Spring Is The Ideal Time to Come Out of Hibernation and Put Smiles on Kids Faces.
What is everyone looking forward too as temps begin to rise and daylight starts sticking around a little longer each day? I enjoyed the cold snap experienced during February as it gave me a chance to get out on the ice for the first time in many, many years but now it’s time to start focusing on the transition to Spring.

We owe it to ourselves. Continue Reading…

I Put the YETI 105 to the Test During This Year’s Deer Season.
I’ve found over the years as I travel more for my hunts that I’ve always got a need for a cooler. By definition the fact I’m going hunting means I’m looking to bring some food home. Food in most cases needs to be kept cool and clean. What better way than an air tight, permafrost insulated, rotomolded cooler? My thoughts exactly. With this in mind I started the 2020 deer season with high hopes to test out the YETI Tundra 105 and YETI Ice. Continue Reading…
Don’t Let Social Media Have a Negative Impact on Your Life or Hunts! (image courtesy of wordstream.com)
What are you guy’s thoughts on social media? Of course beings I have a website and several social media accounts, I’m not a hater. At first (years ago now!) I was a little obstinate but after I had to get an account to see the pics of my kids my wife was posting I began to use it more and more. Now I find it fairly useful, moderately entertaining, and with some verification slightly educational. But even as social media continues to influence us more and more, I still have some reservations with it. Continue Reading…
While I’ve been making a concerted effort to post more regularly to Hunting Fit, I’m still doing some free lance work on the side.

Once again Sitka proved why they are one of the top performance hunting clothing manufactures in the country.
As I sit here on the cusp of winter I thought it would be good to get a review out on some items that may just make your late season hunt bearable. On top of their outstanding clothing lines Sitka offers a couple other items that I really wanted to try out and see if they could be difference makers. So I procured a Ballistic Beanie, Incinerator Muff, and Neck Gaiter for my late season whitetail hunts here in the Midwest. Continue Reading…
During one trip to Colorado I was tucked back into some trees waiting for the elk to feed out into the open. As I waited this gentleman and his horse came passing by. He didn’t see me or I would have smiled and waived as he was enjoying his hunt just as I was.
You know what we need more of? Participating in hunting in a way that fits your mold. No one else’s. If it makes you happy, is ethical, and legal…go for it. Like big bucks? Let the little ones walk. Like meat in the freezer? Shoot the first thing that comes by. Prefer archery? Get that stick and string out! Come out once a year for the gun opener? Have your orange ready and get after it. We are all different and as hunters we should embrace that. Continue Reading…
Is the anticipation of the sunrise and what it may bring filling your thoughts and dreams?
With each hunt comes some degree of anticipation. Do you enjoy this feeling or simply wish it was go time, right now? When does it hit you? The night before? Week before? Month? Continue Reading…
Gerber has an extensive line of blades and tools for the outdoorsman, hunter, and fisher. After trialing several models I was very impressed.
For years I’ve carried a Gerber shovel and axe in the tool box on my truck “just in case”. When I was training and hunting with my bird dog years ago I grabbed a set of Gerber game shears that I still use to this day. I’ve always known about Gerber knives but until recently I really hadn’t had much exposure to them. Continue Reading…
