In Chasing November Season 2, Episode 6, the crew faces one of their most exciting and unpredictable hunts yet—featuring a “Monster Standoff” and a successful public land hunt. The episode follows the team as they navigate the challenges of hunting on public land, where hunters must work harder to outsmart mature whitetail bucks in an area that is constantly under pressure from other hunters. With limited access to private land, the crew relies on their skill and perseverance to secure a big buck.
The episode kicks off with the crew gearing up for a classic “hang and hunt” strategy, where they set up stands in prime locations based on scouting and trail camera data. Public land can be a tricky place to hunt, especially with the pressure that comes from other hunters and constant human activity. Despite these challenges, the crew has learned to adapt and focus on what makes the land unique—understanding the deer patterns and locating those key spots that others overlook.
As the hunt begins, things take an unexpected turn when a massive, mature buck is spotted on the move. The crew immediately realizes that this could be the opportunity of a lifetime, but with so many eyes in the woods, they must remain cautious and patient. What follows is a thrilling “Monster Standoff” where the hunter and the buck come face-to-face in a tense, stand-off situation. The buck moves slowly, cautiously aware of its surroundings, making the perfect shot an elusive target. The crew holds their breath as the tension builds in the woods.
After a few nerve-wracking moments, the buck finally moves into the perfect range. With the shot lined up, the hunter carefully takes aim and releases the arrow. The shot is clean, and the massive buck takes off in a sprint, leaving the crew to wait and track it down. The excitement intensifies as the crew follows the trail, and after a short search, they find the buck—a true trophy for any hunter.

The episode captures the essence of hunting on public land—tough, unpredictable, and filled with challenges. From the hang and hunt strategy to the monster buck encounter, the episode showcases the crew’s adaptability and skill. The successful hunt is a culmination of months of scouting, patience, and hard work, proving that even on public land, success is possible for those who put in the effort.
Chasing November Season 2, Episode 6 highlights the raw excitement of hunting, where every moment counts and the thrill of the hunt is truly unmatched. The “Monster Standoff” and the eventual triumph of the crew is a testament to their dedication and passion for whitetail hunting.
