    For you predator hunters what’s the best electronic call I can get. I have $150 in gift cards to Cabela’s burning a hole in my pocket

    No reason a season should end that early

    My dad missed what he calls a big 8 pointer last night. I grilled him and he said he thought it was a 2 or 3 yr old. That’s promising for me. He saw 7 deer last night and I plan on hunting tonight and tomorrow

    The snow last weekend busted the blind at my doe spot. I might be done for the year, even though we have 2 weeks left.

    I like the fox pro calls while you may not be able to get one for 150 you'd make your final bill much less!

    I run the Foxpro Fusion and love it. I have had it for 5 years now, beating the crap out of it, and had my first issue this past week with something internal. Foxpro customer service is phenomenal and I should have a working call back within the week. You can't go wrong choosing one of their models.

    I would imagine! I've got another solid year before I start taking on that whole adventure, and I'm sure thankful for that.

    Hey fellas, not to bring the mood down but my family could use your thoughts and prayers today. My sweet yellow lab Daisy passed away unexpectedly this morning. It was a total freak thing. She has a tendency to dig in the trash can in our house occasionally while we are gone and this morning after leaving for work I realized I left the house without taking my medicine. I turned around and went back home not being gone 5 min. and found her laying on the floor with a chip bag over her face. I tried like hell to give her chest compressions and even mouth to mouth as weird as that probably sounds for 10 minutes but she was gone. I know it might sound silly because she was just a dog but she was part of our family for almost 8 years and was my girl. She worshiped the ground I walked on and was the most sweet natured, loyal dog I’ve ever had. I’m taking off work early so I can get home to dig her grave and prepare to break the news to my boys when they get home from school. I’m dreading it. Life will go on and time heals all wounds but right now it hurts pretty bad. Thanks for letting me vent. I appreciate you all!
