My biggest mistake was watching that whitetail habitat solutions guys, watched his videos thinking i need to put up a swinging deer toy. Dan is the real deal for the type of hunting i want to do. Hit these big bucks right when they open the bedroom door. Shwack. I still need to get out of the mindset of, "oh i hunted this once, i can maybe hunt this a few more times". Nope its once and done, onto the next mature buck/ deer herd to get aggressive on.
Dan is part whitetail. He’s chilling in a t-shirt and the boys are sitting there with hoodies and can’t keep there hands out the pockets. DAN THE MAN
He’s pounding beer that helps
Jack Rapier I'll bet ya a three pack of broad heads that's not a beer.
He’s a big fan of energy drinks, those are what he’s known for as his job starts at like 4 am every day.
Dan provides the "how to" but you need to have the "want to"- nothing he suggests is easy, but it is effective
Yep... You can't teach drive. You really have to want it.
💯
Well said Dude
Dan is the Man wish I could follow him around for just one season. Soo much knowledge.
Dan is the man! Having a core group of hunters to hunt with makes hunting that much better!! I get more excited for when my hunting buddies get deer then when I shoot one myself ..
Thanks for watching!
Not me I try to throw my buddies off the trail of good spots so they're all mine lol
Just started listening. Dude knows his stuff. Gotta hunt where they are. Also you kill them first time on or it gets harder. Almost all my good deer are first sit kills when you have some level of surprise. My biggest southern buck (got bigger in Midwest) I was scouting a thick drain mid day and I found super hot sign under an oak in nasty cover. I immediately went back to camp and got my stuff and he came in before I even had my bow untied.
Love the stories and tactics. Good group of guys sharing and not keeping to themselves.
Learned so much just listening to Dan! I’m already fired up for this season. And I would say stop spitting but everyone else already did. Lol great interview
Yeah, how does a woman ever bring herself into kissing range of a chewer?
in 2017 it was 85 degrees saturday evening hunting a creek bed with huge trail crossing it going to bean field and had 155" 12pt walk by but to dark to shoot. Went back following friday and killed him at 6:30pm cloudy friday evening
Been binge watching all your videos..Great interviews and podcast..Thanks guys
This guy is a huge inspiration. In the south its high pressutre and thick bedding areas but Dans attitude is contagious! Great show. Thanks
We agree and thanks for watching!
Awesome content, could have went 5 hours with a smile on my face.
If you close your eyes- when Dan starts talking it sounds just like Steve Rinella
Great video I've hunted public properties all my life and one private farm. I have never gotten a buck yet,but lots of does. I love the outdoors and hunting is my passion great video.
Thanks for watching!
I See Dan has the best mic. Well deserved!
Sorry, off topic but 3:40 the clip of the buck just casually walking with a tree in its rack 😂😂😂😂😂
Right on Dan
My biggest buck yet was on Wisconsin public. 90 degrees out , nobody in the woods,day before parking lot was full.Nice Typical 8 point.
Dan is a legend
I was Guna say to all these girly men, the man Proli just had a chew in get over it lol
Btw. Great interview as always dan, could listen to your tell hunting stories all day!
I really would like to see what Dan could do in the South East. THP didn't prove so successful in Alabama. I swear the mature deer in the South East are the most switched on whitetails around, not to mention the terrain is insanely thick, green year round and these deer have food year round!
I'd give the boys from the THP another season, those guys are studs they will get their bucks, I think Dan would fare about the same, numbers are what numbers are, nothing mythical about those deer probably just a few more wrinkles to iron out.
Ben Ladik Oh I know they are excellent hunters and of course they honed their skills in their home states. I look forward to more Southeast hunts. I think here in South Carolina our rifle season is just so long which adds another wrinkle!
@@kyler81 It would be a tough hunt down there... My only hunt in Alabama was on private land, and I was surprised at how excited guys got over bucks that guys up here would not blink at. It seemed like 130ish bucks were a lot more rare. I passed a few small bucks and then shot a small buck because it was a hunt to benafit the hungry and I wanted to take one for that. During the night someone stole my antlers. They cut my deers head right off while it was on the game pole. The guy who sponsored the hunt was so worried I would get mad he offered ti buy me a new hunt... I just laughed ans said if the old boy who cut the head off in the middle of the night would of asked, I would of just givin it to him... Anywho, hopefully some day soon I would like to try some public land down that way. Probably end in failure, but I like a good challenge.
The Hunting Beast Yeah the true mature deer are a lot fewer and far between, but we have them. 120+ and it’s a solid buck for the South East! The South Carolina state record is potentially falling after this year 180+, but we just don’t have the amount of ag land and our rifle season is 3 months long! I actually have come across some private access in your home state of WI this year looking to try and come up for early season sept.!
@@kyler81 You should come up if you have the chance... We have some great and under utilized public land in the HILLEY AREAS Of S/W Wisc.
Dan is my hero! I’m hunting Central Florida this season. Going to employ Beast Methods- public land. Should be interesting-lol
michael Morrison I’ll be hunting central to south central Florida as well good luck out there
Did you ever shoot anything??
@@half-assedandnotfast3375 no only encountered a few doe and a small buck. Public is so hard to hunt in Florida- very crowded. Lots of sign of bucks but they super pressured.
@@michaelmorrison9961 same here in Massachusetts I managed to kill to scrub bucks and a doe on public last season. Finally figuring out how to get to pressured deer.
About to watch the video but what an epic title.
Alekart Thanks for tuning in!
Good video guys
Dan do you have any comments or instructions on morning hunting?
Come try that one two three kill here in these huge mountains of Harlan Ky cause bet it’s not that easy! We have no agricultural land, only mountains, big mountains! I’d love to see y’all make a video here in Harlan Ky!
Wish we had late season cold in the south. Funny. You JUST a said it was a northern thing while I was typing. 😉
Dan you got any experience hunting in tagelder swamps...if so any ideas?
How do you locate the buck without scouting??
Every time I here this guy talk it reminds me of meat eater! He has that professorial tone that’s great for story telling.
I was listening to this trying to figure out who he sounded like. You're definitely right, he sounds a lot like Steve Rinella
He does but meateater no mature buck slayer
Great interview. Which episode on Dan's channel is the hunt with Mario? Also the link to Dan's channel isn't working.
The link should be working, let us know if the issue persists!
Here's the hunt that was referenced: ruclips.net/video/zCEisXJ2AO4/видео.html
One massive factor is how hunting pressure will affect a bucks habits and travel patterns..late season bucks can be very illusive. idealistic areas of a particular buck will change due to hunting pressure..
2.3
last three deer I killed over 175 was with a dip in let it go people
Code Name good for you douche bag
Yeah, your wife probably actually insists you to go to the woods.
Iowa or Kansas?
Look out we have a badass over here
You guys are lucky. In a lot of your areas you have like 20% forest cover and deer pile into it or wetlands. Here we have 90% forest cover consisting of thick fir and spruce. Baiting is necessary to establish axis of movement
What state?
Hes dead on about mature bucks in the rut. Ive killed a nice 8 probably 3.5 years and nice 10 (both are on the wall) during the rut but neither were "mature" bucks. The biggest buck Ive ever seen stepped out on a power line during the rut and looked nervous. Even from that distance his rack was huge. I took a poor shot from about 200 yards, i missed and I've never seen him again in the past two years lol
What state was this if you dont mind me asking
What kind of chair is Dan sitting in?
I've watched this video before because, as newt told Gus when Gus told Him Call was his father in Lonesome Dove, "Just knowin' means somthin' I guess," because if "public land parking lots" exist here in Fl, I have never seen 'em. There's public land in the form of WMA's but you don't just go to a parking lot and walk in without a ticket to hunt in THAT specific WMA. I'm 68, and I lived on the edge of town and hunted out my front door across the road and into the woods from the age of about 13. I have 3 sons and all the land I used to hunt is locked up tighter than dicks hat band now. I miss them not having the opportunity and the challenge to just roam the woods and figure it out. My oldest goes to the trouble and he kills enough to pack my freezer. I just can't seem to bring myself to it. It's like, "OK hunters, here's another restriction and another added cost",.... Then in the next breath, "We need you to introduce your children to hunting and pass the tradition on so we don't lose hunting altogether." "Oh, and BTW, we're closing those properties your sons COULD park and hunt as of the 2019/2020 season."
The FWC thanks you for your understanding."
I hunted at no cost BTW.
EX: There's federal property less than an hour away i hunted in my younger days. The cost of entry was the price of a lunch then. Try to fit a father and 3 boys into a blue collar budget at $750 a head now just to get through the gate.
OK, i'm done.
And rooster said tighter dicks hatband and u can get em cheaper than that Woodrow
@32.28 was getting so good should let him finish
Chad's big ol' dip lol
Do the podcast in the shed next time! 😂
All Hail The King of the North......I do have a question for anyone. What kind of terrain is bedding normally in? Also how do you differentiate buck bedding vs doe bedding?
Does bed for convenience, bucks bed for security. Unless it's a smart old doe
Apparently, Dan don't get cold. The other guys have their hand in their pockets they're so cold and Dan is causally sporting a T-shirt
partner348 we can attest that it was chilly that day! Haha
😂
How does your guys theft control work on your cameras?

Does he hunt rut...doe beds for bucks
I hunt doe bedding, funnels and such, but what has netted my best rut bucks size wise is hunting "rut" beds... They are specifically placed to monitor doe beds, food, or trails.
@@thehuntingbeast and that is usually where and what distance from doe beds iyo
@@EinsteinTeachedYou 75 to 200 yards commonly. They set up to watch the exit / entrance of doe bedding or watching a food source does hit in daylight... There not always down wind.
is that a redbull
Weird. Both my big bucks were shot the same day I hunted and set up. no better feeling telling your friends and family that you're going to go shoot a buck and then do it. 😁
This just came across my feed didn't see the date lol
I'm extremely skeptical that any of these whitetail gurus would have the same success in the flat swampy terrain that I hunt...
Does anyone know a buckmaster who's had success in a place similar to Northern Minnesota 🤔?
Challenging area indeed! Not speaking for Dan, but we'd guess almost all of the same principals would apply.
Dan hunts a lot of swampland. We have quite a bit in Wisconsin as well, depending on what part of the state you're in. He's got multiple videos out on how to dissect that kind of terrain.
824👍 out of 92k views….too many lazy/inpatient people. Toughen up kids.
Every thing you think is wrong. Every thing he thinks is right.
Dan I truly believe you would be LOST in SE Tn. There are no "beds".
It's all Beds!!!
Ex the spitting and level the audio out. Hard to watch and listen to the audio getting quiet and super loud.
Great content love this type of interview. Great job trying to keep it fresh and ask new questions. Thanks guys.
Hunting & Fishing Lovin Everyday thanks for the feedback. It was a bit windy outside and we did the best we could with the conditions. Thanks for watching 👊🏼
Dude on the right is always looking concerned
you can do that from a distance? are you kidding me?
Only one spitting seems to be Dan in my opinion.
Why is this guy always condescending to other hunters? “Other guys do this… Other guys do that…” I can’t listen to it.
He speaks as if he can just find a buck and go kill it. He really hasn't killed much in the last 10 year. When he speaks in absolutes I laugh. His tactics do work in some situations but are very one dimensional. If anyone has followed this guy for awhile they will see he is not even in the top 50 hunters of his own forums. The real question is how much did Andre teach him because it's been flat for him since they went their separate ways.
300 dressed?
Once again Dan Infault disappoints. Classic example of a narcissist.
damn drippy quit spittin
aaron turnwald got it. No more snuff during interviews!! Haha
Didn’t realize so many moms watching.
Great , super vidio . A lot less spitting , please
That spittings got to go bro! Lol
Joe P we’ve known Dan for a few years now, no disrespect intended. I have the message load and clear no more snuff during interviews haha
If that dude bends over and spits one more time I'm done with this video!!!
Mitchell Kerchner see ya.
So leave. No one is begging you to stay and you certainly won't be missed
I’m sorry but some of what this guy says just sounds like a bunch of bull shit. He killed a monster buck within hundred yards of the public parking area and knew the spot was there because he sat there and watched the bucks make a scrape? He’s got to be the luckiest guy on earth for that to actually happen..
Hes done it more then once actually!!! Hahaha
Or one the smartest
I really like hearing Dan talk and I have alot of the same thoughts he does, but I cant watch all of this for the damn spitting. If that kid spits like that all the time, I doubt he will ever kill a mature buck no matter how many pointers he gets from Dan.
heath5858 Mario dips and he's killed some dinks.
No legit interesting material in the last 20 years
Drama queen
Stop spitting it’s distracting
This guy is so cocky. He thinks he is the whitetail whisper. Public in Tennessee is a different beast. Take hunters Tennessee and let them hunt these Midwest states I’m sure more Boone and Crockett deer will be recorded.
Try MD I'm 51 started hunting at 16 I've hunted public land most of my life, and one farm last year, its hard but I love the adventure and outdoors.
I have never gotten a buck yet.
The man is good don't be mad just because you can't kill a mature buck
@@philipwoody5746 hunting is all about passion and attitude, and enjoying the great outdoors. This video was right on the mark!
Lol, try hunting Michigan public land. The land of 1 year old spikes and 4 points. Not too many live past 1.5 years old. Unless you want to invest thousands in farm equipment and land management, you gotta hunt state land along with thousands of other idiots.
