A Different kind of Deer Hunt!

I just returned from a fantastic hunt for an out of the ordinary whitetail. The small Coue’s whitetail lives in AZ, NM and Mexico, and weighs roughly 90 pounds. Though small in size, this deer is a real challenge, and a 110” B&C class Coue’s looks like he has lots of headgear.
My first two days [...]

Here is the rest of my story…After taking the big 150″ 8 pointer, I went back to the same stand to shoot a doe.
A few does came out about 200 yards out, and then I looked up and saw tines in the same spot where I spotted my buck the evening before. When he stepped [...]

Hola from southern Iowa…This was one hunt I was really looking forward to. I drew an Iowa first shotgun/muzzleloader season tag this year, and I was going to hunt with one of the deer hunters I respect most in the world, Bill Winke.
Now Bill doesn’t do anything but hunt with his Hoyt bow anymore, but he [...]

I would like to know your thoughts. Since a few days before Thanksgiving, I have been getting reports from all over the Midwest that buck activity has really tapered off and in some cases become virtually nonexistant.
Here in central KY, our rifle season ended Sunday the 29th. We had an extremely warm season, and most [...]

BIG OKLAHOMA BUCK DOWN – FINALLY

I have been having a nightmare of a November. I have been sick with Swine Flu, hunted hard in Nebraska, and then hunted for almost a week in Kentucky, and did not score. That is whitetail hunting, right? It is the great equalizer. You can do it all right for a week or two when [...]

I took my 6 year old son Jared hunting last night and we had a great time.  He harvested his first deer and was more excited than I can put into words (so was I!). We hunted from a Double Bull blind (www.primos.com) a soybean field just outside a woods.  He used an Excalibur crossbow (www.excaliburcrossbow.com) tipped with [...]
