Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode #1076: Jon Deeter
Q: Jon, how did you approach cataloging and presenting such a complex collection to buyers around the world?
We x-ray every decoy, verify paint, provenance, and ownership history, and write up detailed histories to give buyers confidence; we also guarantee catalog descriptions and stand by our assessments.
Public Land - Colorado - Trenton Forbes
Q: Do you have to deal with out-of-state hunters in Colorado?
Yes, but on the public land side it's mostly locals and in-state residents; the density and access vary by area, with some spots seeing more out-of-state traffic than others depending on proximity to large cities and drive times.
Public Land - New Jersey - Brian Paulus
Q: How does access to state fields work in New Jersey?
Access is largely based on showing up early and respecting field ownership, with a lottery-based blind site system only at Tucker Wildlife Management Area; elsewhere, hunters rely on a “first come, first served” approach and cooperation or confrontation over limited fields.
Episode #1073: Dr. Mike Brasher
Q: When did the game-farm mallard releases begin to have a lasting impact, and how did that evolve into a commercial operation?
The practice began earlier than many think, with licensed releases and some states investing in boosting populations, but it exploded notably in the 1990s as outfitters sought to preserve hunting opportunities after goose seasons changed, leading to widespread mallard releases and commercial operations.
Public Land - Michigan - Paul Hinman
Q: What are the biggest challenges when hunting flooded corn areas on public land?
Hunters deal with intense crowding, the need to coordinate decoy placement, and the constant strategic chess game with neighboring hunters, as well as the seasonal shifts that affect bird movement and wind patterns.
