    The custom turkey call guy... (Mastif)

    Is the custom turkey call guy that used to be on the QDMA site on here?

    Sounds like a day sit all day, Okie.

    Hunting Apps/software suggestions?

    I just downloaded "onX Hunt" a few weeks ago and it helped a lot on our public land KY trip because it puts topo lines on your aerial images. It also has a $15/year membership that gives you the ability to download maps for offline use and gives you full GIS (or plat) mapping for your chosen...

    Nice buck, John. Was that a buck you knew? Saying a prayer for your daughter, dogdoc.

    Great deer! Are you guys sponsored by Aeropostale? ;-)

    How does this weather look to you?

    Any time the temps drop starting in the morning, that's a day to be in the stand. That's pretty windy, though. If you're not in a typically windy area, I think deer will typically like to shield themselves from the chaos of that wind just a little bit by being in the lower topographical areas...

    Really fun MWW episode...

    I'm sure many of you watch Midwest Whitetail. I love the Great Plains and Heartland shows along with the main show. (I'll watch the others later on.) The Great Plains crew put together one of the most exciting episodes I've seen in a while this week...

    Advice for a "casual" hunter?

    I don't know where you are, but even in heavily hunted areas, my experience has been that public lands are pretty calm in bow season. Private is typically better, but not always. I hunt some out of state public that I would put up against most of the private ground in that area. As for bow...

    Age help please

    Looks 2.5 to me. The only thing that would make me think 3.5 is the way that shoulder goes into the body without any real definable difference. But neck into chest and gut into hips (what I can see of it) says 2.5.

    Advice for a "casual" hunter?

    Lots of good advice here. A couple of things that I'll add... 1. Someone said find a way to bring the hunting closer to home. If that's possible at all, that's a great piece of advice. Knock on doors for permission or find some public ground. Good public ground can really educate a guy about how...

    All day hunts... who does it?

    I usually do 2 or 3 at home and then hunt all day on my out of state rut trip every day. From 2009 to 2012 I killed 4 good bucks on all day sits. Now, two of those happened before 9 a.m. so that's not much of an all day sit, but it was intended to be. The other two happened at 12:30 and 1:15.

    Does anyone video there hunts?

    I do it. I haven't produced anything great yet, but I'm getting better. I try not to put too much pressure on great production. It's not going on the Outdoor Channel or anything. Setup: Sony Handicap HD with 30x Optical Zoom 3rd Arm Mini Pro (Always use the T-bolt. It's WAAAYYY better than the...

    Central Illinois Buck - Surprise at the end

    He's 4 or 5. Great buck! That rack is identical in frame, but he's put on quite a few inches in beam length, width, and a little in tine length.

    Cell Cam for Security

    We're wanting to get a camera for security over our sawmill. We want it to be a cell cam so we can know what's going on when it's going on. Looking for suggestions...
