    East Frank church Elk

    Spent a week in there South of the Crags last year. Didn't see another person. With that being said, didn't see an animal with hooves on it either. Very little sign of anything. Some deer tracks and 2 sets of old elk tracks. That was it. Amazing place to check out if you're looking for...

    Trail Camera tactics?

    I run about 5-6 cams on my 60 acres. Spring and Summer I have them taking photo bursts on food mostly. 1 on my water source. Starting mid october or so, i'll switch a few cams to video and place them on scrapes and trails near bedding areas. You'd be amazed how many bucks you miss during...

    Food plots

    I'm a clover guy. I like to have a decent sized plot of good, quality clover. If you're in an ag area, it seems to fill in the times when the crops around you aren't ready for the deer. Ive never had any luck with turnips or brassicas. They just don't seem to hit them consistently.

    Bring Me Your Wisdom

    Just started going west again last year. Was going to need to get a tent for myself. Did some digging and stumbled on to the hot tent thing. Hunting partner and I decided to pick one up. Little extra weight was well worth it. Cimmaron and lite outdoors stove. Made the cold very tolerable...

    FNG from Wisconsin

    Have been a die hard whitetail guy for 25 years. Hunting Wisconsin and Canada every year. Finally decided to get back out west last year. Sold my land and between terrible winters and wolves, the deer in my Canada spot are in rough shape. Figure I'll be heading west every year for the next...

    Idaho Deer Unit 43

    Never saw anyone leaving with anything substantial. Watched a guy pile up a small forkhorn about 400 yards from camp. Its possible that deer committed suicide. Saw him couple times a day for a few days... kind of figured his time was short. Sounded like a warzone in there at last light of...

    Quilt Temp Ratings

    Just used a VIAM 10* quilt for the first time. Got down into low teens. It did way better than expected to be honest. Was layered up, but the only thing that got cold was my nose. Very impressed with it.

    Best Clothes for Deer Hunting in Illinois

    Treestand cold weather bang for the buck.... Cabelas Berber Fleece. Stuff is super warm and virtually silent. All I use in Wisconsin and Canada when its real cold. They discontinued some of it within last couple years. Just don't get within 100 yards of burrs. You won't be able to put your...
