Bring Back Quail Hunting

It’s a difference in perspective. It’s a difference in generations. If you asked me, I would tell you that quail hunting was for the wealthy, more of a status symbol than an actual hunting activity per se. My father-in-law, however, would tell you that it was a poor man’s game back in his day. Why…

The Prodigal

The Georgia woods hold a lot of secrets. Some of these secrets will be found out, while others may never. Many deer hunters have stories of the “one that got away” or of a big Georgia buck that they shot and never found. I am sure many hunters, especially bowhunters, have stories very similar to…

GON’s Trophy Room – September 2024

Editorial-Opinion September 2024

Few calls generate a more pronounced roll of the eyes as the cougar sighting. Brad Gill and I have been at this for a very long time­—35 years for me and 26 for Brad. We’ve easily looked into more than a thousand reports of a cougar in Georgia. We even ran a year-long Georgia Cougar…

Editorial-Opinion July 2024

A curious mind, sprinkled with a touch of skepticism, serves a person well. It’s how we sort fact from fallacy, and clarify the gray areas between. Several years ago you might have seen an email or text of an aerial photo showing a gator swimming across the surface of Lake Allatoona with a grown deer…

Living By Example

Five years ago, I was not a writer. God had not yet blessed me with the realization that I would enjoy putting words to paper. Then, I got inspired, and I wrote a book about a grandfather-figure mentor in my life who was a “giant” to me. Shortly after my book publishing, I sent a…

The View

Gazing down at the massive Missouri River that coursed through the valleyed South Dakota spring landscape, I suddenly understood why I did not kill a turkey at that location. I heard Donald Devereaux Jarrett’s voice behind me carry quietly in the cooling breeze. “We were meant to come here this afternoon. I don’t understand it…

Goodbye Elijah

Today I get to publish a blog I’ve never been allowed to write. Until now… My wife and I were sitting in church one Sunday in 2018 and a man spoke on fostering children. God had been dealing with both of us individually on this subject for several years. It was on that Sunday that…
