On this episode of The Wisconsin Sportsman, Pierce is joined by 'ol steady, Jacob Sklenar to dive into the art of accessing properties to keep deer guessing! The guys discuss their unusual starts to the 2025 season, Jacob's plans to help get his wife her first deer, how to use common access trails to your advantage, ways deer adapt to hunter pressure, the true strength of a deer's nose, the importance of reading tracks, new content coming out on Jacob's YouTube channel, and the power of strategic randomness. All that and more in this week's episode!
