This episode dives deep into the 70 Rule with Brandon Barlow, breaking down how fawning data can reveal the right time to hunt your specific property instead of relying on broad rut forecasts. If you’ve ever wished you could stop guessing and start timing your hunts with more confidence, this conversation shows how close observation, historical data, and a smarter approach to deer behavior can tighten your window and increase your odds.
Chris and Brandon also share real-world examples from the field, including how early-season patterns, fawn development, and site-specific breeding windows can completely change the way you think about hunting pressure, access, and strategy. It’s a laid-back but highly practical conversation packed with insight for hunters who want to make every sit count.
