Jim Shockey’s Never-Ending Hunting Season

The only person who has hunted my Saskatchewan property for the last 2 years is my daughter Eva. Another reason I haven’t hunted Saskatchewan for deer in the last 2 years is that my dad passed away a couple of years ago, and I had hunted whitetails every year for 43 years with my dad. So, the last 2 years I've given my Saskatchewan deer property a time of silence, but things seem to be

God’s Plan for Me Has Been Bigger and Better than I Ever Imagined

I think one of the things missing in the outdoors is letting people with disabilities know that they're represented in the outdoor community, that the outdoor community very much wants them to be a part of the outdoor fraternity, and that there are many programs and hunting and fishing opportunities for them that they may not realize.

Red oaks will boost your ego with their fast growth, especially in the first few years of their life. This fast growth and resulting large canopy at a young age translates to them getting ahead of the competition, and heavy crops of acorns production when they are mature.

Ashlee Lundvall: My Passion for the Outdoors Doesn’t End When the Hunt Does

I'm also asked, “How did you get into hunting?” I guess I got into it backwards from how most people get into hunting. I had a good friend who was also in a wheelchair. He wanted to start a nonprofit organization and invite people with disabilities from all over the United States to come out to Wyoming and hunt. In 2008, we founded the Wyoming Disabled Hunters Association. I think the guys kind of wanted

Ashlee Lundvall: How I Redefined My Life to Participate in the Outdoors

I'm paralyzed from the waist down, but that hasn’t stopped me from hunting and fishing. Anytime I have to go over rugged terrain or creeks or up mountains, I use my Action TrackChair. This chair can stand me up, so I can fly fish or shoot standing up. With this chair, I can drive into water about 18-inches deep. If I have to make long casts, using the TrackChair makes fly fishing much easier, because

Trap and Remove Nest Predators and Use Controlled Burns to Increase Turkey Populations

One of the most effective management tools for increasing turkey populations is the trapping and removal of nest predators. Trapping skunks, armadillos, raccoons, possums and coyotes is a very-important tool of wild-turkey management. These nest predators can have a really-big effect on how many turkey poults survive the spring nesting season. So, we highly recommend late winter/early spring trapping specifically for nest predators just prior to when hens begin to nest.

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.
