Hunting
I am a longtime reader and subscriber of GON and love the magazine. I currently live in Atlanta, but I grew up in and have hunted my whole life in Dooly County where I grew up in Unadilla. I was hunting the week of Thanksgiving 2019, and I had a really exciting hunt—and accompanying trail-camera…

By Kevin Worley This happened to me on Nov. 1 after more than 20 years of bowhunting. Now I say 20 years, which is true. I bought my bow back in ’98 or ’99, I believe, and I still hunt with it today. However, I didn’t exactly bowhunt a great deal because I never enjoyed hunting…
With assistance from state and regional agencies, four counties in southwest Georgia have installed signage to address contamination associated with the illegal dumping of deer carcasses. The Pataula Creek watershed, located in Stewart, Quitman, Randolph and Clay counties, contains several stream segments which are listed as impaired by the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) for…
Mark Malueg, of Jefferson, was out for some meat collection on Nov. 13 while hunting in Oglethorpe County, but he ended up filming a buck make the grunt-snort-wheeze sound it sometimes makes during the rut. “I killed a doe early in the morning hunt as she entered a food plot,” said Mark. “About 30 seconds…
