In The Moment

Have you ever been in that moment after a long hike through tough terrains and FINALLY get set up on what you've been going after and question whether or not you should take that animal? I feel like almost every hunter can relate to that feeling of uncertainty in some way. I was recently put in this very same situation on an Axis buck hunt. My husband and I finally had a chance to get away for a weekend this summer and we set out for a piece of family property to try and find

5 Signs That You Might Be Ready for Waterfowl Season

These could also mean you’re a little too excited, border line obsessed- maybe? Hey, I’m not here to judge, just shedding some light on the topic. 1) The group texts have started. The gang is getting everyone pumped up by sending photos of the birds in their area, talking new gear, you name it it’s in there and it’s getting everyone’s blood flowing. 2) Spring and summer time, are often times of lawn maintenance. Those tree and shrub trimmings are now stacked in a pile at the

AlpsOutdoorz Upland Game Vest X Product Review

I have always steered clear of men’s or unisex hunting apparel and gear because they’ve never seemed to work well for me. I am tiny and petite and would probably fit better in children’s hunting apparel than I would most women’s apparel. However, the Upland Game Vest X by AlpsOutdoorz has changed my opinion on men’s and unisex items. After wearing it this year on my annual pheasant and quail hunt at Heritage 1865, I was impressed and was left wondering why I ever tried any ot

What Not To Wear

As hunters we know the contents of our pack can be crucial to our hunt or our survival. What you pack on your international hunting experience is no different. This not only applies to your equipment, but also applies to your clothing. I am not going to lecture (in this blog) about knowing your weather conditions, terrain, etc. The focus here is being culturally appropriate for the country you are visiting. There is an emphasis on visiting. Though you are a hunter, you are al

High On A Mountain

I stand on the steep slope of the mountain taking in the scene below. Lake Ohau looms a brilliant blue in the distance welcoming the glacier waters from the rivers that meander through the valley. I take a deep breath and inhale the cool, crisp mountain air. My heart is thumping in my chest, my mind is racing and I am giddy with excitement as we cross the thick scrub to my animal. This morning started the same as most mornings working for Southern Mountain Adventures in New Z

Ghost Targets Product Review

If you are looking for a fun and different way to improve your shooting skills then Ghost Targets would be perfect for you! Ghost Targets are little round targets with a chalk-like consistency. The best way that I can think of to describe their looks is they are small, round and white, similar to a marshmallow. They come in 3 different sizes: 5/8", 7/8" and 1 1/8" diameter. Each bag of ghost targets comes with rubber bands and paper clips to hang them. They are very simple to
