    Survivor

    Found some info on my late muzzy buck i posted in harvest. He had a deformed hoof and the guy at Milo that checked him in for me said he was told once by someone with the DNR that it can be a result from a deer surviving blue tongue. Seemed too interesting to not pass along. Taxidermist checked...

    Awesome year

    After tagging out on Oct 4th bow I had an itch so went ahead and hunted this morning in a 12 ft tripod I had set up in an immature treeline between crp cut beans and cut corn. About 20 minutes before legal light I saw a single deer nose to ground heading along a trail in the crp about 50 yds. I...

    Lost property

    Just got a text from the landowner today that I can't hunt anymore. No explanation given. I gave the spot up I used on the local public to my son last year so I'm kind of out of options. Any suggestions out there? I'm in Warren county. This late in the year I'm not to confident any door knocking...

    My first Turkey

    He came to calls with 20 minutes left. Dropped him in his tracks at 40 yds. Was having zero luck hunting field edges with dekes and a blind so I moved into the timber and sat by a tree, no decoys. Worked like a charm. The toms were continually locking up at 80 yards + so I figured i'd try to...

Now I'm a total wreck as soon as i have one coming in and it can only end badly. I've already had a miss on a doe. Complete miss thank god. Used the...
