Sheep hunting is tough. I don't mean a couple of hours packed out across a challenging saddle kind of tough. I'm talking about hunting at high elevations, where even your mental fortitude and patience will determine the outcome of your hunt (that's if you can get a tag in the first place). 

There's nothing quite like a sunrise burning off the early morning mist of the first waterfowl hunt of the season while you wait patiently for a morning flight. Across the country, a rich tradition and dedicated group of hunters maintain the legacy and popularity of waterfowl hunting, even cutting into the precious whitetail season to chase ducks and geese instead.

Within the Minnesota hunting community, you'll encounter a group of waterfowl hunters who are deeply passionate about the goose hunting season and all that it offers. Goose hunting takes you to some stunning locations and allows you to maintain a connection to the past, sharpen up hunting skills, and access a sustainable and deeply nutrient-dense food source. 

If you could carry five expert tips with you into the fall hunting season — whether you're hunting deer, turkey, dove, or other big game — what would be most valuable to you?

Mississippi is a special deer-hunting state. If you want to harvest trophy bucks, you'll find them here, or if you want to fill your freezer with free-range game meat, then there are plenty of chances to do that, too.

I've been deer hunting for as long as I can remember. However, until I was an adult, I only ever rifle hunted. Even more, I only rifle-hunted the same two permanent deer blinds on the same property. There's nothing wrong with taking this approach, but the older I got, the more I wanted from my hunting experience.
