Episode Notes

Most of you are probably familiar with Jared Scheffler from Whitetail Adrenaline, creator of the most action packed deer hunting videos ever, but today he joins us to talk all things elk hunting. Although whitetails are his primary gig, Jared is a master when it comes to figuring out animals and making aggressive moves to have success on pressured elk.

Jared walks us through how he got started with elk hunting in 2015 and his progression from beginner to seasoned pro in just a short period of time. He also tells us how he selects areas to hunt and why he doesn't do any sort of pre-scouting before getting to a location. He then dives into certain scenarios of knowing when to give up on an area, when to move to a different location altogether and how to dissect pieces of land to increase the odds of killing elk. We also discuss tips for finding elk in public land OTC units and the strategies he uses to find those parcels that many people overlook for various reasons.

Jared and his crew at Whitetail Adrenaline have produced some badass elk videos the past few years in conjunction with their whitetail DVD’s. To find out more information and to view their content, please visit www.whitetailadrenaline.com.
