From Turkey and Turkey Hunting I’ll stand up and raise my hand. I am a turkey hunting expert. There isn’t anyone alive who knows my turkeys better than I do. However, that only covers 200 acres of ground in the Trans-Bluegrass of Kentucky. Of course, even I occasionally leave a … Continue reading →
From: Explain your hunt First off, let me remind y’all that I’m turkey hunter that hunts his own 200 acres. I can go out on my front porch in the morning and owl and have gobblers sounding off a full 360 degrees. When the alarm goes off, I usually take … Continue reading →
I was sitting in one of those old steel lawn chairs, that kind of acts like a rocking chair– kind of springy and such. Whenever I go to the store, that is the chair I like best. My grandfather used to have a set of them– paid me $5 one … Continue reading →
Here it is getting on towards Christmas, and I haven’t written much in a month. I didn’t mean to go on hiatus. It just turned out that way. I started to write this last weekend while I was at Deer Camp cleaning up and getting the place shut down for … Continue reading →
The past few years, I’ve been putting out a sort-of diary from turkey camp and deer camp on this forum or that. I figured this would be as good a place as any. I arrived yesterday afternoon and filled the fridge and freezer out in the shed. That’s a donation … Continue reading →
This is in response to: Higher Priced Non-Resident License, a thread over on KentuckyHunting.net I am a resident of Ohio, and hunt exclusively in Zone 1. Kentucky affords me a much better opportunity to hunt deer and turkey. My family owns 200 acres in Bracken County. I’ve written several times … Continue reading →
I’ve finally done some serious hunting with the crossbow. I had it out a few times over the weekend in between hunting for turkey with Angus. Nothing really went wrong with any of it. It just wasn’t as much fun as my bow and certainly not like a rifle. For … Continue reading →
Last year I did a bunch of posts on my testing of UV-suppression in relation to deer hunting. You’re welcome to go look. Use the search function and look for on keywords like “UV-Killer” “elephant repellent” “useless” and so on. I had several posts last Fall , all the way … Continue reading →
(Or is that Moron ?) I got to keep saying to myself “CFAB!” “CFAB!” You’d think, starting way back in July, I’d be all ready for my first season with the crossbow. I am, but just barely. Honestly I missed my target of hunting with it last weekend for the … Continue reading →
I’m hoping we can piece the remains of the new shooting house back together, and get a couple of new stands set up over the new food plots. Angus is still a yute, I’d like to see him bag something early in Yute Season Moose is probably due for a … Continue reading →
I thought about this long and hard for years. The Magic Watch There are two conclusions in that piece: 1) I see more deer when I’m outside than when I’m inside. 2) I see more deer when I’m not looking at the watch. Since that piece, I’ve done some additional … Continue reading →
A bunch of things have come together to force this issue to the fore at our house. 1) We started getting the Outdoor Channel again on our cable. It had been missing for several years. 2) I got a DVR. 3) It’s been hot and muggy and I’m inclined to … Continue reading →
Here’s a snake story for y’all. I was down in the Big South Fork, just before Turkey Season in 2000. My buddy that lived down there had taken me out scouting here and there, and then we assembled the whole tribe and went for a hike, heading downstream from Yamacraw. … Continue reading →
