Founder · Apr 13, 2021

Let's see some of your 2021 Spring Time Hunting Photos. Turkey, bear, hogs, coyotes, etc. Feel free to post up to 5 photos for the contest, but post them in separate posts, as only the first photo in each post shows up as a thumbnail above.
Share a little detail about the pics too!

We'll run the photo contest for a month or so.

The contest prizes will be a Phone Skope Kit for 1st place and Pyro Putty and an Arch Lighter for 2nd place. Thanks to the folks at Phone Skope for the gear! If you don't already own the a Phone Skope, then get over to their site and get one......that is if you don't win one here! It's a valuable piece of gear to have with you for helping to preserve your hunting and scouting adventures.

Get Yourself a Phone Skope

A lot more to hunt in California than most realized. Son came home from college one night at 9:30pm. Went turkey hunting the next morning and each got one. He left to go back to college at 3 pm. Not bad for under 24 hours.

Posting on behalf of ColoradoBob. I’ll let him fill in details of the hunt. Congrats young man!

The young hunter's name is Elliot. He's 13 years old. He won this turkey hunt at the our local NWTF banquet. It's his 1st gobbler----8 1/2" beard, 3/4" spurs & 19 lbs. I mentored the hunt & called this gobbler off the roost & Elliot shot him @ 6:25 AM with a 20 gauge. His smile says it all. Bob

Youth turkey hunt.

My 10 year old daughter had quite a morning last weekend. A turkey double followed by her first coyote. All 3 came in on a string to calling. I am so proud of her for the practice she puts in beforehand and the shooting discipline she shows in the field - she’s not shooting until she KNOWS her shot will be true! ?
