I don’t think Bill gets enough credit. The guy is literally THE reason for some of the successful hunting TH-cam channels today. He built that model, shared his knowledge and expertise with them and now they are what they are today. Without Bill, I don’t think it happens. I think Bills most recent journey is also strong evidence that just because you kill big deer, doesn’t mean you are a good hunter; it could be the property. And, the flip side to that coin is, just because you aren’t killing big deer, doesn’t mean you are a bad hunter; it could just be the property. In his case now, I think he’s a great hunter and in a tough area. Loved this one and s/o to Bill for always being so humble and kind.
the average deer hunter does not shoot a 130-inch buck, but a 130-inch buck is still considered a good buck in most parts of the country..I love bill but to say a deer hunter would ever tell a man 150 plus buck is a trash deer.. disappointed me . Then again I guess these guys rub off on him when he gets around them . I remember him saying when he was still part of Midwest whitetail that he mainly shot deer for age..bc of a lot his guys were not shooting anything over 160..season one he shot a 140” episode 20..so this just come off brash to me . I love Bill enough to overlook it . 👍🏻
Bill is just such a likable person wise in his demeanor and we soak up all his knowledge. He will always succeed it’s in his nature. When he does it will be that much more rewarding
Bill @ 32:09 am reminded why I bought 65acre hunting farm, it’s what I dreamed of as a kid bowhunting it’s worth the work; THE STEWARDSHIP! Thanks Guys!! 🦌
I don’t mind the ads you guys put In the videos but combined with TH-cam ads it’s getting pretty bad. Love your guys stuff might have to listen on a different platform to mitigate this
Prime example how easy hunting was for him on his other farms. Iowa is easy hunting compared to other places. This is iowa but its not as good of a farm so he struggles to kill like he was on his better farms
What podcast was it that in the beginning the guest introduced himself. Then started talking about orginzation that's helps people getting into hunting industry? Talked about doing stuff outwest with mule deer trying to figure it out. Need help

1 season doesn't mean anything
@ Amen.
I agree

@ May be wrong, but he was referencing southern Iowa & stated those high standards are much different elsewhere.
Bill is the best. Love listening to him talk and the knowledge that he drops. Thanks for having him on.
Been waiting on this. Bill will go down as a legend in the deer woods.
I could listen to him everyday
@@HUNTRPOD I agree. He is the best.
I never miss a Bill video. He is is one of the greatest to ever do it. Thanks guys
Keeping it real. Great podcast. Bill,s experience is priceless. We're fortunate that he shares his knowledge. He is a rare personality

Happy Thanksgiving!
I’ve got 15 acres up on top the ridge, I did a combination of switch grass & direct seeding acorns, so I get some quick cover with the long term oaks
Took my target buck yesterday, headed to corn
That time of year
6:32 perk of hunting from the ground i guess. I do just slip in to my spot and sit down every morning i go out
That’s true
Bill @ 32:09 am reminded why I bought 65acre hunting farm, it’s what I dreamed of as a kid bowhunting it’s worth the work; THE STEWARDSHIP!
Thanks Guys!! 🦌
My dad has those same 4 paintings of the bucks fighting and getting locked up that bill had in the back. Cool series of paintings.
Oh heck ya!
Goat
No doubt
Shot a 130 inch 5 yr old in northeast mi in tb zone. I believe u hunt what you got.
That’s a toad man
I don’t mind the ads you guys put In the videos but combined with TH-cam ads it’s getting pretty bad. Love your guys stuff might have to listen on a different platform to mitigate this
So we are on Apple and Spotify too, not sure how to change the ad thing
Be careful with knocking down or mowing standing corn in Illinois, I don’t know if that’s considered a standard agricultural practice.

I think you are talking about Matt Rinella
@HUNTRPOD thank you but that's not it just listened to intro was in beginning of video
Hunters commercial podcast
What’s that mean? Our commercials or TH-cam lol
I thought bill killed several does last season off that farm may be wrong though but if he did maybe he killed too many?
Ummm,,,hunt companion?
Hunt Companion!
@@HUNTRPOD thank you!
