Welcome to the WHTL Podcast, your source for Whitetail Deer Hunting Tactics, Stories & Expert Guests. In this episode, we're back in the studio with Brandon Barlow of The 70 Rule. We Discuss: Up to 80% of daytime deer behavior repeats in the same areas year to year. Cameras over corn and field edges produce deer photos, not repeatable data. Browse damage at nipple height marks the bedding mature bucks actually live in. Mature bucks catch REM sleep in bomb-shelter cover with no vantage point. Deep sleep runs 20 to 45 minutes a day regardless of the season. A buck's range shrinks with age until he burns into one small daytime spot. Fawn spot fade and drop dates back-calculate your property's real rut timing. Buck bedding is most consistent in early October and unravels in the full rut. Fewer than half of your daylight bucks come back the following season. Moon phase has zero measurable impact on daylight deer movement. And So Much More! Want to become a better whitetail hunter?
