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. We are truly blessed that so many loyal Georgians think enough of GON to share with us about what they’ve accomplished.…
Romans 8:28: We know that all things work together for the good of those who love God, and are called according to His purpose. I will start by saying that whether I get the chance to shoot these bucks or not doesn’t mean God loves me any more or less. All of my blessings are…
Is there still a Miss America pageant? Haven’t heard mention of it in years, but I thought of the pageant interview question this morning… a nervous contestant alone on stage, and she’s asked a question. “World Peace!” Turns out those who answered with what was thought of as a shallow cliche were right all along.…
“I’m not finding anything, but I think I hit him, right?” I looked to my friend for reassurance. “It sure looked like he was hit to me, but I couldn’t see him well when you shot,” my friend, Diz, responded. We were both feeling sick as we searched unproductively for blood. It was prime time…

About the only thing more difficult than pronouncing the word navigable is defining it. But define it we might. Lawsuits, unprecedented last-minute midnight action at the capitol, and now public meetings across the state conducted by a who’s-who of legislative heavyweights… all are currents pulling a creaky old wooden raft toward treacherous waters. Those waters…
One of the 2023 Georgia archery season’s best bow bucks was taken by 14-year-old Smisson Rigdon. Smisson’s Houston County 13-pointer has more than 160 inches of antler. We met up with Smisson for a photo shoot and talked with him on video about his incredible bow season. To see more photos and read Smisson’s hunt…
I’m not sure if there is a more sentimental bass lure to me than the good ol’ topwater Arbogast Jitterbug. Ever since I first fished with one long ago, I have had a black Jitterbug in my tacklebox. It was easy for me as a young kid to cast because of its weight, and the…
