lolson+FollowLure Coyotes Without Calls: Tips & Tricks✌️Want to attract coyotes without using calls? Try these methods! 1️⃣ Visual decoys - especially moving rabbit decoys. Coyotes are visual hunters and that subtle motion triggers their instincts instantly. 2️⃣ Scent lures like rabbit urine or coyote scent create curiosity from downwind. They'll investigate even when they can't see anything. 3️⃣ Strategic baiting (where legal!) with meat scraps or fruits draws them to your area. Always check local regulations first! 4️⃣ Silent observation during dawn/dusk near known travel routes can be incredibly effective. Just stay still and let their curiosity bring them to you. Sometimes the old-school approach beats all the fancy gear. Patience and positioning trump everything! #hunting #CoyoteHunting #WildlifeTips #SilentHunting302Share
Manuel Bright+FollowIs hunting by bike allowed where you are? 🚵♂️I’ve been mountain biking for years, and recently started combining it with hunting. It’s honestly a great way to move quietly and cover ground fast. The only challenge? Hauling out the game after a successful hunt—definitely a workout 😅 Anyone else hunt this way? Would love to get tips for hauling out game without straining my back! #hunting #BikeHunting #MountainBikeLife #HuntingHacks2315Share
lolson+FollowOff-season rabbit hunting keeps me sharp 🐰Been hitting the rabbit woods during deer off-season and loving it! These little speedsters are way trickier than people think. A few things have helped me: - Focus on early morning and late evening hunts during summer heat - avoid midday when it's too hot - Target thick cover like brush piles, overgrown fence rows, and shaded field edges where they escape the heat - Use the zig-zag walking pattern to kick them up from cover - Keep your shotgun ready at port arms - once they bolt, you've got maybe 2 seconds to shoot! The fast shooting really helps with my reaction time for other game. Anyone else use rabbit hunting for off-season practice? #hunting #RabbitHunting #OffSeasonHunting #SmallGameHunting1924Share
Manuel Bright+FollowDon’t let dull blades ruin your shot! 🏹Made this mistake once - didn't clean my broadheads after a hunt and they were ruined by the next season! Now I always: - Clean off blood/tissue immediately - Blow out dirt and hair - Sharpen fixed blades with proper tools - Replace mechanical blades when needed - Store in protective cases Clean broadheads = reliable deployment and razor sharpness when it counts! What's your maintenance routine? #hunting #bowhunting #archery #broadheads #huntingtips #huntinggear92Share
lolson+FollowWore winter hunting boots in June - big mistake! 🥵Tried wearing my insulated winter boots on a summer scouting trip—huge mistake. My feet were cooked, soaked, and sore after just a few miles. That’s when I realized: summer hunting boots aren’t optional. Lightweight, breathable, and waterproof makes all the difference when you’re on your feet in the heat. What boots do you guys swear by for summer scouting or early-season hunts? #hunting #huntingboots #summerhunting #scouting #huntingfails21Share

Manuel Bright+FollowStop scaring turkeys - try this instead 🦃Been dialing in my turkey calling game over the past few seasons, and here’s what’s made the biggest difference when it comes to bringing toms in close — and getting a shot: 1️⃣ Set up before you call. Always have your back against a good tree before you even yelp once. If a gobbler sounds off nearby, you won’t have time to scramble — he could be in sight within seconds. 2️⃣ Read the hens — then match them. Pay attention to what the real hens are doing. If they’re fired up and loud, I go aggressive with cutting and excited yelps. If they’re soft and chatty, I pull way back and keep things subtle. 3️⃣ Adapt to conditions. Windy morning? I break out the box call to cut through the breeze. If one’s sneaking in close, I switch to a mouth call so I can stay hands-free and ready to shoot. 4️⃣ Make your calls move. Use your hand or body position to “throw” sound — make it feel like the hen is walking around. I even angle my slate or box call off to one side or behind me to keep toms guessing. 5️⃣ Know when to shut up. If a gobbler’s getting close and fired up, I stop calling altogether. Nothing pulls them in like silence — it forces them to come find you. If he drifts off, I give a couple soft clucks to steer him back. These small changes led to my cleanest gobbler takedown yet. What’s your go-to move when a tom hangs up at 80 yards? #hunting #turkeyhunting #turkeycalling #huntingtips7310Share
bushjill+FollowWe talk hunting, but trapping made me betterLast winter was only my third trapping season, but I learned more in that cold week than I have in some entire deer seasons. Setting cable restraints, reading subtle signs, hiking two miles daily just to find a knocked-down set or one stubborn raccoon—it forced me to slow down and really understand how animals move. Trapping sharpened my patience and totally changed how I read the woods. It’s way more technical than I expected, but also incredibly rewarding. I still love hunting, but trapping taught me a different kind of discipline. Curious how others compare the two—what’s been more valuable for you? #hunting #trapping #outdoors 332Share
