If you follow mainstream news, the drum beat of national politics never ends—budgets, departments, confirmation hearings, waste, fraud, taxes, tariffs and Trump… but you’re not going to hear anything about where the crappie are biting or whether there will be any turkeys willing to gobble this spring. At GON, we try to leave national politics…
I’m not sure what happened to the buck. It’s been more than 20 years since we met face to face. Somewhere in the space of time, my arrow is still on its way to the vitals, but it will never get there. It was never meant to get there. The place I hunted has since…
Ben Martin from the Hunt Regs App started the 2025 turkey season with a bang down in south Florida. Ben saw this bird asleep in the tree and was able to slip in quietly and get set up before sunrise. After nearly 75 gobbles on the limb, this gobbler flew down and immediately ran in…
Since Georgia Outdoor News magazine started in 1987, we have continuously enjoyed sharing the accomplishments of others. Some months we’ll receive hundreds of pictures of happy hunters and anglers every year who just want to share their accomplishments.

This past deer season I was called to help track a buck that a young girl had shot while hunting with her dad. The deer had dropped in its tracks, but then dragged itself into a nearby ditch, effectively preventing a good follow-up shot. The blood trail was initially good but then dwindled to one…
The thought of artificial intelligence scares me. First of all, I just don’t understand it. I never will. I never want to. As more and more people are leaning on technology and becoming completely and hopelessly dependent on it, I find myself yearning to take a step back away from it all. I find comfort…

“The Golden Age of America begins right now.” Those were the opening words from the mouth of our 47th president a few weeks ago as he began his inauguration address.
