Description

Public land hunting isn’t forgivingβ€”and the truth is, most hunters fail because of small mistakes that add up to big failures. In this episode of Backbone Unlimited, Matt Hartsky breaks down the 5 biggest mistakes Western hunters make on public land and how to avoid them. From ignoring hunting pressure, sticking to dead zones too long, and underestimating backcountry fitnessβ€”to sloppy access routes and waiting for β€œperfect” conditionsβ€”you’ll learn how to hunt elk and mule deer smarter, adapt faster, and increase your success this season.


Whether you’re bowhunting elk in September or glassing mule deer basins in November, this episode delivers real-world public land hunting tips to help you fill more tags and avoid season-ending errors.
