    Daytime raccoon calling

    Yep, they’ll respond. If you get a day near or above freezing they should respond. I’ve called when it’s colder and you’ll get a couple, but right around freezing or above is more productive.

    Daytime raccoon calling

    We have a few cottonwood trees, but mostly hardwoods here. Walking creeks along corn fields and looking for trees with holes is effective. A little snow and then some warmer weather makes tracking them to a tree pretty easy. Lots of other good advice above. You learn alot by just getting out...

    I’m not a smart man but…

    Congrats! My wife and I love our GSP’s. My wife mostly loves them…the relationship got strained when she got a bunch of chickens lol. Can’t blame a bird dog for doing what it was meant to.

    Can a Browning X-Bolt Pro Hang with a Seekins or Tikka?

    The stocks on X-Bolts never fit great for me, but they seem to shoot well. You'll definitly need a trigger spring or new trigger.

    Tikka Factory Laminated Stock Good?

    I was thinking about getting a Tikka laminated stock as a stiffer replacement for the Lite stock. I know they are a bit heavier, but not too worried about that. Plus I like how they look. Those using one, how do you like them? Are they worth the extra cost over the synthetic stock?

    Is traditional archery hunting unethical?

    Howard Hill…look at those videos. Most guys putting out trad videos today do it to look cool and haven’t practiced enough to be lethal. Trad archery does take more time and practice than a compound. But once the instincts and muscle memory kick in, it’s impressive how well you can shoot.

    Pemmican: My way

    I assume freeze dried berries would be best, but more expensive. I really want to make this, but my meat stock isn’t much this year.

    Centerfire handloads for Small Game?

    .22 Hornet? Not sure how OAL would work with longer bullets, but Barnes makes some lighter ones. .221 Fireball has also been a favorite of mine. I used to push it fast with LilGun and 40gr VMaxs, but you can use a bit heavier bullet and slow it down and it may not blow a bunny apart.

    East Coast Coyote Hunting - Advise for a Newb

    Coyotes in the east are a fun challenge. Usually mornig or evening is best, like most other animals. There are a couple approaches to calls...some guys will use coyote vocals as their go to all year, other use prey distress. Both will work and work fine together. Coyotes are very senstive to...

    Low Light Setups

    Use a nose button and get rid of the peep. With some practice it’s still accurate and no need to worry about lighting as long as you can see the pins.

    Cold Hunting Socks Recommendations

    I use a decent pair of compression socks and a pair of rechargeable battery powdered socks. I turn the socks on when I get to the tree I’m climbing and the heat dries out the sweat. If it’s not super cold Darn Tough is my choice. Sometimes with compression socks underneath, they help with...

    Remington vssf .223

    I had one in .221 Fireball that shot well. Probably should have held on to that one.
