Sportsmen Support License-Fee Increases, But Want Assurances

Most sportsmen seem to be generally in favor of a proposed license-fee increase, but there’s a strong sentiment that any additional funding needs to be used for hunting and fishing improvement and programs. Much of the support begins on a personal level. Most of us probably go to church with, have kids on the same…

Before you apply for any online quota hunt this year, you’ll need to jump through a few easy hoops that are designed to make life easier for those who apply for quota hunts…

One State, One Deer Season

The DNR Board approved the proposed regulations changes put forth by the Wildlife Resources Division (WRD), and the result is one statewide deer-season length for hunters across the state. The Northern Zone and Southern Zone—forever a fixture in the Georgia deer-hunting regulations—are still there, but now they only apply to the baiting regulations. Baiting is…

Doe-Day Map Making A Return

When it comes to setting hunting regulations, it’s quite impossible to please everyone. Based on reaction to proposed changes to next year’s Georgia deer season, quite a few groups are far from pleased.

2015 Georgia Legislative Session: Harvest Recording System Coming?

Most sportsmen likely haven’t noticed, but your Georgia state senators and representatives have been meeting at the capitol in Atlanta since mid January. Lawmakers still haven’t adopted my personal belief that before any new law can be proposed they have to strike one existing law that’s overreaching or just plain stupid… Nor have legislators done…

Buck Loses Antler To A Coon

Since the invention of trail cameras, hunting has never been the same. Hunters use them to pattern and kill deer and turkeys, and even trappers are using them to figure out when certain critters are in the area. Trail cameras also let hunters capture some of that wacky and weird stuff that happens in the…
