In Episode 6 of Whitetail Edge Season 10, host Ben Rising follows along with Javin Mullet and his hunting buddy Joe Burkholder on an incredible season chasing giant Ohio whitetails.
Javin sets his sights on a buck nicknamed Ironhide, a deer that kept him hunting harder and longer than ever before. Multiple close calls, rattling sequences, and ridge-top setups nearly got him a chance at the giant buck —but sometimes the smallest detail, like choosing the wrong tree, can change the outcome of a hunt.
While the pursuit of Ironhide didn’t end as planned, the season takes an exciting turn when Joe steps in and tags an incredible buck called Skywalker in a moment we will never forget. From mock scrapes to food plots, strategic setups, and perseverance, this episode delivers the raw highs and lows of whitetail bowhunting.
Watch until the end for the full recovery and celebration of Joe’s Ohio big buck, plus key lessons from the season that can help you on your own hunts.
