Why are deer antlers worth so much?

Seriously curious - what makes deer antlers valuable? Is it just for crafts or something more? Anyone know the market? #hunting #deerantlers #antlers

Why I switched to the .350 legend

Started with a 450 Bushmaster - accurate as hell but zero fun to shoot. Made deer very dead though! My trusty 12 gauge Wingmaster never misses but maxes out around 150 yards. Just picked up a .350 Legend and I'm pumped to try it this season. Planning to hunt suppressed for the first time. Thing shoots incredibly tight groups - friends say it's like the 6.5 Creedmoor of straight-walled cartridges. Anyone else hunting with .350 Legend? How's it perform on deer? #hunting #HuntingRifles #350Legend #DeerHunting

Wild hog meat tastes gamey to anyone else? 🐗

Do y'all eat the hogs you hunt? Mine always taste weird and a little gamey. Am I doing something wrong? #hunting #hoghunting #wildgame #gamemeat

I trust the wind more than my camo

After years in the woods, I’ve learned one thing: wind trumps camo every time. You can blend in perfectly, but if they catch your scent, it’s game over. Agree? #hunting #huntingtips #windmatters #outdoors

Don’t lose your deer! My blood trailing hacks win

Last fall, I made what looked like a perfect shot on a buck just before sunset. But once I got down, the real work began—tracking. That trail taught me more than any article ever could. If you're newer to blood trailing (or just want to up your odds), here are a few tips I now swear by: 📱 Track your route with an app like onX—it shows where you’ve been and helps spot patterns. 🩸 Physically mark blood with tape or tissue in case weather or time messes with visibility. 🚶 Don’t rush—only move forward once you’ve spotted the next drop. 🌿 Check higher vegetation, not just the ground—exit wounds don’t always drip. 👀 Notice drop shape—a ragged edge often points the direction the deer went. 🔍 Keep scanning ahead—you might spot the deer before you step on your next clue. Happy tracking and good luck this season! #hunting #bloodtrail #deerhunting #huntingtips #Outdoors

Meat hunter here - do trophy guys judge us?

Curious about the hunting community's thoughts - is there actually tension between trophy and meat hunters? And are some hunters opposed to predator hunting? Where do you fall on these debates? #hunting #TrophyVsMeat #Outdoors

🌱 Why hunting actually helps the planet

Had someone question my hunting ethics yesterday, so here's the real talk on why hunting benefits our environment: 1️⃣ It helps control overpopulated species, cutting down crop damage and car collisions. 2️⃣ Targeting invasives like wild boar protects native wildlife and habitats. 3️⃣ Harvesting your own meat means less reliance on factory farming—lower carbon, less cruelty. Curious if others got into hunting for similar reasons? #hunting #EthicalHunting #WildlifeBalance

🤷‍♂️ Do You Really Need Earpro for Hunting?

Maybe unpopular opinion: I fire one shot max per hunt, sometimes zero. Why is everyone obsessed with hearing protection for hunting? Range time, absolutely. But hunting? Are you guys shooting that much in the field? #hunting #hearingprotection #deerhunting #huntinglife

Anyone actually made marmot taste decent?

Shot my first marmot this weekend and holy crap, the smell hit me like a truck. Rancid doesn't even cover it. Before I toss this thing, has anyone figured out how to make these edible? Need serious cooking advice here. #hunting #marmothunting #MarmotCooking #gamemeat

Why I still hunt with my first rifle

I was cleaning out my safe the other day and picked up the old .270 I’ve used since my first deer season. Got me thinking—no matter how many rifles I try, I always come back to this one. It’s not the most advanced, but it’s reliable, and the memories it carries are worth more than any upgrade. Anyone else feel the same about their first deer rifle? Or have you moved on to something newer? #hunting #huntinggear #deerSeason
