Baseball and Turkey Hunting
Diminished velocity on my breaking ball equals more patience on hung-up gobblers. #hunting

Why I Hate Deer in the Spring
Deer are the number one hunted species in the country and an
easy favorite. Turkey hunting, the numbers show, places a consistent second.
You may love whitetails but I hate them. A lot of you deer hunters chase
turkeys in the spring – and I bet you don’t care for them then either. Here’s
why.

Game on . . .
"She called me over to her laptop the other day. 'Daddy, I
think you’ll like this,' she grinned. And then I watched this. And then I
watched it again. Pretty good shot, eh, even if the killing dynamic is
something of a morphed deal, where the player gets more opportunities and
implied tags than many of us turkey travelers do in a multiple-state season."

Turkey Camp Debate: Belly-Crawling, Fanning or Just Calling?
"Safe? Stupid? Smart? Using turkey fans and decoys to move on
gobblers and henned-up flocks is really nothing new, unless you count the
marketing spin. I’ve done it. You’ve done it. Heck, historical evidence shows
the Native Americans originally had their own forms of tactical hunting
deception.
Now it seems everyone is trying it. In this age of hyper-realistic decoys, repositioning on hung-up birds is a trending tactic – especially in private land locations. Doing it on heavily hunted public land is without question often a fool’s choice.
Why the concern? Safety. Risk and reward occurs by degrees in turkey hunting." –Steve Hickoff

Pennsylvania Grouse Hunting 20 Years Ago
Some 20 years ago, self-timer shot, grouse hunting PA's second season. Heirloom Fox Sterlingworth in my right hand. Fresh ruff in my left. Love those ridges where I grew up hunting.
