Congratulations Brayden, with Hoffman Boots, on a stud early season buck. Here is the full story on how everything went down and how our Mule Deer Master Class helped him out,

“This buck was basically killed in July and August. All I had to do on opening day was make my shot count. The Masterclass really showed me how important scouting is when it comes to killing mature deer.

I scouted almost every Saturday and Sunday morning during July and August, getting up at 2 a.m. each time. I learned the deer patterns and figured out which drainages held the most deer, focusing on shelter, water, and food like you covered in the Masterclass.

The “avalanche chutes” held the most deer in the mornings and evenings, and that’s exactly where I ended up killing my buck. I also used the soft-bumping strategy you talked about on your podcast with Graylight Hunter to learn their escape routes. I actually bumped this buck the day I killed him, and he only went about 200 yards. I was able to sneak underneath him and kill him at 44 yards.

The Masterclass gave me a plan and helped me understand what I was looking for when I was scouting. I was able to take what I learned and actually put it to work in the field. It made a huge difference, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone serious about killing mature deer.

Great Masterclass!!! I learned a lot and used a lot!”

If you’re in the market for a solid pair of hunting boots, check out Hoffman Boots Trevor, Travis, and I have been running them for years, and we have been very impressed with them.

They’ve got a wide selection, but my go-to hunting boot is the Explorer. I wear the non-insulated version for warm, dry conditions and switch to the insulated version when the temperatures drop. The 400-gram insulation has been the sweet spot for me.

What’s your favorite boot for hiking and hunting?

This has by far been one of the busiest summers I have ever had with work. So much to get done before September. Looking forward to chasing these jungle bulls in 12ft alders 😂.

Still one of my favorite archery bulls to this day.

I pursued this bull for multiple years but could never get close enough for an ethical shot with my bow. As time went on, word got out about him, and more hunters started chasing him on public land. By 2018, it was almost impossible to hunt him without another bowhunter bumping him out of the country.

The difference between me and everyone else? I didn’t quit.

As the seasons passed, most hunters burned out and moved on. In 2019, there wasn’t another soul pursuing this bull. That’s when my opportunity finally came. I caught him off guard, slipped into range, and made a perfect shot through his vitals.

Hunts like this are what keep me coming back. They’re a reminder that persistence pays off, and sometimes the biggest reward comes after years of staying committed when everyone else has given up.

One more month, and I’ll be chasing jungle giants again.

If you’re looking to become a better elk hunter especially when it comes to finding and consistently hunting mature herd bulls, be sure to check out our SNTR Elk Hunting Master Class. Link in bio, and good luck this upcoming hunting season.

I first came across Squatch Juice earlier this spring at a hunt expo, and after trying it, I was really impressed. I’ve used a lot of hydration mixes over the years, so I feel like I know what makes a quality product.

The ingredients are simple, and it has what I need: 500 mg of sodium, 150 mg of potassium, and 20 mg of magnesium. It keeps me hydrated, helps prevent cramps, and makes a noticeable difference when I’m spending long days in the backcountry.

The bundle lets you try all the flavors: Pineapple Mango, Watermelon Strawberry Kiwi, and Lemonade. My personal favorites are Pineapple Mango and Lemonade.

If you’re looking for a solid hydration drink, give it a try and let me know what you think. When you’re hiking, hunting, or putting in long miles, you’re losing electrolytes and replacing them matters. This has become my go to. Link in bio, use code Rut to save.
