Last night a buddy of mine tipped me off on an area near my home where he had seen some nice looking bucks a couple weeks back. He recommended I check it out myself and then look into getting access to farms in the area. So I jumped in the truck with my binocs and [...]

I am finally back from a long, exciting and exhausting vacation! My girlfriend and I headed south for the past 9 days to explore the great state of Tennessee from Nashville to Knoxville and all the way down to the Great Smoky Mountains. We began our journey in Nashville where we sampled, err, sampled quite [...]

Three More Months…

1, Jul 2010

Walking out into the cool crisp air this morning, I was suddenly transported forward through time to an early fall dawn. The dark, starry skies and the silence of my surroundings overwhelmed me and I felt a chill run down my spine. I could  feel it inching closer and closer, it’s now only three months [...]

Last week a buddy and I trekked back into the corn, trailcams in tow while being flocked by mosquitos like we were the last damn mammals on the planet. We raced in to my honey hole, trimmed out a tree and set up from camera overlooking a great travel corridor. I’m relieved to finally know [...]

I’m back from Iowa and the WKP Video School, and I had a blast. I learned a ton about filming hunts from Todd and the White Knuckle Productions team and also really enjoyed getting to meet more members of the crew. That being said, as great as the video school was, I can’t say the [...]

Saturday morning I’ll be joining the WKP crew and other avid hunter/filmers as we aim to learn a thing or two about documenting the incredible journey [...]

Persistence

2, May 2010

It’s 9:30 am on the 2nd of May and I am tired, sore and soaking wet. It’s the second weekend of my turkey hunting season and it’s the second weekend in a row that it’s poured rain almost non-stop. Yesterday the land owner thought I was crazy for heading out at 5:30 in the morning [...]

Ask any bowhunter to list the three things that he likes most about bowhunting and I would bet that one of the three would be sharing the experience with friends.  The problem with bowhunting is that staying invisible to the game’s eyes and ears is paramount to success and it’s just not that easy to [...]

Fine art had Michelangelo, basketball had Michael Jordan, southern cooking had Paula Dean and hunting television has Heartland Bowhunter Season 2. This season of HB is that good. I’m not talking the kind of good where you have a bite of pie and say, “Mmm, thats tasty.” I’m talking the kind of good where you [...]
