Quail Over Ice

Late season quail hunting is something I enjoy with mixed emotions.  They tend to gather well in thick cover, CRP with woodies, etc.  Being a very social bird, you need to find the clubs they like to hang out in!  Thick CRP fields next to woody cover, tree lines, etc. can …

Late Season Pheasant

There is still plenty of time to take advantage of some of the best pheasant hunting in Nebraska by joining the few but proud late season hunters.  Hershy and I were discussing this on our Nebraska Outdoors Radio Show (every Thursday from 6pm – 7pm on Lincoln’s 1240 AM KFOR) …

Field Hunting Geese

Don’t let some of the best waterfowl hunting pass you by!  The ponds are frozen but goose numbers are at their peak in eastern NE and the one constant is that each afternoon they have to eat. Field hunting is a lot of fun and a bit easier than trying …

You Might Say I Have A Calling For Squirrel Hunting

I have commented before how much I enjoy chasing squirrels.  Ounce for ounce one of the toughest challenges in the file IMHO!  Chasing them with a good single action is a passion.  I talk to many who say they have sat in the woods for an hour with no sighting of …

Dave and I had a great opportunity to hunt waterfowl with our father-in-law last weekend on the Platte and man was that a blast.  These birds came in on the tail of a larger flock (50+) and through a little coaxing on the flute, they peeled off and circled our …

Nebraska’s Goose Commander

I had the privilege of hunting with Nebraska’s own Goose Commander Tim Root on the Platte River this year.  Tim is a waterfowl maniac and takes quite a few hunters into the realm of the goose each season.  Time is a part time barber in Lexington and spends around six …

Staying Warm

Let’s face it…short fat guys have an easier time staying warm.  Don’t get me wrong…carrying this furnace around all summer ain’t easy but its the price you pay for keeping warm in late season hunting weather…unless you know how to dress for the cold! Didn’t take me long to learn …

Late season predator calling requires good layering techniques to stay warm!  This wool parka always fits the bill.

A Mule Deer Hunt – Good Friends and Great Scenery

The following is a story about a recent mule deer hunt from one of our newest education team members Christy Christensen.  Enjoy! One thing that I truly enjoy about being involved in the outdoors is the people I have met along the way. Some have become lifelong friends, others hunting …
