It’s Worth the Wait
It’s Worth the Wait
By: Marc Drewek
It has always been my passion to travel and hunt as many places for Whitetail deer as possible. While searching the internet in 2000, I came across an outfitter out of Fairfield, Iowa. At that time I had no idea what caliber deer were in that state, I always thought of Iowa as a place to hunt Ring-necked Pheasants. Continue Reading
Put The Hunt back into Deer Hunting
Put The HUNT back into Deer Hunting
By: Rod Grimme
I started gun deer hunting in Wisconsin at age twelve in 1984. It was the most exciting time of the year. I looked forward to the oncoming season much like that of the coming of Christmas morning in my earlier years.

I slowly hang my rifle back onto the holder and I ease myself back down onto the seat of my stand and finish the last couple bites of my lunch. Continue Reading

It is snowing and there is a stiff twenty mile per hour wind blowing out of the northeast. Factoring in the wind chill, the temperature is minus…………well, too freaking cold to be sitting in a tree stand. Still, there is no place I would rather be right now. Continue Reading
