Yesterday was quite the day. All day accumulation of snow. I was excited to see that would happen in the food plot. Usually when we get snow all the deer disappear for the year. I thought about going hunting but decided to stay out of the plot. I would just watch from the house. All…
We are now 2/3 of the way through hunting season. The rut has come and gone. My mind is starting to drift from big bucks to fishing. My favorite time to deer hunt is now over. However, I still have a little bit more hunting to do and a couple tags in my pocket. I…
Every year hunters hit the woods in search of the elusive whitetail. Some will succeed at killing; other will never get an opportunity. The hunters that don’t succeed then look for an answer or somebody else to blame. However, is there anyone else to blame but possibly yourself? I believe the key to great hunt…
After last season ended, I started out scouting immediately. I had a plan. Scout as much as I could before summer. Set cameras and find out if big bucks existed on this piece of state land. Set stands as early as possible. Kill a big buck! These woods are so thick and dense I knew…
For the past couple years, I have really been studying the whitetails. I have been reading, listening to podcasts and paying attention in the outdoors. I put in many hours of scouting the past couple years. The number one way of being successful in my opinion is location. To learn more about why location is…
Took a break but I needed to hunt. Winds are screwing me this year for southern Michigan. Pretty hot out! Sat next to the house hoping for a doe. Deer were already in the fall plot. Right at dusk a deer came out into the plot. Then 4 more came out but to far away…
Been seeing bucks in our food plot pretty consistently. This buck I call whity and tall boy have been duking it out a lot. They sparred for 10 minutes tonight. It was like 2 brothers fighting. They would stop for a second. Then the last winner would antagonize the other buck and they would start…
Every year I like to look back through my social media and remember the year I have had. Last year I joined Instagram and have loved being on the site. Instagram is a great tool to keep track of my adventures during the year. I take a lot of pictures but it always seems like…
We are 8 days away from the end of the Michigan deer season. Where the heck did it go? We worked hard all spring and summer only for the fall to go flying by. If you have been following my blog the past month, you have read about my stories and encounters. I have had…
Have you ever come across an old blind or old wooden ladder stand in the woods? Have you ever sat in the blind knowing that the person who built it probably does not use it anymore? Maybe the person passed or gave up on hunting it and did not want to take it down. Have…
