First Rifle Hunt
It was a cold day, and we were up at 4am to go out to the hunting property. We met up with dad's friend Jimmy at the Dunkin Donuts before heading there. We all climbed out of the trucks and began walking towards our tree stands. I was only 6 or 7 at the time, … Continue reading First Rifle Hunt
Flex-M
The Flex-M is the biggest bang for your buck package when it comes to cell cameras. Based off of the original Flex design, it is affordable at the same price point as the Link-Micro series. Most of my micros that are starting to age have been slowly but surely swapped out for the Flex-M and … Continue reading Flex-M
Ground blind hunting
I don't remember when it was, but my dad got this idea for the two of us to sit behind some camouflaged netting at the old farm where he hunted. He set netting around a bunch of trees so that we could walk in and sit at a pinch point. We sat on some buckets … Continue reading Ground blind hunting

Hunting 2022
Most of my hunting is done in Pennsylvania. There, you get a buck tag and, if you are lucky and time it right, a doe tag as well through a first come, first served system. This year I was able to get one because the plan in motion prior to my dad passing was to … Continue reading Hunting 2022
The Story of Stumpy
The Story of Stumpy, starts in 2019, where my dad and uncle are talking about a buck that has a weird left side to him. The three of us want to shoot him, mainly so that he doesn't produce offspring that have the potential to have whatever bad genetic with his antlers. Be advised as … Continue reading The Story of Stumpy
