Moultrie Economy All in One Feeder

Over the years I have experimented with several “economy” feeders that are on the market. I’ve paid anywhere from $40 to $70 per unit only to end up disappointed. Ticked off is more like the word for it! I’d get home with the feeder, have to drill holes in order to make the feeder attach to the provided bucket, and then try to decipher the instructions that must have been written by NASA. Thankfully I found the Moultrie Economy All in One with Photocell technology.

It’s “economy” first of all because I purchased it from Moultrie’s online site for just under $40. That included tax and shipping. If you are like me you love to hunt, but real...

HuntVe Game Changer

On a recent trip to Cutawhiskie Creek Outfitters in Menola, NC we ran across a new electric hunting vehicle. It is called the HuntVe Game Changer. The owner of Cutawhiskie, Clay McPherson, said that the guys at HuntVe out of Fort Worth, Texas had given him the 4x4 electric hunting vehicle to show off and use on the ranch in an effort to help them promote the new product. We took a closer look at the Huntve and what you read below is what we discovered.

The HuntVe is built to handle serious terrain. The chassis is manufactured from aircraft strength aluminum in the form of an I-beam for extra strength. The benefit of aluminum over iron is ...

TripleSweet by Boarmasters

For years I have been feeding corn to attract deer to a certain stand location so that I can get that perfect shot and make a good clean kill. The problem is that where I hunt in the bow season there are corn fields galore around me so why should my five gallon feeder bring in the herd when there’s a hundred acres of the same stuff just around the corner?

Thanks to Boarmasters and TripleSweet feed additives I have found a product that liquors up my little feeder to the point that the deer would just as well prefer to come to my corner of the woods as they would like to hit the big cornfield. While there are many feeder additives on the mar...

Wildgame Innovations D8

I just want to give a big ol’ shout out to Wildgame Innovations a BA Products a Game Scouting Camera company. I have written a couple of times in my articles about the cameras giving out. Well I don’t know if it’s giving out or I am truly wearing them out because I leave them in the woods 24-7 for months at a time. These cameras are used and considered to be just like the delivery of the Post Man. Well recently my cameras that were IR 4s were left in the woods and were doing great till a big storm came through and shorted out both of them. Not long after I called the company and they said “Send them back and we will take care of them a...

Billy Roy's HaveMoreDeer

About a good month ago, Matt gave me a sample of Billy Roy’s” HaveMoreDeer” deer attractant to try out. He said, you dig a hole and put corn and this attractant in the hole for the deer to dig up. (By the way my wife almost mistook it for food seasoning and told me to move it out of the kitchen.)Well my deer are about as lazy as I am and we don’t dig if we don’t have to because that’s wasted energy. So as usual I took the easy way out and dumped corn out on the ground and sprinkled it out on top like salt to flavor the corn. I did learn by watching while I was bow hunting that the squirrels, raccoons and the dove loved the treat but I w...

Cutawhiskie Creek Outfitters

Driving down some long country road in eastern NC we got behind a Silverado pickup with a guy that was driving like a bat out of……well you know. It was Clay McPherson. Don’t let the Pher in McPherson fool you. This guy is fearless. I had called him on the way and told him we’d be there around 11am. He was busy dropping off game heads at the local taxidermists. Ok, that’s a good sign.

We pulled in to Cutawhiskie behind Clay and saw that his outfit is definitely built for hunting. From the two story lodge that was rebuilt from a fifty year old tobacco barn to the scenic backdrop of grain bins and open fields surrounded by timber I wanted to ...

Blackwater Hunting Services

I gave Terry Hiers a shout when we were getting close to his place in Ulmer, SC. From the sound of his voice I could tell that he was about to choke on a sandwich. We had told him that we would be there by 2 pm and we had that Goat in the wind to get there on time. Terry own and operates Blackwater Hunting Services in the Low Country of South Carolina and was born and raised in the area so he knows how to hunt the game in his neck of the woods.

Pulling into the long winding drive surrounded by low hanging trees and a bit of Spanish moss we couldn’t help but think that we weren’t going to want to leave once we got back there. We were right....

Appalachian Hunts

It was 14 degrees when Mike and I left our home in the piedmont of North Carolina for a visit with Chris Mclean of Appalachian Hunts in Banner Elk, NC. It was dark thirty if you know what I mean and my Dodge 4x4 was burning up the highway. After a quick stop for gas and biscuits we made our way towards the Appalachians.

Chris had called me the night before to let me know that about six inches of snow had fallen overnight and that the road may get a little slick. We were stoked about meeting up with such a young guide that is proving to be a success in his own right. There was no way that a little snow and ice was going to stop us.

As we...

Wildside Exotic Adventures

It was a cold and kind of lonely morning when I climbed into the Ol’ Goat for a long trip to Warren County, TN for a hunt and interview with Kevin Stotts of Wildside Exotic Adventures. Mike had an appointment with a guy with a small light and a pair of latex gloves and couldn’t make the trip so this adventure would be for me alone. Who knew I would have so much fun by myself. I doubt that Mike had as much fun as I did!

At 2 am I pulled out of the barn and hit the trail. Going on just a few hours of sleep I was determined to make it to TN and back in one piece so with some good old classic rock and country I let the tunes keep me on track. ...

Clay Ridge Hunting Preserve

When Tony Simaan from Clay Ridge Hunting Preserve called and wanted to know if he could be on Land and Hunting I knew that Mike and I were going to be in for a treat. You see I’ve known Tony since I was about 12 years old. The first time that I met the “transplanted” country boy was at his home during a pig pickin. I can remember to this day seeing him riding by on a horse with that big “foo man chew” of a mustache, cowboy hat, and grinning from ear to ear like he was in heaven. When I was a younger man I would sit at the dinner table with my folks and eat the pheasant and quail that Tony and his family would send us after a hunting trip o...
