    First time hunting Pronghorn; thank you Hunttalk!

    So, after two years of planning and research, a friend and I took the plunge and headed out to Wyoming. We failed to draw last year, but this year we snagged our 1st choice unit. We made the 20hr drive from Kentucky only stopping for gas and food. After taking a short nap at the hotel, we...

    Wy unit 27

    No advice, but I've got the same tag and will be there come October with a buddy. Good luck to you and your son!

    Low end optics

    Valid point, but maybe a good lesson for said child. Let them learn the lesson early on that buy cheap -> get cheap. I'd much rather have my kids learn at the lower end of the gear spectrum so that they better appreciate the quality stuff. Much like a junker first car, which to me is a right...

    what camera to buy

    The options are nearly endless without knowing your exact needs, but I'd suggest sticking with Canon, Nikon, or Sony. You'll also want as many manual controls as you can get. Another item to add to your camera bag that really ups your photo game is a reflector, which are cheap and lightweight...

    Where for Whitetail?

    Archery season runs from beginning of Sep thru January in KY, which allows for many opportunities. Low priced non-res tags and plenty of public land opportunities. I hunt mostly private, but public ground is what got me thru college. I arrowed one of my biggest bucks on public ground.

    Foodplot Problems

    I don't have 1st hand experience with corn, but I saw this a couple days ago and it seems to speak to your exact issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=odBANVeozbE (Particularly around the 7min mark) Give the critters an easy meal to keep them off your plantings until they reach maturity.

    Win a hunt!

    I throw away $20 every year for the Elk lottery here in KY and don't get any DVDs, so this is a lot better. Plus this probably has a lot better odds than KY's elk draw!

    Things to do in NC

    May not be exactly what you're looking for, but if you're that close you might as well drive down to Ocean Isle and eat at the Sugar Shack. Best ribs I've ever had

    Finally got it put together. . .

    Hey hey hey! We Kentuckians don't shoot people unless they deserve it. And if you hoosiers treat a rifle like a basketball then I'm confident nobody will ever get hit! :D :D :D

    avian x turkey

    I have the breeder, but plan to get the feeding before next spring. IMO a high-headed turkey is one on alert. Not the message I'm trying to send to wary gobblers. I've had good luck with the breeder though. You can't go wrong with the Avian-X, super good looking decoys.

    question for the fowlers out there

    I'd check out places in Western KY. Low non-res prices, close to home, and plenty of opportunities for you there. I've hunted quota draw on Ballard WMA there and i've never seen so many birds in one place. Specks, Canadas, Snows, and most every duck imaginable. Plenty of public land and many...

    Funny Story... Special KY Quota Hunt

    Looks like I'm going to be hunting the Bluegrass Army Depot for the special archery deer hunt at the end of October! I'll be in area B if in the remote chance that anyone on here has ever done this hunt and is willing to share some past experience. Now for the funny part: One of my good...
