Mule Deer Whitetail Bucks stare off with Beau Martonik

Robby hosts whitetail hunter Beau Martonik of the East Meets West podcast.  In this episode, they dive deep into the intersection of hunting big mule deer and big whitetails.  Although two different species living in different habitats, these guys have discovered there is an overlap in behavior of the big bucks of both species.  Overlaps like an affinity for heavy cover, similar home ranges (at certain times of the year), and the ability to evade most hunters.  They also discuss the differences in the pursuit of the best bucks of each species.

Beau Martonik talks about how he uses trail cameras as one tool for finding big bucks, but not the only tool, and Robby agrees.  They talk about specific tactics for the specific times of the fall like pre-rut, post rut, late season and nuances in between.

Whitetail hunters, especially those hunting the big woods of the Eastern US, have a lot in common with mountain mule deer hunters of the West.  Listen in and enjoy the discussion with Beau Martonik and Robby.

Robby Denning started hunting mule deer in the late 1970’s, only missing one season in 35 years. At 25, he gave up the pursuit of all other big-game to focus on taking the best bucks possible. He began hunting the West on a DIY budget hunting an average of 30 days a year for mule deer. Robby loves the hunt as much as the kill and the entire process from research to scouting to hunting. He’s killed four bucks over 200 inches in the last 15 seasons, mostly on easily-obtained tags. He owns a public-land scouting service and runs a private-land outfitting business helping other hunters in their pursuit of deer and elk. Robby has scouted and hunted literally thousands of square miles of mule deer country and brings a wealth of knowledge about these experiences with him. To him, the weapon of choice is just a means-to-an-end and will hunt with bow, rifle, or muzzleloader – whatever it takes to create an opportunity to take a great mule deer. He is also the author of "Hunting Big Mule Deer" available on Amazon. Robby believes all of creation is from God for man to manage, respect, and through which to know its Creator
