I set mine up a day or two in advance. And stake it down so it doesn't blow away in the wind like a giant sail.

Based on this I am assuming you don't use a blind. You just sit on the ground in a full camo outfit, like a ghillie suit. I am a blind guy. I like how it allows me the freedom of some movement like drinking coffee or looking through binoculars. Plus if it rains, I stay dry. And I can sit in...

I don't waterfowl hunt anymore now but I'm sure I missed some of my ejected casings when I did. Most of them floated so I just picked them up. If you think hunters are slobs, go check out a lake in the winter time here that's full of ice fishermen. 10 times worse.

That's what I'd do too. Divide and conquer.

My dog would eat a 40 pound bag of dog food if she could. She found a dead cow in the field in December that the farmer had dumped a couple days before and refused to leave it until I walked over to her and pulled her away from it by the collar. All she wanted to do was eat more beef. lol

Haha. My dog would be dead if I let her eat all that she wanted to. Literally, there is no control.

I fill a small bucket with a cover and keep that in the back of my truck. I don't carry water while I'm actually hunting. My hunting spots are all less than an hour at a time, and I don't hunt in the heat or warmth of October anyways.

My dog is a bottomless pit. It doesn't matter if the food is cold, hot, wet, dry, or rotting. It goes down the gullet like a pelican inhaling fish.

He has gotten to be slightly more tolerable than he used to. If I'm not mistaken he had a stroke or a heart attack and then lost a lot of weight. I think that experience humbled him some. Too many johnsonvilles would be my guess. I do like that his shows are new every week. I tune out...

Get the frabill!!!

That's a nickname for the pen raised pheasants on this forum. Also known as pseudo-roosters. They look like pheasants, but they act more like domesticated poultry.

This steep decline in the Kansas turkey population has been brought up here before. Its too bad they couldn't see it coming and responded with lower bag limits/shortened seasons before it became a major issue. Obviously the pheasant population has been in a gradual decline for years because of...

I think as long as you are on the move and your feet are dry, they will stay warm. Whether the boot is insulated or uninsulated. Sitting while hunting is a completely different ball game. I use 400g insulated boots but mine are all-purpose. I use them for upland, turkey, and deer hunting. I...

Let's hear about it. Strategy, success, failure, photos, whatever. I know there's plenty of turkey hunters on this forum. I intend to hunt season B (shotgun) here in MN which starts on April 24. gobble gobble
