I shot this button buck Saturday night while sitting at the base of a giant oak tree. Three does came out of the cedars earlier that evening, but they were about 155 yards away and moving at a pretty good clip. Then this young deer came out, and when he finally moved out from behind a couple trees in front of me, he stopped quartering toward me and gave me a shot at about 75 yards.
I don’t prefer to hunt with a muzzleloader, but the December season seems to be about the only time I get the opportunity to hunt deer. The shot rang and after a moment of blindness, the smoke cleared. I saw the deer bolt about 50 yards to my right. I thought I’d missed him, but as he approached a couple lone cedar trees in the open, he made a sharp, confused U-turn, and then crashed down into the dry creek bed to the north. I almost expected him to get up and continue running over the hill, or slip away down the dry bed.
Trembling, I reloaded my gun. If he was there, I needed to give him time to die with
DON’T ABANDON OTHER FOODS
There’s no question deer migrate to oaks when acorns start falling, but even when a majority of their diet consists of acorns, they eat other food.
"I have a couple of food plots adjacent to some mature white oaks,” Giles said. “I see deer feeding in the plots all the time, even when there is a good acorn crop. They don’t spend nearly as much time in the food plots when there are lots of acorns, but they will certainly stop for a few bites of clover or oats on their way to or from acorns.”
The edges of bean fields also are worth hunting, but find an oak dropping acorns on the edge of that bean field and you’ve found a potential hotspot. Isolated fruit trees, native and planted, draw deer throughout the early autumn, too. Sandiford likes to find fruit-bearing persimmon trees near oaks.
“If you can get a combination of foods in a small area, you’ve got a real good place to hang a stand,” he said.
Hunting during an epic acorn crop can drive you nuts, but the
The best ways to keep your pets cool this summer
A lot of us are excited about the warmer temperatures, which means more time outside with our furry friends.
Experts say to keep our pets safe from the heat, walk your dog early in the morning or later in the evening when the temperatures are cooler. Limit their time outside when it’s especially hot out and keep them hydrated.
Never leave your dog inside the car, even if you have a quick trip inside a store. A car can heat up quickly in just a few minutes.
We have shoes to protect our feet but our pets don’t have that option, so don’t walk them on the hot pavement which can badly burn their paws. Instead, walk in grassy areas.
If they are overheated, cool them off underneath their armpits, chest, and ears. If they will drink water, give them lukewarm, not ice-cold water because you don’t want to shock their system and get them to a vet as soon as possible.
If it’s just simply too hot for those walks, there are plenty of ways to giv
Dogs are our friends, guardians, and, at one time, providers. Dogs and their owners hunted together 20,000 years ago, and some continue to do so today. Man no longer depends on wild game for survival, but hunting still has a place in the modern world. While agricultural improvements and the domestication of livestock lessened our dependence on hunting for survival, in its place, hunting for sport evolved. Even though hunting can be a controversial subject, there are many man-dog partnerships that participate in the sport in a respectful, responsible fashion that strengthens their bond.
🆕 New for the season: one destination – 2 types of Capra.
Tajikistan 🇹🇯
It was an adventure worth fighting with inclement weather, cold winds, altitude, difficult route and long journeys.
During one hunting tour, 2 trophies were obtained: Bukhara and Pamir ibex.
💯 Classic genre: long drive, difficult climb, good shooting skills and love pilaf.
Congratulations to Steven, great job 👏
➡️ What's good about the combination: one trip, no visa required, easy to get a gun, one period of time is good for both subspecies.

Vi tager frisk kød af en stor krokodille, uden ben og skind, og skærer det i små stykker, cirka 2 x 2 cm store.
Bland kødstykkerne med tørt hvidløg og finthakket ingefær, hæld soyasauce med pebersovs og øl i.
Vi sætter alt dette i køleskabet i 6 - 12 timer. Hak zucchini, sød peber, auberginer, svampe og løg groft.
Bland: Olivenolie, vineddike, presset hvidløg, sort peber og salt. Bland det hele med grøntsager og lad det stå i 30 minutter
Derefter snor vi krokodillekødet på bambusspyd og også grøntsager på spyd separat.
Tænd grillen og lad kullene brænde på, rens grillristen med en stålbørste og smør med olivenolie.
Steg krokodillekødet på grillen i ca 10 - 12 minutter, vend indimellem, steg grøntsagerne i ca 5 - 6 minutter.
Det er det, tag det af grillen og server.
Shooting practice
Answering the question of where to start hunting for a beginner, it is worth mentioning such an important aspect as shooting training. In this direction, there are many recommendations, various formulas and schemes: how to determine the distance of a shot by the size of an object, how many bodies of a moving bird to measure forward, how to make a takeaway for preemptive and other theory. However, all this knowledge can be safely thrown into the basket if the hunter uses a lot of time for aiming. Remember that no one can instantly calculate the anticipation, taking into account the distance to the object, as well as its size, density and humidity, along with wind gusts.
Tips for beginners. What caliber should I start with?
Many experts recommend starting with the twelfth, because it releases a lot of fractions to hit a moving target, but does not spoil the trophy qualities of the prey. Over time, it is recommended to reduce the caliber. In a couple of years, replace your weapon with a lighter one. This will save a lot of money on consumables (gunpowder, shot).
Remember that the right barrel, as a rule, is "pay", that is, it scatters the fraction over the area, and the left "choke" gives a more hefty shot. That is, from a close distance it is necessary to press the trigger that is closer to the butt.
Hunting in the Karoo: Geography and Natural Features, Hunting Demographics, and Game Species Diversity
Geography and Natural Features
The Karoo spans large parts of the Western and Northern Cape provinces, offering a distinctive semi-arid landscape defined by endless plains, rugged koppies (rocky hills), and wide horizons. Dry riverbeds, low vegetation, and rocky ridges dominate the terrain, making it an ideal environment for spot-and-stalk plains game hunting. The region’s high visibility and open spaces create long-range shooting conditions and a deeply immersive wilderness feel.
Hunting Demographics
Karoo hunting farms attract both South African and international hunters looking for an authentic, challenging experience. Most visitors are seasoned hunters in search of a genuine fair-chase environment, but the region also suits determined first-timers due to its abundance of game and supportive guiding culture. Family-run farms and ethical outfitters add a personal dimension, rei
