Josh Thompson Has Hunting as a Priority in His Life

I'm often asked, “Josh, what’s in the future for you?” I plan to do one more single from my current album, and I want to keep producing records, traveling the country and putting on shows for the folks who love Mossy Oak and country music. For me, becoming a member of the Mossy Oak Pro Staff is just an extension of my hunting heritage. I was fortunate enough to be raised in the country.

Josh Thompson: My Big Break Until Today

In 2012, I changed labels and signed with Show Dog Universal. I met Parrish Elliott, a Mossy Oak Pro Staffer, and went turkey and deer hunting with him a few times. Elliott introduced me to some of the other pro-staffers and people in the Mossy Oak family. Then, I met Toxey Haas, Tim Anderson and Ronnie “Cuz” Strickland. I felt right at home with the people who had been making my hunting clothes, since I

Josh Thompson Would Rather Sing and Hunt

Mossy Oak

In many areas deer won't come to crop fields or green plots until dusk or after dark. Or you may see deer leaving these agricultural areas just at daylight. So putting up a tree stand on the edge of a field may not pay buck dividends. You might need to pinpoint the trails the deer use to come and go and plan an ambush.

Levi Morgan: Tournament Archers and Bowhunters Are Adrenaline Junkies

The greatest feeling in the world happens to me when I have to shoot the last arrow in the World Championship and try to hit a spot on the target that’s about the size of a dime. That’s the most-satisfying feeling in the world. I also get that same feeling, when I'm bowhunting and a monster buck is coming in, and I have to pick the spot where I'm going to try and take him.

Levi Morgan: Stress Doesn’t Kill – It Helps You to Succeed

I know my tournament experience has made me a better bowhunter. For instance, when I’m down to shooting my last arrow in competition, and that arrow can possibly produce $50,000 for the win, that’s a lot more pressure than I face when I'm in the woods aiming at a big buck. So, tournament archery has helped me develop a way to control my emotions and my nerves. When that one shot can make the difference

Levi Morgan: Where His Love for Bowhunting Came from and Where He’s Going Now

Although I’ve had an extremely-successful career in tournament archery, most people don’t know where the love of archery came from for me. I was very fortunate that my dad, Mark Morgan, started me hunting when I was just a kid. When I was about 3, I can remember him dragging me through the woods, and I loved every minute of it. When I was 5-years old, Dad started taking me to archery tournaments - and

I'm often asked, “Levi, how long can you continue to win the Shooter of the Year title?” To be really honest, I don’t know.

But whether I do or whether I don’t is more up to the Good Lord than it is me. I want to walk away from

Chris Kirby Says If He’s Bored He Starts Calling

Let’s face it, sitting in a tree stand and not seeing any deer can really be boring and cause your mind to wander. Just because you don’t see or hear a deer doesn’t mean there’s not a deer in your area, so I fall back on my turkey-calling tactics. When turkeys aren’t gobbling, I start calling to them, and when there’s a turkey in the area, most of the time he’ll call back. When I

By Terry Madewell, originally published in the 1994 edition of Mossy Oak Bowhunting Magazine As big whitetail bucks are inclined to do, this one had done the unexpected. I'd studied this buck's pattern for a couple of weeks, being extremely careful not to leave any scent in the wrong places. I'd selected a stand site where the dense underbrush funneled into a 40-yard-wide strip. I was sure this was where he would walk and I

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.
