Full description and what we offer
Mountain Deer isn't a gear shop or a typical outfitter. It's a hunting education platform built by serious deer hunters who've spent decades in Vermont woods learning what actually separates successful hunters from the rest.
The core of Mountain Deer is the podcast—Episode 62: My Beginner Bow Hunting Mistakes and the Day I Became a Hunter, Episode 64: The Castle Buck, Episode 65: Deer Hunters Go to Sniper Training—where host Taylor Elmer breaks down real hunts, real failures, and the mindset shifts that create consistent success.
Unlike hunting content that focuses on gear specs or luck, Mountain Deer emphasizes:
"Most hunters see sign. Good hunters read it." — Rodney Elmer
Beyond education, Mountain Deer offers professional taxidermy services. Taylor Elmer has been a working taxidermist for 35+ years—not a part-timer. This is a full-time craft that requires understanding anatomy, preservation, and the respect that comes with finishing someone's hunt properly.
Mountain Deer operates a membership program for access to deeper podcast content, educational materials, and community. The WOLF PACK is their member network.
Limited retail section for essential hunting gear—focused on items that matter, not clutter.
Mountain Deer doesn't sell you confidence. It sells you clarity.
Articles and episodes regularly examine:
Based in Vermont. Focus on whitetail deer hunting and Northeast hunting culture.
Former sniper training attendee, 35-year taxidermist, bow hunter, tracker. His perspective isn't theoretical—it's built on decades of actual hunting, failures examined honestly, and lessons integrated into practice.
