Country Singer Craig Morgan’s Most Unusual Turkey Hunt

Highlighting one turkey hunt is like my trying to choose my favorite song of all the songs I’ve sung over my lifetime. I’m so eaten-up with turkey hunting that a bad hunt is a good one for me. I’m super grateful for having the ability to earn a living as an entertainer. My recreation is hunting. If God made me choose between the two, I’d have to pick hunting.

The Polar Bear Cooler's 5-layer air trap design, keeps ice for 24 hours in 100-plus degree heat. I was able to test the Polar Bear Backpack Cooler by putting 24 12-ounce cans and a bag of ice in it. I checked it 24 hours later and the ice was still there and drinks were cold.

County Singer Craig Morgan Enjoys Introducing Non-Hunters to the Outdoors

Don’t get me wrong, I really appreciate all the people in the outdoor media, but I also think bringing-in media people who don’t know what hunting is all about is very important too. I want these people to know why we do what we do as hunters, so they can have a better understanding of who hunters are, what we do, and why we enjoy hunting. I’ll bring in editors from “People Magazine,” the booking

The “One – Two Punch” puts Antlers on the Ground

What makes a situation seem real to you? If you can hear it, smell it, see it…the more senses we satisfy the more the situation seems real. It’s the same for whitetails. However, our number one affirmation comes from a different sense than your wily rival. For humans it’s our sense of sight that really sells us the reality of a circumstance. For whitetails, as you’ve probably guessed, it’s their sense of smell. Yet still,

Craig Morgan Takes a Big 10 Point Buck with a Rifle

Most of the people I hunt with I’ve hunted with before I had my TV show. Most of the people I hunt with don’t have hunting operations, they just have land where they allow me to hunt and film. I have a friend in Louisiana who invited me to hunt and said he’d been seeing a big buck that was a main-frame 8 point with split G2 tines that made this buck a 10 point.

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
