Question: I live in Michigan’s lower peninsula and recently purchased a property in the upper peninsula. I love hunting up there but have had a hard time patterning deer.I’ve always looked for food and bedding and then found their paths in between. However, where I am in the UP, there are no significant mast crops or ag. The deer primarily feed on browse in the cedar swamps and maple stands that exist in this area. Therefore, everything around them is a potential food source and they don’t have to travel to get a meal.My question is, with the absence of…

Giannis will tell us. 00:00:29 Speaker 2: It’s a better than ever time to get that suppressor you’ve been looking for. Trump generated something of a national eye roll by renaming Lake…

A lot of state’s bow openers will start in a matter of days. Just because deer season opens doesn’t mean the thermostat will drop. Prime velvet destinations or states with September openers might include hot, buggy conditions. While these aren’t ideal deer hunting conditions, that doesn’t mean you can’t find success, you just might have to sweat a good bit to do it.Hot weather hunting isn’t easy, and it definitely isn’t always fun. It has a way of perpetuating common deer hunting myths that makes many hunters feel better about sitting out the early season. If you’re not careful, you…

If you need proof that the competition for duck hunting honey holes can lead to toxic—and potentially lethal—behavior, here it is. On August 28, 2026, 23-year-old Carson McKoin of Monroe, Louisiana, was convicted in federal court for assaulting U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service agents.

There is a lot going on right now related to our national parks and wilderness areas and forests and the like. Serious change is underway. And even for me, someone whose job it is to stay up on this stuff, It is nearly impossible to keep track of it all and what’s real and what’s not and what’s actually important. The thing is, if you hunt or fish or…
