Welcome to the WHTL Podcast, presented by Moultrie. Your source for Whitetail Deer Hunting Tactics, Stories & Expert Guests. In this episode, we're back in the studio with Chairman of the Ohio Wildlife Council Mike Rex! We Discuss:

• Ohio has lost ~100,000 deer hunters since 2012

• Fewer hunters means less political influence

• EHD wiped out up to 90% of deer in some areas

• Disease outbreaks take 3–5 years to recover from

• Access to land is a bigger issue than regulations

• Trophy focus has reduced doe harvest

• Crossbows drove a major shift toward archery

• Wildlife management always has unintended effects

• Social media magnifies frustration, not accuracy

• Hunter unity matters more than rule changes

And So Much More!
