There is always a lot of hype surrounding the ATA show....reconnecting with old industry friends, making new ones, and last but not least, the exciting new hunting products!

.Twenty-Two: A Series of Stories

When I look back on, "my best years," they're the years where I accomplished the most, the years I learned, the years I grew, and the years I felt things that set my heart and soul on fire. At 21 years young, the only things I had really harvested were whitetail, turkeys, and a pronghorn, which is more than some people can say, but the year I turned twenty-two, would prove to be my golden year as a hunter. April Tom - A Single Pellet. My turkey season had not been successful.

Fall Isn’t Just for Deer: How to Tag a Turkey This Season

For most hunters across the country, fall is all about deer hunting. We spend our summers prepping food plots, putting up tree stands and ground blinds, checking game cameras, and sighting in our guns and bows. But for some of us, fall turkey hunting is just as important. While spring turkey hunting brings the excitement of those early morning gobbles and the challenge of getting that tom to come into your calls, the fall season offers its own excitement and challenges.

Duck on the Grill - Teal Kabobs Recipe

For waterfowl hunters, some have already the opportunity to bring home ducks. States like Nebraska, Illinois, and Mississippi have early teal seasons. These hunters are hopefully a step ahead in re-stocking the freezer from last year. Others will have to wait till regular season opens. Regardless of when you can hunt, a recipe will be needed for teal that is brought home. Teal kabobs are easy, quick and tasty! It’s the perfect meal to share with friends. Keep in mind, this re

Baked Jalapeno Dove Poppers Recipe

The opening weekend of the Missouri Dove Season was a success for Huntress View founder Andrea Haas and team members Courtney Ogden, Kinsey Edmunds and Cara Holland.

Here's a recipe for making dove poppers in the oven, an alternative to making them on the grill. We chose to make them i

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

SkyRest - Product Review

A few years ago, I was whitetail hunting with my muzzleloader and a doe stepped out about 100 yards broadside in front of my treestand. It was the perfect opportunity to fill the freezer, so I steadied my muzzleloader as best I could and made the shot. I completely missed. I remember how unsteady I felt while I was aiming, and had to move around quite a bit in order to get in a different position before I felt steady enough to shoot. How I wish I had a SkyRest for that hunt,

Roll With the Punches

Do you recall a time when you were out hunting and everything went exactly as planned? In my 11 years of hunting, I can think of only a handful of times that everything fell into place perfectly. That doesn't mean that my other hunting experiences were bad. On the contrary. It's the unexpected moments in the woods that keeps things interesting and makes you evolve as a hunter. On opening weekend of the 2017 Missouri Turkey season, something unexpected happened during my hun

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

Ladies’ LST Eqwader 3-in-1 Coat Product Review

As an avid waterfowl hunter, the importance of having a warm but functional jacket is a priority. While waterfowl hunting, a good portion of the time you are in a blind of some sort. Whether that be a blind where you are sitting up or laying down, there is a lot of movement that is required and you don’t want your gear getting in the way when it’s time to sit up, pop up in the blind and shoot. I was having a constant battle of trying to stay warm during the subzero wind chill

Jewelbilee: Shotgun Bangles

Just months ago I started admiring Jewellbilee custom jewelry on Instagram. Being a hunter that loves to accessorize, the shotgun shell bangles instantly caught my eye. Scrolling through the newsfeed just days later I saw that Jewellbilee was having a giveaway and the prize....shotgun shell bangles!!! I rarely enter giveaways because I feel that my chances are slim to none, but I was taking my chances on these bracelets. Much to my surprise I won the giveaway. When I recei

For the Love of Bird Hunting

As my love for deer hunting has grown considerably over the years, so has my love for hunting birds. Most recently I have taken up pheasant, dove and crow hunting and found that I enjoy that just as much as I do hunting deer. Not only has it expanded my time in the outdoors, it introduced me to a much more relaxed and carefree hunting atmosphere, which I found is much needed after months of being so serious about deer hunting. Last November I went on my very first pheasant h

Andrea's 2013 Turkey Season

Opening day of 2013 turkey season in Missouri had finally come. On this hunt I let my friend Nikki tag along with me, her first ever turkey hunt! (Yes our husbands stayed home in bed!) We got all of our gear together & headed to my hunting property down the road. The sun was starting to come up by the time we made it to our property & turkeys were gobbling all around us so we hurried to get to the blind. My blind was set up on the edge of a small pocket field in the woods tha

Huntress View - Welcome!

Welcome to Huntress View! I created this blog and Facebook page so women have somewhere to go to gain insight on hunting and shooting from a woman's point of view. This is a place for the experienced huntress or for the woman who is thinking about going hunting for the first time. I feel that more women will get involved in hunting if they are able to get advice from real women hunters and know what hunting products huntresses are using, and loving! By giving honest feedback
