I hunt near Natchez, and I was ?Told that there is some kind of worms eating the food plots, destroying them completly. Anyone seeing or even heard of this?
Lokking for someone that hand loads near New Orleans. I bought a t/c prohunter in 35 whelen, and Im looking for ammo. Barne X, or something that will pack a punch.
Anybody hunt deer with a 44 mag? I found a deal on a ruger 44 carbine. May use it as a hog/brush gun. Where I hunt it is unusual to have a shoot more than 100 yards. Looking for any feed back on this round.
Thanks

I have been putting out deer corn and rice bran in a trough feeder on my little plot. I have found three dead coons since then, the most recent one right where I tossed a couple pounds of corn on the ground for the turkeys in the area.
Is the corn killing them? I have heard people say that deer get blue tongue from corn that has a mold in it?
What's going on? I hate inadvertly causing.... Read More
I recently purchased a 300 mag because i got a good deal on it. My question is about hunting deer at distances of 100 yds or less. I have read that the bullet is traveling to fast at those distances and might not have a clean kill due to that. Does anybody have any experience with that caliber at those distances? If so, any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanx
OK folks, I need your ideas, or your club rules. It seems every year, I have guys that do plenty and some that do nothing. How do you handle work days. I know that not everyone has the same days off or works the same shifts. So give me you thoughts.
I am a full time student and currently live in Baton Rouge. I have been looking at the sherburne wma area as a place to make a few hunts this year. I was wondering if anyone could help me out with any good spots i could access by foot or boat if needed. Also i would like to know if they allow rifles there or is it bow only. THANKS

i am looking for a first time hunting rifle. i want to get a 30-06 and was wondering yalls opinions on what kind for a good price? thanks for some info.
Hoping to make sure all of you know you can save some big bucks today. No tax in LA on pretty much anything relating to hunting. To make it even better, I'm throwing in a Mathews T5 Quiver at 1/2 price with the purchase of a Z7 and accessories (if you mention you saw the Sportsman ad). If you're going to buy one anyway, today's the day to save some money! You can pay by phone and pick up.... Read More

Well after a short debate on yesterday, I went out to exeercise my 2nd amendment rights. Bought the Thompson Encore Prohunter in 35 Whelen. I am happy and excited so far. I cant wait to get out and fire some rounds through it. Thanks for all the great input from my fellow LSM hunters. Good luck and happy hunting. Be safe and always courteous.
Got these deer on the cam one afternoon after a rain. They are dandies for sure, I cant wait for the velvet to come off(got 1 photo the same night of an 8pt with no velvet) and Bow season to start!! They are nice deer esp. for South Arkansas, not too far north of the line.
Went check my camera this weekend and had about 30 pics of this dude on there. Apparently a couple of these got out of a high fence awhile back. The thing is I had all those pics of him and no deer which is odd. Can anyone tell me how aggressive these things are? Would he run off the deer in the area?
Has anyone tried the Moultrie hanging deer feeder it is the 5 gallon one the collapses? I was considering getting one and just wanted to know if anyone else has one and if they like it.
I'm looking for sources to interview for two Louisiana Sportsman deer-hunting articles on these WMAs:
• Bayou Macon
• Sicily Island
The hunters need to be knowledgeable about the individual WMA covered in the story, and ideally have photos of them with some deer killed from that area.
This is your chance to get into the pages of Louisiana Sportsman. One story is scheduled for the.... Read More
There is a really cool shoot tommorrow in the Picayune, MS. area. It's a computerized 3D popup shoot benefiting the MS chapter of the Wheeling Sportsman, an organization that helps out wheelchair bound sportsmen. Take N. Picayune Exit, follow Hwy 43 W until you see the Henley Field Community Center. Can't miss it. Shoot from 9:00 - 4:00 with a shootoff around 4:30. Adult prize is a Mathews.... Read More
I'm putting in two 1/2 acre food plots on a small hunting property (abut 500 yards from each other, each with a deer stand nearby). I also have 3 gravity feeders out (for corn and/or rice bran). Any suggestions about the placement of the gravity feeders in relation to the food plots? Should the gravity feeders be right next to the food plot, nearby, or far away?
Hey guys i am fairly new to deer hunting and i just found out that my grandmother has some property down in covington that she says i can hunt on and do whatever i want with it because noone uses it at all or even knows its hers haha. I have duck hunted all my life but i recently went to Bowie outfitters and bought a new bow. Well since i have all this property to myself and iron man will be.... Read More
Hunting seasons should be about herd management, not weapons management. But it seems that too often wildlife management comes in second place to special interest. It all started many years ago when bow hunters (I'm one) lobbied for a special season all to themselves. The retailers loved it - sold a lot of archery equipment. Muzzleloaders.... Read More
