I have a favorite blanket. Don’t laugh. You probably do too. And if you don’t now, you once did. Deny it and I’ll just ask your momma, and she’ll show me picture after picture of you …
It was the last few days of the season, and this gobbler had outwitted me for days. He roosted in the same place nearly every night. Almost every morning he would let me know he was there. And …
About a month ago, I hunted this same area. I was able to take a big gobbler that morning. I had not been back since. So, I knew, after a month, I could go back and see if I could get another …
My preferred exercise is bike riding. One particular ride is short in distance but difficult in effort. Here I was climbing this hill, my legs hurting, my heart racing, and my Garmin watch …
That morning I had located what turned out to be four toms and some hens. They were still on the roost. And even though they had not been pressured, I made sure to do minimal and only light calling. …
The toms are gobbling all around. Their call is one of the most recognizable in all of nature. Whether one is a turkey hunter or not, everyone knows this familiar sound. And even though a tom turkey …
There’s nothing like barreling down the lake in the spring or summer at 5:00 in the morning. The cool mist will wake up anyone. But it’s not really the air that is alarming, it’s …
I’m pretty bummed right now. Turkey season remains closed in my home area for another week. That’s two weeks later than it used to be just a few years ago. For some reason, I thought it …
If one has been hunting or fishing long enough, he has a few stories that fit into the category of either questionable or unbelievable. In fact, those tales are so unbelievable …

As I look back on this last deer season, it seems that bad news could be the theme. I hunted hard but my effort only produced minimal results. If I had to compare the hours in the stand to my …
The last couple of months have only had a few nice days and hardly any nice ones in a row. This week has been different. March has started off warm and sunny even though a long period of rain is in …
I’ve noticed lately how the fishermen are getting amped up for the spring tournaments. A recent trip to my local bait shop confirmed my suspicions. There were brochures everywhere promoting …
It seems, years ago, I simply reacted when hunting season came. The preparation phase lasted only about a month. The reason was because I hunted area farms. Unlike many hardwoods’ areas, farmland …

Over the years of traveling, I have stayed in so many homes and hotels. So many, I can’t remember them all. I do remember one stint in Texas where I stayed in five different places, over a 16-day …
President Reagan was the best president until Trump came along and took on even worse problems that Reagan never had to deal with such as transgender issue, open borders, and more wars that were not …
