    Coastal blacktail hunt with 44 MAG carbine

    This is a photo of a photo. I downed this dandy coastal forky when I was stationed at Travis AF Base back in 1991. I had to crawl and use hunting skill to position myself within shooting distance. Marlin 44 MAG did the job with just one shot; distance was about 100 yards. No exit hole which...

    Deer Crossing Sign

    Many years back, I was scouting for a place to hunt deer within the Huron National Forest of Michigan. I had never driven there before but soon encountered a deer crossing yellow sign by the roadway. I stopped and walked back about 100 yards looking for a deer trail. Finding nothing, I reversed...

    Crossbow because elbow injury

    Back in 2003, I fractured the bone in my elbow, and it never healed right. The days of shooting my bow were over. But crossbows suddenly became popular, and I bought a second hand Ten Point for a fair price. Amazing accuracy at 35 yards! TR

    Bushnell builds a very good rifle scope

    This Bushnell scope features 1.5-4.5X settings which is ideal for hunting areas that I frequent. Bright and clear optics for less than $100. This tightly clustered group was shot at 100 yards with 44 MAG. TR

    Phone call from Doctor

    A man gets a call from his Doctor. He says, "I've got some bad news for you and some worse news." "Give me the bad news first." The Doctor tells him that he has only 24 hours left to live. "But the worse news is that I tried to call you yesterday."

    Red Stag

    I took this stag after a long stalk in rough steep country. It took two shots at approx 85 yards to down this magnificent animal. 30-30 is a keeper! - TR

    Pork in the freezer

    Another Florida wild hog for the freezer! This one weighed in at about 90 lbs. Typically, I hunt these tasty animals with my 30-30 but my elk rifle hadn't been out for awhile. .308 is actually way too much power for these hogs but it got the job done! -TR

    Maryland crossbow hunt

    These two does were toppled one after the other from my tree stand. They never caught what was happening. Crossbow is an older Ten Point model. - TR

    Wild hog hunt

    I hunted with a guide for about 6 hours and stalked 3 groups of hogs but they ran off through the forest without providing a good shot. After lunch we lucked out and spotted this sow sleeping in a shallow pit. I spotted it first with my Bushnell 10X binoculars. All I could see were her...

    30-30 hunts - Forests & Foothills

    I have hunted with 30-30 carbines for many decades. Deadly accurate out to about 150 yards or so which suits my spot and stalk approach to hunting mule deer. This heavy bodied big forky was downed in the Black Hills National Forest before South Dakota implemented antler point restrictions...

    Piebald buck

    This very interesting buck was taken by my cousin (pictured) in western Van Wert County, Ohio near the Indiana line. None of the locals had ever seen this buck before nor any piebald deer since his hunt. Perhaps just a one of a kind animal or else possibly wandered in from Indiana. For...
