    So who had the best bucket last year?

    I got a nice ambush spot for my first trad kill to go down. Who makes the best bucket?

    2022 Bows...Wish List & Expectations

    With 2022 upon us, for some manufacturers that means new bows to add to their line-ups. I've heard rumors that a few companies won't create a new bow for 2022 due to material shortages, however I've not heard which companies. Any company that decides not to produce a new bow will unfortunately...

    A good book not about hunting, but inadvertantly about hunting

    I just read the book "Comfort Crisis" by Michael Easter. It was a pretty good book about how weak we've become as humans due to modern comforts, but it was also a great read about hunting. Here are my takeaways from the book, besides the great hunting story that is the basis of the book: - Eat...

    Valkyrie Delivery System

    Does anyone have experience with Valkyrie and their arrow builds? Specifically the centerpin system for micro-diameter arrows? After watching a lot of reviews to include DIY sportsman arrow build, I think I want to go down the Valkyrie route (with zinger fletchings instead of the AAE), but I was...

    Dan Infalt’s Changes

    Saw on FB and The Hunting Beast forums earlier this week. It looks as if the Big Buck Serial Killer finally came into the new century and got himself a new and improved bow setup. Shooting a Nexus I believe with Day Six arrows. He's not sponsored by them or anything, just cool to see. The real...

    I have to admit...(Tethrd product request)

    Sometimes when hunting hill country during rifle season, I don’t even climb a tree. I use the predator platform as a tree seat & just sit. Brings me to a request for Tethrd, please create a “predator conversion cushion”, cause the predator is pretty uncomfortable as a seat without a cushion...

    Confronting Deer Envy

    Envy is something that many don’t admit to. It takes one to admitting their self-imposed inadequacies, which most people hate to do. I’ve been feeling disappointed in myself these last two days in regards to deer envy. I’ve seen two great bucks taken from areas I hunt this weekend, and it...

    Stick innovations

    I got to thinking about packability with climbing sticks. I own LW sticks, full size, and the weight isn’t much of a problem. However the size of them are quite cumbersome. I don’t care much for cut down sticks that need to be used with aiders, as I just want sticks, preferably no more than 4...

    Standing Corn Field Camo

    On THP’s podcast recently with John Eberhart , he talked about hunting standing corn with a stalking method. He said something along the lines of having corn field camo, and I got to thinking about what this would look like? Also, I loved how he stated how exhilarating it was. I find every...

    Saddle Location

    Here’s a private place I’m hunting tomorrow with good sign, standing corn, relatively un-pressured. The blue is the projected wind direction for the day, yellow is my access route. The stand marked is what I initially planned to hunt as it may intercept deer a deer trail going to and from the...

    Sawyers Works

    Spent half a day scouting yesterday and only two bugs had the nerve to land on my hands. My fault, I didn’t spray my hands with repellent. Other than that, the sawyers on my clothing was flawless. Take off my scouting shirt and use a regular tee as I mow my lawn afterwards, damn mosquitoes bit...
