I'm not against technology but the charm of "primitive" weapons disappears with technological advancements. Muzzleloader season should just become single shot rifle season because today's muzzleloaders have become another type of modern rifle. The old recurves shooting cedar arrows have be...

A few years ago, I visited one of the WW2 cemeteries in France. Row after row of white stones bearing a name and a star of David or a cross, perfectly maintained and manicured by the French people. I can't describe the impression it makes but if you've been there, you know what I mean.

Congratulations! If you find the right person, it's automatic to stay together. In a few weeks my wife and I will celebrate our 43rd. I can't believe how quickly those years have passed.

Thank you. They need and deserve our support.

Impressive! I'm glad that I can just buy a crossbow and go hunting. If I had to assemble one from various parts from different bows, I'd be lost and frustrated. You have knowledge and ability far beyond mine.

Nice job and great pictures!

Congratulations to both of you! You should be proud for teaching her well and she should be proud for executing what you taught her so successfully. Enjoy the turkey meat.

Beautiful fish! My turkey hunting isn't working out, but I have been catching some fish too. My wife and I had a delicious fresh walleye dinner last night.

When I was a kid growing up in East Texas you would see these by the hundreds. I always thought they were a very colorful bird. They always showed up in the fall. Migration, I guess. Then they stopped. I learned later on that they were called Cedar Wax Wings. Don't ask me why they are called that, ...

A belated Happy Birthday AJ. Keep putting up the interesting posts!

I was turkey hunting Tuesday morning (didn't have a gobbler within calling distance) when I heard a whippoorwill call twice. I thought I was hearing things. 20 years ago, there so many of them that it was hard to hear a turkey in the pre-dawn hours of a spring morning. Rather quickly, they have disa...

I really enjoyed both videos! Congratulations to both of you. We used to have a lot of birds like that a few years ago. They have gotten much scarcer. I hunted last Monday and Tuesday and didn't have a gobbler close enough to work on either of those cold, windy mornings. There were three strutting g...

Nice fish and nice job! This is why I am not a fan of pike. They always cost me some blood!

I'm curious as to what went wrong with the 410 and TSS rounds. The reviews I've read on line, all make that combination look to be excellent. I recently bought (or rather paid for - it hasn't come in yet) a 20 ga. Savage model 301 with the factory turkey choke, along with a box of Federal 7/9 TSS sh...

I'm no expert, but I agree with the opinion that Black Eagle Executioners and Zombies are easier to customize than the factory arrows that come with Excals. When you buy more arrows, consider making them Black Eagles. That said, why not move up to 150 gr. slicktricks with your factory arrows, sight ...
