Three top spots for arrowing an early-season buck
The opener of any hunting season is always cause for excitement, but when it comes to the dawn of the annual archery deer hunt, I’m truly jazzed.
While the rut gets most of the attention from whitetail nuts, I’d take the first two weeks of the September season over the entire month of November if I’m targeting a mature buck. I have a hard time convincing people of this, but I have at least three solid reasons, and they’re all in my man cave; my three largest bucks have all been shot in the first two weeks of the season.

Patrick Durkin: Wisconsin’s Roy Case launched bowhunting’s ‘shot almost heard round the world’
Bowhunting historian Bill McCrary says it’s accurate to call Racine’s Roy I. Case (1888-1986) the father of Wisconsin bowhunting and co-founder of the Wisconsin Bowhunters Association.
“Roy Case left his fingerprints on every aspect of archery in Wisconsin during his era,” McCrary said.
But even those acknowledgments probably sell Case short. McCrary, 79, of Madison, says no other bowhunter can equal the impact Case had on archery and bowhunting in Wisconsin the past century.

Grand times fishing can be had on Michigan’s Grand River
The Grand River is Michigan’s longest river at 256 miles. Other than below the 6th Street Dam in Grand Rapids, it doesn’t see much fishing pressure, especially in the summer months.
Once it enters southwestern Ingham County, it transforms into a classic rock-infested smallmouth river. Beginning in Eaton though Clinton, Ionia and Kent counties, the Grand River is smallmouth heaven.
