Whoa! This stag regularly visits this feeder, set up specifically for bowhunting. If all goes well, I’ll get to meet him in person this weekend.

At dawn, at 3:42, two pigs arrived at the feeder, then a little later, startled, they hurried off. The cause of the fright was the arrival of a seriously sized, middle-aged boar, who then leisurely rooted around for a good several minutes.

On a cool, misty November dawn, the silhouette of a healthy, middle-aged stag took shape out of the fog like a ghost. It seems he will become a regular visitor to this feeder.

Finally! Life has returned to the feeders! Tonight a really serious sounder visited the "bowhunter" feeder. A few photos show them digging up the hidden corn even out of holes 40-50cm deep and about 25cm in diameter. This is one of their favorite pastimes, they get completely absorbed in the work, and usually spend several…

It seems the crops on the farmland have already been harvested, the grain scattered during the harvest is also slowly running out, and the game is being forced back into the woods. These two stags, though after sunset, still arrived well within "shooting light" – which borders on a miracle in this hunting ground –…

This beautiful, very well-fed, healthy badger is a regular visitor to this feeder. I’ve already run into it several times during my night stand hunts. Several hunting-related sources ( there’s plenty to be found, but here’s just one that also references others ); https://forums.bowsite.com/tf/bgforums/thread.cfm?threadid=371021&forum=2 discuss whether it’s better to hunt at night with green or…

Today, getting ready for the coming hunting weekend, as I go through and, based on experience, reorganize the contents of the crates, boxes, bags and backpacks I use to store my gear, this photo was taken. In 2003, when I bought my very first bow (a Mathews Ultra2), I decided that I would pursue my…

A wildcat at the feeder. It follows naturally that at a game-management facility that helps feed the game — as is the case with this feeder too — usually some kind of grain or agricultural crop gets scattered out. Small forest mammals and rodents love these crops very much, and because of this, when things…

It is a truly joyful moment when the deployed cameras once again capture game appearing at the feeders. As is well known, the animals vanish completely from these spots for weeks or months when the wild fruits ripen and sweeten, and from the time any agricultural crop (corn, sunflower, sugar beet . . .) shoots…
