When I’m watching outdoor television, there is nothing that gets under my skin more than hearing the person in front of the camera say something like this:
“Well……we’re on our way to Battle Creek Outfitters to hunt for a few days. Jim, of BC Outfitters, has been watching a few bucks during the year, so hopefully we’ll have a chance at one of them in the next few days. We’re gonna get a shower, head into our stand, and hope for the best”.
What they really should be doing is telling the truth – something like this:

As the beginning notes of Round Here made contact with my auricles, I was in heaven; I had forgotten how incredible my Bose earphones were. I could hear every instrument in the song – the chords on the guitar; the intricate timing of the cymbals and snare; the keyboard quietly playing in the background. It was as if I was experiencing the song for the first time, though I had heard it many times before; it was as though I was finally experiencing the song the way the artists and producers intended it to be heard.
And that is what I believe immersing ourselves in nature does for life.

The SimplyOutdoors’ crew had a great time over the weekend – we got to converse with quite a few local Michigan residents, and we had a great time doing so. It’s always fun sharing stories with local hunters – and it was even fun talking with the non-hunters.
We were definitely happy to see the weather hold out for us, too. There was a chance of thunderstorms throughout the entire day, but, thankfully, we only experienced a little rain in the morning – the rest of the day was perfect and actually quite warm at times.

Anyone seen this nifty little feature?
Ram has came out with a new line of pickup trucks called the Outdoorsman, and they are specifically targeting the hunters and shooters amongst us with their new Mopar Rambox Holster: it can hold two shotguns or rifles in a lockable, watertight compartment on either side of the truck bed.
Pretty cool, if you ask me. Oh, and fishing rods will fit in there, too!

Last year, Jeff, as well as a few other family members, leased hunting property in Calhoun Co. I wasn’t really interested at the time, especially since I can hunt a few other properties for free – but, since they were down one person this year – he moved to Hawaii – I decided to drop the few hundred bucks and join them on the lease this year.
Friday night I headed to Menards, picked up a nice little 15ft stand, and on Saturday morning we headed over to the property in order to get the stand put up, as well as to show me the property lines, etc.
I was not disappointed.
