I just picked up the book "Act of Valor" this weekend and look forward to reading it before I see the movie.....didn't know it was written by Tom Clancy!

Hey dukhntn, I found myself in a similar situation about 7 years ago. I had access to 3 pieces of property that all had decent turkey numbers, and I decided that I wanted to learn how to hunt them by myself. Having access to property with turkeys is very important, obviously. You must hunt where the...

The opening week I was seeing 5 to 10 deer from the stand on every hunt, but last week I hunted a total of 4 times and did not see a deer, so yeah, I'm experiencing the exact same thing down in the Vicksburg area. I too have been blaming it on the moon and the heat (and the skeetters! Man are they t...

Hey Ben, I had the pleasure of hunting beside a dog the second weekend of the dove season, Sept 10 & 11, who went on to win the NMBRC Trial that was held the weekend of the 24th, I believe. His name is Harvey from Sporting Life Kennels in Oxford. Marty is training my dog & he brought Harvey ...

gps4, I certainly am not an expert & don't kow if any water quality testing has been done, but the concern of water treatement plant overflow should not be a problem in Eagle Lake since it flooded from the Yazoo Backwater and not the Mississippi River. The water in the YBW is all local rainfall ...

Bass Pro has one thru Bank of America, but it isn't nearly as good as Cabela's. At Cabela's you never loose your points, and they are redeemable thru the catalogue as well as at the store. Whereas at Bass Pro, you can only use them in the store, and they are lost if not used within a certain time fr...

Be careful over in Lake Providence, LA as well. I got a ticket right there in front of the police station where the speed limit goes from 35 to 25, for going 35 in a 25.....better slow down fast and before you get to the sign. When I called in to the clerk to see how much it was, she offered to make...

Hey Rick, Thanks for all of your help on this project and our other one that you have helped on. With right at 130 men on the Yazoo Backwater Erosion COntrol Project, we completed the installation of all 4 miles of fabric in 3 days and should have all the sand bags in place by noon tomorrow, then ju...

Hey Black Dog, I had the same thing happen to me, but look closely on the effective dates. Mine had the big '09-'10 printed on it, but then it showed the effective dates as September 3, 2010 to September 2, 2011, so I'm ok with it.

Ever read Hemingway's Old Man and the Sea?

Hey Wingman, I was talking to a farmer last week who was cutting soybeans in the Anquilla area and he said he kept seeing doves jump up from down in the beans as he approached. He said finally he got off the combine and looked and there were nests on the ground with eggs in them. He said he must of ...

+1 on the wedges....that's what I always use, and don't drive them too tight becasue the wood is going to swell & hard to remove.

Not only is Borrello's closed, but Charles Borrillo was killed in a car wreck about a month or so ago. Also, the old hwy 80 bridge has been closed for 10 or more years, you can only cross on I-20. If you want to stay in a casino hotel, Diamond Jacks has the best view of the River. Get a suite up on ...

So who hunted at Mahanna Saturday morning? I hunt several miles from there & I haven't heard shooting like that all year. Must've been a great morning!

Gator, I always thought that a true friend was not the guy who comes to bail you out of jail, but rather the guy who is sitting there next to you in the jail cell saying "man, wasn't that fun"!
