Trail Camera Pictures

I am receiving some awesome pictures of Big Bucks from hunters across southern Michigan. Last years top ten finalist Jim Strader, is once again excited about some of the trophy bucks posing for his Big Creek Co-op members. If one of the members connect with one of these top end trophies then their Co-Op may produce another top entry for their region or even the state.

Turkey Hunting Success

On May 16, 2010 at 4:20 PM I got my Tom Turkey using the Scout / Glass / Spot-in-Stalk / Aggressively Call (including gobbles) / Shotgun go Boom Method. I used a turkey choke and anchored him to a plowed field with 5 shot at 40 yards.

 My brother Jeff got a Tom during the first season using his Judge handgun loaded with a 4/10 shell  at 10 yards.

 How have you done?
