After a failed attempt at trying to kill a South Carolina swamp gobbler a few weeks ago, my turkey season took a tag-filling turn this past weekend in northeastern Nebraska.

You've probably noticed that a bunch of guns these days are dressed with boxy black sights that say "EOTech." Military personnel and law enforcement officers have topped their AR-15s with EOTechs for years. But it's no longer just terrorists and thugs centered in the reticles of these high-grade holographic sights—critters are getting tagged courtesy of EOTech now, too.

I've been rocking Walt Gabbard's new CD to and from work. It helps me get through stoplights, traffic and all the other parts of the daily grind that I could do without. I'm sure it'll keep spinning as I'm on the road this spring to turkey hunts across the country.

As you read this, I'm headed to South Carolina to kick off my spring turkey season with fellow North American Hunting Club Life Members at Bang's Paradise Valley Hunting Club.

Walt Gabbard from Zink Calls just dropped another musical masterpiece that hunters will appreciate: "It's in the Blood."

The 2013 SHOT Show has come and gone. One of the last gear highlights I'd like to share from the event comes from Leupold. They've expanded their famous VX-6 line of riflescopes to offer a 3-18X50mm—a fresh offering that should make long-range shooters and hunters grin.

The upcoming April/May 2013 issue of North American Hunter will feature an intriguing article from Joe Arnette in his "Hunting Dogs" department. Joe will highlight some thought-provoking research about the social structure of wild wolf packs, which might prove contrary to what you think you know about wolves.
