GON’s Trophy Room – January 2024

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.…

The Right Way

Romans 12:15 says to “Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep.” It seems like a pretty simple concept to rejoice with people who rejoice, but there are certain instances in deer hunting that can make it difficult. One main example of that would be watching the neighbor kill a big buck that…

Editorial-Opinion January 2024

A picture of me with the first deer I ever killed appeared in our local newspaper. Not because that 9-pointer was newsworthy, but more so because I had a proud and persuasive mom. The headline was “Young Hunter Shoots Buck.” This was in 1978, and being in a small-town paper was special. I was a…

Editorial Opinion – December 2023

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.…

My Last Hunt With John

“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…

GON Blogger Takes Super Georgia 8-Point Buck

“Consider it pure joy, my brothers, when you face trials of many kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.” James 1:2-3 If you have ever spent a lot of time hunting whitetail deer in Georgia, then you have definitely faced trials.
