    Southern guys

    Here is a recent podcast I have enjoyed. Jeremy is a friend of mine and a wealth of knowledge. This is primarily focused on the SE. I like it because they discuss social variances, mgt differences, etc. One example is the use of high fencing and/or fire - these are rarely used in most of...

    BH review

    I’ve enjoyed expandable BHs for years. I’ve had fantastic luck with Rage but I wanted to try a few others. This year I tried the mega meats. After shooting a doe on Saturday - I have to say - I am impressed. They fly well and boy, they cut a big hole. You can replace the blades easily and the...

    The wide 8

    Here he is! 9/30/2023 and my season is over (for bucks) in the great buckeye state! This is a deer I passed several times last year and he made an impressive jump this year as what I believe is a 4.5 year old. This year he was just so patterned and I needed to make a move early - I got lucky...

    The Late Season Buck Finale As many know I am blessed to own and manage a sizeable farm in Eastern Ohio. Soil and whitetails are a massive part of my life. On the farm, we manage strictly for age structure and doe densities albeit one young buck was shot by my youth cousin this year (amazing...

    Sitka gear

    For those of you that know me, you probably see I am not “up to date” on the latest trends in the industry. Most of my clothes and gear are older - not that I can’t get newer stuff, it’s just been tried and true for me. Anyway - over the last few years mom and dad buy me Sitka clothing. One...

    Sometimes you’re just lucky

    Got out late - setup on the “rock face” where I can see a huge bottom. Sat for 20mins, saw deer. By 30mins in, the 450 barked and it was over. 80 yard shot, heart and lungs. Best part was recruiting my cousin to “help” me find her. Was his first experience. ps. When deer die in deep bottoms -...

    Con Yeager Spice Company

    Like most of you all, I am cooking venison often and always looking for new ways to cook it, try it, etc. One goal for me is to not have to ADD FAT to every venison dish. I actually enjoy the leanness of the venison. I do add pork if making sausage or something of that nature. Anyhow, a year...

    3 years in making

    TSI, Forestry, EQUIP

    Ok, so you just bought the farm of your dreams. If you are like most of us, you had to sacrifice to buy the farm and now you are stretched thin - hoping to find a way to balance pleasure, hobbies and hopefully some sources of income. So what is next? If the farm has timber: One of the first...
