EP. 415: Relentless Pursuit | From Scrapes To Success | Cody Readinger
In this episode of Truth From The Stand, I sit down with Cody Redinger to dive into the gritty details of hunting specific bucks and the lessons that come with it. We kick things off by talking about the mental and physical challenges of dedicating years to tracking a single deer—a journey full of highs, lows, and everything in between. Cody shares the story of a buck that’s been in his crosshairs for seasons, breaking down what it takes to stay committed and adaptable when plans inevitably fall apart.
We explore the value of scrapes as key signposts, how environmental shifts can completely upend deer patterns, and why observation in the field can be just as important as pulling the trigger. Cody’s take on scouting with trail cameras reveals how he uses data to build a picture of a buck’s habits, movement, and personality. Along the way, we reflect on the emotional weight of chasing a specific animal—the thrill, the frustration, and the lessons that shape us as hunters.
This conversation isn’t just about tactics; it’s about the grit and dedication required to match wits with a mature buck and what those moments in the woods teach us about hunting and ourselves.
