    2nd bird - tagged out

    On May 2nd I took my 7 year old out and I was able to fill my 2nd bow tag of the year. The boy was a trooper! We got up at 3am and after a hour drive and long hike up and down some bluffs, we were setup by 5. Not a lot of gobbling on the roost but once they hit the ground it was game on. At...

    A friend and I were fortunate enough to tag these two birds opening day, got some cool footage too. Lesson learned on the 2nd encounter....have the bow ready to shoot! Had I done that I’d be tagged out. 1st bird was shot around 8am and the second encounter was just after noon. Tuesday and...

    My 2018 Season

    I was able to score on 2 nice bucks this year. Here are the stories: Buck #1 - Early Muzzleloader Early muzz has been good to me over the last several years. The places I have to hunt receive a significant amount of pressure during the shotgun seasons so late season usually always ended in...

    1st season - 4 birds down 3 hunts

    I don't post here much anymore, just don't have much bonus time to post a lot with 3 kiddos. But, I'm at home today tending a sick kid and found some time share how my 2018 went. I always take the first few days of the season off work, as the birds seem to be more cooperative the earlier it...

    Trapping Coyotes

    First off I want to preface this post by saying that I understand that you cannot get rid of coyotes permanently. That isn't my intention. I'm dealing with an overpopulation problem and need to kill a whole bunch. I typed up a whole crap ton of info but I didn't want to bore anyone so I...

    2nd Gobby Down

    I took down my 2nd bird of the season this morning. I went back to the "gobbler ridge" where I took my first bird of the season last Tuesday. This marks 5 out of my last 6 toms have come from this spot. Pretty unbelievable spot. Like last week, the alarm went off early, 3:00am to be exact...

    On the Board

    I had an exciting hunt this morning, first turkey hunt of the year. I had about an hour drive and a long walk so it was an early morning for me. I got the blind set up on "gobbler ridge" as I now call it about a hour before sunrise. Nothing much to the hunt, daybreak came and a bird that was...

    Cell Phone Charge

    Needing some advice regarding keeping a cell phone charged on those super cold all day sits. In the past on cold days, my cell phone usually likes to poop out on me around 11am, I get a couple of more hours if the weather is warmer...which is just unacceptable for the all day sits. I use a GPS...

    I wrapped my 2nd turkey bow tag around some turkey feet this morning. Went to the same spot where I shot my 2nd bird last season, an open area of timber situated in between two roosting ridges (on public land, borders private land that I have permission on). Made the hike in really early this...

    Anchored a Toad

    I haven't scored him yet, but I think I probably bagged my highest scoring turkey this morning. I always take the first week of turkey season off, just because I love turkey hunting so much. There's something about those nervous, anxious, crazy birds just makes me love chasing them. It was a...

    Bird #2 Hits the Dirt

    At about 7:00 this morning my 2012 turkey season came to an end. My alarm went off this morning at 2:30 because I had about a hour to drive to my spot, then about a 45 minute hike to a secluded piece of public land where I know the birds typically roost. It was a pretty classic hunt, I had...

    Perfect Afternoon in the Woods

    Most of the time when we head to the woods we have high expectations but come up short for one reason of another, probably just the nature of the beast. Sometimes we fill a tag, and sometimes there are those rare times in the woods when everything for one reason or another goes right. The...

    GPS Units?

    I'm looking for some advice on a good GPS unit. I recently secured a couple of more properties to hunt next fall and am going to go in there to find some stand sites after the season this year. Problem is that these are big timber areas and I'd like to have a device that I can mark a stand...

    SEIowaDeerslayer redeems himself!

    April 11th and 12th, 2011 were the two best days of turkey hunting in my life.

    Guillotines vs. Bullheads

    I think I already know the answers I'm going to get on this, but I need some advice. First off, last year was the first year I hunted turks with a bow and was able to take my first archery bird using the Guillotine. It worked like a charm, using 5" feathers with a right helical, flew right...
