My Biggest Bow Buck with Taylor Drury

Finally, that big buck came over the hill. Dad whispered, “That’s him. That’s your buck. That’s the deer we came to get.” As the buck came into the field and started walking toward the decoy, I was the most nervous and excited I ever had been, when I was hunting. We had so-many trail-camera pictures of this buck, and my dad had told me so much about him that I was really excited to be

My Biggest Gun Buck: 167 Boone & Crockett with Taylor Drury

When I was 15, I went hunting with my dad. Everyone who knows me understands that I hate to get-up and hunt deer in the morning. I’d rather sleep-in and hunt in the afternoon when normal people are up and awake. I love to sleep, and I’m not a morning person at all. On the night before this hunt, my dad had talked to me about going on a morning hunt the next morning. He

My First Bow Buck with Taylor Drury

When I was very little, Dad had started me off shooting with a plastic bow-and-arrow set. When he finally thought I was strong enough to pull a very-small compound bow, he got me my first bow. When I got older and could pull a compound bow and shoot an arrow fast enough to penetrate a deer, my dad took me hunting. I never will forget that first deer I took with a bow.

Love Thy Neighbor

Hunting season is a great time to run into neighbors, doing the same as you, enjoying the great outdoors. As long as you’re on good terms with your neighbor, it makes for an opportunity to tell them about your goals for your property and convince them into also improving their property, if they aren’t also already following sound Gamekeeper principals. Like-minded people can accomplish much more than one property owner trying to battle those around

How Much Land Do You Need for Taking Predators

Coyotes aren’t on small parcels of land every day and every night. Try to determine where the coyotes are, and what night they’re on the property, so you can hunt them the next day and have a reasonable chance of taking them.

Set Up Right to Take More Predators

When you start calling predators, especially in the East, you’ll see numbers of coons, gray foxes and red foxes. These predators feed on turkey eggs, quail eggs and ground-nesting game animals. If you remove a good number of these animals every year as well as coyotes, you can increase the numbers of turkeys, quail, song birds and upland birds on your property. Every now and then, you’ll get a bobcat.
