    Whitetail System on a budget

    I've had good luck finding mid-layer and outer-layer clothes in thrift stores. I like to find anything wool for mid and base layers--doesn't matter about the color for me as long as it is drab. The one expensive item I like is the LL Bean Guide Pants; those combined with a good base layer are...

    Backcountry Back pack White tail Bow Hunt

    Yup, that bear and the buck were two of some of the most memorable hunts of my life, regardless of antler size. The key will be to find the oaks that didn’t get stripped then! As far as I know gypsy moths aren’t very prevalent in most of VA yet so we’re looking good for the fall at least.

    Backcountry Back pack White tail Bow Hunt

    I started doing pretty long day trips in the Jefferson National Forest last year. Got several miles back in some seriously gorgeous and rugged country. Killed a bear on October 9 and a small buck on October 31. Definitely planning on several overnight trips this upcoming fall.

    Is a .22 ok for elk?

    A .22 doesn’t give the quarry enough of a sporting chance. I’m more of a traditionalist and prefer to take my slingshot or boomerang when I’m chasing elk. All these new fangled .22s and .17s are gonna ruin the sport of it. It’s time for folks to go back to the old ways. Just my 2¢

    Finding less pressure on Public Land

    I hunt in 3 main regions of VA and I tend to agree with you. For deer and small game there’s little pressure in most of the places I go aside from opening day. On the other hand, an old duck hunting spot my family has hunted for several decades has been chock full of people the last 5 years...

    Copper bullets and whitetail

    The only experience I have had with any copper bullet and an animal was a Nosler E-tip in .243 last season. Shot a doe behind the shoulder at about 60yds and it basically penciled through her. Maybe a shoulder shot would have created expansion, but I was not impressed to say the least. I have...
