    the bear hunting seasons differ dramatically from county to county. give us some dates that u are coming in during bear season and if it jives with our seasons i might be able to get you in on a hunt. Have you considered deer hunting or do you just want to do something that'll pucker your tail...

    1st Coon hunt!

    Most people when they hear about it would assume the same but in fact the bear is very much alive. He is tied to a tree. In the past they used to let the dogs off the rope and treat him as the would but too many dogs were getting hurt and Peta people didnt think to highly of it. Now they tie...

    1st Coon hunt!

    well forgot one thing, coons aint bad eating either. You kinda have to treat them like you would neck bone or bear ribs. boil it down for several hours to get it tender and than throw some rice into the pot.

    1st Coon hunt!

    be careful with coon hunting now, if you get too wrapped up into it you can spend a small fortune in a hurry. A good broke male coon dog (if he's decorated, Night Champ, things like that) can cost your thousands. I would look for someone that has puppies off of a Grand night champ or something...

    Need help with a deer head

    Ill add a couple of pointers but Rembrandt and RockinU said it well. Skin out the head, remove the lower jaw bone and the last vertabre closest to the head then boil it as Rembrandt shows. I like to use a wire brush to aid in getting some of the meat of while boiling. As far as the brain goes...

    Give up after spooking deer on the way to blind?

    There is too many deer in NC to worry about bumping 3 or 4. And plus i'd rather sit it the woods seeing nothing than hear my old lady whining about me not folding clothes or taking the trash out, haha

    Giant Wolf in Gogama Ontario Canada

    I'm with caribou on this one. IMO i think its a real photo. However, judging the size of the dog is easy if you can judge the size of the man holding it. I think its a little fella holding the wolf but I still think he's well over 150 lbs. A good friend of mine killed one on a deer hunting...

    Groundhog hunting in the triad area of NC?

    I'm from more east of you guys i'm sure but I'm with you, i see a lot on the road up in that area. Its kinda of surprising because there really isnt a huge number of ground hogs in NC at all. If you can get into them though, its a blast. I hunted chucks in a town called North Java, NY. The...
