    How are you getting deer in your truck when solo?

    I use the Viking Solutions Deer Hoist...... works fantastic. Also comes in very handy when loading heavy items I purchase from Home Depot or other stores. Takes up very little space in the bed of my truck, I leave it in the truck all the time in case I need it...

    Pest control & Fun Practice

    Woodchuck is one of my favorite wild game meals. Here on Long Island I hunt them with my high power pellet rifles and on my property up in the Catskills I hunt them with a .243 or my .223 The large ones make an outstanding pot roast and the smaller ones I fry up just like you would a squirrel...

    Reloading

    I started reloading years ago when ammunition first started to get hard to find and I've never looked back. The initial cost, acquiring the equipment and components you'll need, of course adds up but after that you're all set and you will soon find yourself making ammunition for your rifles...

    Best Lighted Nocks

    I used Luminock for a while but had to many issues with then failing to light. On the recommendation of a friend, who's been using them for years, I switched to Firenocks and I absolutely love them. They always light up, are very easy to turn off and I really like the fact that all the...

    Neck Meat - What do you do with it?

    Exactly, I don't worry about it. The pressure and the heat melts it away. Never any foul taste or chewy chunks. The meat is so tender and delicious it's like eating candy.

    Neck Meat - What do you do with it?

    When you purchase a pressure canner it should come with an instruction booklet that will explain the amount of pressure required and how long the jars must remain in the pressure canner at the required pressure. "Ball" , a major manufacturer of canning supplies, has a couple of excellent...

    Neck Meat - What do you do with it?

    You have to pay strict attention to the pressure and time requirements during the process but it's really very easy to do and it's just amazing how convenient it is when it comes to long term venison storage and how delicious the end result is.

    Neck Meat - What do you do with it?

    Like the others I'll use it as a de-boned stuffed roast, ground it up, cooked it in the Instant Pot pressure cooker and it turns out great, however here's another option....... can it in a pressure canner. It comes out fantastic. I can quite a bit of my deer meat. No refrigeration needed to...

    Hawk Crawler game cart

    I picked up one a couple months ago when Amazon had them on sale. I haven't used it on a deer yet but I did load it up with different items and tested it and it performed really well. I like it. Very sturdy, nicely constructed, pulls and rolls very nicely empty or with a load and the...
