The Art, Skill, and Joy of Traditional Archery With Ron Rohrbaugh
Traditional archery seems to be growing in popularity as more and more hunters yearn for stepping back in time and pursuing deer in much the same way our ancestors once did. Like most new pursuits though, getting started can seem daunting, and initial bad experiences can lead to giving up prematurely.
On this episode of Deer Season 365, wildlife biologist, author, and lifelong conservationist Ron Rohrbaugh joins NDA’s Nick Pinizzotto to talk about his personal traditional archery journey. He shares stories about his first hunts as a trad hunter and offers some excellent advice for people considering taking the plunge into the world of hunting with longbows and recurves.
Also discussed is the amazing camaraderie among trad hunters and how the community is always willing to lend a hand to newcomers. Ron also shares information about where to find his award-winning books and informative and entertaining videos on his YouTube channel.

Extreme Scent Control With Jake Ehlinger
When you ask most hunters who have successfully gotten close to mature deer what their number one priority is when heading to the woods, they’ll tell you scent control and hunting in the right wind conditions. You could be hunting the best spot in the country with mature bucks everywhere, but if you don’t control your scent, it won’t matter. A whitetail’s nose is its primary line of defense, so if you’re serious about consistently achieving positive results, managing scent control should be your top priority.
To help deliver that point, Jake Ehlinger of Habitat Solutions 360 joins Nick and The Doctor to talk about his extreme scent control routine and how it can be modified to fit your personal hunting situation. Jake is a well-known, successful mature buck hunter who brings a wealth of expertise in many areas, ranging from hunting whitetails to managing their habitat. As we head into hunting seasons across the country, this is the perfect time to hear this conversation.
