How did you guys do this year? No judgement. Farm raised, DIY, store bought, wild free range . . . As they lay, tailgate pics, all mounted up . . . Let’s see! Happy Holidays to all!
We hit northern WI last weekend and found a few birds. There were a few more leaves on the trees this year than last. Numbers seemed OK. Although I’d probably follow @TheGreek and head to MN and leave WI alone.
I had the gun jam and missed a pretty good opportunity. He flew off in to some...
With a little hard work and lots of luck, our group managed to draw tags. The bunch includes my Dad, my twelve year old son, and me. For us, this will be an OIL tag/hunt in every sense.
My Dad’s multiple sclerosis has taken a heavy toll and it will be the last opportunity he has to make...
Well guys. I’ve got a coon problem. One or more are getting after my peaches big time. My big live trap that has caught coons before is not working. The’ve pissed me off so bad with all their damage I’m now looking for any legal means of control, with a lethal option now on the table. I’d...
Well, the Wisconsin youth turkey season is this weekend. As I posted before, my eleven year old son graduated from hunter safety on Saturday. He was pretty proud and is getting excited to try and give one the business this weekend. Good luck to all the kids this weekend.
Well folks, the tickets are bought. We’re making this trip primarily because my Uncle has lived there for many years and my wife would like to go. So, we’ll be arriving in Anchorage very early on 7/4 and leaving late on 7/14. This is a OIL trip for our family. For those of you that live...
Well, I had started to write this up from the blind during season, but life happened and I never got much done. Now I’m sitting at a swim meet so I’ve got a good four hours to get this done. I’ll start back at the top.
Gun season here always opens the Saturday before thanksgiving. That...
Well guys, I finally pulled the proverbial trigger. I’ve know about this event for a number of years now and this year things have kind of lined up well enough for me to take the plunge. My son and I have signed up for the 22nd Annual Rabbit Hunt to “Cure MS”.
In the next week or so I’ll be...
Looking for your opinions. Near as I can tell, the mount is hung with top of the head close to level. The buck’s left side might be a shade higher than the right. I know what I think I’m seeing. What do you guys see. Let me know if you want more photos taken during the day time.

Due to life and lack of tags I haven’t spent as much time around here recently as I have in years prior. Checking back in a couple of weeks ago I was quite disappointed to hear about wllm and JLS moving on. @TOGIE inspired me to try and put up a good thread and it will be dedicated to those...
Glad they’re responding to the situation in the field. But here comes the creep!

Well, not sure if I’m posting this in the right place because I’m really kind of looking for some help from some friends - but here goes.
My family and I were stopped on the interstate for an accident up ahead. Somebody ended up plowing in to us going 80 mph. Now we’re dealing with the...
Well, I got a pass through on a great buck tonight. Unfortunately he ran across a property line, as is apt to happen in suburban environments. He tore off for 75 yards, stopped at the property line, and then disappeared down the hill. He only had to cover another 60 yards to get back on...
. . . field sobriety tests.
So this was going on in front of us while we were backing in to our pull off along the interstate @ 5 am. Anybody else need a new spot?
On a serious note, thanks to the boys in blue for catching and cuffing this loser.
Tried the blind last night and saw a couple. Tried a tree stand this morning for the first time. He was nervous at first but I assured him it would be OK. More to follow . . .
I’m a bit late, but I thought I’d post our 2021 turkey hunting recap. Both my kiddos tagged one during our youth season. My son’s second and my daughter’s first. We had access to some decent turkey ground but my Dad knew the neighboring land owner from little league baseball 60 years ago and...
Well, I just bought a new daily driver - 2020 Toyota Camry LE. I bought it with the extended warranty and I’m having buyer’s remorse on the warranty. Here are the details: bought the car for $22,500 all in (including tax, title, etc) and paid an additional $2,006 for an extended warranty from...
