Meet Rocky Kent, a Litigation Paralegal from Colorado with pure, raw passion for the outdoors. The first time I saw her name was with this post on Facebook in one of my favorite groups: I went on my first hunt this past weekend, hog hunting! And it WAS AMAZING! I was the only female atContinue reading “Wild Woman Spotlight – August”

Let the Woods Humble You
There are so many reasons I love being in the woods and on the water. So many, I don’t know that I could put all of them on paper. There’s something though that I rarely hear about when people talk about their experiences in the woods, and I didn’t start to understand it until IContinue reading “Let the Woods Humble You”
When I Fell in Love
I stumbled across a podcast this week on Instagram called Mindful Hunter. I highly recommend listening to his podcast, and following him on Instagram, especially this particular episode. He interviewed a woman from Texas named Lyndsey Kotrla (give her a follow too!). They talked about something briefly that really stuck with me, and that wasContinue reading “When I Fell in Love”
Some Healthy Competition
Sibling rivalry. It’s a thing, we all know it. My brother Karl is almost 6 years younger than I am, and I will never forget how upset I was when he was finally old enough to join us on hunting and fishing outings. Once he started joining, I knew that meant he’d be tagging alongContinue reading “Some Healthy Competition”
To My Tribe
I can’t really describe the feeling behind a successful hunt. I could try, but I don’t think I would be able to do it justice. There are so many emotions wrapped in the adrenaline that consumes me in the woods after harvesting an animal. The first thing that I want to do is tell everyone.Continue reading “To My Tribe”
Wild Woman Spotlight -June
This month’s Wild Woman Spotlight is a lovely lady from Oakwood, Ontario named Toni Cooper. Back in the spring she posted a picture on IG of her with some beautiful turkeys that caught my eye. Part of her post that really moved me was what she wrote about the people she hunts with. I amContinue reading “Wild Woman Spotlight -June”
So Many Questions
I don’t think anyone really understands the time,effort, or dedication that is put into hunting and fishing unless they actually do it. Getting up at 3:30 in the morning to go sit in the dark, sometimes shivering in the cold, or sitting around the lake for 8 hours, only to catch a few small fish.Continue reading “So Many Questions”
Dear Dad
It’s been over a week since I have really written anything, and I can’t explain why other than I just needed a breather. Allowing myself that break and just to enjoy the things I love in the moment was very cathartic, not to mention much needed, so I decided not to beat myself up overContinue reading “Dear Dad”
Constructive Criticism or Killing Enthusiasm?
There has been a little grey cloud following me around this week, as a FB user decided to comment on a couple of my posts in a negative way. First I was told that I am not a writer. I am writing to share the joy that I get from doing what I love withContinue reading “Constructive Criticism or Killing Enthusiasm?”
Use Your Voice, Make Some Noise
Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife is currently in the process of trying to reach an agreement for increasing the license fees. Their original proposal showed a direct increase in 2022 with not only increases to the direct hunting and fishing license fees, but also increases in permits and stamps, as well as a fewContinue reading “Use Your Voice, Make Some Noise”
