Got another opportunity to chase the big buck today and decided to take my bulldog and my .30 Maverick for squirrel. Still learning the notos I bought a couple weeks back but usually sit in one place while deer hunting so shots on squirrels well past 50 yards aren’t uncommon and I think the...

Went hunting on our new property for opening day of modern gun season. We’ve leased the property for many years but finally got the option to buy and we jumped because we’ve worked and watched the deer herd all year every year and know what kind of deer it keeps year after year. Lots of giant...

Well he isn’t the buck I wanted but after not getting one for the past two seasons I’d already made my mind up to shoot anything with 8 or more points. This little fella walked in around 4:50 pm after seeing only one doe with a four pointer on her heels across the field earlier in the day...

This is a few days after the hunt but just now getting time to post. I hunted both Saturday and Sunday this past weekend. The wind was horrible in Kentucky on Saturday and I only got three squirrels and only saw 4-5 total. That brought my Maverick tally to 19 for the season. Sunday was a better...

I just don’t use this gun like I thought I would. Functions flawlessly and very accurate with JSB 16 grain. I refinished the stock because the factory finish is just ugly in my opinion. Completely sanded the old finish off and stained with dark walnut minwax stain. Protected by several layers of...

Went squirrel hunting for the third time with my new Maverick .30 sniper. I loaded up my crossbow for deer and maverick for squirrels and headed to the woods Sunday. I switched ammo halfway through last weekends hunt due to having to take two follow up shots. I started out with hybrids but...

New price is $600 shipped. Looking to sale my SAM .22 with custom factory stock. I sanded the original finish off because I hate the looks and it’s super easy to scratch and mark up. I stained the stock with dark walnut stain and have sealed it up with multiple coats of tru oil. I just...

After I cracked the finish last hunting season out in the rain and snow I decided to do away with the factory look and go for a much better appearance. I sanded every little detail and worked hard to make sure it was perfect before I began staining. Used a dark walnut stain and let it soak in to...

Remembered the cheek piece this time! Put my cricket back together after sanding, staining, and sealing the factory wsa stock and couldn’t be happier. Figured today was a good day to see if the squirrels thought it looked nifty. Here’s the four that have ventured a little too close today so far...

Haven’t been able to take the time to post for a while. Between work, wife, and other responsibilities, my hunting time has been cut way down this year. I have been getting out here and there on the weekends and currently sitting in a tree waiting on a nice buck to walk by. I always carry my...

Was out hunting yesterday morning and noticed the snow looked like diamonds shimmering in the sunrise so I took a couple pictures. First outing with my .25 cricket since I switched to the synthetic stock for bad weather days. 

Received the replacement stock for my .25 cricket II last night. Before anything else I removed and re glued all of the magnets in the magazine storage and installed a picatinny rail. Two of the magnets had already pulled themselves out of their housings and I love a bipod when setting a gun...

Well this is a first. A little disappointed for sure but not the end of the world. I think I can repair it but not what I expected in the first month. Yes I hunt with it and have it in the rain and snow every weekend for the month I’ve owned it. Still didn’t expect it because I treat all of my...

I take my 3 year old 110+ pound Saint Bernard black lab mix hunting with me when I’m going for anything but whitetail. I’m very fortunate and get to take her everywhere including work. The first time I took her into the woods she ran around sniffing everything and not understanding why we were...

Out for the last weekend of deer season with my crossbow and of course have my cricket II .25 for squirrels if they present themselves. Snowed off and on all day and only saw two squirrels between daylight and dusk. The snow melted and then covered everything up again at dark. Nailed both of...

Sitting here in the woods waiting for movement and enjoying the fresh snow scenery and realized my new cricket ll .25 has had a rough life for last month. Been in the woods with me every weekend since I got it and the weather hasn’t been the most pleasant. Rain and snow are working together to...

Finally recovered a slug after launching it from my new power tuned cricket ll .25 after squirrel hunting this weekend. They are absolute laser beams from my cricket and devastating to anything they hit at 55 ft lbs. Most of the time they blow through both sides of my target animal so I...

Back in the woods on Sunday for some crossbow deer hunting with a side of squirrel. Started out at 11 degrees before daylight but the forecast was sunny and I knew I’d warm up soon. Spotted my first target of the day and had to hold the crosshairs on him for a few moments waiting for the right...

Sitting in the cold woods this morning doing a little squirrel hunting. Not a lot moving so I got bored and decided to recreate a game carrier I bought from eBay. The loop’s were just a tad small for big fox squirrels. I’ve got a ton of paracord, I tie some of it on all of my tree stands to...

The squirrels and deer never showed up but found a target on the way out. I was hunting my grandparents property today and have orders to shoot a few different nuisance critters on sight. Peekaboo! I ran into the cat food thief and sent a hybrid slug at his head. My grandfather traps them...
