Ep. 101: Bowhunting Whitetails in the Appalachian Range with David Miller

On this episode of the East Meets West Hunt podcast, I’m joined by David Miller, founder of Appalachian Range and a bowhunter from the mountains of West Virginia. David has a well known track record for taking some giant mountain bucks in some unforgiving country. We talk about David's 2019 season chasing a 9.5 year old buck, lessons learned, adapting to the circumstances and figuring out these big mountain bucks. In addition, the giveaway winners are announced!
