lolson+FollowHow I got coyotes to finally come in 🐺Been getting into coyote hunting more last season and wanted to share a few calling tips that have helped me see better results: 1️⃣ Start with locator howls to find them before switching to distress calls 2️⃣ Keep distress calls short - 15-30 second bursts with pauses, not constant noise 3️⃣ Position with wind at your back so they approach into your scent 4️⃣ Wait 20-30 minutes between sequences - patience beats overcalling every time Pup distress calls during spring have been incredibly effective when nothing else works. Used to call way too much and spook them. What's your go-to calling sequence that actually brings them in? #hunting #CoyoteHunting #PredatorCalling #HuntingTips297Share
lolson+FollowHog behavior tips: hunt smarter, not harder 🐗Noticed some patterns while tracking hogs lately—figured I’d share. Sows and piglets usually move in groups (sounders), but those big solo roamers? Might be a mature boar worth tracking. Makes a difference when deciding how to set up. Anyone else noticed this in their hunts? #hunting #HogHunting #WildBoar #HuntingTips #SounderStrategy80Share
paulcarol+FollowMy DIY Deer Watering Hole Tripled Buck Traffic!Been meaning to add a water source on my property, finally gave it a go this spring. Here's what worked: 1️⃣ Found a natural low spot under tree cover - holds water way better than exposed areas 2️⃣ Kept it shallow (2-3 feet) with sloped edges so deer can drink when levels drop 3️⃣ Used a kiddie pool liner - cheap and effective! 4️⃣ Added logs and rocks to blend it in naturally 5️⃣ Always include an escape branch for small animals Trail cam shows constant activity now. Anyone else tried building water sources? What's worked best for you? #hunting #deerhunting #HuntingTips #HuntingPrep362Share

lolson+Follow🐿️ Best time to chase squirrels in summer?Just figured out the secret to successful squirrel hunting this summer! Early morning (first 2 hours after sunrise) and late evening (last 2 hours before sunset) are absolute GOLD. That's when they're most active and you'll have the best luck. Been testing this timing for weeks and the difference is night and day compared to midday hunts. Who else has found this to be true? #hunting #SquirrelHunting #HuntingTips #SummerHunting250Share

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
tyler79+FollowDon’t hunt birds with a crossbow 🏹🚫Honestly wouldn't recommend a crossbow for small game or birds - you'll be breaking bolts left and right and it's overkill. BB gun or pellet rifle is way more practical and cheaper to shoot. Also check your local laws first! Some places have restrictions on crossbow hunting depending on season and game type. #hunting #pelletgun #SmallGameHunting #HuntingTips #HuntingGear101Share
