About Killin’ Snakes

As soon as I saw the photo, I knew two things. One, we were going to do a story on it. Two, I knew it would make some folks mad. I never thought it would make a few folks that mad. In 30-plus years of making GON magazines, this is something we come across most…

Huge Georgia Gator Taken On Reed Bingham Hunt

By Leo Coleman This year I drew my second-ever alligator tag. A Zone 4 tag was known to be a bit easier to get drawn, and I am fortunate to know some folks who allow access to hunt gators in the Zone. Pursuing gators in the dark is quite unlike any other hunting we’ve done.…

Not Your Typical Blogger

Call me behind the times, old fashioned, or out of the technology loop, but blogging really isn’t my thing. It feels good to get that off my chest. Now I will admit, at 33 I’m kind of an anomaly in the fact that I don’t own a home computer, my house doesn’t have a lick…

Missing My Friend Glen Solomon

I still can’t believe my friend Glen Solomon has gone to be with Jesus at the age of just 52. I first met Glen on Saturday, Nov. 26, 2005 as I rolled into a campground on Chickasawhatchee WMA. We had coordinated a trip together so he could show me a thing or 10 about how…
