    Lead ammo ban

    Seen on u-tube where there is a plan to ban all lead use on Federal land. Looked it up and yep, looks like it may happen. That means all lead ammo banned, making bow hunting look like a champ.

    17 hmr

    Anyone suppressed a 17 hmr, did it make it quite enough to justify the trouble and cost? One more does the $200 dollar tax go to the Pittman-Roberson act?

    Trail cameras

    I have been running trail cameras in a lot of different locations for 10-15 years now with no luck. Sure I have gotten pictures of deer ,turkeys, coons, yots, skunks etc but no Sasquatch, no Bigfoot, nothing. What am I doing wrong? begining to think maybe there is not any, 2022 is the year. LOL.

    Leased hunting property

    I own some property in North Alabama in an area that in the past has had a good number of deer and some real nice bucks. Now the numbers have dropped, and the racks have gotten a lot smaller, and I believe it is due to leased property surrounding me. As the lease cost gets higher it takes more...

    Acorns

    We have a huge crop of acorns in Bankhead Forest (north Alabama) this year. There are acorns on trees that have not had them for years and most are loaded. BH is a hard hunt and with this kind of crop it may be a lot harder, but I will give a try anyway. What about your area bumper crop or bust...

    RELAX, it's over

    After 132 days of archery season, one unantlered deer per day for 132 days and three bucks for a total of 135 deer it;s over. So everyone that says if it is legal go for it that would give the green light for 135 for the season. It is a wonder we even have a deer left in Alabama.
