Member's Hunt: Patience Pays

Our latest Member's Hunt comes from Erin Prajzner from Hampstead, Md.

Outside the Box

Many business catchphrases are worn out, overused and a little dorky. But when it comes to hunting Texas deer, the thought of one of them can lead to good things.

Why the Whitetail Population Has Fallen

Deer populations are local affairs, but there have been some surprising regional trends hunters should be aware of.

Deer Defense Shield: Same Senses, Different Reactions

Researchers can dissect and explain the whitetail’s great eyes, ears and nose, but no amount of data can explain how and why each deer responds so differently to what it sees, hears and smells.

A Rifle Hunter's First Bowhunting Buck

A rifle hunter catches the bowhunting bug, becomes a better hunter and bags a fiancé along the way. Still, her hardest-earned “trophy” will be a mature whitetail buck.

DU-Supported Bill Would Raise Duck Stamp Price

A Ducks Unlimited-supported Senate bill introduced last month could raise the price of a federal duck stamp for the first time since 1991.

Deer in the Long Grass

Pockets of plum hold prairie mule deer and whitetails—a few little ones. For more bucks and big antlers, look in the grass.

West Texas Rules

The author comes slowly to an epiphany hunters can have only in the Lone Star State.

Hunting in My Socks

Reminiscent of boyhood adventures, the author gives new meaning to back to basics as he stalks the hills and hones his skills—in his stocking feet.
