The best public-land whitetail spot might be the small, overlooked pocket everyone else walks past. Bergy Bowsmith and Alabama hunter Drew Williams share how they find overlooked deer, adapt to different landscapes, and make mobile setups work as hunting pressure rises.Drew has spent years hunting public land in Alabama, where dense woods, steep terrain, and a drawn-out rut call for a different approach than the Midwest. Bergy brings a Midwest perspective shaped by hunting small parcels, finding creative access to public land, and scouting during the season. Together, they make the case for reading the land and deer in front of you instead of simply hiking farther in.They discuss how LiDAR can reveal terrain features standard topo maps may miss, why Drew scouts new ground after a hunt, and how moving to a new setup can pay off. They also compare public-land etiquette, regional rut timing, rattling, and the differences between hunting Alabama and the Midwest.The conversation also covers gear and technique: Drew’s compound arrow setup, his traditional bow tuning process, and why he’s reconsidering saddle hunting with a recurve. Whether you hunt public land, shoot compound or traditional, or want to sharpen your in-season scouting, this episode offers candid insights from two hunters who keep adapting.
