Youth season came and went with no sightings of anything over 1 1/2. So my boy turned his attention to taking his first deer with a bow. We have been a handful of times but until recently it has been pretty warm down here so we had not seen much. I had to work all day Saturday and asked the...

This year my boy wanted to try to kill one with his bow so I told him he had to put in the practice time. He did and was drilling the bullseye out to 20 yards from all positions (chair, knees, standing). I told him he could use his bow if he wanted but that it would be tough cause we didn’t have...

After a couple years of not getting a shot at anything decent. I was able to harvest a decent buck this morning. He came in around 7:30 down wind and did not want to step into the open. Finally after a couple of doe bleats, he slowly walked into an opening at 20 yards. Was able to run the...

If you remember from last year my boy shot a really nice 9 point for his first buck. Well he was at it again this morning and dropped this buck in his tracks. It happened pretty fast as this buck and another 8 came in behind us chasing a doe and didn’t want to stop. Finally at about 130 yards...

Pulled my camera tonight before gun season tonight. Going through the pictures, this showed up and I have no idea what it is. First thought was a hunting dog of some sort (shorthair) but nobody around there has one and I've never seen one while on stand around this area. Any thoughts?

I need a little help from anyone with knowledge of South Dakota. Pheasant season opens on the 20th of October and my son turns 13 on the 21st. I’ve been planning to take him for the weekend and trying to do my homework but I can’t really find anything that shows where any Public Hunting is...

Caution Long Read - Pictures below. It was a challenging year in the stand with the bow this season but I couldn't be happier with the old warrior I was finally able to get out in daylight to harvest. I have close to two dozen pictures of this guy and only one was during legal shooting time...

Was able to get my boy his first buck this morning! It was absolutely awesome. We set up this morning with plans to let him shoot a doe as we knew where some were traveling after daylight then planned to set up on a corn field for an evening hunt where we have been seeing a nice 9 point but...

Looking for a little help on Pointer Shotguns. They are made by Legacy Sports International, same company that makes Howa rifles, Escort Shotguns and a couple other brands. My Dad is retiring in May and my Mom and I are looking into buying him a new Over/Under Shotgun but don't really want...

My boy was able to connect about 7:10 am on Easter Morning with a nice tom. This is the 2nd year in a row he has killed his bird on Easter. 22 lbs 4 oz 9 3/4" Beard 1" Spurs He gobbled like crazy on the roost but came in strutting and silent until it was too late!

Well a couple firsts for me. I heard some birds gobbling up on a ridge in deep timber. Decided I would try to get in as close as I could. When I figured I was within 100 yards of them I crawled out as far as I dared to put up the hen decoy. It took at least 45 minutes of calling and going...

Well the boy got it done this morning. This tom and 8 hens flew down into the opposite meadow we were set up in and were about 100 yards away from us. Had a hen land in our decoys but she eventually went the other way. I knew he wouldn't come our way with his hens over there. We decided we...

Just realized I threw the pictures up on the PMA page. Finally got one close enough in 4th season to take a shot. 10.5" Beard 1" Spurs 22.9 lbs

I broke down and purchased a new muzzleloader this summer and now have a guy that asked about my old one. I didn't plan on selling it with the scope as I was going to put it on the new one but he says he wants the scope as well. I don't want to overprice the gun and scope but want enough that...

Managed to get it done on a cold morning bird! Not much of a story, things were pretty quiet only hearing 2 maybe 3 gobbles all morning. Saw this guy and two other toms slowly following a hen and managed to get between them before they got up the hill she went over and waited them out. He...

Bear with me as this could get long. It started to today as I was driving to St. Louis for a road trip for a double header tomorrow for my baseball team. About an hour into the trip my wife texted me and said my son (5 years old) was reading one of his dog books and told her that he wanted a...

Just a shameless plug here; if anyone happens to be in the Grand River, Iowa area next week, the Decatur County Ducks Unlimited Banquet will be held at the Community Center in Grand River on Saturday the 23rd. Dinner will be served at 7 pm serving pulled pork and smoked chicken. Tickets will...

Sorry that I am just now getting around to posting the story and pictures but here is my first season bird. Nothing huge but always interesting none the less. I hunted the first morning in the rain but had nothing respond. Second morning I was in the middle of at least 10-12 tom's gobbling...

I know I am breaking every man law on here but I just got back from 1st Season Rifle Elk hunt in Colorado, I have tons of pictures but have not been able to get them uploaded to my compurter. I hope to in the next couple of days for all you to see. Long story short, I killed a 5 x 5 Bull on...

Well I finally got on the board yesterday about 9:40 in the morning. Not my biggest bird with the weather and as hard as they were calling I will take him and look for a bigger one during 4th season. The picture is of my 2 year old son with his BB gun as he claimed the bird as soon as I got...
