All year long, we wait for hunting season to arrive, only for it to seemingly end as soon as it's getting started. Our offseasons were full of scouting and preparation. In season, we're constantly learning and adjusting to chase our quarry, looking for fresh signs and recent patterns that will help us be successful in the pursuit of game.

Squirrels, rabbits, and other small game offer unique opportunities to build hunting skills while managing animal populations and harvesting meat. With the proper equipment and guidance, you can improve your shots and minimize damage.

Coyotes have been steadily expanding their range in the Eastern U.S. for the past century, filling a void left by gray and eastern wolves. Without those larger canids around, coyotes have made themselves at home in the woods, fields, and even cities.

Just as a builder knows when to use the right tool, a hunter should know how to choose the right firearm for their intended game. Different shotguns will deliver different results in the range and out in the field.

Many avid whitetail hunters shift their focus to coyote hunting in winter. This time of year is generally referred to as the deer hunters' "off-season," and hunting coyotes after the whitetail season can be helpful for several reasons.

December is almost over, and it is probably safe to say that the majority of whitetails have hit the brakes. But there's still time to get out and hunt some blizzard bucks before the late-season ends!

Being ready when the ducks start piling into your decoy spread at first light begins with choosing the right shotgun for the job. Picking the "best" shotgun that fits your shoulders, allows you to swing cleanly, and matches your hunting style will make your next cold morning in the duck blind more enjoyable.

Late-season deer hunting efforts often include a mixed bag of opportunities for mature bucks. Focusing on food, warmth, and less pressure can be the shift in strategy that helps those hours in the cold pay off.

After the grunts and bleats of the rut turn silent, deer shift their attention to recuperation and rest. During this critical period, food sources for late-season deer must do more than replace fat reserves. They must also replenish minerals and vitamins, build the deer's immune system for the upcoming winter, and promote overall conditioning.

What do you do after deer season ends? The best hunters treat hunting like a professional sport, and they keep hunting to stay sharp. Coyote hunting is a great way to do this.

If you've ever dealt with hog-related damage to your yard, food plots, or feeders, you already understand why hunting invasive species can be personal. Across the southern and western US, feral hogs have turned neighborhoods, wildlands, and farmlands into battlegrounds.

In most cases, yes, hunters can hunt WPAs (Waterfowl Production Areas). However, before you assume you can, keep reading (and do your research on the rules).
