Today’s PrimaLoft-filled puffy-style jackets are the ultimate western hunting garment. Here’s why.

Often from late March through the first week and a half of April, turkeys will still be in wintertime flocks. Love is on their mind for sure, but often after flying down, toms will follow a wad of hens to their morning breakfast location.

Typically, stick-and-string goers get the first crack at springtime noisemakers in most states. Archery-only seasons give bowhunters a chance to hit the woods, often for several weeks, before loud booms start filling the woods. 

I had a 2022 love affair with a pair of Hoyt bows, and when you fall in love, it’s hard to make the change. Hoyt’s new VTM 31 made switching worth it.

Too much gun? What does it mean? Simple. It means shooting a firearm, any firearm, that isn’t enjoyable to shoot because it abuses the body in one way or another.

Many hunters considered the 16-gauge a near-perfect gauge and it’s making a comeback.

Injuries and health issues are a part of life, and I know I’m not the first hunter to suffer an injury less than a month out.

Sadly, bad things can happen on hunts, especially when roaming the backcountry.

I’ve been addicted to archery pronghorn hunting for 25 years, and my favorite method is duping a buck with a decoy.
