for now. And I went to, to go to my brother to help video. So I ran over to where my brother was at, got behind the bush with him, and another group of bucks started to come out. And I. They were actually moving toward him as I moved in. And I was kind of thinking he should have dropped back to where I was because it's a better position because I did see those deer go past that one bush, but they're pretty tight. So as the deer moving in, he's like, I'm gonna stay here. So I just moved up to him, use that kind of big tree as cover to get into position. And I got there just before the deer started filtering out. So I got the camera set up on the tripod and the first one was coming like right to us. I mean like way too close. Like 10 yards, sub 10 yards. And it was just a growing out little buck. And there's some big like over 30 inch bucks in this group. Which for axis deer, anything over 30 is like a pretty good. Pretty good buck. Really good buck actually. But there's some. There's some big velvets in there. And that one walks in, it kind of thinks something's up. I've got my camera up and I'm just. Now I'm not even focused on the camera. I'm like ranging, ranging, whispering. And that. That buck got a little suspicious and bumped out a little bit, which was actually good. And so now here comes. I see just like antlers of the. The two big bucks are coming out and they're like 30 yards. I tell my brother, 30 yards. In the meantime, I didn't know cause I was watching through my range finder trying to help him. The camera like fell down. So I didn't even get it on video. But the bucks step out he's already at full draw. He drew before they stepped out. So I'm like, just draw back. Cause I'll range. So they. He draws back. The bucks are walking out. They stop, but they kind of know something's up. 30. I think it was like, 30 yards. Just over 30 yards. He shoots. And like, access deer, when they duck the string, they duck the string. Like, the buck, they generally spin. Like, if you. The hard part about access deer is, like, if they know you're there, they drop low and often spin that buck. By the time the arrow got there at 30 yards, the buck had already completely wheeled around. He was facing left. By the time the arrow got there, it passed his. Like, the buck's head was on the left, the buck's head was on the right, and the arrow was to the left of the buck's butt, like, right where it should have been. The buck wasn't even close to there at 30 yards by the time that shot broke. And just. It was just a bummer. So we ended up getting some more stocks in. And, I mean, like, we crawled in on a group later. I recovered my buck. Like, it was a. It was an awesome, hard, velvet buck. Like, just. Just a lot of fun. It was cool. On, like, my 40th birthday, to have shot a deer and had it work out. Like, it was such open country and just picking the right trail, picking the right spot and doing that, like, moving and intercepting. Worked out in this particular scenario and gave me the opportunity to kind of be within range. I mean, I was probably within range of. I don't know how many deer were in that group. Let's just go 30 to 80 bucks. I don't know. Like, it was just a pile of bucks, and that's probably something that would been very, very difficult to crawl in on. Maybe once they bedded in that thicker stuff, you could have crawled in, but it's been harder to pick out, like, out of that. However many deer there were, there was probably only four or five that I would have considered, like, shooters, like, big enough or grown out enough. So to find the one that could have been a shooter out of that would have been difficult. But as they're moving, they're stringing out, they're. They're giv. It gave me more opportunity to pick out and target the right buck. And in that open country, it could be very difficult to sneak in. So a good tactic was, you know, getting into a good position, finding good position, setting up, and allowing them to close the distance as opposed to moving in on Them. So in this part of hunting open country animals, we're going to look at those strategies where the animals do a lot of the moving and then you're kind of set up. So it is in some ways what I consider an ambush technique or tactic. But it can be very effective on a lot of animals that are in that real open country because moving in on them sometimes might seem near impossible or could be very difficult, especially when there's a lot of eyes. So a lot of the hunts that I'm thinking about that this applies to would be pronghorn hunting in that real open country, Open country elk hunting. Like I've use these strategies in that stuff where amen. Cover might be sparse, or maybe they're more out in those sage flats and stuff like that. Places where you can still encounter elk in. In those particular situations. And then another real big one, mule deer. Like a lot of the places I've hunted for mule deer in that Nevada or Idaho type areas where it's just that open high desert and, you know, sometimes you. You run out of available cover, animals put themselves in the open as a safety measure and mech. And so there are some ways that you can take advantage of, I guess, knowledge of their routes and really kind of put yourself in an advantageous position where think about it like, you know, stalking the animal moves and then you move in the rest of the way. So they might go to a place and then you're. You're doing all the moving. With this particular open country tactic, the animal might be moving 80% and you're doing the rest. You know, the other 20% is on you. So we're going to look at the ways that we can kind of break down and strategize and get close to animals in that real open country or put ourselves in a position where they get close to us. It's a really good tactic too, because, you know, oftentimes they're, they're calmer, more unaware, and it gives you a little bit more time to make a good move, observe, make a good shot, and essentially be unnoticed. So we're going to look at. The first thing that I think is. Is very important when we're talking about this kind of open country strategy is first having a knowledge of their routes, having a knowledge of what you're looking for. Now, this knowledge of the routes, like on this access deer hunt, I'd never been in there in that particular area, but I was able to decipher areas that they might move through based on sign. And oftentimes this is something that I might like, particularly with pronghorn or, you know, animals, where I'm, like, still hunting, and all of a sudden I see, oh, here's a trail with a lot of fresh tracks, a lot of fresh sign. Okay, this is an area where they. They move through. Maybe it's an area where I've seen them before, and I don't know exactly where to set up. So I, like, think about this, where this has happened so many times, pronghorn hunting, especially where I'm glassing in the morning and it's like, okay, I think they're moving from. There's maybe a bunch of water, so it's not worth sitting water, because they can go to any water. But I see them. This one particular spot I was hunting, I could see there was a bunch of. There's like, a creek and some springs, and you could even be on a spring. But it runs down far enough where, hey, maybe you're not even gonna get shot. But they would hit that in the morning, and then they would walk across this flat and kind of go over to the other side, and they'd make, like, this circuit, and you're sitting back glassing. I realized, like, dude, they're crossing through this area a lot, but there's no way you're going to crawl up on them in this area. You'd be crawling for miles, and by the time you get there, you know, it's not going to work. So I would. I would kind of work into the wind toward where they were. They would start to water and just kind of going through that flat and go, oh, here's a good trail. Here's a good trail. This trail has a lot of tracks. Okay. Then I would continue to move down in that direction, continually scanning the horizon for the pronghorn kind of coming my direction. And a lot of times, okay, once I would see them, I could get down, and I know that I would be in a good position to intercept them based off of the sign that's on the ground. Oh, here's a spot that they take more likely than not. Elk, especially. Like, I'll sit back in that open country, and as long as there's not a crazy amount of pressure, like, you've got it in some ways sorted to yourself. And even if there is pressure, you can kind of identify where the elk like to go and what they like to do. And I'll sit back and watch and then plan my ambush spots from there. You know, having that pre knowledge, whether it's in the field, scouting Whether it's, you know, while you're, you know, like, pre scouting, preseason scouting, knowing the animal or taking time during the hunt to be patient and really learn the way that the animals move. There's a particular area that I bow hunted a lot, and I've taken some really good bucks over the years. This is back when you can kind of just get tags and hunt the same place year after year. You know, sometimes that's not doable now, but I'd spent hundreds of days in this unit between preseason scouting during the season, pretty much all seasons, but. And, man, my thing was, like, I would just, I would spend the majority of the hunt just watching the deer. Now, this was, you know, quite a while ago where when I had essentially a lot of time to focus on this one tag, and I would often just have that one tag and really, like, hone in on it. And honestly, I've talked to my buddies about this. Like, sometimes I, I, I'll do a lot more hunts now and, and go different places, which I love. But there's something to that really dedicating to one hunt. Like, I, I would pass up bucks that today would be, you would just, you know, die for, really, because I had the time to do it. And mule deer populations were up, and it was, you know, they were there, it was available, and you just need the time to dedicate. But during those hunts, I learned so much about me deer and me deer behavior and knowledge of their routes and other things. The thing that about that gets me about mule deer and one of the reasons that when people are like, what's the most difficult hunt or thing to get with a bow? And I honestly believe, like, a big, mature mule deer buck is one of the hardest things, especially in, you know, there's places where mule deer can be very dumb. I'm not gonna lie. Like, there are places where meal deer can be stupid, but there's a lot of places out west where they are far from that. And then even just being able to get on a mature buck with a bow can be so difficult. And one of the reasons that make it difficult is, like, there's an area where I have watched deer for, let's call it, I mean, it's over a hundred days, just hundreds of days, really, over the course of years, right? And it's like they have these patterns. They have these, these things that they do, yet it's always just a little different. And compared to elk or white tails or whatever, those animals kind of do the same thing. More often than not, mule deer Might do the same general thing, but it's never the same. And that's what makes mule deer like. It's rarely ever the same. I think if it is the same, it's just, like, random in some ways, it seems like. And that's what makes mule deer so difficult. But when we're talking about this knowledge of routes, I would sit, I would watch, I learn. And I was looking for that overarching kind of pattern. Like, they would feed in the mornings and the evenings in this giant sage flat, right. It was miles across, where they'd pop out. And wherever they go, you know, would kind of be different all the time. So you'd think you. So I'd sit, and I'd have my glassing vantage, and I'd go, okay, I'm looking for them. They'd often be feeding in certain places, and then you'd see him there. And that night, you put them to bed. In the morning, they get up and move off one direction or the other. And so they would be in the same general areas, but they wouldn't do the exact same thing. So how do you. How do you build, like, an ambush strategy off of that? And one of the ways that would work really well in. And this works extremely well, like, across the board for that open country and trying to get into position is I would find places where they're likely to go Based off of knowledge scouting. Like, even you say you find the trails, you find the tracks. Okay, they like this particular area. They like to go into here. This has what they need. Like, this has got the bedding that they like or what have you. And I put myself in a position where I could watch them coming and make some moves. So I would choose a location that I could continually adjust and yet be out of sight, but close enough to, like, to take advantage of that open country. So it might be something like pronghorn hunting, like I said, in that big flat. But there's one ditch in the middle. Okay. So I. I kind of am at that. And I see them coming. And then I continue to adjust my tactic of where I can. I can move up and down that laterally to try to get into position where it's closest, Where I think that they're going to cross. Same thing with me old year, like, in that particular. We called it the bull, but we would drop down into the bowl, and we would cover the tree edge line. And then we'd watch the deer coming in the open. But we can move and adjust based on the trees. And then as we're moving. Okay. It's like they're moving further that direction. Oh, here's a good trail. I bet they take this trail in, and often they would. So having knowledge of those routes there, you know, by identifying sign and other things, it gives you a place to set up and then planning on in real time, moving and slightly adjusting to those particular preferred routes. As they're moving in the open, it can allow you to get into position to cut them off. And then as they get close, you're locked in, and you're waiting for them to kind of move the rest of the distance because there might not be enough cover to adjust from there. The same thing, you know, can happen on a lot of different hunts where you go, okay, here I see where they're going. I have this amount of knowledge of where they might want to go and the routes that they might want to take, and then I can kind of put myself in a good position. Another thing is, you know, identifying based off of a lot of scouting and other things. Those places that they cross and picking, like I did in the axis deer hunt, picking a place off of that where I have a little bit more cover and freedom to move. So it might just be one larger bush. I've done this pronghorn hunting a lot where, okay, I know that they like to work around in this big. Almost like this big grass. So there's, like, pockets of sage and then real short grass that you couldn't even crawl in. It's just like. It's nearly dirt, but big, open, almost like a lek or something, where you imagine sage grouse strumming around, but just big, open, flat grass. Cattle country. And so I'll know, okay, the. The pronghorn kind of move through here. Maybe I see him out in the distance. I still have to crawl, and I crawl in, and I get myself in a position of the one little hump, the one little feature, the one little bigger bush close to that area where they move back and forth and be patient. I've crawled in on pronghorn that are bedded out in that complete open flat. So my. My portion of the movement is crawling to the closest available cover that I can in that flat and then being patient and letting them work my direction. And that's worked out many times. I've talked about it in the past where, you know, I think spot and stock pronghorn hunting is. It's one of my favorite things to do because it's just. It's just fun, but it can be so challenging, so difficult. Especially in that open country. Yet over the years, I've had a very high percentage shot percentage and like, success in short amount of time just by being willing to crawl that distance and then also finding that right amount of patience of allowing the animal to work toward me where I crawl into the COVID that I can, I. And maybe they're bedded, maybe they're out there. And then let them work my direction, maybe they work another direction. So then I reposition and crawl close and then set up. Oftentimes they're like 150, 170 yards out. And I'm just waiting for one of them to kind of work that open more my direction, cut that in half, cut that to two thirds, you know, bring it in to within bow range. And that still often allows me a spot where maybe I can draw back and shoot unnoticed if I have a little bit more cover than maybe out in complete flat or whatever. So we're using that topography and just the knowledge of their routes and the signs and potentially knowledge of. Through scouting and learning what those animals do to get ourselves to a position, stopping and then, you know, waiting for that opportunity for them to kind of close the gap to us. It works really well as well on elk, where we call it shadowing the herd. And you can go back into some podcasts from last season. There's even one, a really good one we did, it was probably two years ago with Nate Simmons about kind of that strategy of. Of shadowing the elk herd. And it's a really good. In that kind of broken open country where you move in and you wait, you move in and you wait and you allow. You continually do that and do that and do that over and over and over. And sooner or later, one of the animals will make a mistake and move within range. So you're continually moving and shadowing to the available cover and then allowing those animals to kind of close the distance to you. And it can be an extremely effective way to hunt. It's a combination of stalking strategy and, you know, still hunting, where you're kind of merging all the worlds for guys that are whitetail hunters. And it's all about ambush and setting up on the right trails and the right patterns in the right place. It's a very similar strategy, a little bit more dynamic, but it's. It's a fun kind of cat and mouse game where you put yourself into position and. And allow, you know, you do a lot of the work and then allow the animals to kind of finalize that closing of the distance to within bow range. It can even be with a rifle as well in that open country. It works very effective with a rifle. I mean, we've done that pronghorn hunting a lot. Where we're set up in an area, it's like, okay, they're just too far out of range. Or even with the flat terrain, like, you just can't get a shot. And getting into a position ahead of where they're going and then waiting for them to kind of close that gap and get a shot off, it's an extremely effective tactic in that western open country or for whatever animal you're hunting. There's a lot of places, and there's a lot of places around the world even that I've. I've utilized these similar strategies for things like Axis deer and other. I mean, some rusa deer in some more open country or water buffalo, like, just stuff where it's very open and you can kind of use that combination of ambush and stalking. And sometimes it happens in a large scale and sometimes in a small scale. Sometimes you can be in a. I mean, I think about. There's places that I've hunted in New Mexico elk or even like fallow deer in New Zealand and Australia, where, hey, there's a lot of COVID and you're hunting cover, and then you get to the spot where. And there's animals out in the open. Okay, now instead of trying to close the distance in this open, where it's probably going to be very difficult, maybe we use the same strategy and say, where are they going to move out from this open to? Can I get onto a trail or an area that's likely for them to move? Maybe find a place where it can shield my movement and I can move up and down a creek or a rise or within this certain amount of COVID to position myself better as they move, and then sit and let them close the final distance so I can get a shot. And that kind of hunting is extremely effective and is a good tool to have in your arsenal for spot and stock hunting and a lot of big game hunting. Well, I hope you guys enjoyed that podcast and can utilize some of those tactics this fall or. Or whenever your next hunt is. You know, one of the things that I always like to stress is just having a variety of types of tactics that you can use for whatever the species is. So as we talk about these different things, you know, you might see, hear things that correlate from podcasts in the past, or maybe it's new tactics that you're hearing for the first time. But just Always having that ability to recall different tactics for different situations. Hunting, if you want to be very successful at it, it's a very dynamic thing. You have to have a bunch of tools at your disposal. And a lot of those tools just come from a lot of encounters. So, you know, take this stuff, get out in the field and just have that in the back of your mind where, okay, here's a strategy that I could use in this particular situation. Because sometimes you're doing all kinds of different strateg, usually within the same day or even the same hour or even on the same animal half the time. So I hope you guys enjoyed that. One of the things that I wanted to mention, if you guys aren't familiar, my website, Remy Warren dot com. You can go there. You guys can check out. I've got a store there where we've got vortex optics. We got a lot of the stone glacier gear. We've got a lot of our own apparel and other things. There's some stuff that we've been that is back in stock now, some hats and other things that are. That are back in stock. One things I like a lot is our lens cleaner and lens cloth. If you are, like for the season, as you prepare, man, keeping your optics clean, this is easy because it just slides in the back of your, you know, bino harness. Like, I've got the marsupial harness and I got this little spot in the back where I just put my little lens cleaner in the front. The little zipper thing, it's super thin. It's like a credit card. You just spray it and then you just wipe it clean. Having that on you can be a game changer. It's like you got new binoculars every time you clean them for glassing and looking like that. That's a solid. Just something that everybody should probably have. Once I started using it, I was like, oh, yeah. Because I. I really do. You get. You'll. You'll be glassing and like by the end of the day, you're like, gosh, man. You get a little bit of eye strain. You clean the things. It's just like new life into your eyes. You go, wow, I can see so much better. So we've got those on there. We've got. You can get some day six arrows and all that stuff if you're gearing up pre season. So just something to think about if you're gonna. If you. If you need some new gear and you want to buy it from us, I appreciate it. It always helps and kind of supports what I do.
