Let?s Hear It For Little Girls Who Hunt!

Mike Hanback has a great post on his blog about 3 South Dakota bucks. Check out the picture of the hunter who took the first buck. You?ve got to love that. Stop by and congratulate this young huntress on her success.

A Significant Moment in Fatherhood

Bill, the writer of the Muskoka Outdoors Blog has a terrific post about a couple of moments that may only have significance to him. It?s a good read.

Why I Hunt: NorCal Cazadora

Holly is the writer I want to be when I grow up. She has written some very beautiful and inspiring pieces about her hunting experiences, but her post on why she hunts may be one of her very best. It definitely makes the must read list.

Why MTR Continues in West Virigina

Bluemountainmama at Ruminations of a Country Girl points out one reason why MTR continues in West Virginia, many of the politicians are in league with the coal company executives. It?s a sad state of affairs.

Because I Know How You Love the Deer Pictures

Liberty Pines Ranch Breaks was recently added to the OBS Blogroll. Wayne, who writes the blog, recently posted some great deer cam pictures. Jeff at Lowcountry Hunting also posted some great photos of big bucks which were taken by a friend of his. I know deer season is still a way off, but there?s no harm in looking, right?

Fishing Across the Pond

The Suburban Bushwhacker did a great piece on fishing in a suburban environment. There are some great pictures accompanying the story as well. It makes me want to hop a flight and go explore England.

Hunters Helping Kids: The Good Work Continues

Othmar has a great story about a youth turkey hunt hosted by Hunters Helping Kids in New York. This organization does a lot of good work and introduces kids to hunting. It certainly deserves our support.

Be Careful Out There!

Phillip?s post ?To The Anti Hunter? has been getting most of the press this week, but I wanted to point out another one of his posts instead. He wrote a post about hunting accidents that almost perfectly echoes a lot of the stuff I?ve been saying in my last few Safety Friday posts. People do need to be more careful.

A Funny Hunting Post

Marian, who has been doing a lot lately to spotlight some newer bloggers, has led me to the Base Camp Legends Blog. As Marian points out, the post ?Guns, Ammo and ? What?s This? is a very funny post. If you haven?t been by yet, stop by and give it a read.

When Bad Customer Service Happens to Good People

Arthur at Simply Outdoors tells us the story of the bad customer service he got from Taurus. Most of you probably know what a customer service zealot I am, and there is no excuse for this sort of treatment. One of the pluses of having a blog, however, is that you can let people know when things go bad. If enough people do that, and companies can get feedback in real time, those with bad customer service will either change their policies or they?ll find they have no customers to serve.

41 Years as an Outdoor Writer

In my opinion Dave Richey is one of the premiere outdoor writers alive today, and certainly one of the premiere outdoor writers in my home state. His post ?41 Years of Helping New Writers? shows you a bit of why he has been so successful. He has been a great resource for outdoor readers and outdoor writers for many years. Congratulations on 41 years Dave, and thanks for all you?ve done.
