    XOP Deluxe Seat Cushion, LW upgrade

    The thing I don't like about my XOP cushion is that when you tip the seat up, it is so thick that the seat won't stay up. I put on a cushion off one of my cheap menards stands. I probably stand 45 minutes out of every hour anyways.

    Hunt report / Rut report

    Was hopeful tonight with the dropping temps. Got skunked however. Did see deer on their feet on the drive home however. 1 doe still with 2 fawns, lone doe, and young buck.

    Persistence Pays Off

    Congrats, I enjoyed the story!

    Age this Deer

    I would agree that he is older than you think. Might just be bad genetics on the rack. Based on that giant block head, thick neck and chest, and what appears to be a belly but hard to tell, I'd say he's fully mature.

    First Bow Buck

    This is my first bow buck after 6 seasons of bow hunting and first buck taken from the acreage my parents purchased 4 years ago. I've taken several does and have had several opportunities at bucks that I've messed up in one way or another. This year, I thought it was going to be the same. Two...

    Under Armor

    I agree with many of your points. I agree that hunting will not go away, however, think of how many "NO HUNTING" signs you see now compared to 10-20 years ago. Part of that I know is leasing and whatnot but in part it is because of this kind of thing. I know other property owners that are not...

    Under Armor

    I have been following this story for the past couple days. I have held myself back from a knee jerk reaction and have personally experienced several different feelings about this over the last couple days. I have read statements from the Drurys, listened to the Cam and Joe podcast, and read...

    Daughter's First Turkey

    Every night this week I would show turkey image pictures from google and I would quiz her on shot placement. This particular angle is easy to pick a spot:)

    Daughter's First Turkey

    My 10 year old daughter was able to harvest her first turkey yesterday (with a bow). It was an an amazing experience for her, and for me. Both of my 2 daughters were in the blind with me which made it even more special. To make things even better, we had just got settled in to the blind...

    Shot Placement on Turkeys

    This is an effective shot placement. Worked for my 10 year old daughter, should work for you too.

    Opinions on new sight

    I shoot a sword twilight hunter and love it. Believe it was just over 100

    Switchgrass

    Frost seeded switchgrass last winter. 1/2 switch 1/2 foxtail and other weeds. It is still in dormancy. I am wondering if I should mow it now (mid may) or wait until it comes out of dormancy. I know I should mow high if it is green but does it matter if it is still dormant?

    Pressured birds

    The last two seasons I've taken my daughters out with me, so I hunted later in the mornings or afternoons. Each year I had a bird on the ground within an hour and a half, first sit. This year was 9:30 am and last year was 5:00 pm. Perhaps though they just give me some luck! When I go out...
