Hunting For TV

December 14, 2010

Believe it or not, most of the hunting I do is business related so sometimes I have to make decisions based on business and expenses. For instance, when I hunted on my own I routinely went home with unfilled tags. I was perfectly happy to hunt for the biggest buck and go home empty handed [...]

Hunting At The Speed Of NASCAR

December 6, 2010

It’s hard to imagine how crazy November can be when you’re trying to get as many hunts filmed as possible in the narrow window of the rut. This year was one of the craziest ever and oftentimes we only had three or four days to film an entire episode for Extreme Pursuits.
One of the craziest [...]

Renewing Hunting Friendships

December 2, 2010

I’m still hunting, but as I look back over the bulk of the season one thing that I always enjoy is getting together with good friends, chasing deer and making memories. Back in November I teamed up with North American Hunting Club executive director Bill Miller and freelance video photographer Ernie Lanthier for a whitetail [...]

Public Land Pursuits

October 27, 2010

I’m in the midst of a filming project in my Wyoming backyard. To bring my series Extreme Pursuits down to earth we’re filming on public land for pronghorn and deer. Yesterday I wrapped my tag around a plump public land pronghorn early on the hunt.
After scouting for a day and a half and putting the [...]

Unexpected Hunting Season Interruption

October 6, 2010

I’m writing this blog from seat 13C on a flight from Minneapolis back to Wyoming after a whirlwind visit to the land of 10,000 lakes, specifically Minneapolis. What could possibly make me leave the hinterlands for a trip to the big city smack dab in the middle of hunting season? You guessed it: work. The [...]

My Turn

August 27, 2010

With Cole’s pronghorn down and two birds killed with one stone (his first big game archery kill and a TV show) I had no stress to shoot another pronghorn. We’d give it another day, maybe two and then wrap the trip as successful. My first day with my Mathews bow in hand turned out to [...]

Hunting on TV: Good or Bad?

June 23, 2010

The new show I’ve been working on for the past several months is about to launch on the Pursuit channel this weekend. If you have nothing going on Sunday evening, tune in 8 p.m. (Eastern). It’s also got me thinking again about hunting on television and what was once entertainment, has somehow turned into a [...]

I Want You To Watch TV

April 7, 2010

I don’t think I shared this with you yet, but I’m going to be working on another show that will be appearing this fall on the Pursuit Channel. Don’t stop watching North American Hunter TV on Versus. I’ll still be helping out the gang there, but I’ll also be expending energy toward this new show [...]

It's a Wrap

February 19, 2010

We wrapped the latest edition of “You Call The Shots” in record time. It went more smoothly than creamy-style peanut butter thanks to the great production crew at North American Hunter. I actually had a bad feeling when my trip kicked off with a series of unlucky omens. For starters, the flight crew failed to [...]

You Call the Shots

February 18, 2010

Yes, it’s time again for my annual trek to the Minneapolis area to meet up with the gang from North American Hunter. We’re filming the entire roundup of the “You Call The Shots” segments for all of 2010 this week. We’ll be filming on the premises of ATK or many of you might be more [...]

Happy Anniversary

February 3, 2010

Happy anniversary! What’s the hoopla about? It’s the one-year anniversary of the launch of this blog thanks to the good folks at North American Hunter.
Who would have believed I’d still have a platform to blog about everything from firearm rights to raising baby skunks, or nationwide whitetail tactics to my son’s first buck.
When I look [...]

Close Encounter

November 25, 2009

The rut is still on and I proved it the last few days by rattling in a bunch of bucks. The result is a great show for NAH TV for the 2010 season. I teamed up with NAH TV producer Melissa Bachman and she worked hard to capture it all.
If you want to have calling [...]

Can You Take One More Step Please?

September 25, 2009

I love elk hunting, but I’ve coined a new phrase for the event: frustratingly fun. Don’t try to steal it. It’s mine. I spent the last few days in Colorado trying to get an elk to stand in an opening long enough to cut loose an arrow. To get the job done I teamed up [...]

Hunting Pronghorn on TV

September 11, 2009

I’m writing this blog from somewhere north of Newell, S.D. It’s my second pronghorn hunt of the year, but the first filmed hunt and I’m partnered up with my good friend Lonnie Garland. Lonnie is a full-time video producer for the North American Hunting Club, and he and I have shared many adventures in the [...]

Another Day at the Office(Yeah, But What An Office!)

March 6, 2009

When I stepped off the airplane at the Atlanta International Airport at midnight earlier this week, the wind chill took my breath away. When I left home it was 66 in Wyoming, but when I landed Atlanta was in the 20s. So much for an escape from winter.
A few hours later the warmth of friends, [...]
