Day 3: Mossy Oak’s Man at Super Bowl XLVII

“I like to bowhunt more than I do shotgun hunt,” says Sean Considine, Mossy Oak ProStaffer and safety for the Baltimore Ravens. “In my state, we can’t hunt with rifles. I’ve been shooting a Mathews bow for the last few years, because that company makes a great bow.” Since Considine also played football when he was young, he could get in more days hunting deer with a bow than he could with a shotgun. At

Day 2: Mossy Oak’s Man at Super Bowl XLVII

Sean Considine comes from a small town in Illinois, Byron, which has about 5,000 residents. He remembers that, “All we had to do for entertainment, when I was a youngster, was to be in the outdoors, hunting and fishing. All my school buddies and I hunted for raccoons, rabbits, white-tailed deer and gobbling turkeys. During the summer, we fished almost all summer long. Other than sports, hunting and fishing were our only recreation. My dad

Matt Morrett: Why I Plant Mossy Oak Food Plots for Late Season Buck Deer

Last year, after turkey season, we had some really-bad weather in my home state of Pennsylvania. I didn’t have the opportunity to plant any Mossy Oak BioLogic. This year, you can bet your last dollar I’ll be planting some of Mossy Oak’s BioLogic Winter Bulbs and Sugar Beets to better take advantage of Pennsylvania’s late-season bow-only deer season. Two of my best friends are Mark and Terry Drury. I met Mark in 1986, when we

I can’t begin to remember how many turkey hunts I’ve been a part of but it would surely have to be in the thousands. I have been blessed to call most of them “work related” which means I had no other thing to do for the whole day other than turkey hunt. Granted most of them have been while lugging a heavy camera and guiding another hunters but over the years that has become my

Mossy Oak’s Matt Morrett: Cool Down to Stay Warm for Late Season Deer Hunting

From this hunt, I learned that I will definitely plant the BioLogic Winter Bulbs and Sugar Beets product that contains turnips on my own properties, because I saw the deer coming to those turnips and digging down through the snow to get to them and eat them.

Taking "Shedding" To a Whole New Level

Whitetail bucks shed their antlers from late December through March. Soon many of us will be roaming the ridges scouring the forest floor for that “bone.” The exact time a buck drops will vary region to region, but finding these “cast-off crowns” has become in its own idiom a hunt in itself. You may have witnessed how various species of dogs can find contraband, people, drugs or your game birds with only a molecular whiff

Matt Morrett Says He’s the Total Mossy Oak Package to Hunt Deer in the Late Season

I like to bowhunt the late season, because most-other hunters have stopped hunting then, and hunting pressure is practically nonexistent. You can go on public-hunting areas during Pennsylvania’s late-season bow deer season and never see another pickup truck. Another advantage of hunting the late season is that the deer have to move more during daylight hours to find food and stay warm than they do earlier in the year.

Food For Thought

At 6’1 and 250 pounds I’m certainly not one to say what’s good for you and what’s not but I can promise you that many if not most of my fondest memories are centered around food.

Mossy Oak’s Matt Morrett Explains Why a Ground Blind Is Best For Hunting Late Season Bucks

I prefer to hunt from ground blinds at the end of the season. Today the temperature is 18 degrees in Pennsylvania, and when the weather is this cold, sitting really still is difficult. If you’re sitting in a tree stand, and the wind is blowing, even if you have-on warm clothing, you’ll fidget or shiver a little. But if you use a ground blind, the deer can’t see that movement. Too, a ground blind breaks

The Time To Lime is Now!

A question we are often asked is “When should I lime my food plots?” The answer is right now. Applying agricultural lime is a critical step in growing successful crops for wildlife. Most soil across the eastern half of the U.S. is fairly acidic by nature, and needs a good dose of ag lime to bring the state of the soil to a neutral or almost neutral level. Applying lime to food plots can present

Will's 2011 Tips for Bowhunting Whitetails

When I was just a little fellow, I liked to slip-up on squirrels and birds and shoot at them with my bow,” Will Primos remembers. “My first bow was a Wilson longbow, and I sometimes built my own arrows. I shot that bow off the side of my hand, because there were no rests in those days. Here are a few tips that will help you become a better bowhunter.

Big Bang, Little Bite

I often think that little boys just have a gene that makes them want to participate in every aspect of the hunt and the outdoors….its like a badge of honor…or more accurately a rite of passage that they begin claiming one hunt at a time. Girls are a little different.
