Busch Ice, Burning Wildfires & The Science of Holding Deer

Casey checks in live from the heart of Canada’s waterfowl capital, where wildfires burn and millions of ducks fill the prairie potholes. Casey’s at a family wedding near Manitou Beach’s salty float zone while Chris breaks down what it means to hold deer through fall with smart feed and habitat management. Plus, a deep dive on how supplemental feed affects deer digestion and population—this is survival strategy turned science. Then, we look ahead to the upcoming Dropped season prep, including a partnership that’s taking our body-testing to a whole new level with nutrition science and real backcountry stress. It’s all grit, guts, and the hard-earned truth about what it takes to stay sharp on the edge.
