Ducks and Geese are truly one of the most unique natural resources that we as sportsmen and women have to enjoy, and that is because they are truly a shared resource. Migrating throughout the country, in an impressive fashion, and finding a way to live rent free in many of our heads, it's no secret that waterfowl hunting, waterfowl management, and the future of both is something that we care deeply about. Houston Havens has been the waterfowl program coordinator for Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks for over a decade. In this conversation, we lean into his years of experience to better understand season structuring, bag limits, waterfowl food preferences, land management for waterfowl and more. Check it out!

So, before we dive into this one, lets set the stage. In the aftermath of the chaotic year of 2020, We started to see a lot of residual impacts and new buzz words coming out  regenerative farming  sustainable agriculture  factory farming is bad. orgranic grown is the way to go. What does cage free even mean? we also saw a revived movement in supporting local farms and businesses.    Here’s the thing, I know enough to know that these topics are important- land conservation and soil and water quality, not to mention the foods that most of us consume. I know everyone on this podcast are fans of wildgame, myself included, but I also know virtually none of live off of nothing but wild game 24/7, and not to mention that regenerative term is starting get thrown around in wildlife management circles as well   So the real question is, is the hype is real?- I’m no farmer, I’ve never raised livestock so in efforts for all of us to get to the bottom of this I’ve called in subject experts- To my surprise, in doing researc

We also discuss a new project for Jordan in the habitat segment, a 200-inch deer killed in Mississippi in an unorthodox and comical manor, a 101-year-old man killing a buck, and the continuing controversy surrounding the upcoming vote on mountain lion hunting in Colorado.

We are one week into October. The weather has been warm, the rain has been scarce, and the deer reports have been few. However, we have been making the most of our time between finishing up food plot projects, staying sharp on archery, making plans for an unorthodox deer hunt, and more. We also check in with Jordan for the weekly habitat segment, as well as the upcoming Consumed videos. We round it out with a wild wolf story from Wisconsin, and new segment about wild game cooking.    For more about Consumed Hunting videos:  https://youtube.com/@consumedhunting?si=EE3_5EQzmZmi4-Ry    To Find out more about the Land we talked about in this episode:  https://openseasonproperties.com/property_category/land/

In the first part of this episode, you'll be treated to a recording of us doing a little "in-the-field experimentation" as we shoot a an arrow at an elk scapula to see what kind of penetration we get with an very popular expandable broad head. The results may surprise you. We also discuss the most recent elk trip, Jordan's update from the Arkansas waterfowl project, plans for the deer season, this past weekend's public field day at Leaf River WMA, and the positive responses to the Dig Deep Episodes.     

Mississippi is presently known for being an extremely high deer density state. In fact, it has one of the highest deer densities in the entire United States. However, have you ever stopped to think if it has always been that way? You might be surprised to know that not too long ago, whitetail deer were almost completely wiped out of the state, and the sole reason they succeed today is because of very intentional conservation efforts. In this episode, we talk with MS deer program coordinator William McKinley about the history of deer here in Mississippi.  #DigDeep    Request a DMAP site visit here: https://www.mdwfp.com/dmap
