    How Long Before New Dog?

    I lost my girl dog three months ago and it was devastating. She was my best buddy. We have one dog left (10 year old lab), but he is "my wife's". Don't get me wrong, I love that old guy and he is great. When my girl died I told myself I wasn't interested in getting another dog. Over the...

    It's getting worse every year.

    Well, I punched my rifle deer tag on Saturday and put an end to my deer hunting season. It's always bitter sweet to be done right? I'm actually a bit sad I'm not going to be able to hunt deer anymore this year. But, here's the thing. I'm already obsessing over next year. Looking at maps of...

    Wildlife Photography.

    I've really gotten into wildlife photography over the past couple of years. I suppose it is a natural progression for someone who loves cameras and spends a lot of time outside. Anyone else make a hobby out of "hunting" with a lens? Here are some of my favorites.

    Losing my best friend.

    Guys, I'm struggling. I'm a tough guy. I've lost people. I've been through hard times personally. But right now, I am falling apart. The past two weeks we've noticed that our 8 year old female lab was drinking way more than usual. She had also developed a skin infection on her leg that just...

    I wrote a semi cheesy little kids book for my sons.

    So there I was this Christmas, looking for a gift for my little kids that would feel personal and have something to do with hunting, because well, I really like hunting. I don't know if other people do this, but when I'm on hunting trips and away from my family, I feel pretty guilty. It's like...

    Dakota Bowl XXX

    Not much better than small-town North Dakota football. As an old Aggie, I’d love to see coach Sandy go out on one last championship. Let’s go Aggies!

    Something Positive For a Change.

    I feel like once again, the negative in our little outdoors world is taking the spotlight, so I wanted to share something positive. A few weeks back our group, Prairie Grit Outdoors, brought two adaptive hunters on an antelope hunt in Wyoming. As we pulled up to the ranch we had permission to...

    Outdoor Magazine Articles

    Last week I was in a doctors office and picked up an outdoors magazine. As I paged through it I realized that I didn't like or relate to anything in the dang thing. Well, I've been taught that a complaint without a possible solution is useless. So, I decided to try my hand at writing and...

    Norton 360 ad

    Has anyone else had the Norton 360 banner ad, and if you have, does it say your name, or is it just coincidence that it says mine? I've had ads try to sell me stuff I've pretty much only thought about before, but never have any personal information.

    My 2019 Moose Hunt.

    I'll be honest. I thought this tag would be easy. I even remember saying the words "this isn't even a hunt, it's more of a harvest." I was wrong, very wrong. Though this hunt wasn't physically demanding, it wore on me mentally and emotionally. I'm not sure how many days it took me to finally...
