EP:265 | Managing Whitetails with Matt Brock

Gamekeeper Podcast

17-09-2024 • 1 hr 36 mins

This week we have an interesting in studio discussion on managing whitetails with biologist, and well-known bow hunter, Matt Brock. Matts worked for the states of Mississippi and Alabama and has seen a lot of habitat and ideas. We discuss trail cameras, bottomland versus upland habitat, coyotes and predator management, rainfall amounts and its effect on management practices, tried-and-true strategies he’s acquired over the years, managing expectations, and more. He also tells the story of how his dog, while blood-trailing a deer, got into Temik AND his inadvertent exposure to it while caring for his dog. Matt came very close to having a tragic ending. It’s a hard story for him to tell but we hope someone can learn from it. At the end, he pulls out a jungle carpet python and tells us about his love of reptiles. It’s a great discussion. Listen Learn and Enjoy.
