Late Season Turkey Tips

 

Numbers of turkey hunting seasons run through May, some even into June. Here are some proven tips to bag that bird at the 11th hour.

Most turkey seasons kick-off sometime in March and openers extend all the way into early May the further north you go. After a grueling fall and winter routine of chasing seasons and various game…not to mention “mandatory” seasonal fishing opportunities, many hunters look forward to the relative simplicity of spring turkey seasons and the opportunity to play with the unique birds – if only for a few weeks a year.

It’s common to rush into things and tag out as quickly as possible. My turkey hunting mentor – rest his soul – was adamant about tagging right out of the gate because birds would get “weird” later in the season. And, while he taught me a lot and I owe him a tremendous debt of gratitude, it didn’t take me long to realize his assessment on late season Indiana and Michigan gobblers was in fact, false. Mostly anyway. Read more

Arkansas Battles Feral Hog Invasion: A Timeline of Eradication Efforts

Feral hogs have been a growing menace in Arkansas for decades, wreaking havoc on crops, livestock and the environment. A concerted effort, over a decade in the making, is showing signs of progress.

Feral hogs, descendants of animals brought by early explorers and later supplemented by Eurasian wild boars for sport hunting, have been present in North America since the 1500s. By 1999, some people recognized the growing problem, but scattered populations, complex issues and a lack of coordinated effort stalled significant action.

These invasive pests, estimated at over 6 million nationwide, cause $30 million to $41 million in damages annually in Arkansas alone. They are not just agricultural nuisances, but vectors for human and animal disease and destroyers of native habitats. Read more

Safety Recall Notice Regarding Colt CBX Bolt-Action Rifles

Colt’s Manufacturing Company LLC (“Colt”) has recently learned of a potential safety issue with its CBX bolt-action rifles. Both the CBX Precision and CBX Tac Hunter models are affected. Colt is voluntarily initiating a recall of these rifles because of the potential for an unintentional discharge of the rifle, without pulling the trigger, under certain conditions when the manual safety is disengaged.

To prevent the possibility of death or serious personal injury, Colt asks anyone who owns a CBX rifle to immediately stop using it and return it to Colt.

Colt has learned that, for some CBX rifles, if the trigger is pulled while the manual safety is engaged (in the “safe” position), the trigger may not fully reset. This could result in an unintentional discharge of the rifle when the manual safety is moved to the “fire” position, without a further pull of the trigger.

Consumers who own a Colt CBX rifle, should visit www.coltcbx.com, for information about returning their rifles to Colt for a refund or replacement option. Read more

Game Warden K9 Koda and Game Warden Jake Voter Locate Missing 2-Year-Old

Maine Warden Service K9 Koda and Game Warden Jake Voter located a missing two-year-old girl in Jay early Tuesday afternoon.

The child and her mother were together outside their home on Tripp Lane in Jay this morning. At one point while doing chores outside, the mother noticed that the toddler was missing.

After a quick search of the immediate area by family members failed to locate the child, the mother called 911 at 11:00 this morning. Due to the child’s age, multiple agencies immediately responded, including Franklin Sheriff’s Office, Jay Police Department, Jay Fire Department, Northstar EMS and 14 Maine Game Wardens including 2 Warden K9’s.

A search of the buildings and woods quickly commenced. At approximately 1:15 p.m., Game Warden Voter and K9 Koda located the child in thick brush about 300 yards northwest of the back of the house. The child was healthy and alert and had only minor scrapes received from walking through the woods. The child was quickly examined and released by emergency medical personnel and reunited with her family. ?

“Warden Voter and K9 Koda did an excellent job locating this young toddler in the thick woods where she was hidden by the brush,” said Maine Game Warden Sergeant Scott Thrasher, “Given the child’s age, it was important to get multiple searchers here quickly and get them searching. It was great teamwork by multiple agencies that made for a very happy ending for the toddler and her family.”

GOA, Firearms Industry Urge Congress to Repeal NFA Taxes Through Budget Reconciliation

“Congress has the tools to repeal these outdated and unconstitutional taxes.”

Washington, D.C. — Gun Owners of America (GOA) today led a coalition of top firearms manufacturers and industry leaders in urging Congress to repeal the unconstitutional gun taxes imposed under the National Firearms Act of 1934.
