Tuesday after work I moved a stand to a spot that most would think was stupid. Other than a trail there wouldn't be a reason to put a stand where I did. Kinda in the middle of the woods. But from a stand on top of the hill I could see that the trail was used as a travel route by mostly bigger...

Still hunted in the rain all day yesterday. Spotted a 10 pointer and got to within 20 yards in the morning before he spotted me. Had a nice 8 in a downpour later in the day and he got to walk. My biggest bow kill was in miserable rain/sleet afternoon. Tough hunting in the rain but it can pay...

Thumbs up.

I think the cull buck myth gained traction in the hunting community after all the hunting shows would have their celebrity hunter shoot a "cull buck". High fence outfitters make a living selling hunts. Hunting shows do not pay to hunt high fence. That resulted in the owner saying, " You know...

Thanks for making my point.

Luvstuen buck for example 100% agree. Here is maybe a little bit funny but still a valid comparison. I could be considered a cull buck. Mature, (though maybe a little on the down side), average body, average looks, above average personality. My wife, although mature, posesses above average...

I don't dispute there are bucks that will never grow large racks but that does not mean thier offspring won't. The deer breeder I had a conversation with had documented that breeding his prize bucks with just any doe did not nesessarily produce prized offspring. Once he paired up his bucks...

I've believed for years that it is impossible to tell if a young buck will ever amount to anything. Especially after having a long discussion with a captive deer breeder. Shooting a smaller buck to get him out of the gene pool? How could anyone know what the deer would have turned into...

very nice. congrats

As stated above, weather is the big factor along with the food source. If they are there I would be extra careful with exposure cause they will be spooky. Oh yeh, one more thing. Make sure you are out there before and during any type of snow fall.

Early last Thursday morning my brother and best friend lost his battle with pancreatic cancer. He fought it as hard as he could but I think his body and mind finally had enough and died peacefully in his sleep at home. His funeral was Monday, but Tuesday I sat in his manroom with my sons, dad...

Was on my annual spring Texas pig hunt last week with my brother, son, nephew and two other friends. My brother and me left for the lease on Wednesday and by sundown I dumped an oinker with a bow. First with a bow BTW. Not very big but hey, a pig is a pig. I shot one more and as a group we had...

A few years ago I suggested if Iowa used the Gov tags to promote Iowa, they would get alot more exposure, goodwill, and bang for the buck if they offered it to groups like Make a Wish or Wounded Warrior and forget about all the Hunting Celebrities. Good lord, how many ways can the hunting...

If I were you Wayne I'd start with arresting all the city counsil members then mayor, administrator and so on until they cave. Remember, you have no friends in your business.....:D

GOARMY. Your missing my point I think. I know Illinois has good hunting. I know Pike county is a top spot. Probably one of the best money can buy. But if I bought an Illinois tag for next year and wanted to hunt Pike county what are my odds of getting on some private ground by just knocking...

You know, the NR land owner issue has been hashed out many times on IWT through the years. A high percentage of resident and NR hunters agree that changing the NR land owner laws would hurt us in the long run. And there is plenty of evidence to suggest that. Look at Illinois, Pike county as...

Very nice Buck. Nice job
