When I first started hunting, glassing and using my binoculars was something that I really didn’t pay a whole lot of attention to.  My thinking on using binoculars was that I would spot something with the naked eye and then use my glass to get a better look.  I actually tried to look through them […]

Besides being born in Albuquerque, NM and living there for about a year, I spent the first 8 years of my life living in Queens, NY.  Back then I couldn’t even tell you what a mountain looked like, let alone tell you what the biggest buck I had ever seen was.  Even though we lived […]

The sun has started to make it’s daily climb up above the mountains.  Your thoughts seem to be the loudest thing in the woods at the moment.  Silence is pushed to the side with the crunching of leaves not far away.  As fast as this sound comes, your heart starts to beat faster and faster. […]

My 2014 early archery deer/bear hunt started back in March.  This is when I went out to place a trail camera in a very promising spot that I had found the previous season in hopes of seeing what was moving through the area.  The spot did not disappoint, as I was greeted with thousands of […]

When one hears the term trophy hunter, what comes to mind?  Personally, when I hear the term, trophy hunter, I think of someone with a strict standard on the animal that they will or will not harvest, a person that is after big mature animals, or a hunter that holds out for an older animal […]
