My friends and I usually try to make a couple of the local hunting and fishing shows throughout the year. Dale, being the elder statesmen of the group had chatted with Troy Spruce of Guaranteed Guide Service at one of the fishing shows in Dallas. I would imagine it was quite a long conversation, as Dale always seems to have lots of questions to ask and lots of information to feed back to folks about hunting and fishing.

The primary topic between Dale and Troy was a guided fishing...

Where Did My Hunting Season Go

Posted 02-28-2009 at 08:36 AM by BigSwad

Another hunting season has slipped past. We move forward into the downtime of life, and ponder about the previous season and what lies ahead for the New Year. The grinding deluge of work and the nagging voice in my head that keeps whispering “Return to Africa” keep me occupied for the next several months as cabin fever will roll in. Books to whisk me off to the magical lands of Ruark, Capstick and Roosevelt will be read into the wee hours of the night and decisions about what next to read will

Improving Your Deer Herd with Protein Supplements

Posted 02-28-2009 at 08:26 AM by BigSwad

Improving Your Lever Gun Accuracy with Hornady LEVERevolution

Posted 02-28-2009 at 08:21 AM by BigSwad

I enjoy shooting. I particularly like shooting rifles. I have several different ones, some notable favorites and even some family heirlooms. But there are usually a couple of rifles that I call my tradin’ rifles. A rifle I buy just to shoot in a particular caliber or model of rifle. I get infatuated with trying out old classic rounds such as the .257 Roberts or Remington Model 788 rifles. My newest rifle is the CZUSA Safari Magnum in .375 H&H. That one will stick with me because it made...

Reviewing Spy Point Game Camera IR-A

Posted 02-28-2009 at 08:10 AM by BigSwad

As most of Jesse’s visitors probably now by know, I have started up an online store. I have researched the products I carry, and have attempted to find the most feature packed products for a reasonable price. So sometimes I run across product that has a new name and a new manufacturer that we might not be aware of. Spy Point Cameras, built by GG Telecom out of Montreal, Quebec, Canada, is one of those products. I decided to engage the camera in a few tests to see how it would respond....
