I went to school in Green Ridge, moved to Nixa my junior year and graduated from there in 1983. I love hunting and fishing, and I fished professionally for bass and crappie for eight years. I started shooting archery for Bowhunters Pro Shop in the 80s and 90s, and moved back to Sedalia in 1993. I started MoKids Outdoors in 2004 to get kids more involved with outdoor activities. I've been hosting the Huntin' and Fishin' with Harry show for six years, and I love being back in central Missouri. I have three sons, a wife and a grandson. Thanks for checkin' me out!

Wounded Warriors and Youth Hunts Coming Soon
I love this time of year, it's great for everything. Even though youth soccer is about over, I bet those kids still wish it was going on. My best friend's son plays, and what an awesome time it is with all of the parents, grandparents and kids outside at Clover Dell Park. It's also great to see the support for the high school football teams on those chilly nights. I just love being outside!

Deer Huntin’ Tips from Huntin’ Harry
This fall weather is great! I love those cool mornings , and I don't even mind scraping off my car windows before heading to the woods. Here are a few things you should look for if your heading out to get that deer.
Bow Season is in Full Swing
The weather is cooling off nicely, the deer are moving and bow season is in full swing. Man, I love those calm mornings sitting up in the tree stand, watching the sun come up and the woods come alive, waiting for that buck that I've been hoping would come by.

Labor Day weekend came and went, and it was the best three-day weekend I can remember. I had an awesome time with family and friends. For those who don't know, the Pilot Grove Picnic is the best kept secret in our area.
It's a home-cooked picnic, and I mean fried chicken, homemade sides and all of the pies, cobblers and cakes you can imagine...

Lots of Outdoor Events Coming in September
The weather is great and the archers are all getting ready for bow season. I'm stoked, I've been seeing a lot of good bucks and great does. As a member of PETA... that's People Eating Tasty Animals, I like to fill my freezer with the does. They're tasty and really healthy for you.
MO Kids Outdoors Field Day and Trail Cam Photo Contest are Scheduled
The fair is over, the weather is great, and the kids are back in school. With a record drought going on, food plots are looking terrible, the creeks are low and the lakes are drooping. However, you can still catch crappie and some nice cats too. Plus, the deer are still looking great. It's also looking like there's going to be a lot of turkey this year too.
