I'll preface by saying that I didn't read any replies. All I wanted to say was that the difference between somebody that can go shoot an animal and an ethical hunter is the shot that isn't taken.
I've heard of game wardens spreading corn where they know a hunter will be in the morning and they'll wait for them to shoot a bird. The hunter didn't knowingly shoot over corn, but the angle the GW takes is that he should have been aware of his hunting area. I was told this directly from a...
Hell, antlers aren't even a fail safe identifier as doe have been known to grow antlers. I wonder if all states use the "antlerless" terminology for this reason? I haven't heard of any that don't anyway.
Well, look for nipples before you pull the trigger lol. Also, there are several ways to tell besides lifting the tail. The scent glands on the back legs of doe won't be super dark like a buck's I don't think?
"North America's oldest wildlife conservation group, the Boone and Crockett Club, defines "fair chase" as requiring hunted big game animals to be wild and free-ranging.[1] "Wild" refers to an animal that is naturally bred and lives in nature. "Free-ranging" means an animal that is not confined...
There will be another "mini rut" if you will. It's usually a few weeks after the peak rut ends. You can still find chasing and tending later in the season. So, where there are doe there will be bucks as well.
Spyderco delica 4 hands down. Comes sharp from the box, stays sharp, strong and lightweight, great steel and great scales. I plan on buying another one when our budget isn't quite so tight.

I read this the other day and it seems to hold a bit of weight. Who knows....they're mammals that operate on instinct. They're bound to do random crap occasionally lol
I use a .22 caliber to deer hunt 200 yds or less. I'm that confident in the round and the accuracy that I wouldn't hesitate to take a 175 yard shot with it. As for the 7.62, it shoots kinda like a rainbow but has a lot of energy behind the projectile. I don't think there are many naysayers of...
The 11 pointer I shot last weekend was done do by walking around the property with my wife. We nearly bumped into the damn thing head on. He stepped out of the thick woods sniffing around as we were walking toward him. We stop and she hands me the rifle and I put it right on the money. Was so...
No doubt about it that they are incredibly handy and worthwhile. I think they sure are pretty animals, I just am not the type to want to ride them lol. I would if I had to of course, but they are certainly not my first option.
I've been seeing lots of ducks on the water and some in the air in S. Oklahoma. I don't know if it's a normal amount or more or less as I am not a duck hunter.
