I use to have a stack of them but gave them all away a few years back. Just bought a new truck and need a decal. Anyone got a spare sitting around they would sell me? Thanks Kratz

Well I don’t have the full stories but wanted to give a shout out to my nephew for a grinding season that rewarded him with 2 great whitetails. Nov. 11th he connected on his first archery buck ever. He has been really patient the last 3 years and let a lot of really nice 3 year olds walk, much...

After a tough week in Indiana, with a close encounter with my target buck that ended without a shot I headed to IL for a week hunt. I had 2 bucks that were showing up frequently during daylight hours on cam that I was targeting. During my first sit on Sunday the 10th I had one of my shooters...

After an unsuccessful 2022 season for my son he was more determined than ever he was going to get his first deer this year. We had put in the time behind the gun and he was dialed in with 3” groups at 50yds and he was excited to hunt over a plot that he helped me plant in late summer. Ryder...

Never seen anything like this, but spring 2024 he is going to be a target

Second season behind the gun for my son Ryder. I had been seeing a few birds for a week or so straight in the same field about the same time so was pretty confident we were going to have a good hunt. The only thing I didn't know is where they were roosted so I needed to figure out if I could get...

I have always been a huge double bull fan and own 2 of them, with my favorite still being the Matrix 360 in terms of usability, camo, etc. I had always wanted to get the Surround View but really didn't want to drop the coin when my others are still in such good shape. Enter the TideWe see...

Question for the folks that do this best. I want to put in a new kill plot 2/3 acre or so. The area is open so no problem in terms of growth. However it is historically weedy and grassy. What is the best route for a new plot? Frost seed it now or wait and plant it traditional in a couple months...

Never really have figured out to do with my Euro mounts and have always just had them laying on the floor in the rooms where my mounts are. Today I put this together. Pretty easy actually, a nice piece of driftwood and some 4” wood screws at the right angles. Thought it was pretty good looking

Not for me but for this buck

My son Ryder has been my hunting buddy since he was 4, heading to the turkey blind whenever he could and he was finally able to get behind the gun this year. In previous years we had tried to shoot the gun but he was a little gun shy of the kick and we both agreed that he needed to wait until he...

Wasn’t sure if he ever showed up in Ames today. 6 in a row for the good guys!!!

I am an engineer so always like new gadgets. I have to admit most hunting gadgets are really gimmicky and I rarely say “wow that is actually a good idea” This arrow wrap is pretty cool. If you hit guts, the gut enzymes react with the wrap and Change the color, pretty cool and definitely...

Our Illinois farm has become quite the gladiator arena and I am hoping to get some thoughts on why. It has gotten so bad in the last few years that many of our good bucks end up busted up by the rut! I know fighting is part of the game, but I am talking really aggressive fighting from October...

I had posted my story on the "other" website during the server transfer and wanted to put it here to keep the Harvest Forum rolling. Keep the stories coming fellas, nothing better then coming hear and reading good harvest stories. My 2020 year started slow. Summer cams had only revealed 2...

There were 3 of you who posted in the Harvest Forum when the new website went live. That website is temporarily down, but I wanted to see if you would PM me here again with your info so I can get the gear shipped. thanks Kratz

Saw some pretty wicked storms blew thru east central Iowa. Looks like quite a bit of damage. Hope all of you are doing ok and had minimal damage.

Been continuing to fish about every nice night we have. Been a fun learning year on the largemouth, trying new baits and fishing styles. Caught several nice ones last night on a jerk bait, definitely a fun way to fish for them
