Don’t get me wrong, every weekend we were in the boat, camping, hunting and fishing as a family. But Monday-Friday we’d be out exploring on our own building forts, fishing, swimming. We played a lot of multi day capture the flag games. The public are we would play at had a stream that ran for...
My brothers and I spent a lot of time sauntering through the woods ourselves. Sometimes we’d spend three or four nights at a local public area in a row with just the clothes on our back and an old army surplus canteen for each of us.
Trust me it aggravates me to high hell when an 11 year old comes to my hunters safety class and they are talking about passing 140s because they need another year and they’ve most likely never shot a squirrel.

I’ve been thinking about using my Eskimo ice tent for a base camp. We usually put a tarp over our other tent so I don’t see any issues with that. I have an old friend who works for Cintas so I have a few floor runners I’ll put down on the floor. I think with the insulated sides and the diesel...
All three have an argument. If I was a voter I’d go for Messenbrink. He just dominates people all season long. Starrocci is a five time champion, but I don’t think the intent is a lifetime achievement award. Hendrickson had the big win fresh in our minds, but he doesn’t have the competition...
