Mike Krings shot this deer sat night, sun morning we followed a faint blood trail for almost a mile before bumping him from his bed. We waited an hour and went after him again. We found him bedded

Best bow buck to date: grossed 144 7/8 shot on Sept. 30 from 12 yds ran only 60 yds.

My little brother and I saw this buck on Fri. evening with both antlers. Sat. evening we saw him wearing just this antler. We went to look for the opposite side where we had seen him bedded. We did

8" beard, one inch spurs.

Spotted him from about 2 miles bedded down and made a sneak.

Upper 160's. 12" front forks.

I took this picture last year while scouting. This is about a mile from where my little brother shot him. I am thinking it is the same deer. He is tall, not wide, has brow tines and his G2's are

This is her 2nd trophy antelope in as many years. She mounted the one she got last year and did a european mount on this nice buck.

This goat ran to water after Mandy shot it. This is how it laid.

Nice bird shot with bow.

Mandy shot this tom when it flew down and started strutting right in front of us.

Cody shot this turkey right before it crossed the river.

This tom was strutting his stuff around his lady friends.

After many hours of painful casting finally snagged one.

This fish took out darn nears all of her line before we tightened the drag all the way and ran the shore towards the fish.

Roy pulled this fish in with the assistance of Mandy.

After casting Thursday and Friday he finally hooked this fish sat afternoon.

I snagged this sturgeon and took a quick photo.

For a view of the thickness.

A different look at the side and mass.

Here's a side view.

Here's a closer look.

160 class 9 point with incredible mass including 3 circumferences per side with at least 6" measurements. Largest being 6 7/8. I thought he was high 140's to mid 150's. The mass blew me away

My goat.

This photo and the next are of our second weekend goats. Snow made for tough hunting! Tagged shortly after the photos.

It's a wide one! Good goat Eric!

Took this elk in the Fort Peck area. Called him in and made a complete pass through at 75 yards.

Many moons ago

fun trip with many walleyes

this was many years ago. Went in October and it got to single digits at night and upper 70's during midday. Made for tough camping and hunting. Had to settle for this little guy. Heck of a fun trip

nice 140

got right up to him

This is the shed from the previous year of my bow buck last year. I found it this spring. It was old and just the tines were sticking out of the grass and the rodents had chewed on it a litle.

This buck looked rather large on the hoof

Bow season can't come soon enough!

took some children out shed hunting. haha

Muley that still had to put on a lot of tine length at time of picture

This buffalo skull was buried in the bank of the little missouri river

double drop tines

Bull in unit M8

Bro had on his war paint that he couldn't get off from the morning goose hunt.

make deer look small

Mandy shot a lot of carp including this joker

Here the war paint is still in tact

With bow season not open yet and a few geese around western nodak, decided to try my luck goose hunting. No decoys, no calls, no experience, no problem. haha.

I like the definition in the face.

Camped in some random spot Friday night in the dark and was gonna hike out of camp to look for elk. I woke up to cows mooing and bulls bugling. This pic is from the tent thru the spotting scope.

Good buck a ways from camp

This buck came charging in and tried running me off.

A beautiful dark heavy elk antler

Had to strap it on the pack for the 3 mile hike back to camp

Make my body ache.

Old and weathered elk shed

interesting sight.

I hung a stand for my friend on a waterhole where I had been seeing some nice whitetails.  This was the result.

I have many many photos of this buck.

218 yards, waited for him to stand and dropped him with one well placed shot. It was the biggest buck we had seen in a couple days so decided to take him. Numbers and size of bucks is down in the

I was just looking through old photos. This is my brother's youth mule deer. 170" mule deer in full velvet. He was and still is one very happy kid!

this is my brother sitting where we spotted my Dad's buck. He ended up shooting him 1.13 miles from this spot (according to the GPS)

We finaly caught up to him after basically a sprint through some of the most rugged badlands ND has to offer. We were fortunate to pop up over the correct hill and spot the group of deer about

My dad with his buck on his back

I bedded this buck down Saturday and Sunday and we were able to bring him down Sunday morning. He was on land we couldn't hunt Saturday. He hardly grew from last year but still a very respectable

I never found the buck I was looking for with rifle. So yesterday bedded this buck down and decided to go grab the muzzleloader. Snuck to within 30 yards of him in a clover patch and all I could see

My hunting partner took this pic after we recovered my deer. I shot him on the last day. He ran a half mile and not one drop of blood in the snow. It was nearly a perfect shot.

Caught a bonus perch and threw back a few dinks.

My buddy caught this pretty good perch and made him look really good LOL

22 incher Thanks to my guiding service

caught a pretty good crappie

I caught this trophy fish on Tuesday morning. I never got him officially weighed but I got him to the taxidermist right away. He should look good on my wall! I hope the wall will hold!

I never did add a good photo of my buck with the smoke pole. This buck and I had numerous encounters. I passed him quite a few times with the bow and actually passed him with my muzzy too. But on

My bro pulled this walleye out of 48 ft of water at about 2 in the afternoon on Saturday. We were perch fishing and caught quite a few of them but this walleye was a nice suprise.

Here is a picture of the type of perch we were catching on Saturday. They were very light biters.

2 of the nicer walleyes from this past weekend

These deer were hanging out on this very over grazed pasture all winter. Picking up bones last night was very easy. Found 8 sheds from over 100 yards away. This one was on top of a hill and stuck

my little brothers first mule deer shed. We saw the buck wearing this antler within minutes of finding the shed. We saw the one antlered buck and he ran over a hill. My brother followed his tracks

3 sheds within 10 feet

There was 4 nice sheds in plain view when I pulled into this yard. Picked up 16 sheds within a half hour last night.

how many sheds? Its tough to find them buggers in corn stubble.

I had a ground blind set up for my girlfriend trying to arrow this guy the last week of the bow season. I underjudged him quite a bit. I didn't ever see the deer during the season until the second

or just another reason a lot of people hate porcupines

in the email it said caught north of bismarck 2 weeks ago and weighed over 1,000 lbs and 11'1" long. I don't it believe cause we would have heard about it before this and it is just too big.

We heard turkeys gobbling the moment we opened the vehicle door on Sat. morning. I got this big tom. Mandy actually rolled a nice big tom but it got up and ran off. We never did find him. Saturday

Luckily I had a leatherman with.

My buddy who I am going elk hunting with in Montana found these yesterday.

She shot this big gobbler on Saturday. We spotted him in a creek bed midday. A little calling and the decoys set up, it wasn't long and he was in the back of the pick up.

We set up this morning and had 4 mature toms in the decoys at 7 yards. My brother was using a guilletine broadhead and missed. He grabbed another arrow and hit the bird at about 35 yards but he ran

My little brother caught this 22" largemouth last week. Little dink is making me pay for the mount. Although he is doing 2 european mounts for me in exchange.

Pretty sure this is the same porky that got the pup last week. We were looking for turkeys but this guy will do.

My folks and siblings came up to visit me last summer and we went out and shot some gophers.

I hooked this sucker right at the end of the tail on Saturday morning. I thought I had a 100 lber on, he took out a lot of line.

We went out after work lastnight for a couple hours in a down pour. He snagged this fish right near shore and got him to the bank and snapped a quick photo and let him swim to see another

Since people liked the other guys photo I thought I would share one from last Tuesday. I had to brighten the picture quite a bit because it was getting dark and real cloudy and raining/snowing

I went out looking one last time for a set of deer sheds and came across this guy. I couldn't resist putting it around my neck.

.

We had some luck bowfishing

this is what we saw when we walked up on the spot.

ThirtyThree's first bow buck and my antelope bow buck from last year. we just picked them up.

went for a ride this weekend and picked up this bad boy

A friend shot her first carp on Saturday. This fish looked pure white underneath the water. She shot it under about 2 feet of water on the move! It was a DOOZY!

I think next year will be the year to draw an antelope tag. took this pic last night with the new Nikon D5000

I was out hiking near Bismarck and came across this guy. Is this a big dog?

My buddy arrowed this buck at 6 yards. His best buck ever. Congrats son. 1 buck off the hitlist. Now he can video for me!

I saw this piebald mule deer fawn this weekend. First piebald I have ever seen in person. I don't think I have ever seen a picture of a piebald mule deer either.

Shoot a real bow! LOL

This buck got the best of me. Watching him all summer and looking at trail cam photos, I decided I would not shoot this deer. I was mainly hunting a huge mule deer that I chased all year last year.

Snapped a photo of this nice mule deer

Saw this bull the first morning I was out. He was hot and chasing cows like a mad man.

Super tall backs on this guy

We floated a river in Montana to get to an elk spot. I took a quick shot of these geese. There were trout all over in the river and I never could get a pic of the bald eagle that we kept chasing down

Spot and stalk on this turkey. I made a 44 yard shot and got it all on video. This pic is saved from my friends camera thru email so its not the best quality. I'll post a better one later. Thanks

I was just looking through photos and thought this was neat.

I had one day back to work during rifle season but decided to go goose hunting in the morning. It was a cold, windy morning. We forgot to wear our orange hats.  (if you know the guy next to me,

This nice buck was pretty caught up with this doe. He had no care in the world besides her.

We had quite the experience out in MT. I had 2 blown tires at the same time and then we hitch hiked to Lews' pickup and drove back to get my rims and his fuel pump went out. So we had 2 undrivable

I passed up quite a few bucks bigger than this but after 2 breakdowns, blizzards and rainstorms I decided to take this buck.

.

I have all my tags filled now. My pal thirtythree video taped the harvest again. A young jake. I'm hoping Big J can smoke him for me!

caught a limit of perch 3 days in a row. I hope I didn't ruin the fishing for younger generations!

She passed up a couple small bucks and one 120 class buck with 1 side. She wanted a mature buck or a doe. We had several deer walk 2 yards from our "snow blind". We were able to watch her

I had to come and show walleye101 how to fish his own lake again.   28" walleye

A shot of a nice tom

Mandy made a great shot on this big bird with an 8 inch beard yesterday. We called him in but he hung up at about 35 yards. After watching him for a long time she figured it was now or never. Laid

I had hunted quite a few different times and had close calls and misses and finally pulled it together last Saturday. He was with another strutter but this guy was ruling the roost. Not so much anymore!

Went cranking with simmsjs yesterday afternoon. It was a great day on the water and the fishing wasn't too shabby either!

I just got this mount back today from Wayne Zespy from Lakota. He does excellent work and I would recommend him to anyone for fish. Looks the same as the day I pulled her through the ice

I shot my first ever bear in MN over the weekend. Mandy video taped the hunt and got some good footage. The bear made it about 10 yards after the shot. Not the biggest bear in the woods but my first

When I was out in Montana last week mule deer hunting I came across a herd of elk. Luckily I had an elk tag in my pocket. Where I was hunting I could only shoot a cow. These animals have a lot of

Well I hunted for 2 weeks straight between Montana and ND. I waited until the last day of the season to fill my tag. On Saturday morning my brother spotted a decent sized mule deer buck with 4 kickers

The wife and I just got back from Cabo. We had an absolute blast and caught many beautiful fish.

Talk about a fun fish to catch! It was one of my goals to catch one of these. Probably the hardest fighting fish I have ever caught. The wife and I both got into them. fun times.
