My Colorado Elk Hunt 2009

Last year, I went on my first hunt out west, and I decided to hunt for elk. I had a real good time, saw a pile of mule deer and a fair number of elk, and walked away with some new friends and a really cool experience under my belt. One thing's for sure... I don't think it will be my last elk hunt.

Florida Hog Hunting at its Best

This hunt, though a few years ago now, is one of my favorite memories. It crammed so much excitement into such a short time that it definitely stands out as one of my all-time favorites. Dashing and slogging through swamps, the air filled with barking and squealing, killing hogs with knife and spear, and even taking down a 230-pound behemoth with a SIG pistol.

Gore Optifade Concealment Camo and Sitka Gear Review


This past hunting season, I tried a selection of Sitka gear with the new digital Gore Optifade Concealment camo. Some of it worked great, some could have been better, but it was all of high quality. And I had some chances to take deer and hog at close range while wearing it, so Gore's new camo pattern (their first-ever) might even be as great as they claim. Check out this review to see what I think of this latest-and-greatest gear.

Glass and Brass For Bass Fishing
It may sound more like a home decorating tip than something you use for fishing, but glass and brass might help you catch more bass. Brass refers to brass sinkers and glass to glass beads when you use them on Carolina rigs. Give this set-up a try to make more noise with your Carolina rig and see if it helps you catch more bass.
