    Origin USA Review

    I have decided to slowly make the switch to buying only USA-made hunting gear and clothing. This severely limits camouflage clothing options. I can only think of a few brands: Filson (well, some of their stuff), Forloh, and now Origin USA. I took the leap during a 40% off sale and picked up a...

    If you text people your hunt photos, you may be giving up your “secret spot”

    FYI — I’ve noticed this happening this deer season. If you don’t explicitly have location data turned off on your photos, your nice picture of you and your trophy buck also tracks the location the photo was taken. Some websites scrub this data when you post, such as Instagram. Texting photos to...

    Looking for Turkey Guide for November

    I greatly appreciate the advice and guidance! I had no idea about the recommendation to refrain from Fall hunts, and I will certainly take this into account. I would love to spend the fall 'learning' and then get serious during the Spring season.

    Recipe Tester: Deer

    I own a Traeger smoker, and I was thinking of using this recipe from the jerky cookbook on my first batch this week. Also bought a very nice jerky gun. I was worried about jerky being too tough, so I ground up a lot of neck meat and such to put through the jerky gun.

    Recipe Tester: Deer

    After taking my first deer, I thought it might be fun to post the various recipes I will be trying with it in the coming weeks. Any suggested recipes that I like, I will post a review with my thoughts! I butchered the deer myself, so the cuts are a bit rough. From what I have heard about SoCal...

    Zone D16 General Rifle

    Oops! Didn't realize I posted the cut off one. But the story is a good one: started hiking into a deep valley before first light, fully outfitted for an entire weekend of searching for a glimpse of a legal buck. Within the first 30 minutes of sunrise, we (my dad and I) see a buck sun bathing in...

    Zone D16 General Rifle

    Hi all, it's my first time on SCH and coincidentally my first time trying to take a deer in zone d16. I am 20 years old and have grown up bird hunting in San Diego county but have never taken a deer in my life. If I miraculously am successful, I will post photos of my first buck here! Thanks...
