Big Buck Talk

So last weekend I think I did just about everything wrong that I could.  I had only one day to hunt and I think I must have lost my mind.
Friday night before going out the weather was crap.  Raining and windy, I listened to one of the guys in my group and decided to sit [...]

Another long weekend of hunting with little movement in the woods.  The only activity I am seeing is right away in the morning and in the last 30 minutes of the evening.  One of the guys in my party saw nothing all weekend while another saw only a couple of does.  Makes it tough to [...]

I spent this weekend hunting the mornings and evenings.  I sat in a new stand that I put up in the area where I shot my big buck last year.  There is an apple tree there that the deer are interested in.  My stand is about 20 yards from that tree.
The weather was mild with [...]

Sorry for the long break without writing.  Since I am just a whitetail hunter, the stories and experiences slow down a little in the summer months.  Then I have to remember to write.  So now I am back and ready to go.
Last year I became the Buckmaster in my group for the third time.  First [...]

The following is the story of a friend of mine named Kirby.  Great guy who loves hunting camp but could take or leave the hunting part.  Those are always the guys who end up shooting the big bucks.  Anyway, here is Kirby’s story of the biggest buck he has ever shot as told in his [...]

One of the leaders in our camp shot his nice buck.  Pete always tells a great story of his hunts.  Here it is:

Woke up to a cold, windy morning.  The smell of the neighbors’ dairy farm in the air.  I decided to hunt in my brother’s “cry for help” stand that morning.  Many of the [...]

Each year we have a little contest with some buddies of ours.  We call them the “enemy camp”.  The bet each year is simple.  The biggest deer takes the prize money.  The biggest deer shot in our camp this year was mine (see my previous blog post below).  We were feeling pretty good until the [...]

Here is the buck that I took at 8:15 AM on opening day.  What I learned from this hunt is that preparation is key.  I worked with a guy who know these woods like the back of his hand.  His help was extremely valuable in my success.  He suggested an area that I hunt in.  [...]
