My son, Bob, didn't have a good start to his 2021 spring gobbler season. On opening day he chose to hunt with me at a spot where I had heard several gobblers prior to the season, including one the day before on a ridge where Bob likes to hunt. However, as we were setting up, I decided to move to a tree where I could see a little better. All experienced hunters know what happened: I bumped a gobbler out of a tree, and that "took care" of things. Bob's job prevents him from hunting much during...

As spring fights to replace winter at this time of year, many outdoor people look for patches of yellow in the gray duff along back roads and waste areas. These patches of yellow are small yellow coltsfoot flowers. Coltsfoot is a native of Europe and Asia and is rumored to have medicinal uses. However, around here it is mainly a non-native plant that adds splashes of bright color to an otherwise drab landscape. I look for the little dandelion-like flowers each spring. This year, I have noticed o...

One weekend not long ago, my son, Bob, and my wife, Donna, encouraged me to do a pair of things that needed to be done. For Christmas, Bob had bought me a new shotgun for turkey hunting to replace one that was having mechanical problems. To be ethical, a turkey hunter should target in his favorite shotgun to be certain that it will hit where he is pointing it so that he can make humane kills. It had been quite a few weeks since Christmas, and I hadn't gotten to it yet. Bob called me one...
