A New Shooting Bench 5 (1)

Genesis9:2-4 Ministries Posted on September 12, 2021 by shamanSeptember 12, 2021  

Nineteen years ago, I made my first steps toward accurate shooting. I decided to build a dedicated shooting table that would stay up on the front porch. This was big step along the path. Prior to this, I had been going to a range to sight in rifles, but I … Continue reading →

Genesis9:2-4 Ministries Posted on August 15, 2021 by shamanMay 19, 2023  

I walked into a conversation down at Mister Browning’s Store the other day.  O.D. was in the process of egging on a guy he calls “Bigtime.” The truth is, I don’t remember Bigtime’s real name.  I’ve taken to calling him Bigtime as well.  He seems to like it.  The reason … Continue reading →

Genesis9:2-4 Ministries Posted on June 30, 2021 by shamanOctober 21, 2024  

We just witnessed the full moon in October. Folks call it the Hunter’s Moon. Folks also kind of get mixed up as to why. I want to discuss the moon’s influences on deer hunting and maybe shed some light on why we associate the moon so closely with hunting. Let … Continue reading →

Genesis9:2-4 Ministries Posted on June 29, 2021 by shamanJune 29, 2021  

I’ve gotten several questions over the past year or so about the 6.5 Creedmore. I guess it is time to lay down a definitive answer. Should I buy a Creed for deer hunting? The answer to this is maybe. I’ll try and explain. What is the 6.5 Creedmore? It is … Continue reading →

How Have I Changed over 40 Years 0 (0)

Genesis9:2-4 Ministries Posted on June 18, 2021 by shamanMay 19, 2023  

Mac, a 24hourCampfire regular asked  “How Has Your Point of View on Hunting Changed as you aged?” The problem is that you take 40 years and try to distill it all down, it ends up with something like: “WWII happened because Hitler invaded Poland. The Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, and … Continue reading →

Genesis9:2-4 Ministries Posted on June 6, 2021 by shamanMay 19, 2023 2

From a recent email (address witheld) Shaman, I hunt in almost identical circumstances as yours– pastures, cedar thickets and oak groves. Am I to understand that you don’t recommend lever actions for deer hunting at all anymore? I would think that a nice 30-30 would be ideal. Dave in Warsaw … Continue reading →

I do not usually miss a turkey. Missing two the first week is unheard of in my long career. However, this morning saw my second since the Opener. The first was due to taking a shot without being properly situated. The one this morning has me scratching my head. The … Continue reading →

Indiana DNR Rule Changes 0 (0)

The Indiana Department of Natural Resources has changed the rules a wee bit.  Turkey hunters can now use .410 shotguns, and can use smaller shot.  Deer hunters  can now use breechloading muzzleloaders (there’s an oxymoron)  like the Traditions Nitro system.

It’s funny. I looked over on the left at the “On This Day” box and it said that I had reported the Kentucky Spring Hunting Guide had been posted in 2013. Sure enough, I went to look on the KYDFWR site, and look what I found:   I could not … Continue reading →

Genesis 9:2-4

2 The fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every bird of the air, upon everything that creeps on the ground and all the fish of the sea; into your hand they are delivered. 3 Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you; and as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything. 4 Only you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood.
