| Playing the wind yields East Baton Rouge Parish giant |
The vast majority of deer hunters in Louisiana look for their quarry from the vantage point of elevated stands. Many also utilize trail cameras to give them an idea of what they’re hunting.
Slaughter resident James Phelps, 27, relies on neither: He does most of his hunting from the ground and doesn’t use trail cameras. That strategy paid off Dec. when Phelps popped a big-bodied, massive-racked 18 point buck that should score in the 160-inch range. |
| Father, son rescued after boat capsizes during duck hunting accident |
A father and son were rescued from Duck Lake in St. Martin Parish yesterday morning (Dec. 27) after the pair’s boat capsized during a duck-hunting trip, the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries reported.
Russ Tircuit, 58, and his 25-year-old son Michael Tircuit, both of Addis, were rescued from the water about 8:35 a.m. by St. Mary Sheriff’s Office deputies and transported to the Franklin Foundation Hospital for hypothermia treatment, the LDWF said. |
