Game Camera Mounting Tips

One thing that often gets overlooked when putting up trail cameras is the height. If the trail camera is mounted too low, it limits the field of view. And if you’re putting you trail camera in an area that could flood, you’re risking damage to the camera and your pictures.

When Dove Shooting Becomes Dove Hunting

With the proper equipment and knowledge about doves, outdoorsmen can enjoy one of the best wing-shooting sports. Opening day of dove season often can result in a frustrating frenzy of fast shooting, plenty of birds and much spent powder. But after opening day, the wild and timid surviving doves know how to dodge hunters. Dove shooting then becomes dove hunting, an altogether different sport.

Practice and Learn Why You’re Missing Doves

If you're serious about your dove shooting, go to a trap, a skeet or a sporting-clay range. Have a qualified instructor watch you shoot. In 5 to 10 minutes, he'll be able to see the mistakes you're making and help you drastically increase your ability to shoot doves more proficiently.

Trail Camera Placement

Don’t just pick a random tree and throw up a camera. It’s important to have a strategy when placing your trail camera. A trail camera strategy should include knowing where the deer are traveling and making sure you're putting the trail camera in the best place to capture good photos of the moving deer.

Best Time to Feed a Hunting Dog

When it comes to hunting dogs, it’s important to make sure they are fed the night before heading out to hunt. This gives the dog food about 12 hours to be digested. The reason we do this is to meet the dog’s nutritional needs for energy to retrieve, stay warm and to perform at his best.

Still Hunters Can Benefit from Hunters Using Dogs

One aspect of hunting with dogs that we've been able to take advantage of is the fact that dogs can’t see antlers. They run what they smell. Many times when dogs come on to our land running a deer, they may be running a doe, and we’ll see old smart bucks get up and sneak out of the woods so the dogs don’t find them. Then we’ll have an opportunity to take a mature buck

Trail Camera Settings

Today’s trail cameras have a ton of options that you can set up specifically for your location and situation. If you’re setting it up over deer bait like corn or a mineral lick, turn your frequency and sensitivity down so you don’t end up with a lot of photos of the same thing. If you’re using your camera over a deer scrape, trail or opening of a food plot, turn the frequency and sensitivity up

Hunting Club Management and Camaraderie

On the cattle farm property where we have 15 members, we have a clubhouse, and it’s nicer than many people’s homes. We have satellite TV, air conditioning, electric heat, a bunk room, kitchen, washer and dryer - making it a home away from home. Every morning we get up and cook breakfast, and we all come out and eat together. I think most of our members belong to that club as much if not more
