Huntin’ Time Expo/My Lack of Posts
It's absolutely no secret that I've been neglectful of this blog lately. Some evidence: I never posted a few of the deer that Justin shot. I didn't post anything about Jeff, Barry, Erin, and Josh heading down to the ATA show in Columbus a little over a week ago. And I've never posted anything about the fact that SimplyOutdoors TV will be airing on the Pursuit Channel starting in January 2...
End of Deer Season: Maybe I Stink
Last night I cleaned my muzzleloader.  And though I usually love the feeling that comes with cleaning any firearm, last night's cleaning kind of depressed me a little, because it was a sure sign that another deer season had passed and that I had once again went through an entire season without putting any venison in the freezer. As I was cleaning and reflecting back on the last couple of seaso...
Bittersweet Hunt: The Rest of the Story
In my previous post, I eluded to the fact that my miss last Sunday morning was only the beginning of a very memorable morning.  Here is the "rest of the story". After my miss, it was still only a little after 8am, so Jeff and I decided that we might as well stick it out for a little while and see if any other deer decided they wanted to eat out of his food plot. And that is when the weirdne...
Bittersweet Hunt
Though I had only been able to hunt a handful of times, the fact remained that I hadn't laid eyes on a deer since around October 8th.  It was making it pretty difficult to head into the woods, because I honestly wasn't sure if I was ever going to see a deer again; I was starting to wonder if I had a deer whistle permanently embedded within my body that was preventing them from coming within a hal...
Another Deer for Jeff
While I don't have much to celebrate when it comes to deer hunting, after tonight I can bask in at least one thing:  that I told Jeff about Hornady SST's, and that, because of my wisdom, Jeff was able to put down this big doe without fear of his bullet coming apart. Congrats to Jeff.  Welcome to the dark side, and say goodbye to Powerbelts.    

Local Trophy Room

This post is strictly about promotion.  A little while back I put up a post that promoted one of my friend’s local Michigan based outdoor website.  The MichiganOutdoorguide.com is an awesome resource for local outdoors(man and woman) to find area businesses that can help with outdoor related activities.The site originally started as a way for Michiganders to find local deer processors, bait shops, and taxidermists, but has since expanded into being an all encompassing resource for everything outdoors in Michigan. 

This particular post is mainly to plug one new feature of the site.  That feature is the Trophy Room.  We are looking for local trophies from Michigan to be submitted to the site so that they can be featured on the site and also be available for other hunters, and non-hunters alike, to enjoy.  The site features a searchable database so not only will you be able to find trophies in Michigan, but will also be able to search for trophies by your particular county.  The problem is that we need people to submit their trophies (trophy is in the eye of the beholder I might add).  For now the site is strictly looking for deer shot in 2007, but it is possible as time goes on that this will expand.  For now though we ask that only ’07 trophies be submitted.

I’m not trying to alienate my faithful readers from other states, but I have to support my own and this is one way of doing that.  For those of you who are from Michigan (Kristine, Mike) please help me spread the word and get this information out there so that all of us can enjoy a few local trophies from our neighborhoods.

  1. I’ve been meaning to go check this site out. I’ll go take a look.

  2. Just wanted to say I did my part and wrote a post on the GSI blog spotlighting some Michigan bloggers. One of the ones I forgot to mention was Claude Pollington. I did spotlight some of the others though.
