Welcome to the WHTL Podcast, your source for Whitetail Deer Hunting Tactics, Stories & Expert Guests. In this episode, we're back in the studio with the ice man himself Heath Cisco.

On this episode, we break down how:

• Overhunting small farms will cost you mature bucks.
• Mature deer often shift seasonal ranges (October ≠ January).
• Shed location doesn't equal early-season location.
• Rut funnels require daily commitment—not random sits.
• Postseason scouting must account for seasonal movement shifts.
• Baiting + crossbows + cell cams = hyper-effective hunters.
• The biggest evolution in Heath's career: hunting deer, not spots.
• February–April adjustments are critical for small farm optimization.

And So Much More!
