Hunting with Drew Keeth and Honey Brake Lodge

Sometimes when I’m waterfowling, I really don’t want to shoot. I’d rather just watch. One of those times was the first time I went waterfowling at Honey Brake Lodge in central Louisiana. I saw 100 or more ducks lighting in the decoys, and I was so excited that I wanted to observe that spectacle as long as I could before the ducks started dropping, and the other ducks raced to get away from the lead

Samantha Wolfe’s British Lab Mossy and Waterfowl

Although my dog Mossy enjoys pheasant hunting, nothing flips her switch on more than going waterfowl hunting. She is such a water dog that I really have to stay on her to keep her out of the water when we’re duck hunting. Mossy was bred to be a retrieving dog. She retrieved her first duck when she was 6 months old. I didn’t really train her to be a retriever. She just saw the duck

Samantha Wolfe’s Philanthropy Work for Mossy Oak and Her British Lab Mossy

Here in North Dakota, we have numbers of youth programs and conservation programs offered that I help with, including the Pheasants Forever Banquets as a Mossy Oak representative.

Samantha Wolfe Becomes a Mossy Oak Pro and Loves Taxidermy

I'm really looking forward to starting my own business! I plan to start with mounting pheasants and deer, since those are two species that a lot of people in our area are having mounted. Then I plan to move into waterfowl and big game. When I get back from taxidermy school, my cousin said I could set up shop in his garage.

How to Find and Hunt Late Season Bucks

If you've always hung up your bow at the end of peak rut you don't know what you’re missing. Even in our northern latitudes, some years you may have rut activity that lasts through the month of December and even in to January. Even if all the does have been bred, ambushing a buck on his way to a food source to replenish the fat he lost during the rut is one of Mark and

The Rest of the Story of Samantha Wolfe’s Elk of a Lifetime

When the elk slowed down and kept walking toward us, I could tell that the bull I’d shot was hit because he was limping. When the bulls were at 250 yards, I shot my bull four more times, however, he never flinched. He didn’t move at all, and neither did the other two bulls with him. I thought I’d missed the bull completely.

Samantha Wolfe’s Elk of a Lifetime

You don’t have to name your dog Mossy to be part of the Mossy Oak family. You don’t have to have your senior high school project include using Mossy Oak logos.

Clint Lindemann’s Story of Friendship and Hunting

I believe that the friend who shot me took that accident much harder than I did. After the accident, the two of us have remained good friends. When he got married, he asked me to be a groomsman in his wedding. He was one of my hunting buddies before the accident, and he’s one of my hunting buddies today.

You Can Return to the Outdoors If You’ll Adapt, Overcome and Conquer

Last year I started shooting a shotgun and found a way to adapt it to my rifle mount. I hope to be able to take a pheasant or grouse this fall. The shotgun is primarily used to shoot moving targets like pheasant and grouse, and I'm able to move my shoulder enough to position the gun out in front of the bird and then pull the trigger. When I shoot the shotgun, it’s quite a

Clint Lindemann’s Hunting and Civic Involvement

By November 7, 2016, I had spent 16 days in a blind without having a shot. However, I’ve learned that patience and perseverance pay off, and on November 7th, I finally took a white-tailed buck. In our section of North Dakota, we primarily have whitetails, but further to the west lives good populations of mule deer. Since my accident, I’ve taken seven bucks with my crossbow and three does. In recent years, I’ve gotten a

Wile-E May Be Killing Your Deer

You would be hard pressed to find someone who doesn’t agree with the fact that; “Coyotes are plentiful and their numbers are increasing almost everywhere throughout our country.” Their population boom east of the Mississippi during the past 40 years is especially impressive. Other predator numbers are also up throughout most of the country. No one likes the idea of coyotes managing their wildlife for them. Luckily there are a few things we can do

Clint Lindemann Starts Hunting Again

For a couple of months after I was conscious, I couldn’t believe I’d never walk again. After 3 months in the hospital, I was allowed to go back home, where I continued physical therapy and occupational therapy for about another 6 months. I assumed my hunting career was over. But then when I was 18, I learned that there was an organization in North Dakota that took hunters with disabilities bowhunting.

Predator Hunting in January: Capitalizing on Cold Weather and Hungry Coyotes

By Heath Wood December marks a prime time for predator hunters as the cold temperatures of late fall transition into winter, pushing coyotes into a heightened state of activity.

Strategies For Hunting the "Second Rut"

Often, the first to mid-December, white-tailed does, and bucks go into what many hunters refer to as the second rut. Some hunters do not like to use the term second rut to describe the re-occurring breeding activities that occur during this time because the rutting activity is far different from that of the primary rut.
