Heartbreak in the deer woods…

We all know deer hunting is a game of ups and downs. I freely admit that I sometimes hate hunting whitetails. After days or weeks of hard hunting with no success, I feel like I hate going out there, but if you give me 1-2 days off (or a week), I’m ready to go again [...]

Super Cold Good Time To Harvest Deer

The right time of year…

Now JT and his Monster OH buck have proved me wrong from the start here, but generally late Sept and early Oct. can be tough times to kill deer. Many times they stay in the woods eating oaks, are hard to pattern, etc. I find that this is a great time to practice management.
Today is [...]

Trail Cam Bucks and Giant from Kentucky

Here are several more trail cam photos from American-Hunter.com readers from Ohio and Virginia. Bow season and gun season should be awesome this fall across the Midwest, because corn is being harvested early due to dry conditions. This will keep bucks in the timber where they can be ambushed. Good luck everyone!
