Son of a Blitch Podcast, Ep. 83 - The Story of the Melanistic White-tailed buck named "Black Beauty"
At the center of this story is "Black Beauty", a melanistic white-tailed deer, whose rare appearance on the Blitch family ranch came during a profound transformation in our approach and practices of wildgame and land management.
Melanism, a genetic trait causing an excess of melanin and resulting in dark coloration, is particularly prevalent in certain Texas counties, though this was the Blitch family's first interaction with a melanistic animal.
George recounts the shift from cattle ranching to wildlife stewardship, a decision that reshaped the family's ancestral lands. After inheriting the ranch, George and his wife, Meg, collaborated with local biologists to enhance habitats for native species like deer and turkey. This transition was not merely a change in operations but a deep-seated commitment to preserving the rich biodiversity that defines their region. Their efforts were driven by a desire to honor the land and its history, ensuring that future generations could experience its natural splendor.
The episode delves into the discovery and the exhilarating hunt for Black Beauty, blending instinct with uncertainty, culminating on Veterans Day-a poignant connection to George's grandfather's legacy on the family ranch. This encounter not only highlighted the importance of wildlife management but also underscored the family's commitment to sustainable land stewardship and family traditions.
Throughout the podcast, emphasis is placed on the importance of community involvement in conservation efforts. By working with local wildlife biologists and participating in programs like the NRCS's EQIP, we implemented strategies to improve habitat quality. This collaboration illustrates how landowners can partner with experts to achieve conservation goals, benefiting both wildlife and the environment. The Blitch family's story serves as an inspiring example of how individuals can make a meaningful impact on biodiversity through informed and responsible land management practices.
In conclusion, "Black Beauty" is more than a story about the hunt of an extremely rare deer; it is a heartfelt tribute to family heritage, the beauty of nature, and the enduring impact of conservation. George Blitch invites listeners to reflect on their own relationship with the natural world, encouraging a deeper appreciation for the wonders that surround us. Whether you are a seasoned hunter or a wildlife enthusiast, this episode offers valuable insights into the significance of preserving our natural heritage and the joys of stewarding the land for generations to come.

This copperhead was hanging out in our barn, where we frequently work on our tractors and other farm equipment. We used some snake tongs to move him away from the barn. this video shows the snake biting at the tongs. I slowed it down so you can see how fast they strike!

That’s a squirrel 🐿️
You might be right! I was told rabbit, but now that I zoom in and look closer on the computer, instead of my phone...
2024 and, in addition to dead-on performance, still sounds fresh vs modern software d&b. And to think Jason said/noted that synth's sequencer was garbage, and yet still program Way Out West level effects and ghost drum fills like that
That is sick you kill animals to stuff them bad karma for you. 😮😮😮😮😮
Bro what, that bobcat prob died naturally
Do you get mule deer around there?
@itsRobertsJourney - not in this area, unfortunately.
I just posted a short of an awesome bison stampede from a few years ago! I love these beasts!
ITS COMING STRAIGHT FOR US!!!
What are that type of turkeys called????
@@guillermoruiz7510 Rio Grande
Today I was in my backyard and I felt something big land on my hair and without thinking I threw it on the ground. The poor frog is injured but I am currently trying to nurse it back to health . I feel so bad but fingers crossed it recovers!
seems real to me. I'm a believer 🤣
All you hear is a click and a ping. Very nice.
Does it come with a muzzle brake?
This one did not, but I highly suggest the Seekins Precision ATC Muzzle Break. Just added it on this rifle last week.
itsa funky dude
Must have cost a fortune!!
Right! I wonder what the cost is on one of these! It be amazing to have a room big enough for it, let alone the money.
Hay man, really enjoyed this. I didn't know you had a youtube channel just subscribed .
@@peterupdikeswildtreasures4055 thank you, sir! Much appreciated!
What is the device called

Looks good brother keep up the good work
Seems a silver argiope.
Kinda looks like a blue tongued lizard but i didnt see its tounge so im unsure
Oh man that's a real treat, that golden orb weavers gunna be your natural pest control long as you let her.
Smkdm😮ma😢😮😂❤
George, you are on my list! It may be a while, but as soon as the finances allow for it and I can talk my wife into it- I'll be all over this awesome tool for a better holistic hunting experience. Great product offering!
Indigo are so cool.
It’s funny how they can tell there’s no hunting pressure now. But the second you’d start trying to be quiet and hidden-all bets are off!
Like it’s glitching frames
¿Una variedaf de cerdos?
Brown anole, they're an introduced species but we have native green anoles as well
Anol You can tell by the flap of skin underneath their neck
It’s a cicada budy😂
Have read and recommended Brad Thor books to many people before. Great to see Brad here exploring his main character, Scot Harvath, and George does a great job of pulling different elements from Brad to develop his books. Great listen! Keep it up Geo!!
End days bro
Striped 🐍
Well is it poisonous?
non-venemous. Harmless water snake
Diamond Back water snake
What are those plants called? I would love to attract them naturally!
@@DavidRutherford-yg1ki this is a Firebush… Hamelia patens is a large evergreen perennial shrub or small tree in the family Rubiaceae, that is native to the American subtropics and tropics. Its range extends from Florida in the southern United States to as far south as Argentina. Common names include firebush, hummingbird bush, scarlet bush, and redhead. Other common ones are the Firecracker plant, but I bet your local NRCS agent or local wildgame biologist could tell you the best natives for your area, if you want to go that route.
We use quickrete for our ranch but also hiring someone to do it works
Gosh man, that would be a terrifying event to experience.
Cute, fluffy, and nutty 🐿️
Damn not one positive comment 😂 the people have spoken, I guess
Have ya ever heard of a "heapin' helpin'" well enjoy. 💩
Not likely
Matty is one of the nicest guys I know. I still have a flag he made me hanging above my y fireplace. He gave it to me probably 10 years or more ago.
Shoot...that ain't nothin'...we got them spittin' rattleheaded copper moccasins here in Indiana .😅😂
Nice bro !! 😂
Хижина чудес...

Ok haha very funny, my gullible ass almost fell for it, but in my defense I was thinking about that one kind of snapping turtle
His natural enemy is cornholio and he has a PP for his bunghole
😂😂😂😂
