On this episode of The Wisconsin Sportsman, Pierce is joined by Cam Maderski & Jacob Sklenar to hear the epic story of how Cam punched the tag on his first public land giant! Pierce recounts the lessons learned from his unsuccessful hunt after putting a bad shot on a nice buck, and then the guys dive into everything leading up to Cam's success. Cam & Jacob highlight the their friendship over the years, the importance of learning from one another, the scouting that preceded Cam's buck, building relationships and sharing knowledge with other hunters you cross paths with, the importance of keeping your head up and pushing forward after a mistake, how painful dragging a deer out of a marsh can be, the importance of great hunting buddies, and celebrating one another's successes. If you like big jumps between the highs and lows of deer hunting, this episode is for you!

On this episode of the Wisconsin Sportsman, Pierce is joined by the one and only Dave McChesney for a mid-season catchup and discussion around what they've learned this season since making the switch from hunting out of saddles to stands. The guys cover a wide range of topics including the stress and pressure that can sometimes come along with hunting, the weird and wild story of Dave's successful Michigan hunt, gripes and accolades of saddle hunting and treestand hunting, which gear they feel makes them the most efficient in the woods, how they deploy a hybrid style of hunting to maximize every tree they hang in, the dangers of bow-hangers, which gloves they like the most, how to nap in a saddle, which setup is easiest to pee out of, plans for the upcoming weeks, and lots more!
