  • Developing Habitat for Ducks with Clay Davis
    Jan 10 2026

    Today we are talking about developing habitat for ducks. Clay Davis has developed duck holes on his own properties, and also works with Mossy Oak in and around much of their waterfowl areas. He has spent the time on the tractor seat and in the blind, and has a ton of knowledge on what works and what doesn't.

    We also talk about how to minimize reduce pressure on your ducks and how best to hunt it. The underlying theme from our discussion is that you can add value to your property by adding a duck hole, you can greatly improve your duck hunting experience by having a private place that you control, and you can also improve waterfowl numbers and production in your area if you manage it properly.

We discuss the possible reasons, as well as the impact to deer and business. Including a 50% drop in corn sales and a big time slow down for deer processors. What will it mean for deer health? Tune in for more.

  • Deer Meat Episode 65
    Nov 19 2025

    Venison is arguably the perfect protein. It's lean, it's clean, readily available, and versatile. On this episode we talk about the standard ways to cook it, the fancy ways, and give you an inside look into a deer processor operation. Families today are more particular than ever about where their food comes from, this alone has led some people to take up hunting. We feel like you should not overlook the value and quality of a good venison meal.
