Gary Vs Coyote's

Wed, 20 Dec 2023 07:00:00 -0500

Ever ventured into the wilderness, hunting gear in tow, only to be met with the echoing stillness of an animal-free zone? That's just the start of Gary's latest adventure we're unpacking for you. From tree climbers to ladder stands and saddles, we scrutinize the tools of the trade, balancing comfort against function and packability. But it's not all about the gear; we delve into the unique experiences that private land offers, where permanence affords luxuries that the nomadic hunter can only dream of.

When it comes to hunting in Ontario, the only certainty is surprise. We share tales of sudden wildlife encounters that turn well-laid plans on their head. We reminisce on a very popular style of truck-based hunts back home, the patience they demand, and the safety considerations they necessitate. We touch on the different methods of field dressing animals and wonder if the ways taught to us are the most effective.

We meander off into the camaraderie-laden world of duck hunting, where shotguns are as varied as the stories they help create. You'll get a taste of what it feels like to cook your catch in a blind, debate the merits of fancy duck blinds, and even ponder whether it's time to swap bear for bird next season. Our passion for the sport is only matched by our enthusiasm for the accoutrements that accompany it; join us as we explore every aspect, from the practical to the profound, the tactical to the traditional.
