Deer Goes Bananas After Crashing Into a Bus

Kyle Dowling — Thu, 16 May 2013 17:53:18 +0000

See? Deer really do come out of nowhere! Recently, a public transit driver in western Pennsylvania had an unexpected passenger board the vehicle. The above video shows a deer crashing through the windshield of a public bus and then proceeding to freak out beyond belief. We’re not sure if that’s because of the confined space, [...]

The Ups and Down of Winter Storms

Huntin' Harry — Fri, 01 Mar 2013 15:25:06 +0000

Winter finally made a big encore performance and it was a blessing. It may be a pain and we may complain about it, but the farmers and lakes really need the water. I think this added about three inches of moisture to the ground with both storms combined. We are still well below the norm, but every little bit helps. The storm brought a lot of trees down and left a lot of people without power. Thank you to all of the crews that were out there during the storm trying to keep up with all of the problems.

Deer season is over, and what a final weekend it was! It was MO Kids Outdoors’ first Wounded Warrior hunt, the first one ever held in Pettis County. The whole weekend was overwhelming. It started on Thursday when two of my guides began setting up blinds. Colby Bently from Joplin and Troy McGuiness from Nixa [...]

Radio Caller Doesn't Quite Grasp the Concept of 'Deer Crossing' Signs

Emerald Catron — Thu, 18 Oct 2012 22:00:33 +0000

This confused woman has got cause and effect all switched around. She called into a radio station in Fargo, North Dakota saying that deer crossing signs should be moved… so that deer would start crossing elsewhere. It’s nice that she assumes the animals possess so much intelligence, we guess. We commend the radio announcers for [...]

Bow Season is in Full Swing

Huntin' Harry — Fri, 05 Oct 2012 06:00:57 +0000

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. Does and fawns walk by [...]

Crappie, Deer and Prizes for Everyone

Huntin' Harry — Fri, 03 Aug 2012 06:00:46 +0000

The heat is still on, but it's almost fair time, so we're all used to it by now. As for the fishing, we're still catching crappie. My best luck has been at 25-30 feet of water, and 18-20 feet deep with a tip jig with minnow. As sun the sun goes up, move to the shady side of the trees. After about 10:00, go home and cool down, because it seems to shut down after that.

A family in Mora found the fawn [...]

Have You Hit A Deer With Your Vehicle? [SURVEY]

Sam Schleicher — Tue, 29 May 2012 14:15:48 +0000

I had a great Memorial Day weekend this year, spending time with old friends, drinking beer and spending lots of time in the sun. It would have been the perfect weekend except for one little incident that occurred late Sunday night on 65 South… Right around midnight, a deer decided it’d be a good idea [...]
