    IT'S Been Awhile

    I figure at this point in my life, with my oldest soon to be starting actually hunting himself, its going to be more about them putting meat down than me. I have taken several youth hunters out over the years and would much rather see them put down a big deer than me. Not sure when I became a...

    IT'S Been Awhile

    I can honestly say that as much as I love being outdoors in the stand, dove fields, squirrel woods, or following a good setter in the grouse woods, I never imagined being happier being with the family. I do miss spending most of my time in the woods but I wouldn't trade 1 day with the family...

    Thanks! With 4 kids I can barely remember what I had for breakfast.

    IT'S Been Awhile

    I honestly can not remember the last time I posted on here. Probably a couple of years ago at least but I do check in from time to time to see how everyone is doing. The last couple of years have had me even searching for a chance to get in the stand. My oldest son will be turning 5 next...

    Coyote Study

    Im not saying it will happen soon or at all for that matter but I wouldn't be surprised if it did. Also not trying to ruffle anyone's feathers. Its all about money and how to capitalize. I'm sure way back when hunting license and tags were not required for any animal, hunters were thinking...

    Coyote Study

    It's only a matter of time before the state realizes they can make money from coyotes. I see an increase of hunters every year. Sooner or later the state will end up requiring a coyote tag much like deer or turkey. I know it sounds crazy but it will happen. If things keep going like they...

    Dog training tips or a good trainer?

    Agreed. Not many options unless he gets real good at using a rubber band gun.

    Dog training tips or a good trainer?

    Tie her out on a chain, about 20', with a dog box for cover during the night. Place her feed bowl far enough away from the dog house that she has to almost stretch the chain or rope all the way out to eat. Whenever you feed her make sure you have a .22 pistol loaded. Each time she starts to...

    I don’t get it!!!

    Seems like shows now are only concerned with advertising. Very limited amount of actual hunting going on. I understand why they need to advertise but GEEZ, it is a little too much. All hunting shows follow the same script: 5 minutes of advertising followed by 10 minutes of suspenseful music...

    I don’t get it!!!

    I'm thinking a show needs to be started for the real-world hunter. I could see a market for filmed hunts, filmed by hunters like many of us on this forum. Probably no money in it to making a living on but it would be neat to see the hunts of fellow friends. Hard part would be purchasing...

    Food and drink in the woods?

    A few years ago before I stopped puffin' on the cancer sticks, I would smoke 3-4 while in a stand and it never bothered the deer. As a matter of fact, I felt like I would always see deer right after smoking more often than not smoking. In turn this made me smoke more because I thought it was...
