Most people don’t think of California as a hunting destination or a Mecca for elk. But out here we have Tule elk to the south, Roosevelt elk to the south and Rocky Mountain elk in Redding, California, where we’re based. One of the problems of hunting elk in California is that you can’t buy tags over the counter.

Part 3: Becoming A ProStaffer

The way our staff works is we look for certain areas of the country that need someone to help promote in stores and at events. I get applications all the time, and sometimes we just don't need any help in those areas because the positions are filled. It does not mean you are not qualified. I always contact my applicants and tell them either way.

ProStaffer Parrey Cremeans Hunts California Rios

Hunting Rio Grande turkeys in northern California is different from hunting them in Texas or Oklahoma. Hunting Rio Grande turkeys out here in California is more difficult than Eastern hunters think, mainly because you have to scout so much more to take them. Our gobblers stay henned-up throughout much of the turkey season and move in large flocks.

Productive Poult Protection

Enhancing brood habitat for ground-nesting birds by creating “brood strips” to enhance native plant growth can improve food availability for wild turkey poults and bobwhite quail chicks, and increase survival during the critical first few weeks of life. Good wild turkey and quail populations depend on it, and quality hunting depends on good reproduction.

We all know there are many options for preparing a dove field. Wheat and millets, such as brown top, Japanese, proso, and foxtail, are common choices in this area. But my recommendation for a successful dove field is a sunflower field. At Prairie Wildlife, sunflower fields have resulted in better hunts than millet-planted fields. On our “opening hunt” in September, bird-limits were common among participants. Here are some ideas for your next dove field.

Hog Trapping: Both an Art and a Skill

What some call skill, others call an art form. Because of the fact that wild hogs are adaptable to almost any climate and can live a day’s walk away from a water source, the odds of the wild hog winning the battle are high.
