Out In The Open – Matt White

12, Mar 2010

Nine years ago I set foot into my first pasture with aspirations of finding a treasure.  The treasure was a shed antler.  That amazing thing that came into existence 8 months prior would hold my attention like a diamond would to a woman and still does to this day.  Shed antlers are the journals of whitetail deer.  They show the [...]

The Moment I Knew I Was a Goner for Whitetail Hunting

10, Mar 2010

Today I was driving to work and the new song by Kenny Chesney, “Ain’t Back Yet” came on the radio. The song talks about the key moments in his life that took him over the edge and changed his life forever.

“I heard a song ’bout a ramblin’ man
Bought a guitar and I started a band
I [...]

First Shed of the Season – It’s a Monster!

9, Mar 2010

I am both excited and embarassed to announce that tonight I found my first shed of the 2010 season! So yes, I am excited I finally found a shed, but I think I’m equally embarrassed by how long it took me to find one this year! But what I’ve lacked in quantity, I sure made up in [...]

How I Practiced With My Bow On The Couch!

4, Mar 2010

I sat home late tonight, drinking a cold beer and watching the newest White Knuckle Productions DVD, Ground Zero. As I watched the bucks cruising across the screen, I couldn’t help but want to get out in the woods and shoot a buck myself! Unfortunately the season is still a long ways out, but I’ve [...]

A Coyote Hunting Lesson – Learned the Hard Way

4, Mar 2010

As I rested my head against the trunk of a large oak this evening, I closed my eyes and tried to let all thoughts and stress just disappear. The breeze brushed my cheek and the corn stalks in front of me swayed back and forth. Everything was right in the world, until I heard a [...]

Pics From The Farm

25, Feb 2010

Here are a couple pics from the farm. I still haven’t been able to catch a Mr Big on film yet, lets hope he’s just camera shy. But I did snap a shot of a coyote the other day, at least now I know I’m calling to something out there. One of these days he’ll [...]

Trailcam Pics – 2/2/10 – Boneheads Are Still Walking!

2, Feb 2010

Just checked some new trailcams I set up on the edge of a popular soybean field on my property and I had a bunch of doe and one small buck show up on the cam. Glad that I’m still seeing bucks with their headgear, makes me feel a little better about not finding any sheds [...]

Possible Big Buck on the Trail Cam

19, Jan 2010

I recently checked one of the cameras I placed on my new farm and found one pic that has some potential. Awful picture, but it looks like this could be a nice buck, especially if he sticks around for next year! What do you guys think he is? From this one blurry shot, I’m guessing [...]
