Hunting Knife Basics As an experienced hunter, it is always easy for me to spot the newest member of the hunting group who usually has very little experience in the woods.

Missouri 10 Point Buck I am a retired Soldier of 25 years in service. After spending many hunting seasons deployed to places like Somalia, Saudi Arabia and Iraq, one of my goals upon retirement was to try and make a hunting trip out of state somewhere every year or so.

My wife approved the purchase order and issued the kitchen pass so off I go.
