Keystone Roots

Kicked off Spring 2026 in the prettiest place I have ever had the pleasure to hunt. Getting to chase hard gobbling turkeys at 6,000 feet on the slopes of an ancient volcano is hard to beat. I can’t even truly put into words how thankful I am to be able to do what I love, in the most beautiful places on earth. This one will be a tough one to top. Spring is here and I couldn’t be happier🦃

Another beautiful day spent in woods. Didn’t find any sheds but it’s never really only about that. Shed hunting, scouting the past seasons deer sign and looking for turkey sign were the goals. I always go into the woods to try and learn something. I found tons of sign in areas that I won’t walk during hunting season. These are the pieces of the puzzle that really matter. Your ability to note, retain and utilize them the next season is what really matters. Come up with a system for this that works for you. It could be the difference between success or an unfilled tag.

Shed hunting, scouting and post season tune-ups. Hate to break it to you, but there are no shortcuts to consistent success.

Beyond excited to join the field staff and put some of these to the test across the East Coast and Midwest. was founded in a garage right here in Pennsylvania so it was a no brainer to join up and support each others goals. Every rope is handmade, packaged and vacuum sealed. If you haven’t tried scrape ropes or are skeptical for any reason, check out the VineLines, made using real grapefruit vines. I’ll be getting some of these rolling soon and they will be a welcomed addition to the whitetail toolbox. We are pumped to see how they can help us learn a little bit more and become better hunters next Fall.

Deer season 2025-2026✅ The greatest memories of my life. I couldn’t be more thankful for my friends, family, and the support from everyone who makes this the best time of the year. Reflecting on our mistakes and continuing to learn and improve is all apart of the game. We all need something to do get us through February and now is the best time for growth. Time to clean the guns, pack away the bow, spend time with family and friends and get ready for Spring. Cheers to 2026 for being the best year yet for all of you🍾
