EP.450: Simple Tactics, Big Results & Hunting Stupid | Jason Batson
Description
In this episode of the Truth From The Stand podcast, I sit down with Jason Batson for a no-BS conversation about bowhunting, deer behavior, and the constant process of figuring it all out. Jason shares what it’s like chasing whitetails in the rolling terrain of Missouri, how he plays the wind, and why keeping things simple usually gets him closer to deer. We get into the highs and lows of past seasons—including the ones where things didn’t go as planned—and talk about adapting after injuries, trusting your gut, and learning from every sit. Whether it’s finding fresh sign, hunting scrapes, or just appreciating time in the timber, Jason brings a grounded, thoughtful approach to hunting that’s all about doing the work and enjoying the ride.
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM PODCAST 450
- Wind and deer behavior matter more than scent control.
- Time in the woods and good gear—especially boots—go a long way.
- Mentorship and trial-and-error shape better hunters.
- Focus on bedding, scrapes, and habitat edges.
- Public land calls for adaptable, confident strategy.
- Enjoy the process—meat or antlers, it’s all part of the reward.
