Two Big Bulls for Two Special Youngsters

I put on a hunt every year with the Hunt of a Lifetime. I'm the West Idaho chairman for the Hunt of a Lifetime organization. We take youngsters with life-threatening illnesses on their elk hunts of a lifetime. About 5-years ago, on one of these Hunt of a Lifetime hunts, my hunting partner, who had heard me give me that whiny estrous cow call, was with me. We were watching a herd of elk down

Three Shooter Bulls Nearby

In 2010 my son, Micah, was 2 months old when my wife, Kami, and I decided to go elk hunting together. We took Micah to elk hunting camp with us. We had set-up tree stands on trails. So, we traded off staying with Micah. One of us would hunt out of one of the stands in the morning, while the other one stayed with Micah. The one who stayed with Micah in the morning would

The fall can be a great time to look at how your season is going and make a checklist of things you would like to improve in the coming year. Call it a new year’s resolution for wildlife management purposes. Getting the areas that you plant in food plots or mast producing trees tested and properly amended with the recommended lime and fertilizer will be the best money you can spend.

Taking the Biggest Bull Elk 1-1/2 Miles from the Truck

I took my biggest bull elk in 2005 at 22 yards. Pope and Young scored the bull at 361-5/8. I was hunting on the last day of elk season in Idaho that year. I’d seen this bull on three different occasions when I was hunting with a friend, Rick Addison, who also lives in Emmett, Idaho. Rick never had seen this bull. I told him, “We have to go after the bull and try to

Hunt in the Field - Not on the Edge

Another place I like to set-up a ground blind is on the ends of the cornfield where the deer are coming out of the woods into the corn. By putting the blind two or three rows into the corn that’s still standing, I usually can get a 30 - 40 yard bow shot as the deer comes out of the woods into the corn. I've learned that the trails where the deer go into or

Kyle Meyer’s First Buck with a Bow

As I’ve mentioned earlier, I’ve been hunting with my dad since I was 4 years old. I’d watched him pass up little bucks and only harvest mature bucks. So, when I was old enough to hunt on my own, I adopted my dad’s philosophy. Dad didn’t harvest little bucks, and neither would I. All my friends and my dad’s friends would tell me, “You’re a little kid, so, go ahead and shoot a 1-1/2-year-old buck,”

Kyle Meyer Hunts for the Super Seven Buck

This 3-year-old buck that was living right behind my house - only about 500 yards from my back door – was what we called a management buck. He didn’t appear to have the potential to be more than a 7-pointer, but I named him the Super Seven. The buck was living in a 15-acre woodlot, surrounded by crop lands, with a river bottom coming out of it that meandered into another 20-acre woodlot.

Is Rocky Soil Holding Back Your Food Plot Success?

A common problem many guys have to work around in their food plots and wildlife openings is rocks. Having to cultivate soil that is heavily littered with rocks can cause multiple problems when it comes to managing a food plot. Besides it being outright difficult to create a good seed bed in rocky soil, the rocks can be really hard on equipment causing pre-mature wear and break downs.
