Hunting

Here’s what nobody tells you about electronic predator calls: that $600 FOXPRO sitting in your truck might be completely wrong for how you actually hunt. Yeah, I said it. Because if you’re like 73% of serious predator hunters today, you’re hunting at night with thermal. And those daylight-focused reviews you’ve been reading? They’re about as […]

Here’s something that’ll save you three grand: 73% of successful coyote hunters are quietly ignoring the gear reviews pushing thermal and night vision. They’re killing more dogs with $200 red lights than the guys dropping mortgage payments on fancy optics. Sounds backwards, right? Last month, the Michigan Coyote Hunting Group ran a survey with over

Here’s what nobody tells you about bone saws: that 3-pound monster strapped to your pack? It’s costing you more than just sore shoulders. After watching hunters drag heavy-duty saws through the backcountry for years, I finally ran the numbers. The results? Kinda shocking. Most deer hunters are carrying 2-3 pounds of unnecessary metal. All because

Here’s the dirty secret about decoy sleds that nobody talks about. That $89 bargain sled you grabbed at Bass Pro? It’s probably the most expensive piece of duck hunting gear you own. Not because of what you paid for it. Because of what it’s costing you every single season. Last month, I watched a buddy

Last November, Mike from Wisconsin watched a 12-point buck walk directly under his stand. Twenty yards. Broadside. Perfect shot. But as he drew his bow, his $89 tree stand umbrella collapsed in a 20 mph gust. Water cascaded down through the branches. The noise was like someone dropping a garbage can. The buck vanished. Mike’s

Here’s a number that’ll piss you off: 73% of unsuccessful hunts happen because hunters set up in the wrong spot. Not because their blind sucked. Not because they didn’t drop enough cash. Because they put their blind in a stupid location. I watched a guy last season burn $800 on a Rhino Blinds fortress. Beautiful

Treestands are very valuable and beneficial pieces of equipment for seasoned hunters as they give you an instant height advantage against your target. However, tree stands can often be short of space thanks to a large tree trunk behind you and therefore compromise the positioning of your arms. This is especially true for bow hunters

Here’s something that’ll make you rethink everything about hunting from tree stands. While everyone else is sitting in their blind hoping a deer walks by, smart hunters are getting text messages about incoming bucks 300 yards out. Yeah, you read that right. The game has changed. Most hunters don’t even know it yet. See, tree

Picture this. You splurged on that $200 ‘premium’ marsh seat last season. The one with all the bells and whistles. Adjustable everything. ‘Waterproof’ coating. Five-star reviews. Now you’re staring at corroded hinges, frozen adjustment pins, and fabric that looks like it went through a cheese grater. Sound familiar? Here’s what nobody tells you: most marsh

Here’s something that’ll sting: that expensive heater sitting in your blind? It’s probably costing you deer. Not because it’s broken. Not because it’s too loud. But because you’re using it completely wrong. Look, I spent years freezing my ass off in blinds, then years sweating like a pig with oversized heaters. Took me way too

Here’s something that’ll piss off the hunting industry: that expensive Sitka Gear face mask with the fancy camo pattern? It’s probably not why you’re missing deer. I spent six months testing best hunting face masks in the field, reading every product review I could find, and talking to hunters who’ve been doing this longer than
