My 2018 Solo Hunt

I just had a wonderful experience with nature yet I felt defeated. All of a sudden I saw movement. Something had spooked the doe herd and they had turned around and came back! I was blessed to experience the herd around me all over again.

Cyclops 700 Lumen Flashlight Review

I was pleasantly surprised at the brightness and I loved how light it was and that it did not take up much room in my pack. I highly recommend to anyone who hunts or just loves to be outdoors.

Good Things Come to Those Who Wait

Sometimes when you least expect something to happen is well... when it will happen. At least that's what happened to me and harvesting my first archery animal; but, for you to fully understand the story, we have to start from the beginning.

Mother/Daughter Turkey Hunt

Each year the San Diego Chapter of the National Wildlife Turkey Federation has a couple of opportunities for kids to pull for hunts on private land and we asked Abby if she would like to try for a hunt. She’s a lucky girl and her name was pulled for both opportunities! March 18th was her date and she was set to hunt on the Santa Ysabel preserve with a mentor from the NWTF and me. Only 20 people are allowed to hunt on this preserve each year and it is the kids on the Saturday and Sunday of this Mentored Youth Hunt so it’s a special deal. They close the hunt area to the public so it remains safe for all.

2017 Deer Season and a few Big Lessons

I haven’t always been a hunter; it wasn’t until I met my husband that I was even interested in it, even though I’ve always been a wild game eater. Now, 3 years in to being a huntress, I couldn’t imagine my life without hunting. There is nothing quite like spending a day out in the back country. Even though I have been hunting for 3 years, 2017 was my hardest year so far for deer hunting.

About 4 years ago when I came home from my freshman year of college, a similar experience happened but she came up with a recipe that would make any turkey taste delicious and it very simple to make.

Turkey Hunting; Gear List and Tips

Turkey hunting is so fun, and its delicious too. I have always hunted big game, but I found turkey hunting was really fun, not to mention its usually warmer, and a good way to add another hunt to your year. A few things I have learned is that no two hunts are exactly the same. Turkeys have nowhere to go and all day to get there, and just when you think you have them figured out, you don’t.

If You Hunt and Fish, Get Familiar with R3

Explaining it as marketing for the outdoor industry, R3 is an initiative geared towards recruiting, retaining, and reactivating (R3) participation in hunting. State wildlife agencies, conservation organizations, and similar groups have started to get on board too
