    Covid Altering Bear Behavior?

    Anything that increases bear/human interactions is going to affect bear behavior. Nothing mystical about it

    Hunting Doe

    Whitetail does are the vast majority of what we shoot. Mostly yearlings that haven’t ever been bred, or mature does without fawns. I won’t kill a young buck, and since mature bucks are a rarity around here, does fill the freezer. If numbers ever declined badly, I guess I probably wouldn’t...

    Sandhills

    I probably see a thousand trumpeters every fall around here. They’re so plentiful at times, it can make hunting other waterfowl difficult. I have to remind my kids to watch their shots so there’s no collateral damage

    How did everyone's hunt go this year is it what you expected and are you going to change your plans for next year?

    Crummy season all around. Went to Nebraska turkey hunting and didn’t even buy a license. Scouted for a day and turned around and drove home. We did get our birds at home, though. No out of state big game hunts. Bow hunted hard at home and never saw a buck I’d want to kill. We shot 3 does...

    Your Best White Tail Buck...

    this is my best, and it’s embarrassing, given the extreme effort I’ve invested to kill a big whitetail. I’m committed to doing it only with a bow. I’ve spent over 300 hours in a stand many seasons, hunted numerous states and Canada, but it just never came together. The main obstacle is that...

    Successful hunt yesterday

    I just rub them with a little salt and pepper and cook for 1 1/2-2 hours at 300-325. I’ve been toying with the idea of brining them first. They get crispy skin and great flavor on the pit boss

    Successful hunt yesterday

    All have been plucked, and will be cooked whole at 325* on the pit boss smoker. In my opinion the very best way to eat duck

    Successful hunt yesterday

    My youngest son and I went out in the canoe jump shooting, and had a good day. One bird short of our limits, but 2 big northern mallards and a banded teal

    Michigan Bear hunting adventure

    Don’t know if it’s been mentioned yet, but I’d talk to the local garbage collectors. They will know where every nuisance bear is in your area. Easy to get permission to hunt problem bears, and you don’t need to bait as heavily

    What pistol?

    Outside of the black bear rut, I don’t have any concerns about being attacked by them or mountain lions. If I were, I’d probably carry a 357 or 44. I know they aren’t the most powerful, but a lot lighter than the big hand cannons
