From the EDITOR:
Why the GREED I ask.
As most of you know, it is hunting season. We work long and hard at establishing areas to hunt and harvest our fall game. We train our dogs and work them in the water. It is now hunting season, which to some seems to be a competition. Some of us are better than others at calling geese and some of us have better chances on getting birds because of the location we have permission to hunt. I have to ask myself though why the GREED?
When you can hear someone calling in the birds and actually can see they have them locked up, why do others feel the need to continue calling hard and try to steal the birds. Do we like it when others try to steal our flock? If someone has worked the flock, why can't we let them try to get them instead of stealing them. I just don't understand. Also the guys that as soon as the hunt is over are saying how the other guys down the creek can't shoot or those guys can't call at all. Do we really have to be so negative towards other hunters. Every hunter has to start somewhere and not everyone is a sharp shooter. These things come with time. I just don't get it. Hunting is our heritage.
Sharing the adventure is what it is about, the friendship that is shared inside the blind and the memories that are made. Please take some time to TEACH others the outdoors and not always be so GREEDY!
To you new hunters out there, don't let others discourage you. You will get it and when you do it will be very rewarding.
Happy Hunting!

Two Guys and Two Birds
Some of us hunt for years before having this kind of a morning.
Eric and Paul got 2 turkeys at almost the same time. Paul was on the left and had shot a tom with an 11.5" beard and Eric on the right had a 10.5" beard. These were both their first turkey's that they had ever shot. Good start eh.
Paul was shooting a Browning BPS 12 gauge with Remington Premier Magnum 3 inch #5 shot. Eric Tremblay was using a Remington 870 12 gauge with the same shells. He shot his out of the air at 35 yards.

Well the family and I took a nice little ride to some of our favorite spots looking for wildlife and to our surprise we seen 65 turkeys and 43 deer (3 monster bucks) all in different spots and from the warmth of our truck, the bucks still had their head gear.
So remember even in the coldest of days we can still enjoy the outdoors!
