O.K. I admit it. At times I find myself envious, even jealous of the pro-hunters and fisher folk that made the big time. They get to hunt or own expansive tracts of private ground and hunt the big name ranches. Basically do the things that I dream about doing.

Trapped in a workaday world, an average outdoorsman like myself has to squeeze a busy schedule just to find time to slug it out on the public lands and small tracts of private property that one has been lucky enough to garner permission to enter. I`m sure that many of you out there can relate to this. 

That`s one of my reasons for this project. I want to give some insight into the other side of outdoor adventures, the side not often seen in the hunting and fishing shows on the T.V. While we may scrimp and save to charter a boat, or take a guided hunt, I don`t own a big vessel to run around offshore in, or large acres of private land to hunt on.

I`ve been fishing as long as I can remember, and hunting crowded public lands for decades. Long enough to be able to offer some tips and tactics to help those getting started fill the stringer, or perhaps even hang their tag on a nice Tom Turkey, or a nice doe for the freezer, under the most crowded, high pressure conditions you could imagine.

 In the video below, you can join Mike on an early season archery hunt. He takes his shot as it's getting dark, and is not sure that he's made a good hit. After an appropriate wait, the trail is taken. The trail proves difficult to follow, and results in the deer being jumped from it's bed in the middle of the night. During the entire experience, he reviews tips and tactics for tracking wounded deer. Tips that result in the deer being recovered. This video will benefit novice and seasoned hunters alike recover their game!
