To say it’s been a long fall is an understatement! I can’t say the hunting was bad; it was just a little harder than it has been over a last few years. The deer numbers seem to be down-a few things play into that- EHD, last year’s long winter and late spring. Throw in the […]
My 2013 archery season started with high expectations to say the least!! I now had access to over 10,000 acres of some of the best deer hunting in Iowa. So I set my sights high and decided I was not going to shoot anything under 170. Now I was given a hard time by my […]
I don’t know about you but the rut here is Iowa has been slow, late… weird, whatever you would like to call it. I have seen rut activities since November 1st, but not to the level I had in years past. I know this thing we call “RUT” is somewhat unexplained and we may never […]
Ok this past weekend while hunting, I pulled a few cards that I hadn’t checked in three weeks. Got a few new bucks to add to the hitlist as well as better pictures of a buck I call Lumpy! Click to see a lager view of each picture. Droopy is top of the hitlist, just […]

Over the years I have done quite a bit of videoing for Shows and on the freelance basis. One of the biggest things everyone wants is a Hit List of bucks. I would spend countless hours sitting in a beanfield or foodplot in July sweating like crazy trying to video a good buck to add […]
First off this is more of an inventory of the bucks I have on trail-cam then it is a hitlist. The reason I bring this up is because some of the buck listed below could get issued a pass this year as some are on the verge of greatness, if given another year. I still […]
A few weeks back the Victory Outdoors Crew got together for a team weekend. Okay so the idea was for us to get together and plan for this fall. Who hunting when, where, and with who. So that we are all ready to bring all of you the best stories, photos and videos this coming […]
Here are a SIX more bucks that I have added to my hitlist. I know with the first few bucks that started my hitlist, I have had more history with those deer. These deer are however, unfamiliar to me for the most part. I have one farm that is a natural funnel between two huge […]
“YOUR ADVENTURES” By Randy DuMez, Mossy Oak ProStaff Scrape hunting is one of those hunting discussions that everyone has an opinion on. Everyone seems to have a different level of success hunting them. I have seen some nice bucks come into them at the right time of the season and I have sat many times and seen nothing […]
This is the buck that is still at the top of my hit list.I had several pics of him last year an had several sighting through out the archery season. He has turned into a ghost this year. I have been impatiently waiting for him to show up again this year on the trail cams […]
Righty– First and foremost on my list, mainly because he has been an absolute ghost throughout our years of hunting chess. This is the first and only picture I have of him. Splits– This buck is on my hit list for an obvious reason. I had his pictures last year and figured he needed a […]
