lolson+FollowNight Hog Hunt: My Essential Gear List 🌙Just wrapped up another successful night hunt! Here's what I've learned about gearing up for nocturnal hog hunting: 1️⃣ Night Vision & Thermals: Spot those hogs in the dark! Thermals for heat, night vision for light. 2️⃣ Sound Suppression: Keep it quiet with suppressors to avoid spooking your prey. 3️⃣ Hog Lights: Use red or green lights sparingly to stay stealthy. 4️⃣ Right Clothing: Lightweight, moisture-wicking, and protective gear is a must. Also—check your state’s laws first! Happy hunting! 🐗 #hunting #nighthunting #hoghunting #OutdoorGear50Share
paulcarol+Follow🦻 Ear-Safe Hunting Gear Exists?Been hunting since '97, but this season really did me in. Multiple shots with my 300wsm left me with tinnitus for months. Need protection that still lets me hear leaves crunching. Any recommendations? #hunting #tinnitus #hearingprotection #gunhunting #huntingveteran10Share

mmoore+FollowWhat do y’all do in the off-season? 🥱Curious what veteran hunters do when it’s not hunting season—tune gear? scout? or just fish and relax? #hunting #offseason #huntinglife #huntingcommunity1510Share
Eric Ford+FollowNew Hunter - How Do I Ask Landowners? 🤔Just got my license but tired of crowded public spots. Veterans - what's your best advice for approaching private landowners? Feeling nervous about that first conversation! #hunting #privateland #huntingtips #newhunter27Share
paulcarol+FollowHow I got access to hunt private land! 🦌Just scored permission on my dream property after years of rejections! The secret? It's not about what you ask for – it's HOW you ask. Key moves that worked: 1️⃣Showed up in person (not camo!) - built real rapport first 2️⃣Offered to help with fence repairs and predator control 3️⃣Brought references from other landowners 4️⃣Created a simple hunting agreement to show I'm serious 5️⃣Always shared meat from successful hunts The game-changer? I spent time learning about their land challenges before even asking to hunt. One farmer was dealing with wild hogs destroying crops - offered to help control them and got year-round access! Remember: reputation is everything in small communities. One "yes" often leads to introductions with neighbors. #hunting #privateland #deerhunting #huntingtips #landowner #huntingaccess2436Share
Manuel Bright+FollowDon’t let dull blades ruin your shot! 🏹Made this mistake once - didn't clean my broadheads after a hunt and they were ruined by the next season! Now I always: - Clean off blood/tissue immediately - Blow out dirt and hair - Sharpen fixed blades with proper tools - Replace mechanical blades when needed - Store in protective cases Clean broadheads = reliable deployment and razor sharpness when it counts! What's your maintenance routine? #hunting #bowhunting #archery #broadheads #huntingtips #huntinggear92Share
Manuel Bright+FollowDull Broadheads Cost You Deer. Here's Why.Lost my first deer last season with a dull broadhead - never again! Sharp broadheads cut clean through arteries, creating massive blood loss for quick, ethical kills. Dull ones? They might kill eventually, but you'll have weak blood trails and potentially lose your animal. My rule: If it's not scalpel-sharp, it doesn't go in my quiver. Better tracking, faster kills, more ethical harvests. #hunting #bowhunting #archery #ethicalhunting #broadheads40Share
lolson+FollowWhy My Hog Hunts Keep Failing 😤Turns out feral hogs have INSANE noses! Been getting busted constantly until I learned these stealth tactics: ✅ Always check wind direction ✅ Scent-free everything (gear, soaps, clothes) ✅ Walk quietly - avoid crunchy leaves/branches ✅ Tree stands work great (but scout first!) Trail cams are your best friend for finding fresh pig signs before committing to a spot. #hunting #hoghunting #stealthhunting #huntingtips #nighthunting92Share
