Ep. 1039: Back 40 - Four Whitetail Land Mistakes To Avoid At All Costs
About this episode
When it comes to managing land for whitetails, there’s no shortage of advice on what you should be doing. But sometimes the fastest way to improve your property is knowing what mistakes to avoid in the first place. In this episode of Back 40, we asked a fresh panel of experienced deer hunters and land managers one simple question: What are the biggest whitetail land mistakes people make? The answers cover everything from access and pressure to habitat work, expectations, and long-term planning. Whether you own 10 acres or 1,000, avoiding the wrong moves can save you years of frustration and put you on a much faster path toward building better deer habitat and more consistent hunting success. This episode features: Wes Delks, Steve Hanson, Jake Ehllinger, and Sam Billhorn.
