Brandon Scherff’s Biggest Buck

The biggest buck I ever took was a 7-pointer that would score in the high 130s or low 140s on Boone and Crockett. However, I've missed a lot of big deer with my bow. If I'm real honest and tell the truth, I still get buck fever. When a big buck is coming in, I get so nervous I hardly can pull my bow back. For some reason, when I get to full draw, my

Lisa Thompson Tells About Her Family of Four Elk Hunt

Going To School on Turkeys with Mike McGreevy

Growing up we didn’t have many turkeys here in New York. But as the flocks increased, I became very interested in wild turkeys, because I could hunt them in the spring when there wasn’t anything else to hunt.
