    Thought a caribou had moved on to my farm in NE GA...

    Been watching this one all summer long. Got a cool pic of him while he was trying to lick his back. Made him look like something from up Canada way.

    After 11 yrs of open canopy tractor…

    …finally stepped up to a cab tractor - JD 5085. No more swatting stinging creatures n such. A local guy got out of the hay business and was able to take advantage of a good deal on a well maintained low hour tractor. Pleased to report the AC n heater work just fine! Now I just need to find a...

    Pretty good day

    Yesterday afternoon, my son, Brooks, slipped behind the house at our new place and arrowed a nice buck with his Matthews. Shot the buck almost underneath his stand but managed to double lung. Buck jumped a couple of steps and stopped, looking around to apparently determine where the noise came...

    It’s been a while…

    After several misses over the past couple of years I finally connected this past weekend with my Black Widow PTF V - 48# using Gild Tip arrow and Badger single bevel broadhead. Surprised she didn’t travel more than 25 yds before crashing.

    Pretty cool reunion…

    …with the first bow that I ever owned. Bought this Shakespeare Cascade Wonderbow when I was 15. That would have been 1971. Never even loosed an arrow at a deer as I never saw a deer back then. Gave it to my then girlfriend’s brother a few years later. He ended up as my BIL. Got home a couple...

    First it was his co-existence with the wily coyote...Then Random Clusters

    Our resident mad scientist, dogghr, seems to be ahead of his time in the world of ecosystem management. He embraces his resident coyotes is such a way that would have made Leupold proud. Listened to a podcast yesterday featuring one of the country's foremost "experts" on coyote research that...

    The Agony of Defeat...

    No pics - Just a short story. Now into my 5th year of trad bow hunting, I had my first up close and personal encounter with 2 shooter bucks Friday afternoon. Pure adrenalin rush of the highest order. Had to watch first buck for 30ish minutes as he worked his way from a food plot about 90 yds...

    Doe factory???

    I remember a member on the old forum talking about having created a doe factory on his place. Think his screen name was Dipper. Well...after 10 years, I'm convinced we've done the same on our place. Food plots fill up with doe every afternoon with very few buck sightings as compared to...

    Why I no longer buy Guide Gear stands or sticks from SG

    Several years ago I bought a few climbing sticks and ladder stands from SG under their Guide Gear brand. Less than 5 years and here’s the integrity of the cheap steel used in their components. The climbing sticks were even worse with daylight showing thru the stick at the base. You get...

    When you know a changing of the guard is in the works...

    Random thoughts of reaching the 4th quarter in life... A couple of weeks ago I told my son that I was gonna go set a couple of ladder stands I recently purchased. His response..."I don't think I'd do that dad. Better wait on me to come down and help you". I'm getting that more and more these...

    In search of the perfect trad bow ladder stand...

    Last year I had the good fortune of having a well know trad bow hunter here in GA in his 70's down to my farm for a weekend hunt. He connected on a nice doe on his 2nd afternoon sit in a lock on stand that he hung earlier that afternoon overlooking a loaded persimmon tree. To my amazement, he...
