    He says he's ready

    I love it! That reminds me of when I took my oldest son with me for the first time. We were sitting in a two-man ladder stand and he was scanning every inch of the woods with my binos. He said, "Daddy! I see a deer.....Or maybe it is a log." And about five minutes later, "Daddy! I see a...

    the right scope

    BB, I, too, am in a scope quest right now. I can give you some general information regarding the scopes you are pursuing. I have no Weaver, Nikon or Burris experience, but I own a Clearidge XP 4.5-14X40, a Sightron Big Sky 3-9X42, and I have a hunting buddy with a Bushnell 4-16X40 4200...

    Georgia White Tails

    First of all I was born and raised in Georgia and have never lived anywhere else. Secondly, I am a wildlife biologist and I can tell you that what you heard is very misleading. The annual bag limit for deer in GA is 12 per hunter. In counties that do not have antler restrictions this...
