In this episode, the dynamic duo discusses Shawn's recent success on a nice 10 point taken on his new property in Virginia. Starting from scratch on a new property has its challenges (check out Episode 19: Ground Zero) but thanks to boots on the ground and game cameras, it didn't take Shawn long to find a bachelor group with at least 2 wall hangers! Big 10 was a regular from June until hunting season started and. of course, the pattern changed. A cat and mouse game ensued with Shawn finally encountering him during the muzzle loader season! It was an exciting hunt with an exciting ending!
