bushjill+FollowDon’t cook pheasant like chickenRuined my first two birds before learning this! Pheasant is way leaner than store chicken, so it dries out super fast. The flavor is amazing though - richer and more earthy with that subtle gamey taste. Breast meat goes from tender to tough in minutes if overcooked. Now I brine overnight and cook low with moisture. What's your go-to method for keeping pheasant juicy? #hunting #PheasantCooking #GameMeat #WildGameCooking 153Share
Manuel Bright+FollowWhere Do Hogs Hide After Dark? 🌒Pigs LOVE hanging around dams at night! Even dried creek beds work - they sleep in that cool sand all day. My best success comes from scouting tracks and rooting signs first, then checking crop fields (wheat, canola, soy) and fence lines on farm land. Pro tip: they rarely venture far from water sources! Where do you find success? #hunting #hoghunting #nighthunting #hogwild ##huntingtips #fieldtofork246Share
Manuel Bright+FollowI trust the wind more than my camoAfter 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 #outdoors512Share
jortiz+FollowDo we really need to hike miles for elk?I used to believe hiking miles in was the only way to find elk. But last season, I started seeing more sign—and more success—within a mile of the truck. Anyone else dial it back and still tag out? #hunting #ElkHunting #huntingtips #Outdoor 6127Share
Eric Ford+FollowAnyone actually catch anything with traps?Been reading up on trapping lately and got curious—any older hunters here still setting traps? Would love to hear what you’ve used, what worked, and any tips you’d pass down. #hunting #HuntingTips #WildlifeTrapping2819Share
bushjill+FollowWe talk hunting, but trapping made me betterLast winter was only my third trapping season, but I learned more in that cold week than I have in some entire deer seasons. Setting cable restraints, reading subtle signs, hiking two miles daily just to find a knocked-down set or one stubborn raccoon—it forced me to slow down and really understand how animals move. Trapping sharpened my patience and totally changed how I read the woods. It’s way more technical than I expected, but also incredibly rewarding. I still love hunting, but trapping taught me a different kind of discipline. Curious how others compare the two—what’s been more valuable for you? #hunting #trapping #outdoors 332Share
Eric Ford+FollowAny luck squirrel hunting in summer?Anyone here actually hunt squirrels in the summer? Curious if it’s worth it—and if so, got any tips for finding them in the heat? #hunting #squirrelhunting #huntingtips #summerhunt3611Share
Eric Ford+FollowAlmost had my first public land buck! Year 2 of self-taught public land hunting in Ohio and I'm still learning the hard way! Spent most of last season sitting 1.5+ miles from the car, sunrise to noon routine. Saw deer 3 times but never close enough for a shot. Then at 10am while just scouting near a pond, a shooter buck comes GALLOPING past me at 10 yards! I'm fumbling with shells, following his trail around the pond... and end up scaring off a rabbit and some doves instead 😅 3 more hours of walking = nothing. Public land will humble you every time! #hunting #deerhunting #Outdoors 30Share
