Josh Thompson Would Rather Sing and Hunt

Thirty-six-year-old Josh Thompson has been in Nashville, Tennessee, for about 10 years and has been burning up the highway for the past 6 years, performing his country and western songs all over the nation. Thompson sings country and western music and writes songs for himself and other artists. His goal is to make enough money and also have enough time to go hunting. Thompson says, “I've been hunting all my life, and I'm so proud

Mossy Oak

In many areas deer won't come to crop fields or green plots until dusk or after dark. Or you may see deer leaving these agricultural areas just at daylight. So putting up a tree stand on the edge of a field may not pay buck dividends. You might need to pinpoint the trails the deer use to come and go and plan an ambush.

Levi Morgan: Tournament Archers and Bowhunters Are Adrenaline Junkies

The greatest feeling in the world happens to me when I have to shoot the last arrow in the World Championship and try to hit a spot on the target that’s about the size of a dime. That’s the most-satisfying feeling in the world. I also get that same feeling, when I'm bowhunting and a monster buck is coming in, and I have to pick the spot where I'm going to try and take him.

Levi Morgan: Stress Doesn’t Kill – It Helps You to Succeed

I know my tournament experience has made me a better bowhunter. For instance, when I’m down to shooting my last arrow in competition, and that arrow can possibly produce $50,000 for the win, that’s a lot more pressure than I face when I'm in the woods aiming at a big buck. So, tournament archery has helped me develop a way to control my emotions and my nerves. When that one shot can make the difference

Levi Morgan: Where His Love for Bowhunting Came from and Where He’s Going Now

Although I’ve had an extremely-successful career in tournament archery, most people don’t know where the love of archery came from for me. I was very fortunate that my dad, Mark Morgan, started me hunting when I was just a kid. When I was about 3, I can remember him dragging me through the woods, and I loved every minute of it. When I was 5-years old, Dad started taking me to archery tournaments - and

Levi Morgan: How Long Can He Continue to Win 3D Archery

I'm often asked, “Levi, how long can you continue to win the Shooter of the Year title?” To be really honest, I don’t know. I'm 27-years old now, and I shoot against some of the best archers in the world. I never may win another Shooter of the Year championship. But whether I do or whether I don’t is more up to the Good Lord than it is me. I want to walk away from

Chris Kirby Says If He’s Bored He Starts Calling

Let’s face it, sitting in a tree stand and not seeing any deer can really be boring and cause your mind to wander. Just because you don’t see or hear a deer doesn’t mean there’s not a deer in your area, so I fall back on my turkey-calling tactics. When turkeys aren’t gobbling, I start calling to them, and when there’s a turkey in the area, most of the time he’ll call back. When I

Why and When Chris Kirby Likes Loud Grunt Calls

The calls that a deer hunter uses are almost always situation-oriented. I like to really blow a grunt call loudly on very-windy days, or when I’m hunting in open hardwoods. For instance, if you’re sitting on your stand, and you draw in your mind a 100-yard circle all the way around your stand, that’s the effective range of most grunt calls.
