When The Going Gets Tough, Keep On Going – Big Buck Down for Brandon Hirsch

15, Dec 2011

Here’s a great big buck story, with a terrific message as well. Perseverance is the name of the game when it comes to chasing mature whitetails, and Brandon Hirsch of BMG Outdoors certainly learned that this year. Congrats on the great buck Brandon! – MK “My 2011 Wisconsin bow season started off less thrilling than [...]

Late November Giants Down for Mark and Terry Drury

13, Dec 2011

As the Drury’s often do, both Mark and Terry both put the smack down on late season bucks at the end of November this year. Terry kicked things off on November 27 with a well placed 30 yard shot with his PSE on this dandy Missouri whitetail. He’s a truly mature deer, and according to [...]

A Couple New Faces In Town – Possibly Shooters?

12, Dec 2011

  This weekend I headed to the back part of my property for the first time since November 8th. This is, what I consider, my best spot on my farm and I had wanted to keep it as low pressure as possible until after gun season. Finally with the wind and weather right, I headed [...]

Big Buck Success At The Baer’s Den in 2011

12, Dec 2011

Second to my own family deer camp in Northern Michigan, there is no place I’d rather spend time during the hunting season than in South Western Pennsylvania at The Baer’s Den. The Baer’s Den is my uncle’s family camp and I’ve had the pleasure to join him and his family and friends several times now [...]

Here’s a terrific story from my friend Chad Searcey and Jordan Mathes of Reality Driven Pursuits, a great hunting web show. I had the opportunity to head out to Nebraska and hunt with Chad last year, and had a blast (You can see video from that hunt here). This year the RDP team has had [...]

Last Day IL Buck for Skyler Wirsig on the Campbell Outdoor Challenge

7, Dec 2011

I met Skyler Wirsig for the first time this summer at the Heartland Bowhunter Film School and after having a good long chat, I immediately walked away thinking that he was a real good guy. So when I saw the bucks that Skyler’s racked up so far this year, I was particularly happy for him. [...]

Could Six Shooter Be Back?

6, Dec 2011

While not the biggest buck I’ve seen down here in Michigan, the deer I call “Six Shooter” has certainly been the animal haunting my dreams most frequently. With four close encounters so far this season, 6+ hours spent watching him, and many trail camera pictures taken I’ve developed quite a history with this buck. But [...]

Giant First Bow Buck for Jack Janning of Iowa

5, Dec 2011

Here’s a first bow kill that will make most seasoned hunters pretty darn jealous. In fact, I know plenty of hunters that will go a lifetime without ever seeing a buck like this one. So I’d say that Jack Janning is off to a pretty good start with the ole stick and string. Big congrats [...]

Nothing But Disappointment At The End of the Blood Trail

2, Dec 2011

I’m sitting here tonight, tapping slowly away at the keyboard, stuggling to find the right words for how I feel. I hate to start using words like frustrated, disappointed, or depressed again. I thought I was over that earlier in November. But here I am again, feeling all of those dreaded emotions. But lets rewind… [...]
