Matt Drury of Drury Outdoors Explains How Mossy Oak Makes Hunters Invisible and Helps Others

From the very beginning, Uncle Mark and Dad understood that two people sitting in two different tree stands, during the fall and winter, wasn’t what deer saw normally. So, it became very apparent to them that good camouflage would make a big difference in the number of deer they were able to take, and the number of videos they could produced.

Matt Drury of Drury Outdoors Explains How a Video Gets from the Field to Your TV Set

Every year, we have a spring meeting with our team members and review all the policies, procedures and technical aspects of producing the kind of video we need for our TV shows and videos. We understand that these team members are hunting wild animals, and that wild deer don’t always stop where they’re supposed to - in a clearing or within range - and they don’t read scripts. However, we try and get the best

Matt Drury on How to Become a Drury Outdoors’ Professional Hunter and Videographer

The first thing I always ask for from potential pro staffers for Drury Outdoors is a video resume of hunts they have filmed, because this is the most-important part of what our business is. I’m sure there are great hunters out there who take really-big whitetails every year and turkeys and capture those hunts on video. But remember, to get good video, you have to have two hunters set-up in tree stands with all their

“The Boss” Matt Drury on Drury Outdoors

Based on the stories I’ve heard, Uncle Mark came to my dad in about 1988, when Uncle Mark was a rep for Mossy Oak and on the national turkey-calling circuit at that same time. He told my dad, “I’m seeing a few turkey videos in sporting-good stores and other places where Mossy Oak is sold. I’ve looked at some of them, and I know we can make and sell better videos than some of the

Eva Shockey Loves Elk Hunting and Wants to Go As Often As Possible

Another of my favorite hunts was when I went elk hunting with my dad during the rut in Colorado – the first elk hunt I’d ever had. Since my dad doesn’t do much elk hunting, going on this elk hunt with him was a big deal. We went to a friend’s ranch in Colorado, and he told us, “There are elk bugling everywhere. You should see a lot of them, when you get here.” But

Food Plots in the Land of Plenty

Eva Shockey and Her Unbelievable Moose Hunt

One of my most-exciting hunts was a moose hunt in the Yukon. I usually go to our moose-hunting area in September, and that’s where I was hunting this past year. Moose are unbelievably large beautiful animals. I really like to hunt them, when they are in the rut, because you can call them in to within bow or gun range.

Eva Shockey - Hunting When the Weather’s Hot

Because my dad and I hunt in Saskatchewan quite a bit, some people may not be aware that we also hunt all over the world, under all types of weather conditions. This past year, I hunted in New Zealand and Australia, and we often go to Africa. We do quite a bit of hot-weather hunting each year.

Eva Shockey - More Than a One Dimensional Hunter

When I decided that girly-girls could go hunting and not only enjoy the hunt but enjoy taking animals, I wanted to learn to hunt with as many types of weapons as my dad used – guns, bows and black powder. My favorite gun to hunt with is a Thompson/Center break action .270. I’ve shot some really-huge animals with this gun. Depending on what we’re hunting, I’ll be shooting either a .270 or a .300 Win

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.
