long story boring; the year was 2011, i was back in georgia after redeploying from iraq. we were outside tybee island, maybe two miles from shore, bottom fishing with uglystiks and cheap bait casters. i landed a big ol' red drum, pushing 25 lbs. completely smoked the drag, that reel was never...
and bought a bow. not just any bow, but a bear wild bow. i found it on sale at the local shop, $150 for the bare bear. so, now begins the long journey of outfitting the pride and joy. it may not be the best bow, but i'm new to deer hunting, and even more new to archery, and this seems like...
getting married at the end of the month, the wife-to-be wants to take a mini-moon before we take our actual honeymoon to italy in november. planning now on the first weekend in october, and looking for some suggestions where to go for a quiet, mountainous cabin in either wyoming or colorado...
long story boring, i have 3.5 days of hunting in wyoming to get a lope or 3. i'll be driving from minnesota, i have OnX, i can do online scouting, but i'm a terrible hunter and fisher. i'm a decent shot(thanks army), willing to sit and be patient, but what advice would you give? looking near...
Anyone whose had success, I would appreciate your advice. I've been looking long and hard for a used bear recurve bow for turkey, deer, and fun. However, everyone who is selling them wants pretty much what a new recurve costs. eBay, craigslist, local bow shops. Seems like you're not saving a...
So I'm one of those adult onset hunters, have about 90% of the gear I need, and pretty much am down to getting binos and I should be set. Got the rifle, shotgun, good boots, camo, fishing gear, and canoe. Got the time, the public lands, and the desire. But how do you guys budget your outdoor...
It's about that time folks, MN walleye fishing opener is 170 hours away, and preparations are underway to ensure that the equipment is still working. I pulled out the coleman dual fuel stove and the coleman dual fuel lantern, and it got me wondering, who(other than me) still uses the old school...
OK, long story boring, I'm an adult onset hunter. I spent the last six years in the Army, so I understand the importance of good footwear, but the choices for good hunting boots is confusing. I've applied for a WY antelope tag this fall, will be chasing whitetails in MN and WI, but the goal is...
I'm about a week from moving out of the PNW and back to the midwest, so it was time to clean out the freezer. I pulled out a few pounds of widgeon, a pound of venison, and some bacon(couldn't find pork fat) and put my new cabela's sausage stuffer to work. After tediously hand grinding the...

Joining hunt talk after listening to Randy's podcasts, and wanting to get more involved in the hunting life. I grew up in Minnesota, spent a few years living up in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area, until I joined the Army. Right now, I'm about two weeks from getting out...
