Good morning , wanted to remind everybody , if you are near the Springfield , Missouri area this evening ( 9/30/10 ) , Ducks Unimited is having a Sportsmans Night Out banquet . Plenty of good food and prizes galore . The event is located at the Knights of Columbus building at 2340 w. Grand . Doors open at 6pm with tickets available there . Raffles will be hed for outdoor gear , guns , guided hunting / fishing trips . Hope to see you there ...

Good morning all , I hope everyone had a productive week and are looking forward to the weekend . I know I am . I spent the morning in the woods . I set up another stand this morning as well as checked for sign and pulled the card on my cam . Pics are still showing little movement . I do have a few nicer pics of quality deer though . Atleast now I can start to pattern movement better . Its nice being able to refer to the time stamped on pics so you an plan accordingly . Not only do game cameras provide you with date/time of movement , they also give you evidence of the animals in an area you are hunting or scouting . Have a good weekend all . Ill post more pics and news as it comes in .

Full moon and cooler temps . Most of the country this year has experienced above average temps . With hunting seasons opening across the country , alot of hunters are up in arms over heading to the woods . The temps have the deer moving at odd hours trying to stay cool and feed in the dark of the night . I do believe relief is on the way . With the full moon upon us , there is a cold front pushing through the midwest this week . This weather system is bringing rain to alot of the country as it passes through . The average temps throughout the central part of the country should drop by 10-15 degrees during the day and close to 20 degrees at night . For us working folks , that means we should see a fair amount of movement over the weekend . You may end up getting wet , and have to spend a few more hours than normal in the woods . However , for those that tough it out , success should follow . Be safe and good luck , hope to see you in the woods .

Good day all , I hope everyone had a safe and productive weekend . Temps have been in the mid to high 80's here in our neck of the woods . The weather man is calling for cooler temps and a possible rain shower for us later in the week and towards the weekend . Hopefully with the cooler temps and the full moon upon us , the deer will start moving a little better . Alot of folks in my area are seeing deer , however they are does and yearlings . Most of the movement has been in the middle of the day or early a.m. before shooting light . Congrats if you have already put one down , and if not , good luck .

Afternoon , hope all is well with everyone . I am at home relaxin with family and friends . Our archery season opened yesterday . I spent a couple hours out yesterday but didnt see anything . Spent more time setting up trail cams and scouting then I did hunting . Hopefully soon I will have some new trail cam pics to post . The weekend is fast approaching . Best of luck to those taking to the woods this weekend .

Good afternoon everyone , sorry it has been so long . Unfortunately I didn't have access to a computer while I was in Washington state . However , I'm glad to be back home now and able to stay in touch .
For those who had asked in the past about Wapiti Creek in Washington ,
After having experienced and seen the outfitter first hand , I would not personally recommend them to anybody . I did only see one side of the business and experience one camp however , with that being said ...
Let me reiterate... I have not , do not , and will not partake in any type of unethical or illegal hunting habits . Job or no job , friend or foe , the answer from me is NO .
I am looking forward to our opening archery season starting tomorrow . As well while Im in the woods , Ill be hangin trail cams . Hopefully will have some good pics to post in the near future.
Be safe , stay well , and good luck this fall .
