It just turned over 13 weeks to the Rifle Opener. I do not usually make predictions on how the upcoming Rifle Season is going to go. I do have my suspicions, and when compared with reality, they’re usually wrong. I cannot help it. Every year, I start looking for the … Continue reading →
When the surgeon told me last summer that I had cancer, the first thing I asked him was whether or not I could be in my stand for the November Rifle Opener. He said I undoubtedly could. He was true to his word. Last season, I shot a respectable buck … Continue reading →
I turned 64 over the weekend. The whole tribe dropped over to wish me well. My favorite present had to be the new Stormy Kromer that Angus gave me. It’s Hunter Orange. This is my second Stormy Kromer. It all started a couple of years ago when I was getting … Continue reading →
I’m trying to catch up on all of what has happened in the previous months. I discovered a draft of an entry I was about to make just as this whole cancer thing kicked off. You see, I was scurrying about in mid-March, trying to get the pieces together for … Continue reading →
The Fall 2021 Kentucky Hunting and Trapping Guide got posted to the KYDFWR website a couple of weeks ago. Click on the image to get the whole thing I have not found any big changes this year pertinent to Zone1 or the Northeast Region. Be sure to read the rules … Continue reading →
From an email: Oh great shaman! I’ve been offered a rifle for deer hunting that is in 308 Winchester. Is that a good choice? Should I hold out for a 6.5 Creedmore? I guess my 308 WIN experience is perverse compared to most folks. Don’t take me wrong. I don’t … Continue reading →
I’d just made it home from the hospital a few weeks ago, and I was weak enough to feel super-glued to my recliner. Moose and Mooselette stopped over to see how I was doing. I was so happy to see my most honorable #1 Granddaughter. With Chemo Camp I’d been … Continue reading →
Yesterday, I completed my last visit to Chemo Camp. Moose snapped a picture. It ain’t all that pretty. I’m down a good 40 lbs. I’d just had a good stiff hit of anti-nausea drug dumped into my IV line. However, I’m fairly confident the treatments have killed the Cancer. The … Continue reading →
Mind you, I still consider myself the luckiest guy out there. It was just by chance they measured my HCG Turmor Marker back in early April and found the cancer was back. I had my third round of Chemo in the bag for Father’s Day– roughly about the date I … Continue reading →
A while back, I found a site called Deep Art. You feed it a couple of pictures and basically tell it: “Make this pic look like that pic.” It cogitates for a bit and then spits out a third picture that resembles the first pic, but rendered in the style … Continue reading →
Every year I get asked what’s a good deer rifle. I’ve been writing deer rifle recommendations for close on to two decades. Rather than beat that horse again, I want to discuss the scope. Honestly, I am by no means an expert on rifle scopes. However, I’ve been dealing with … Continue reading →
I figure now would be a good time to let y’all know how it’s going. I did not want you to be thinking I was all curled up in a ball somewhere with tubes coming out of me in all directions. The truth is, I’m feeling pretty darn good approaching … Continue reading →
