Good News!

We're having a dove hunt again on September 1st to get brushed up for the ducks. I've seen the field and we've already got some birds and with harvest starting with surrounding fields next week, it looks promising.

The field we are hunting is one of the farmer's favorite dove fields..… one of the dove's favorite and easy to find downed birds. more »

Time for our annual trip. Family friendly fun on the banks of Spring River Oaks camp sight. We have several spots on the island reserved from last year, so let me know if you can make it for Father's Day on the River.

Just a heads up that you'll be seeing the usual crops this season, plus a couple new ones to us. A lot of folks dream about hunting over flooded corn......if the weather cooperates, that will be us. Also, our farmer is planting a couple fields in peanuts as an experiment. more »

I could use a few extra set of hands this weekend at the club. It is so dry and baron, I'm taking advantage of the extremely dry spring and working on the pits that need gates and TLC via welding. Easy work, but a very short window of opportunity. more »

Around lunch, Sunday March 11, 2012 Larry finally passed. Most pancreatic cancer patients live less than 6 months, but he fought for 14 months. He did so we could enjoy him longer and we did. I've never met a 60+ year old man that natuarally built wisdom into the younger generation like he did. He touched many folks lives with honest wisdom and "nothing in it for him" care. more »

Good news everybody!

Since you last saw The Den, it has undergone some significant expansion!

We've added a 6-seat hot tub outside the mud room. It runs at 104 with lots of bubbles. Great for easing that "I'm getting old..." feeling after a long day in the field. more »
