Lessons Learned the Hard Way: Part II

Lessons Learned the Hard Way: Part II

In the middle of a hunt, it’s easy to forget to ask whether the effort is worth the reward…but forgetting comes at a price.

Late Season Does

Late Season Does

If you struck out during the regular early season hunts, these late season antlerless hunts can be a great way to get outdoors and add some meat security till you get another opportunity to hunt the more sought after antlered game. If you start to get nervous when you can see the bottom of your freezer like I do, then this season can be a great safety blanket heading into the spring and summer months, and with the low cost of tags, the risk versus rewards are low.

Steel Shot

Steel Shot

For all of you waterfowl hunters born after 1992, the idea of steel shot is something you accept without hesitation. Reaching back ten more years would capture even more hunters still too young to remember.
