How to Create a Big Buck Honey Hole Now Where No One Else Will Hunt
7/29/10 - Generally older-age-class bucks live where you don't hunt. That's how they develop big racks and heavy body weights. You need to identify the areas on the land you hunt that no one else ever hunts, including: thick-cover areas; briarpatches next to the main gate; piled-up logs; limbs and brush out in the middle of a field; an overgrown ditch that you can't walk through; and head-high briar-thorn patches. Older-age-class bucks will live in places like these to avoid hunting pressure.
To survive and put-on weight for the winter, these bucks have to feed. Many hunting clubs and landowners plant green fields for wildlife and especially to harvest deer over, but when deer season arrives, the last place you'll probably encounter a white-tailed buck during daylight hours will be on those green fields. Mature deer primarily will feed in the green fields after dark.

Urge Senate to Pass Firearms Excise Tax Reform Now
On June 29, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Firearms Excise Tax Improvement Act of 2010 (HR 5552) by a vote of 412 to 6. The bill is now pending in the Senate.
This legislation corrects a longstanding inequity in the Internal Revenue Code by permitting firearm and ammunition manufacturers to pay the federal excise tax payment on a quarterly basis, like other industries that support conservation through a federal excise tax. Currently, manufacturers pay this tax on a bi-weekly schedule, forcing many manufacturers to borrow money to ensure on-time payment. Industry members spend thousands of man-hours administering the necessary paperwork to successfully complete the bi-weekly tax payments -- monies that are due to the federal government long before manufacturers are paid by their customers. This excise tax is the major revenue source of wildlife conservation in the United States. This legislation will not increase the federal deficit, nor does it reduce the excise tax rate -- it simply changes the payment schedule.
Call your senators today at 202-224-3121 and ask them to support Senate passage of H.R. 5552 before Congress adjourns for the summer.
