By -

I woke up this morning with the full
intention of going after pigs at a wallow, that is about 300 yards due
south of my house.

Buff's BlackWidow Bear
By -
Marty Thomas

When
a close friend of mine in Oklahoma said that if he had someone to go with
him he would make another trip to Ontario for bear, I jumped at the
chance to push him off the fence.

BEAR HUNT OF A LIFETIME
By - Tom Lagatol

We left for Canada on Saturday afternoon around 4:45pm. That would get us
up to our hunting camp a little early but in time to get settled and maybe
even a little rest before our first hunt. My bud, Rich Grannis is an
extraordinary hunter. We’ve been going on hunts together for about ten
years. It just seems that we bring each other good luck. It’s always an
enjoyable hunt, and we pretty much seem to be successful when hunting
together.

“It’s
The Little Things”
By - George D. Stout

I
was quite surprised by the appearance of the whitetail buck. I had just
entered the woods from the tram road and was ill-prepared for a meeting of
this type. He was not aware of my presence; on the contrary, he was busy
snuffling acorns and beechnuts from beneath the newly fallen leaves and
seemed oblivious to his surroundings. In all fairness, the wind was
blowing fairly briskly and covered many of the sounds that intruders would
normally make.

Wooden Bows
By - George Tsoukalas

Hunting with a
wooden bow is a time honored activity. For millennia, wooden bows
have been viable weapons. Silent and easy to carry, even today, hunters
continue to take game with finely crafted selfbows and backed bows.
Whisper quiet on release, a well tuned arrow will fly straight to the
mark.

Primary Feed Trees for High Percentage Hunts
By -
Warren H. Womack

Of all the methods that I have used to put deer inside bow range, without a doubt, primary feed trees have been the most productive. A feed tree is any tree that produces and drops hard or soft mast. The hard mast being acorns with the soft mast being honey locust beans, persimmons, apples, crab apples or other domestic fruits. This food supply is at its best during the early bow season but

Chasing Pigs in a Georgia River Swamp
By - Marty Thompson

With the cool, damp wind in our face we reminisced on past hunts shared. My hunting buddy and I go way back. We have been hunting and fishing together since junior high school, and have shared many memories of the furry and finny kind.
The boat ride was short, but long enough to make sure we were very awake before a face-to-face encounter with the swamp rooters we were chasing. The sun was quite high above the horizon already, since the tide charts determine our departure and return times to this marshy river swamp.
