Hank Parker Says that Mossy Oak Always Makes the Difference

When asked about a hunt when Mossy Oak has made the difference between my family having a full or an empty freezer. I can’t pick out just one hunt simply because there are too many to count. Most of the time when I’m hunting, one or two deer will look at me in the tree. When those deer don’t spook and can’t identify me as a human is a hunt made successful by Mossy Oak.
