Chris Kreiner- First Cat Success

Overdrive Outdoors Podcast

This week, Josh and Kevin are joined by returning guest, Chris Kreiner. Chris was recently successful on his very first Michigan bobcat after a few years of trying, having some screw ups, and ultimately keeping at it and getting it done. The guys talk about how the predator season has been so far for them, and we discuss a little about the "easiest" states we have called in. They talk about their favorite times of the year to call, and how this season so far has seemed unusually slow. Chris breaks down his deer season and tells the story of the November day he got 2 bucks with his bow. We talk about the deer activity in the area, and what kind of deer make Chris want to draw his bow. They break off a little bit and talk about reloading, which both Kevin and Chris enjoy. Josh learns a little more about "MOA" and "MIL" and how they are used in the field. Chris then breaks down his last few years of Michigan bobcat hunting, calling some in, helping a few others get their first cats, but never being able to get it done on his first. He talks about what type of terrain he is looking for, and then using aerial scouting as well as putting his boots on the ground to go find a bobcat. Kevin and Chris both have similar things they look for, so if you are looking for bobcat scouting tips, this one is for you. Chris tells us about mistakes he has made and how they have affected his hunts. They talk about calibers and loads they prefer, and the fur damage that specific loads may cause. Congratulations again Chris! Be sure to check out Dusk to Dawn Outdoors for the photos and video of his hunt, and as always, THANK YOU ALL FOR LISTENING!
