Sitka launched in 2005 with a burning mission to not only produce top hunting gear but to also demand the results needed with that gear that top outdoorsmen expect when they go afield. Eight years later, and after much sweat and pounding and exacting refinement, they’re still not satisfied. From an early-season jacket to a […]
Ohio’s young hunters have the opportunity to pursue white-tailed deer during the state’s 11th annual youth white-tailed deer hunting season Nov. 23-24, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources. The youth deer-gun season is open statewide to hunters holding a valid youth hunting license and a deer permit. Deer can be hunted with a […]

Currently in its second season, the travel whitetail hunting series ventured across the country and into Canada this year, with excursions to Anticosti Island, Ted Nugent’s Michigan hunting retreat, Texas, Lake of the Woods, Florida and […]
Apparently the good folks at Butterball are having a wee bit of a problem this year providing their plus-sized turkeys for the annual Thanksgiving runway experience.

I ran across this outstanding story on AllOutdoor.com and decided it’s worth sharing. Well worth it, given that often in the deer hunting world each season we see too much garbage […]
We do as much as possible to contain our human odors before, and maybe even when, we get into the woods for a morning or afternoon of deer hunting. But sometimes in the effort to spray our clothes that have been hanging outside or contained in a special container just for them, we forget about […]
Jason Archer didn’t strike out to hunt deer. He actually was thinking about smoking a feral pig since he’d seen so many of them on game camera photos.
