Let’s spend a minute or two sharing why Whitetail Rendezvous was created. I retired about four years ago and began spending more and more days hunting whitetails. Quickly I realized that while there were some good whitetail focused podcasts out there I just was not getting the info I wanted. And so it began: I learn about producing value-based content consistently for those passionate about Whitetails. I knew that if I gathered focused information, useful strategies, new techniques and ideas on how it’s done right, then so would thousands of others.

The work really began when my good friend, Bob Roark said he was interested in the project and wanted to help bring it to life. Phew, was I glad about that for hundreds of reasons. He helped me develop the foundation of Whitetail Rendezvous. From an idea the project morphed into a passion to a build whitetail community that shares “great stuff” with guys & gals just like you!

Quite plainly, as hunters, it’s what we live for. Hunting magazines dedicate entire issues to it, the Outdoor Channel runs nonstop footage of it, and social media is swarmed with it. It’s the time when we feel good about every hunt and every hour we are on stand. The Rut is a deer hunter’s cocaine, when we’re not hunting it, we’re consuming it, discussing it, daydreaming of it, and waiting for it.

So we went up there to the Leaf River Lodge. It’s the farthest north that you can get pretty much in Quebec. Remi, our guide, really helped us about a lot too. Without him, we would have never gotten the experience that we got, with the black bear and caribou.
