What would you do if somebody sent you a photo — and the exact location — of a 200-inch whitetail?On Episode 339 of the Chasing Giants Podcast, Don Higgins and Terry Peer dive back into one of the most debated subjects in hunting: the difference between what is legal and what is ethical.After last week's discussion generated more than 100 comments, Don explains why hunting ethics have to go beyond simply asking whether something is legal. That conversation leads directly back into thermal drones — including the story of a hunter who spent $10,000 on a thermal drone, used it for only a few months, and then sold it because he believed the technology crossed an ethical line.Then Don addresses controversy surrounding a recent Whitetail Master Academy clip about receiving tips on giant bucks. Don explains exactly what happens when somebody sends him information about a big deer, why most tips never make it beyond his computer, and why he has walked away from opportunities to hunt tremendous bucks when doing so would step on another hunter's toes.Don also shares an incredible story about locating a giant Nebraska buck on public land. After tracing the trail-camera photo back to the young hunter who originally captured it, Don called him directly and asked for his blessing before hunting the deer. The hunter said no — and Don walked away.Plus, Don and Terry answer listener questions covering:Why Don is cautious about river-bottom hunting propertiesWhether NutriCrave high-oil corn is difficult for deer to digestWhether shooting a cull buck can push a target buck off your propertyHow to recognize hunting content that may not tell the entire storyHow Don chooses stand locations based on windWhy sometimes the best hunting decision is simply staying homeThe episode closes with Sunday Night Prayer Time with Ty Miller and a challenge to stop merely reacting as Christians and begin intentionally viewing our lives, neighbors, challenges and priorities through God.ChaptersYouTube TagsChasing Giants, Don Higgins, Terry Peer, Chasing Giants Podcast, whitetail deer, whitetail hunting, deer hunting, mature bucks, big bucks, giant whitetails, 200 inch buck, hunting ethics, hunting controversy, thermal drones, deer recovery drones, hunting drones, trail cameras, trail camera pictures, public land bucks, hunting permission, deer hunting tips, habitat management, land management, food plots, deer behavior, river bottom hunting, deer hunting pressure, bowhunting, Kentucky deer hunting, Whitetail Master Academy, Don Higgins whitetail, Christian hunting podcastChasing Giants TV Sponsors: Real World Wildlife ProductsAsio GearChasing Giants Podcast Sponsors:Asio GearReal World Wildlife ProductsHawke OpticsNovix OutdoorsMidwest Land Group360 Hunting BlindsMike’s Mighty MicrosGingerich Tree FarmsTagOut TechniqueGrubb ImplementBrenton USAMathews ArcheryVictory GMC & Auto GroupWildlife FarmingWiseEye TechnologiesChasing Assurance Podcast Sponsors:Heartwood Planning GroupWiseEye TechnologiesCoonless FeedersGreen Prairie Seed Company© 2026 Chasing Giants Podcast.
