Men’s Classic All-Terrain Crocs by Realtree Edge




When you’re out hunting, it’s important to have the right footwear for the job. But what many people overlook is the importance of having comfortable and versatile camp shoes. As an experienced hunter, I highly recommend bringing a pair of shoes that are easy to slip on and off, and can be used in a variety of situations. That’s why I often choose to wear Crocs as my camp shoes.

Crocs may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of hunting footwear, but hear me out. These shoes are incredibly lightweight and easy to pack, making them perfect for a hunting trip where space and weight are at a premium. They are also waterproof, which is essential for river crossings or wet conditions in the field. Plus, they dry out quickly, so you don’t have to worry about damp feet for long.

One of the best things about Crocs is their versatility. Not only are they great for wearing around camp, but they can also be used as approach shoes on the stock or for short hikes in between hunting spots. They are comfortable to wear for extended periods of time, and the slightly more aggressive sole on my Crocs provides added traction for uneven terrain.

So, when packing for your next hunting trip, don’t forget to bring a pair of versatile and comfortable camp shoes. Consider investing in a pair of Crocs or something similar that is waterproof, dries quickly, and can handle a variety of situations. Trust me, your feet will thank you.

TAKE THE SHOT?: Black Death In The Brush

It was late in the afternoon when it happened; the buffalo we’d been tracking for hours suddenly materialized in a brushy patch some 150 yards away. We’d been hunting all day in brush full of nothing, and then suddenly it was full of buffalo – all bulls and all looking huge like dump trucks on a residential city street. One bull in particular stared us down, his head lowered, glaring at us from underneath his massive brows. It’s that bull my PH (Professional Hunter) told me to shoot, setting the quintessential African shooting sticks up for me with a real sense of urgency. I laid my rifle across the sticks and stared back at the buffalo through the scope. There was a medium-thin screen of leaves and twigs obscuring him. My finger found the trigger…

Putting Mossberg’s New Optic-Ready 500 Turkey to the Test

The Optic-Ready 500 Turkey is one of three new pump-action shotguns from Mossberg. Red dots sights have been used on shotguns in 3-gun competition for decades and I know turkey hunters that put red dots on top of their turkey guns years ago as well, but Mossberg has raised the bar by lowering the red dot down into the receiver of the Optics-Ready 500 Turkey. Mossberg milled, drilled, and tapped the model 500 receiver to allow a small red dot optic to sit at almost the same height as the ventilated rib. I can see the fiber optic front sight in the window of the Holosun EPS I installed on the 500 Turkey 20 gauge.

Never Miss Again Part 1: Trigger Control

My first shooting experience was with a Benjamin .177 pellet rifle. Its pump had fallen off a generation earlier and was repaired with a bent nail in place of the missing pin. The rear sight was also lost to history. This rifle taught me two valuable lessons. First, I needed to get as close as possible to my target to improve my chances of hitting it. Second, I learned the importance of consistently placing my cheek on the stock the same way every time. I later graduated to a single-shot .22 bolt-action rimfire rifle that my grandfather used during the Depression. According to his journal, a squirrel was worth just one penny more than a .22 bullet. Missing was not an option for him.
