Hunting Above 7,000 Feet

Extreme high mountain hunting is where you can see game rich alpine meadows, hidden basins, waterfalls, clear snow-melt rivers, and towering crags. The stars at night always seem to be a little brighter, and the sunrises and sunsets brush the mountain side and forests in colors not seen in the lowlands.

Perry Peterson Watches the Greatest Show on Earth on the First Day of Turkey Season

Planting Success Begins with the Soil

A soil test is the first and foremost step before ever being able to plan out a food plot schematic that is best for your property. Every plant has a different set of ideal conditions, so the type of soil, pH of the soil, and soil nutrients will all have a significant impact on which plants can grow the heartiest when it comes to the location they’re being planted in.

How ProStaffer Perry Peterson Handles a Turkey Duo Behind Him

I was caught between three turkeys. The gobbler with the hens in the middle of the field was about 150-yards away from me. The gobblers behind me were almost strutting in my lap. These two turkeys hadn’t gobbled that morning, so we had no clue these two birds were in the stand of timber right behind us.

Perry Peterson and the Merriam’s Turkey

When the turkey reached a sandy road about 150- to 200-yards away, I toned down my calling by using a mouth diaphragm call. As soon as he heard my call, the bird gobbled and started coming down the road to pass right in front of the spot where I had chosen to set-up.

Cogongrass: Enemy to Wildlife

The invasion of cogongrass has quickly replaced lack of frequent fire as the greatest threat to ecosystem health and land values in many Southeastern states. Fire, in fact, actually makes cogongrass a bigger threat to habitat by making easier for cogongrass to invade a forest, so this plant is one that landowners should not burn but eradicate with herbicides.
