Joe Shults Harvested a 206-5/8 Buck Wearing Mossy Oak

Mossy Oak camouflage helped me take the biggest deer I'd ever taken. I was hunting in Breckinridge County, Kentucky, during the second rut. A standing soybean field was on one side of a small strip of woods 50-yards wide, and on the other side of the woods was a thick cover bedding area. We thought that the soybean field was probably the only food source still available for the deer during the late season. We

How and When Camouflage Helps

On October 1, 1993, I decided to open my sporting-goods store, Joe’s Sporting Goods. I sold Mossy Oak exclusively in my store, because the other brands of camo I had purchased weren’t selling. Today I still have the only sporting-goods store that sells hunting equipment in my town.

Reasons To Feed Late Season Whitetails

Hunters more than anybody realize how tough the late winter can be for whitetails. Deer in the upper Midwest, northern states, and Canada, can have massive amounts of snowfall to try and navigate through and are often forced to exert a lot of energy to find whatever food is available. Reliable food sources are few and far between and many deer consume a lot of low quality, hard to digest, woody brush in the late

Why I Leave Home To Hunt Whitetails

Today, I've hunted every province in Canada except British Columbia. I also hunt Tennessee, Georgia, North Carolina, Alabama, Oklahoma, Kansas, Iowa, Wisconsin, Wyoming, Montana, South Dakota and Colorado. I've taken elk, mule deer, whitetails, black bears and more wild hogs than I can count. I think about the only big game animal in North America that I haven’t hunted is the Shiras moose.

When Shults was out of work due to a factory closing, he hunted and fished often. He realized there wasn’t a sporting-goods store for miles from his home, so he opened one. Shults explains, “I've been wearing Mossy Oak since 1990.”

How Mike Miller Hides from Ducks

We have our boats painted and stenciled with the Mossy Oak Shadow Grass Blades pattern. When we put that natural vegetation on the blinds and push our boats up against the bank, the blinds look like maybe a pile of logs have gotten pushed-up against the bank that dirt has filled in between the logs. We even paint the seats that the hunters sit on with the Mossy Oak Shadow Grass Blade design. We’re able

Mike Miller Says Nebraska Offers Some Big Water Boat Blind Hunting

Most of our duck hunting is in Nebraska, because Nebraska is in the duck’s flyway. There's a lot of food there for ducks, and fewer waterfowl hunters in Nebraska than in Colorado. We also have a lot of big-water hunting in Nebraska and use some big-water boats we've converted into duck-hunting boats.

Mike Miller Tells about Doubling Down on Ducks and Geese

Ducks usually come down the river first, which means we often can get our limit of ducks before the geese start flying. Then, we take our limit of geese. We’ve usually shot numbers of shotgun shells, had a lot of fun and taken good numbers of geese and ducks for a morning hunt. Although we do most of our duck hunting in Nebraska, there's some outstanding duck and goose hunting also available in Colorado.

Food Plots and Feeders

Insufficient nutrition levels can lead to weight loss, poor conception rates, lower fawn recruitment, and increased vulnerability to disease…and where it counts too many gamekeepers - poor antler development and increased mortality rates. In areas where it is legal, it is wise to supplement your herd’s diet with a quality protein feed.

Mike Miller Remembers His Favorite Goose Hunts

I hunt ducks, geese, elk, mule deer and just about any other critter you can hunt, but I believe the Canada goose is one of my favorites to hunt. There are a group of us who hunt and scout together. We have permission to hunt some private land fields, and we've also leased some fields to hunt geese. All the people I hunt geese with start looking for geese right before the season arrives. Then
