  • Tom Alford is still hunting hard during the dog days of deer season. After doing some in-season scouting, he's heading to a spot with an idea of what might go down, but he has no idea what's about to happen!

    Thanks for a great season. I just started bow hunting last fall and you guys proved to be an amazing resource. Loved all the video content and can't wait to start next season fresh with you guys. In the meantime, you can bet that I'll be checking the video library to up my knowledge so I can tag that first deer next season. Thanks!!

    Hello you guys were talking about watering holes for the deer to be able to drink water to keep them used to people is to go into those places and keep the ice cracked for them and they'll get used to your presence in the woods and as far as there traveling habits that changes all year round and that's the best part of being a good hunter is knowing exactly where they are and when they are there too and I'm not talking about using these cameras either I'm talking being in the woods constantly scouting them out too I myself personally won't even consider hunting a place until I locate and learn there movements through the years time its like becoming one with the animal that you are going after and after you do kill it you don't leave it until you have it in your hands regestured and in the freezer too have a great day now awesome buck
