By Rex Wallace First off, I didn’t even think I would be deer hunting opening weekend because my dad, uncle, cousin and I were on our annual bear hunt in north Georgia. However, after walking and scouting for several miles and several long hours around the mountain without seeing any sign, or bears, we went…
Today I have to share with you the worst news I think any of us ever hear. Some of you have heard this news, many of you likely have not. Things have not been business as usual the past month. It is with a very heavy heart that I tell you of the passing of…
This week in Kansas was solid! Another dozen birds or so bit the dust as hens are becoming more and more scarce. The gobblers are on the move and are responding probably as good as they have all season. We have killed several gobblers heavier than 25 pounds, and with a week to go for me,…
Things are heating up in Kansas, including the weather. This week went from cold to hot, and the number of kills climbed dramatically. We have taken 15 gobblers this week, including eight on Thursday, May 4. It’s been a blast watching hunters take Rio Grandes in Kansas and then jumping into Nebraska an hour north for…
I took off on Monday and headed for the Sunflower State of Kansas. Good weather and easy traffic, combined with the anticipation of screaming Rio Grande turkeys, made it an easy drive. I spent the night along the way somewhere between St. Louis and Kansas City. I met with Joe and Suzy Conyers, of Conyers…
Well, we are officially on the other side of the hill now. The downhill slide. The second half of the season. Since I tagged out last weekend, I spent a couple of days this week trying to help some other people get a bird. My good friend, Lee Baird, of Putnam County, and I went…
I can’t think of anything outside of Six Flags that puts you on a roller coaster more than turkey hunting. Emotionally and physically, it will test you like nothing else. That’s how it’s been for me this season, and I really didn’t expect anything less. While Week 3 was winding down, so were my chances…
Week No. 3 of Georgia’s turkey season was a pretty quiet one for me. I was limited on my time in the turkey woods last week. Wednesday and Thursday were my off days, and they were less than ideal days to be in the turkey woods. Wednesday was a washout in my neck of the woods.…
The first nine days of the Georgia season has been a roller coaster ride! I spent Monday and Tuesday on Cedar Creek WMA and came close to connecting both mornings, but being close doesn’t help the mindset too much. I had one in range Monday morning, but there was a rise between us that saved his life.…
Henned-Up Gobblers For Georgia Opener The anticipation of a new turkey season is a special time, but due to the fact that I knew I would be at work instead of in the woods made last week almost unbearable. I spent most of the weekend reflecting on my trip with friends to Florida last weekend. Special memories…
