    NC Public Land Buck

    Hunted public land (NC) yesterday. I grunted, he came out of a thicket looking, and I shot him. For NC public, this is a really good buck. Around here, you drag a deer to your truck on public land, since ATVs aren't allowed, because, well, that's what you do. I was a mile back in a...

    Taking a kid to Church

    Does your son know how fortunate he is? Just go ahead and squeeze him through his freshman year, because he'll just draw another rediculous tag next year! ;) Great write up and beautiful photos!

    Flying to Hunt..Ship guns UPS or fly with them?

    Check the gun(s) on your flight. I wouldn't ship! Just follow the regs and you'll be fine, and will have the peace of mind knowing that you'll have them.

    Best Place to Set Up in Middle TN?

    That's a hard question to answer since most on here live and hunt 1500+ miles to your left. But I hunt in kinda similar terrain. I've taken my kids, now grown, on many successful public land youth hunts, and we have always favored hunting close to thickets that are bedding areas. Most of the...

    Help Needed! Glasses or Contacts??

    I mainly wear contacts, but I do have glasses that I always keep around. If I'm going to be hunting multiple days (camping), I will leave my contacts at home. Contacts take more maintenance than glasses, and glasses are easy to put on and off when in a tent. No need to have clean fingers to...

    How Do Y'all Do It!

    I just returned from an elk hunt in Montana, but had to go alone this year! Hunting partner was flooded out by Hurricane Florence and couldn't make it. The driving 2400 miles there and back wasn't too bad, had 5 bulls to come in between 52-100 yards, so it was a successful hunt, although no...

    Am I Dedicated, Stubborn, or Stupid

    Right now, he's about 50 miles from the eye, but still feeling the effects. Hoping everything stays intact at his home and no lose of power so we can head out maybe Sunday morning.

    Am I Dedicated, Stubborn, or Stupid

    With the constant changes in the predictions of the storm, it may very well not be as bad in his neighborhood...as of this hour anyway. This gives us a glimmer of hope! I don't want to leave without him, and he keeps telling me that he wouldn't blame me a bit if I did go ahead and leave. But...

    Am I Dedicated, Stubborn, or Stupid

    If there was a chance of him going I would absolutely wait, but, if he can't go within the next week, he's not going at all this year. I have three weeks off and my job is very flexible with vacation. Which leads me to like the idea of taking my time driving out, as mentioned above. I am very...
