In this episode I sit down with Matt Thielking, a hard working common man like you and I that over the past few years has been managing his small piece of land. Over that time he's learned through failures, successes and most recently through some key changes he did a little over a year ago; which have already illustrated to be successful.  Link to the video and his channel discussed in podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-i68aCF98o Aerial not needed to be added as the video above shares it.

Seeing Success Through Changes - Interview With Matt Thielking (SAH 25)

Little check in episode where I discuss our plans for the coming weekend, go over some seed purchases (without discount), encourage everyone to make the hunting community a better place and finally provide the audio version of The Potential Is There. The Potential Is There is a write up I did for Real World Wildlife Products and pray it stirs up thoughts in your head and reflection as well. Thanks for swinging by!

The Potential Is There (SAH 24)

Today I take a quick "detour" like trip conveying how fatherhood or Father's Day is something we can learn a decent amount on our hunting/land managing journeys. Little different spin, but I promise it will most likely make sense.

Father's Day & What It Can Teach Us As Hunters (SAH 23)

Let's chat on this episode about three things most landowners struggle with accepting they must control if they want to fully commit to success when it comes to a property conducive for daytime deer movement/use.

Three Things You MUST CONTROL To See Your Deer Habitat Succeed (SAH 23)

This episode is an in depth discussion with just a normal guy that dove head first into soil health about 18 months ago. We discuss his journey, no till operations, the life beneath our feet and how when everything is working together it is possible to eliminate fertilizer needs even!

All Things Soil With Al Tomechko (SAH 22)

What a treat it was to sit down for nearly an hour and a half and chat whitetails with Jake Ehlinger. It is a blessing we will without question be having a follow up episode focusing more so on how to go about hunting a property once the habitat plan is falling into place. This episode however we touch on everything habitat and dabble in on an in depth scent discussion as well. Trust me a notepad and pen could be a good thing to have handy. Be sure to share every where you can for others to hear!

Sitting Down With Jake Ehlinger (SAH 21)

In this episode we breakdown in a bit more detail some of the work ahead of Pops and I at The22 property; including a few of the trees I have coming for this year. This discussions leads right into perhaps one question many folks want to avoid, but I feel we all need to honestly answer, "Are you growing timber or deer?" I also share the news about Patreon and how everything is revamping at Small Acre Hunting - and I need your support if it is going to stay active and create content consistently.

Are you growing timber or deer? (SAH 20)

IT HAS BEEN FAR TOO LONG! In this episode I touch on some of the reasons I've been away and hint at some changes on the horizon. However, we then slip into perhaps one of the most poignant writings I've shared in quite sometime - sit back and listen to the audio version of "Perspective in the Chaos".  God bless and THANK YOU to each and every one of you.

Perspective in the Chaos...and other news (SAH19)

In this episode we discuss just how unprepared I feel heading into the season, real life reflections BUT we also discuss why above all that I am very excited for a promising fall season!!!

Unprepared With the New Normal (SAH18)

Short on time and guests schedules didn't allow...so let's chat quickly about my current situation, and also my 3 main food plot plans for the fall which rarely if ever change.

What I'm Doing Now & Food Plot Plans (SAH17)

I'm going to delve into a concept which may seem odd coming from someone whom has consulted on numerous properties....but there is a pivotal piece most consultants don't want to discuss, ignore or downplay that above all else must be in place for success to occur. Let's discuss it.

Making a Habitat Plan Part IV - What Consultants Don't Want You To Know (SAH16)

After quite a hiatus thanks to moving houses, I finally get a podcast scraped together. More to come soon!

A Check In - (SAH15)

Let's finally delve into the discussion of the property itself habitat wise. I paint a picture of a hypothetical property and on this episode we focus primarily on cover. I touch on the basics or overview of where and why I may direct habitat improvements with cover/bedding in mind. ** Also I mention a way you can help me in the development of a new concept call the Small Acre Hunting - Attack Plan...be sure to listen up!

Making a Habitat Plan Part III - Delving Into Decisions

So we have written down the goal of the property. We surveyed the SURROUNDING area of the property to see what strengths and weaknesses exist OFF the property....now we turn to the decisions ON the property. FIRST though...we must have the discussion over the most CRITICAL thing we have to make our property the BEST at: SECURITY.

Making a Habitat Plan Part II - Without This NOTHING Else Matters (SAH13)

Let's delve head first into a multi-part discussion where I attempt to convey thoughts on approaching and tackling a habitat plan for those that have no idea where to begin, OR are fed up with what they've been doing and want to restart from scratch. This episode centers around the two first questions everyone should consider and answer.

Making a Habitat Plan Part I - The First Two Questions (SAH12)

A whitetail deer podcast built around the Small Acre Hunting motto of "Doing big things, on a small scale!" The podcast will deliver up to the minute updates on Ty's hunting seasons, tips, advice and guest interviews with some of the most knowledgeable hunters, habitat minds and wildlife biologists Ty connects with.
