Gordon's Brunswick Stew

I looked up Brunswick stew and found that the ingredients vary. But my research leads me to believe that authentic Brunswick stew contains one of the following meats: squirrel, rabbit or opossum. It's usually served in the summer and it’s a really thick meat stew with vegetables, because if it was thin it would be vegetable soup with meat. Beef, pork, chicken and other domestic meats are used by some today who wish not to

Hog Hunting in Alabama

In many places, hunters are trying their best to eliminate hogs. Despite their efforts, they're finding that feral hogs are much like coyotes and cockroaches: you can shoot as many as you care to, but you’re never completely rid of them. Today, we have hogs where I hunt in Clarke County, and we hunt hogs during deer season if we see them. We also hunt hogs aggressively after deer season. Alabama’s Department of Conservation and

Alabama’s Late Deer Season Changes the Hunt and the Hunter

Since Alabama has lengthened its deer season until February 10, hunters in south Alabama are seeing sights they’ve never seen previously. I’m seeing bucks 3-1/2 to 5-1/2-years old with their noses to the ground, trailing does and actively chasing them. I believe our south Alabama rut even may go past February 10. However, if the state legalized deer hunting past February 10, the deer hunters would interfere with the small game hunters, and the woods

February Deer Hunting Season in Alabama Produces Bigger Bucks

Up until the State of Alabama initiated a February deer hunting season, our deer hunting in south Alabama was destitute. Once deer season went out each year on January 31, I was just beginning to see pre-rut activity with scrapes and rubs starting to appear in south Alabama. The chasing of does I observed was only being participated in by 1-1/2 and 2-year-old bucks. We rarely if ever spotted bucks 3-5 years old in south

Puppy Training Quick Tips

When you get home with your puppy (hopefully not until the age of eight to ten weeks) the following DOs and DON’Ts should be put in practice immediately by you and all members of your family.

Late-Season Deer Rut Means February Deer Hunting in Alabama

In south Alabama, where I live and hunt, we have a deer season that extends into February. We’re also seeing some other southern states like Florida and Louisiana lengthening their deer seasons into February. The first Alabama counties to have a February deer season were primarily the south Alabama counties below Montgomery, which is in the central section of the state. Many of the people in south Alabama had been telling wildlife biologists that the

Ups and Downs of Being a Professional Hunter

Many sportsmen who watch our show and others on TV may think that every time we leave home, that the first day we get to where we’re hunting, we can take a big buck within 20-25 minutes after we arrive. But that idea is simply not true. I had to spend two weeks on two different trips to Saskatchewan in 2017 to harvest that 160-class buck.

Field Judging Black Bears

Ask any experienced hunter and they’ll tell you that black bears are among the most difficult big game animals to field judge. Part of that is because they’re far less common than deer, so hunters just don’t get much experience seeing them. And part is just the nature of the beast. Any large, black carnivorous animal will look big, especially if you don’t have something for scale nearby.
