Archery season is well underway here in the southeast - particularly in Georgia. It's still 95 degrees and 100 percent humidity which really makes us question why we do this even if it allows us to get into the woods more than 30 days before rifle season.

In this episode Carter & Cole talk about the first weekend hunt here in Georgia. The heat and sweat really has them re-considering getting out into the woods this early. The boys also talk about what they accomplished with their food plots in preparation for the fall. Planting food plots are not for the weary - Especially when you don't have the right equipment and require a bit more manual labor.

The Pastrami Boys are so back and here for part II of the land management discussion. This episode is a continuation of EP 281 where we are talking about food plots, soil testing, and long term land management goals.

Too many hunters plant seeds based on the looks - this is not the right thing to do. To have a successful food plot you need to take soil samples, work with biologists, and buy the right seed that will not only thrive in your environment, but food that your deer will eat. Find a local feed store that you can work with and talk to the folks who have been hunting that area for some time.

Test different seed companies - See what works for your land, environment, and location. Different seeds thrive in different areas and pick your seeds based on what your goal is for that particular food plot.

Shoutout to Oglethorpe Feed and Supply Store - nicest folks that we have worked with and super patient with our dumb questions and inability to make a decision on what to buy.

Welcome back to another episode of the Hunt Lift Eat podcast! We have the Pastrami Boys taking over the podcast today and you might be asking yourself, "Who the F*c* are the Pastrami Boys?". They are a group of guys who are part of a hunt club in East Georgia and all long time members of the Hunt Lift Eat Team.

This week the boys are covering a slew of topics in this several part series. Now having private land, the boys are learning how to manage the land with a particular emphasis on food plots, whitetail management, and slaying all the pigs that are invading the land.

Welcome back to another episode of the Hunt Lift Eat podcast. We cannot believe that folks are getting back into the woods out west and we are on the cusp here in the SouthEast.

The time is now and we are talking about our plans approaching the new season, how we are going to process the meat, what critters are we chasing, food plots, and so much more.

Welcome back everybody to another episode of the Hunt Lift Eat Podcast where we've recently been doing a ton more hunting and lifting than we have eating.

The new hunting season is back and we are so dang stoked - although, hunting this early feels a bit naughty like we are doing something illegal. Folks out west are already chasing elk and antelope and us east coast folks couldn't be more jealous. We at HLE are putting the finishing touches on our bows, ensuring our rifles are sighted in, and finishing the ankle biter tasks that we have been avoiding.

Live from the great city Laramie in the great state of Wyoming, Luke and Keiffer are running the hot mics on today's episode. There are two types of people in the way they prepare for their upcoming seasons: Those who shoot by the hip and those who plan everything out + layout all their gear for inspection. Which one are you?

Both Luke and Keiffer talk about their methodologies and approaches to new season based on what and where they are hunting. Naturally this is normal based on what species of animal you are hunting, where you are hunting, length of the hunt, and what does base camp look like for you. Each person and their hunt is unique and we alter our approach based on what it is we are doing.

Welcome back to another episode of the Hunt Lift Eat podcast. We are back with our ever-loving podcast host Carter and our esteemed guests Will Boone and Forest Chap.

This is our monthly re-occurring series where we at Hunt Lift Eat reach out to some of loyal listeners and team members to join us with absolutely no agenda and just have a conversation.

Welcome back to another episode of the Hunt Lift Eat podcast, sponsored by good times and good vibes.

This week we have Josh Reed and Avery Whitehead on the podcast talking about Elk - Specifically Elk in Kentucky which conservationist have been working towards for many decades since the decimation of the species from over hunting. Since Carter is such a history nerd, of course the boys talk about the history of Elk. When we think of Elk we typically think of hunting Elk in Colorado, Montana, Wyoming, etcetera but all Western states. Elk are just as much as an East coast animal as it is a West Coast animal.

Josh Reed has been successful in his Elk hunts in Kentucky and is dedicated in being just as good a hunter as Daniel Boone. Avery Whitehead recently drew a Kentucky Elk is looking to fill that tag here shortly in the latter part of 2026.
