Book: Congratulations on the doe! Your experience was very similar to mine. It is just too hot to hunt comfortably in Alabama right now. In answer to the question, a chigger is a tiny red insect that is active during warm weather. When they get on you, nothing happens for 24-30 hours. Then you devel...

Bare bones sight
When I bought my Exocet 3 years ago, out of ignorance, I bought the package that included a Maxzone scope. Stupid and ignorant, I hunted with it for almost 2 seasons until someone told me that it was illegal (and still is) to use a magnifying device on a bow in Alabama. This year, I investigated the...

mosquitoes-what do you do to protect yourself?
Last Saturday afternoon I had the worst problem with mosquitoes I have ever suffered through. I was wearing a Shannons Bug tamer jacket, and it protected me from 99% of the beasts. The other 1% almost drove me crazy. Have any of you come up with a better solution? Striper

Stump: this is a Weatherby rifle and round. You can get the ballistic data off the Weatherby website. The rifle belongs to a friend of mine, and was originally a wildcat round that Weatherby picked up after ported barrels and better recoil pads became popular. No kidding, it kicks less than my 7 Mag...

The Alabama Conservation Department indicates that the ratio of does/bucks is 5 to 7 to 1 in our state. St...
