    Pa. hunter's images stir Bigfoot debate

    I don't know what it is. I'm pretty skeptical and a cynic at heart. But I've got to be honest here. If that was my camera that I set up in my hunting spot...I think I'd be just a little bit spooked walking out of there after a couple of hours of hunting in the dark. I mean, what if a twig...

    Tree Stand Comparison thread just because I'm bored...

    Sitting here at work wishing I was hunting and decided I would give a little comaprison on the two tree stands that I own. Read it if you want to kill a few minutes, otherwise feel free to skip it. It's not going to change your life, I promise. The contenders: Lone Wolf Alpha Climber Tree...

    Game Camera Frustration

    I thought about that... ...but it's pretty close. No more than 12 or so yards. And I actually walked behind the scrape this morning and waved my arms for a few seconds and it took my picture...so I know it's working somehow. I'm really at a loss. Maybe I need to change the focus of this...

    Game Camera Frustration

    still frustrated went out this morning and had another pic taken according to the readout. The scrape I'm watching has been used and the pic shows absolutely nothing. Crap! Defective camera maybe? but it takes pics if I walk really slowly in front of it.

    Game Camera Frustration

    A friend gave me a StealthCam recently. It's an IR camera. Don't know the exact model number. I set it up in my backyard to test it out. Walked in front of the thing twice and both times it took a picture but when I look at them on my computer it triggered late both times. I'm actually half...

    Your absolutely best hunting tips that the magazines won't tell you about

    I agree on the camo thing, partly. Like most others here I've killed more than my fair share of deer over the years. Last year alone I took nine. (God bless the great state of Georgia for its high limits!) I hunt almost exclusively with a bow nowadays. The only exceptions being when I take my...

    Your absolutely best hunting tips that the magazines won't tell you about

    Okay, maybe the magazines will tell you about them, but I've come up with some great ideas that I haven't read about. Over the years I've owned just about every kind of hunting gear, gun, etc. that's known to man. But after years and years of that I've found that there are some little tips and...

    hunting in Africa

    thanks...I've done some more looking around and it doesn't look like it's going to be an option. I just can't find any info, which leads me to believe that there probably isn't any info. It was a good thought...:(

    Coyote Hunting

    Bagged this dandy with a my 45-70... ...while deer hunting. Almost 50 pounds. Biggest one I've seen to date. You can't tell from the picture but the exit hole is big enough to stick your head through.

    hunting in Africa

    Just found out I'm going to Ghana (West Africa) in about 2 months. I'll be there for a couple of weeks and it just hit me last night...why couldn't I stay there for a few extra days and hunt? Problems are: I can't find any info on hunting in Ghana, everything seems to be either south or...

    Please don't slam me for this...

    ...but I want to share this with you guys so bad I can't stand it! So in order to make it "firearms related" let's just say this guy probably deserves to be shot for having one of the funniest websites I've ever seen. Check out his "services". BWAHAHAHAHHAAHA...

    pics of coyotes?

    Anyone have a pic of a coyote you've shot? I live in SE GA and apparently there are a good number of them out here but I have yet to see one. What's the hide like on one? Is it something that'd be worth getting tanned? or is it more like shooting a big dog?

    skin your deer with a golf ball?!?

    okay I think I've got the idea down, but what happens when the hide gets down to the front legs? You split the hide down the inside of the back legs and down the belly, but if you stop there then I can only see the hide being peeled back to the top of the front legs and stopping

    skin your deer with a golf ball?!?

    I've heard a couple of guys talk about skinning a deer with a golf ball. I thought it was one of those 'snipe hunting' stories but another guy I know swears he saw it done once. Does anyone know about this? How in the world would it work?
