38 bucks with inside spreads measuring 38 inches or more in a single season. That is what Tajada Whitetails in Texas produced this past year, and it is the kind of number that gets the attention of serious breeders across the country.

Owner George Tunal has built his program on Gunslinger genetics, long known for massive frames, long tines, and wide spreads. Two young sires, Bad Bart and Six Shooter, are already making waves as the next generation of standout deer from this operation. Tajada also focuses on pasture-release deer, breeding animals specifically designed to elevate the genetic quality of ranch populations statewide.

Keith Warren features the full story in the latest episode of Deer and Wildlife Stories.

For more than 25 years, Hank and Shauna Corbell have been doing something most thought was impossible. At CC Bar Whitetails in northeast Texas, they built an entire herd of whitetail deer with proven genetic resistance to Chronic Wasting Disease through disciplined breeding, selective genetics, and an unwavering commitment to long-term herd health.

The newest episode of Deer and Wildlife Stories takes you inside this remarkable operation, and it is well worth watching.

Keith Warren and Johnny Piazza are back in Texas, and this time they brought some first-timers along for the ride. In the latest episode of The High Road, Johnny takes on the mission of getting Olivia her very first hogs using thermal optics, while Keith works to get Eric into position to take one with a pistol. Spoiler: things get western.

It is a great episode that shows what hunting is all about, introducing new people to the outdoors and sharing the experience. Watch the full episode here:

Red deer are among the most historically significant cervid species in farming, with documented husbandry practices dating back to the first century B.C. in France, Persia, and Rome. Today, red deer farmers across North America are in the middle of one of the busiest times of the year, as hinds begin calving from early May through summer, with lactational demands peaking right alongside the most abundant forage of the season.

Red deer are disease and stress-resistant, efficient converters of pasture to protein, and mature stags can maintain a conception rate of 90 percent or better well into their teens. A fascinating species with a long history and a dedicated farming community behind it.

The newest episode of Deer and Wildlife Stories takes Keith Warren to Book Whitetails in Sugarloaf, Pennsylvania, where a state-mandated quarantine has shut down operations and left deer farmers and hunters with serious questions about how Pennsylvania is managing its response to Chronic Wasting Disease.

Through firsthand interviews with Stacey Fry and other local producers, this episode takes a hard look at whether the Pennsylvania CWD Interagency Task Force is actually preventing the spread of the disease or doing more harm than good to the communities it is supposed to protect. It is an important conversation for the entire industry.

If you are around deer right now, you are witnessing one of the most remarkable biological events in the animal kingdom. Whitetail bucks are currently in peak velvet growth, with mature bucks putting on as much as one and a half inches of antler per week, making antlers one of the fastest-growing tissues of any mammal on earth.

That velvet is a highly vascular network actively delivering calcium, phosphorus, and protein directly to the developing bone beneath. For deer farmers and breeders, this window is a critical reminder of just how directly nutrition and genetics influence the final product come fall.
