| 2011-12-05 By:Annonymous | Black Bear HuntingBlack bears can be attracted to the smell of rotting meat, but actually prefer fresher kills and when happening upon an animal carcass, will sometimes eat only the freshest parts. If you are baiting for bears, freshen the bait barrel often to keep the bears returning. |
| 2011-07-13 By:Waterfowler | Canada Goose HuntingMake sure you are well equipped and well practiced with your goose calls before you start blowing them this fall. Poor callers mess up more shooting opportunities than dogs running around in the decoy spread. If you cant call, dont. Oh ya, and dont blow a snow goose call and expect the big Canadas to turn. They only react to their own kind. |
| 2011-07-12 By:Waterfowler | Duck HuntingWith high water levels expected this fall, ducks will have numerous bodies of water to go to. To improve your hunting parties chance for success, split up your group on two neighboring ponds or sloughs and try to catch them bouncing in between. If the ducks get shot off one pond, they will usually look for the next closest body of water. |
| 2011-07-12 By:Buckhunter | Whitetail Deer HuntingThe best whitetail hunting asset you have is your knowledge of the area. Spend some time scouting during pre-rut time to learn the movement patterns of the deer and to learn where the bucks are. When the season opens, your chances will be improved. |
| 2011-04-04 By:Annonymous | Caribou HuntingSo this is the obvious one, to hunt Caribou you need to be way up north, in the Canadian arctic. So, bring more clothes than you can possible imagine, it's the friggin arctic! Just when you think a nice day is happening, the north west wind bring in a cold blast. If you are caught out on the tundra, unprepared, you'll turn into a popsicle. Oh yeah, and bring a gun with a flat trajectory. There's a lot of open space when you are hunting Caribou and the shots can get long. |
| 2010-08-30 By:Annonymous | Canada Goose HuntingIf you plan to pass shoot geese, make sure you have a plan and you have scouted the area first. If you are familiar with the major bird holding water holes and where they have been feeding in large numbers, then you have some pretty good information to work with. Make sure you spread out 100 yards apart or more, accross the flight path of the birds, That way someone will have a shot and you stay safe from each other. Often birds will flare to the side on the first shot giving another hunter a shot down the line. |
| 2010-08-27 By:Woodsman | Whitetail Deer HuntingAfter you have selected a likely spot for big bucks, plan your placement of treestands carefully. When hanging treestands, choose trees which are wider than your own body to help hide your silhouette. Also, if you have two, place them on opposite sides of where you expect the deer so that you can adjust to different wind directions. |
| 2010-08-24 By:Woodsman | Duck HuntingIn late season, ducks will travel in smaller groups. Set up your decoys in smaller groups, 8 to 10 in a group. Set the groups 25 to 50 feet apart. If your are hunting ducks near water, make sure you have some floaters out on the water. |
| 2010-07-03 By:Annonymous | Whitetail Deer HuntingWhitetail bucks are more cautious in the early season. Once the rut is in full swing, they are less attentive and more interested in chasing does. This may be your time to knock down the best buck. Watch the does late in the season as the bucks will not be far behind. |
| 2010-06-28 By:Annonymous | Black Bear HuntingBlack Bears are very cautious creatures. Any unusual sound or scent will enough to keep them away from an area. When you are setting up your bait barrels, leave as little human scent behind as possible. |
| 2010-06-24 By:Annonymous | Snow Goose HuntingSnow Geese return in the morning to the field they fed in the previous night. go out and drive the field (spotting) in the late afternoon / early evening to see what fields and where in the fields they are feeding and if possible what water body they will be roosting in overnight. Set up the next morning near the spot they were feeding. |
| 2010-06-24 By:Annonymous | Canada Goose HuntingCanadian Geese normally head to the fields twice a day to feed in the fall. Between sunrise and mid morning all the Canada's will have left the water to find food, returning to the water for midday. By early to mid-afternoon, they will head out to the fields again until shortly before dark. |
| 2010-06-24 By:Annonymous | Canada Goose HuntingIf you are planning on back shooting geese, the best time is about one hour before sunset when they are beginning to arrive back from the fields. Pick a location close to the water line and in a direct path with the fields where they are feeding. |
| 2010-06-24 By:Annonymous | Duck HuntingThe first birds to arrive to your early morning decoy spread will be ducks. Get ready for them with duck loads in your shot gun instead of goose loads. Keep your #2 and BBB handy for when the geese come later. |
