2026 Whitetail Forecast: Best Times & Tactics for the Entire Season
When should you wait for the right conditions—and when should you get more aggressive? This 2026 whitetail forecast follows the season from September's shifting buck patterns through the November rut and into late-season food sources. On episode 183 of the Bowhunter Podcast, Christian Berg welcomes Emily Konkler and Darron McDougal, with Danny Farris joining later, for a practical discussion of when, where and how they hunt mature whitetails. The panel starts with disappearing early-season bucks: what changes when velvet comes off, food sources shift and hunting pressure increases? They explain how trail-camera information, property knowledge and carefully chosen conditions influence when they hunt—and when they stay out. October brings acorns, cold fronts and opportunities around Halloween. Emily shares how she learned a new property and adjusted her approach to take her split-G2 buck. Darron and Danny discuss hunting from the ground, calling and using decoys in open terrain. For the prime rut, the conversation turns to all-day sits, midday movement, bedding-area funnels and more aggressive approaches. Danny explains his buck-and-doe decoy setups before the panel moves into December's secondary rut and January's food-driven patterns. The episode uses the Fish and Game Forecaster as a starting point, alongside the panel's personal experience. Their date selections are predictions, not guarantees; local conditions, deer behavior and hunting pressure remain central to the discussion. Listen for: • Why early-season buck patterns can disappear overnight • Early-October food sources and late-October cold fronts • November rut timing and midday opportunities • Ground hunting and buck-and-doe decoy setups • Secondary-rut opportunities and late-season food • When to be patient and when to change your approach Featuring Christian Berg, Emily Conklar, Darron McDougal and Danny Farris. Bowhunter Podcast: All bowhunting, all the time.

How do you balance marriage, family and a serious passion for bowhunting?

Greg and Alison revisit the story behind his 2012 article Tribute to a Bowhunter's Wife, including the hunting question Greg asked Alison on their very first date and the approach that has helped them balance family life with an intense hunting schedule. The conversation then turns to Greg's decades-long pursuit of DIY public-land whitetails, his evolution into saddle hunting and one-sticking, lightweight mobile hunting setups, tree safety and why mobility has changed the way many experienced bowhunters approach the woods. Along the way, Christian, Greg and Alison trade stories about family, hunting partners, raising young hunters and the realities of spending a lifetime pursuing whitetails. Topics include: Balancing marriage, family and hunting Greg and Alison's first-date hunting story 37 years of DIY public-land bowhunting Whitetail strategy and mobile hunting Saddle hunting and one-sticking Lightweight climbing systems Tree-stand and saddle safety Hunting with family Staggs in the Wild The Bowhunter Podcast is presented by Tactacam.

Why Saddle Hunting Makes You a Better Bowhunter
Bowhunting season is almost here, and mobility could be the key to getting within range of your next buck. Bowhunter editor Christian Berg sits down with Tethrd co-founder Greg Godfrey to talk saddle hunting, the new Phantom XP, and why a lightweight, mobile setup can give bowhunters more options in the field. Greg and Christian break down some of the biggest misconceptions surrounding saddle hunting, from comfort and safety to the perceived learning curve. They discuss how quickly new saddle hunters can become comfortable climbing, shooting and setting up—and why a saddle can replace an entire collection of traditional tree stands. They also dive into the new Phantom XP, which combines the simplicity of Tethrd's original Phantom with an expansion panel designed to provide additional comfort during long sits without sacrificing mobility. And with Christian discovering a potential 190-inch Kentucky whitetail on his trail camera, the conversation quickly turns to putting those saddle-hunting tactics to work. In this episode: Why saddle hunting isn't as difficult as it looks The advantages of staying mobile Single-panel vs. two-panel saddles What's new with the Tethrd Phantom XP How to practice shooting from a saddle Choosing and preparing trees for different wind directions Getting started before hunting season Greg's upcoming whitetail hunts Christian's giant new Kentucky buck Whether you're an experienced saddle hunter or considering making the switch, this episode is packed with practical advice for becoming lighter, faster and more adaptable in the whitetail woods.

Shoot Better by Shooting Farther: Spot Hogg's PRIZ System
On this episode of the Bowhunter Podcast, we sit down with Bryce Pick from Spot Hogg Archery and longtime bowhunter and writer Jace Bauserman to break down one of the most interesting new bowsight innovations in recent years: the Spot Hogg PRIZ system. The PRIZ is a non-magnifying prism designed to work with Spot Hogg's new ROTI sight housing, helping archers gain additional sight clearance and extend their practice range without changing their hunting setup. Bryce explains how the system bends light to shift the sight picture, allowing shooters to move their sight housing higher while still aiming at the same point. Jace shares his real-world experience using the PRIZ in the field and on the range, including how it has helped him practice at extreme distances with his actual hunting bow, arrows and sight setup. The conversation also covers legality, ethical bowhunting, long-distance practice, TAC-style shoots, setup tips and why shooting farther can make normal hunting distances feel more controlled and confident. This is not about encouraging long-range shots on animals. It is about becoming a better archer through better practice, better sight clearance and more precise aiming at extended distances.
