I’m Infalt! I know there are other hunters and what not, but these 2 are probably the most opposites when it comes to approach. So that’s why I ask for just these 2.

If you haven’t seen it go to post #46 in this thread. It’s kind of my reason for the question. There is always a different perspective.

**********Everyone once again thanks for the responses. So now that we have gotten responses and if you looked at the post at #46 in the thread. You will realize this wasn’t really a question of hunting with one or the other but more of a way to show that we all have styles of hunting and just because you don’t like the other style doesn’t mean you can’t learn from the other styles. I had picked Infalt which is probably more my style of hunting. But it doesn’t mean you can’t learn from the opposite style “ Eberhart”. Good luck hunting this season and enjoy! Maybe we’ll all learn something new!?

I would choose to hunt with John and it's not a difficult decision at all. I dont subscribe to the scent routine like he does but our environments are entirely different. Hunting in his area the scent routine would be easier to follow. Down here, you gonna sweat thinking about which tree to go too. Wouldnt even have to hunt really just a walk and talk scouting trip would be a great learning experience.
 
Snow helps, but you don't have this right. Larry actually shot his biggest (recovered) buck on snowless ground. They do just fine without snow, and there's video to prove it. But, yeah, give them snow and they'll smoke any deer out there.
No no no ,,,I know they are way better than I might ever be lol but was just rubbing because he said specifically those two,, I still have their book
 
Ive known John since around 2007 and we would talk a few times a year.
He would give me some input and i would listen.
For some reason what he would tell me just wasn’t clicking.
I just kept doing what I was doing until I kind of discovered youtube and social media.
Back around 2014-15.
I really wanted to start getting more chances on bigger deer more consistently.
I was really getting kind of burned out with how I was doing things.
Needed a kind of fresh start.
I started rereading stuff from John and watching everything i could from Dan.
man was i brainwashed and fed some bs lol
Well after that I dont know if i just matured as a hunter more but it started to click and helped, especially John’s information.
Well in 2017 i finally decided to attend one of the workshops these two were doing in the post season.
Because of tight finances at the time I went with Infalt for 3 straight days scouting
I was going to go with John because he in my opinion was more a tell it how it is or blunt truthful kind of guy.
I like that and i dont like a whole follow me and kill this kind of marketing ploy lol.
I learned from Dan and of course no offense to him because he is a proven killer but, I do believe John is alot better at what he does and how he explains it.
The reason why I think this is John hunts states with far less p&y numbers and in John’s prime he was not hunting 7 days a week and still killed magnums.
At the time i was looking to attend a workshop John’s price tag was too much for my budget.
So I contacted Dan and he did a one on one for 1/2 the cost.
It was a blast. Ended up Me, Dan, and Jeff Geinke and Jeff’s kid.
(Jeff was Dan’s ex right hand man.)
When I was there I learned how to tweak what I was doing and it did help get more encounters on bucks but, what Dan was saying and pushing felt just off.
I couldnt put my finger on it but it just was like a huge sales pitch.
I got pretty heavy on that beast cult but it got really crazy for awhile and it got to be almost like a cult.
Especially After the Dan and John arguments and then the whole Infalt/Daqusto thing.
My eyes started to see whats going on.
so my guy would be definitely John
John i think would walk or explain you through anything he needed to get you to understand why or how you can be more successful.
I doubt John would try to sell you stands or sticks either lol
No offense to no one. Thats my story and why I choose Johnny Carbon. Lol
And no i dont or never will hsve any scent regiment lol
