Join The Wired Outdoors Team on the banks of the Allegheny River in Parker, Pennsylvania as we take the Polar Bear Plunge for our “Hunt of A Lifetime” kids!

Until coming across the Lansky Sharpening System, I was never able to put a sharp durable edge on my knives. I’ve tried whetstones and though I could put a serviceable edge on my knife, it was never truly sharp.

First time experience hunting monster whitetail in Pike County Illinois through the eyes of a cameraman.

Truly thankful on this Thanksgiving!

Sudden change of plans leads to a VERY successful night!

With more and more hunting pressure, geese are being educated faster and are less likely to work your spread. As a waterfowler one is always attempting to put more birds in the shot path of our decoy spreads and defining the X.

I have found that Larry Juhl’s “the Goose Tree” does just that. The goose tree defines the X and enables the waterfowl hunter to use less decoys. The simulated landing of geese allows incoming birds to honor the landing birds ahead and lock on the X. The birds are focused on the X and birds ahead and not on your location in the blind. Thus giving the hunter a better opportunity to be successful.

I won’t be redundant in the thanks to everyone involved with the September 19, 2009 3-D Benefit shoot. But as we know if it weren’t for those people that see the good in all people and the importance of God in our daily lives the world we live would be in worse condition.

The most important thing to me when hunting from a hang on stand is comfort. I believe, when spending long hours in a stand, comfort keeps me sharp when the moment of opportunity arrives. The Millennium M100 is the most comfortable stand I’ve ever hunted.

After having 4 girls born in to our family and not very interested in hunting it was a shock, and the beginning of a dream when our son was born. In April of 1990, it all started. I had just bought a new Winchester model 1300 Wild Turkey Federation shotgun and was looking forward to using it and getting my first long beard.
