    My Turn - Indiana bird

    Well I finally put a gun in my hand Saturday morning for the first time during the Indiana season. Headed to a farm I had yet to hunt this year and had a great hunt. Setup about 200yds from what ended up being a boat load of gobblers - the spot is really the only place they roost on the farm...

    Good Day in the Woods - Ryders Bird and some Bonuses

    Well after some terrible youth season weather here in IN and a rough opening morning, I was finally able to put my boy on his 4th bird. The morning started pretty quiet but birds started moving into the field we were set up on about 8:30. First hen showed up and started yapping and it wasnt...

    New respect for turkeys

    Love them both! Wouldn’t give either up but the spring is tough to beat with the world coming back to life, gobbles and laughs with my boy in the turkey blind! I would call them 1a and 1b - Skip put me on an Osceola and you can come hunt any of my farms anytime!

    Question on Turkey numbers….

    Quit going out west to hunt because there are no more birds - literally went to hunting farms that had 20+ gobblers to maybe 1 if you were lucky. But it is all birds, hens were down 80-90% also, has to be disease. We were down here in Illinois and IN also but seem to be making a comeback last 3...

    Wood ducks

    They work really well, just do a little homework on the details. Ducks unlimited use to have a nice tutorial on builds

    The Talk

    Only thing I can recommend is just talk to him about what his goals are with hunting. If he says he just wants to shoot a buck no matter the size, probably not going to change his mind. Had the same talk with family on our farm and now my son. I just want to help them achieve those goals and...

    God has blessed America.

    Not a doubt in my mind it is on both sides - Niki Haley, dirty as they get, McConnell-crook. But I do believe it is heavier on the democratic side, and as Skip said, establishment all need voted out!! Expose it all and then let the American people decide who should be kept based on who voted...

    God has blessed America.

    This is 100% going to be true. We give billions to Ukraine and then they come back and buy US private military contracts and weapons - its real BS to make the insiders rich. they dig all this up and show it to thr American people, the dam on the swamp is gonna bust wide open I think there is a...

    A Straight Walled Gun for my Wife

    The 220 is an awesome gun but will kick your ass compared to any of the straight walls. The recoil on the 3” accutip on that gun is about 23lbs of free recoil - quite a bit for a small frame. I have the Ruger America 350 for my son 75lbs. He has shot 3 deer with it without a problem. Recoil on...
