Description

Heading out to Pennsylvania. And I’m happy I caught Preston Mullens before he took off for Ontario to take about Deer Hunting as a DIY Hunter. He and his crew and the family, they’re going to go up walleye fishing and they’re going to just slay walleyes. They’re going to have a blast. I’m kind of jealous, actually.

But Preston Mullens is a doctor of chiropractic medicine in Pennsylvania, but more so than anything he’s just a crazy DIY hunter and he’s just a joy to have on the show and we’re going to have fun in the next 45 minutes or so. So, Preston, welcome to the show.

Deer Hunting – DIY Hunter – Preston Mullens
Hey, thanks, I appreciate it. I’m glad we got this technology thing figured out. My schedule sort of jumps around a little bit, but it kind of worked in our favor that I’m a night owl and I’m two hours ahead of you, so it sort of fell into your schedule a little bit better.

Right. And today, you know, was a huge day. I started at 8:00 this morning and now it’s 7:29. So if people think this podcasting stuff is easy, I’m just laughing instead of crying I think. But, anyway, let’s kick this off. You’ve got a couple of nice bucks behind you. And take your phone and put it where that second main beam came off, and it snapped off after you got the trail camera picture of it.

Okay, so…

Tell us the story.

…he has another main beam, I think you can see it right here. And this main beam actually crept out to about this far on the front. And he had it on trail cam pictures and lost it. And in the same year that I took… This is a Pennsylvania buck, he’s just a solid, nice…just a mainframe eight. And in the same year, seven days later, I had this guy with two double-hook brows hard. And he had his brow at 12:30 the day before and I shot at 9:30 the next day and it was gone. So in seven days I managed to lose a brow tine and a third inside beam off two bucks in seven days. So that was tough, but, hey, that’s deer hunting, I guess, right? It was rut, they were probably out busting things up and I guess it cost me. But I have the pictures of them, so it’s better than nothing, I guess, right?

Well, yeah. Now once…the solid eight was in Pennsylvania, and where was the crooked brow tine?
