    Buying Land???

    Most of the property timber is 13 year old aspen. There are 6 acres of burr oak. I talked to my buddy who is a forester and he says to wait 7-12 years and start to cut sections of aspen to create different age groups.

    Buying Land???

    This land is 25 minutes from my house. I will check out the land around it to make sure we are all on the same page. As far as out west hunts, I get that 100%. As of now, the hunts out west will continue. A lot to think about.

    Buying Land???

    My wife and I are starting the process of buying land. I found an 80 that I got permission to walk this weekend. As a deer hunter, I know to look for sign (trails, rubs, scrapes and tracks). Is there anything else to look for? The goal is to have a decent deer hunting spot for future years...

    Vortex Viper Spotter and Tripod set up???

    I have Vortex Viper 20-60x85 and a cheap tripod. When I tried using it last year, I really struggled due to the tripod. I was even at the point of selling it due to it being so hard to see through. I will it mostly from the truck for antelope out west and turkey/deer in WI. I'm looking at a...

    Less than 50 days away...Black Hills!!!

    Of the 10-12 bucks we saw in town that we said were nice, they all looked simular. Again, they are nice mature deer but very simular in antler growth.

    Less than 50 days away...Black Hills!!!

    Here are the bucks. One thing that we learned was that the bucks in the hills are all very simular. We called them cookie cutter bucks. Back home bucks vary so much as far as tine lenght, width, points and brow tines. It was a very enjoyable hunt.
