Food Plot Time

What a weekend. We loaded up the trucks, hauled the tractors, and tried to beat the South Georgia heat long enough to plant food plots before deer season. It was 95°, dusty, and dry as a bone, but we made it happen.

Between broken feeders, hog damage, and getting a side-by-side stuck (don’t ask), we somehow got it all done. Huge thanks to Cary from Wildlife Farming for bringing out the new seed drill, and the whole crew for sweating it out to get these plots in before the rain.

If you’ve ever wondered what real hunting camp life looks like, this is it. Long days, bad jokes, hard work, and a lot of laughs.

Kentucky Heat Wave!

We’re out here with the Three S Ranch crew and Michael Lee, sweating through our clothes, swatting mosquitoes, and trying to stay sane in a deer blind that feels more like a sauna. It’s early season in Kentucky, and nothing’s going smoothly, borrowed gear, deer showing up just after camera light, and enough heat to make you rethink your hobbies. But that’s hunting. Some days you grind it out, some days you just melt through it.

This one’s got a little bit of everything: a debate over bringing a window unit, some questionable analogies, and a few solid encounters with Kentucky bucks. If you’ve ever hunted in weather that made you question your decisions, you’ll get it. Grab a cold drink, sit back, and ride out the heat with us.

In this vlog, you’ll see the ups and downs of a real dove hunt: jokes about snake boots and seagulls, the heat finally breaking, missed opportunities, a few birds in the bag, and plenty of laughs with my dad and buddies. At the end of the day, we put some mourning doves on the grill, wrapped them in bacon, and enjoyed the kind of memories that make hunting special.

WORST Dove Hunt in History?

Opening week of dove season didn’t exactly go as planned. Instead of a fast limit, we battled missed shots, tough shells, and a slow field on a Monday afternoon hunt. But that’s hunting – some days it’s about the birds, other days it’s about time with friends and family in the outdoors.

Gun Jammed Or User Error?

We spotted two big gobblers way out across a Kentucky field 120 yards and closing. Kevin was masked up, the KFI Impala Plus was dialed, and we were creeping through the timber trying not to breathe too loud. But just as it all lined up… CLICK!. Not once. Twice.

Kentucky Kick Off

We were in the Kentucky turkey hunting woods way before daylight. Woke up a 4:30am to get a head start. I was out there with my buddy Ryan Whitaker from 3S Ranch and Jordan Brake running the camera, chasing Easterns on the first morning of the hunt.

Texas Gobbler and Hogs!

This wasn’t just a turkey—it looked like a dinosaur. Long beard, hooks like needles, inch and an eighth spurs. We hit the woods in Texas, worked the call, and it was game over.

First One At Home

Join Backwoods Life host, Michael Lee, and his dad, Mike Lee, as they kick off a rainy Georgia morning in turkey hunting in search of spring gobblers. After a slow, wet start, the action heats up when Michael calls in a group of fired-up midday gobblers—and the hunt takes a wild turn! Later, Michael takes Beth Lee out for a special hunt on their own property. The stakes are high, and the excitement is real as Beth sets her sights on tagging the very first gobbler ever taken from the family land.

Georgia Opening Day Double

Opening day in Georgia came in hot! A sneaky gobbler slipped in behind us, and when he wouldn’t swing around for the camera, I had no choice but to spin and drop him on the spot! Then it was Dad’s turn—he fired up the call, brought a longbeard strutting into the decoys, and sealed the deal with a perfect shot.
