Hunting With Springers, a Spring Tradition
You wouldn’t know we’re in to spring based on the weather….. I flew back from an overseas trip this weekend and we had to pass right over Minneapolis because of a major storm, a blizzard actually that dropped about 8″ of snow. I ended up being dropped in Cincinnati,but finally 26 hours after leaving Copenhagen … Continue reading

Took the Bantam Squirrel Hunting!
Hello All, After a short break, I’m back at it! The beginning of this month was the squirrel season opener up in my norther neck of the woods, and I laid down my fishing rods (especially tenkara) and started hunting again.

Prepping the Renegade for Hunting Season!
I spent the weekend shooting the Daystate Renegade, the second bullpup design out of this great airgun manufacturing powerhouse.

Another Favorite: The Daystate Huntsman!
I am getting a lot of squirrel hunting in this year, having lined up four different farms that are a 15-45 minute drive from my house. These spots don’t get much small game pressure, and the populations of gray and fox squirrels are good. At two of these properties I’ve only seen gray squirrels, at … Continue reading
Aberts Down for Squirrel Hunting Grand Slam!
I was at the EBR in Phoenix over the weekend, and though I didn’t shoot (because of scheduling conflicts) enjoyed my time there.
