Almost forgot to get this posted. Working in the Ag industry my springs are pretty well shot but I managed one day to get out and give it a go. With time extremely short I grabbed a tail fan and ran aorund to several spots waiting to find a group to sneak up on. A long crawl through the corn...

Got lucky on Friday with a good friend of mine. Called off the morning hunt with temps around 20 and winds pushing 30 mph.....we decided to sleep in! Bounced around a few spots that afternoon without any luck. had basically called it a day by 530 and happened to find a group with 5 toms in a...

I was VERY fortunate to make my first AR purchase right before all this crazyness started and now am trying to get it all set up at the same time as EVERYONE else. I've done a lot of web searching and looking around in general, but would really like to hear the thoughts of those on here who...

Well working in the world of Ag retail all but eliminated my time in the woods this spring. I managed to make it out first season and help a buddy get his first bird, but didn't fill my tag. 4th season rolled around and EVERY time i thought I could make it out, the phone would ring and off I'd...

Off topic given the time of year I know, but I'll be at Marco Island Florida in late Feb-early March and have the chance to fish the gulf on March 2nd. Just curious if anyone has fished the area, particularly that time of year, and what to expect. I'll probably go regardless, but was curious...

I've done the typical google search, but waneted to know if anyone has a favorite. I've found several that range from $45 to $90 and they all look pretty similar. I may still build my own. Any thoughts?? I'm a little under the gun as the nesting pair is already setting up shop on our pond....

Just got a phone call from home. A good friend of mine got shot in the chest today while doing a drive through standing corn. He's alive and in the hospital. The word from the hospital is that the bullet struck his zipper-pull and was slowed enough to not kill him on the spot. Just a...

http://www.slate.com/id/2197504/?GT1=38001 I think calling it a trap is a bit much... had to read the whole thing to figure out that the guy at least admits that he's not totally against trail-cams.

While we're guessing, how old do you think this one is?

I've now gotten birds for three first timers and I'm still holding empty tags. I have set up on the same bird 5 times and he's outsmarted me every time. Monday morning I was literally within range in the dark when he started gobbling from the roost. I couldn't see him through the leaves but he...

After a few slow days in the timber I decided to chase some greenheads last Sunday. My partner and I were going to hit the marsh at 430 to see what we could find. I got a message at 100 that some A-hole had decided it would be fun to watch a duck boat burn. He woke up to a huge fireball in...

O.k. Finally got my new Matthews all set up but am now wondering about arrow selection. It's a Q2-XL with a 31" draw @70lbs. I am thinking about aluminum because of the length but am open to suggestions. What do you guys think. I currently use 100 grain broadheads but that could change if...

With a whopping 10 minutes left in the season I finally filled my last tag. I coaxed a tom in from over 400 yards across a corn field, it took about 45 minutes. He's not huge but with time ticking away, anything goes. He went 9.0, .75, .75, and my guesstimate is about 22-23 lbs. A great...

Limb Chicken has taken it upon himself to post my pic for me. Got him 11-9 at 7:25 am. Had seen this buck 3 other times before taking him. Stood in the same spot as the 160 class 8 piont that I missed 3 days prior!! Rattled him in and took him at about 20 yards. Should just make book at...

Sorry man, I have been out of the loop for a while. The shed hunting wasn't worth a sh!#. Did get in some quality scouting time though. Tried the walleyes on the res on Saturday and caught nothing but a cold. Water temp not quite up to par yet. Heard the cats were biting along 380/965. Let...

I know that this is hard to believe, but I SWEAR I found an abandoned nest two weeks ago! I know that there is no way that the eggs could have survived the winter, so that means that they had to be new. They had been broken open, probably by predators, and all that was left was the shells...

Alright guys and gals, we're a week away from the Classic, so what's the plan? I'll be in the Savory for the weekend, and am looking forward to getting together with everyone so let's here the ideas so we can make plans. Friday or Saturday? We'll plan according to the number of people who can...
