  • October – What a Month!0

    Ken Hunter

    October is a tough month for us outdoor types. What makes October so tough is the fact that there are so many different game animals that can be hunted or fish that can be caught; it’s just a great time to pursue a lot of various critters. As the cooler temperatures take over and the

  • The Roving Sportsman… Groundhogs, Woodchucks, Whistle Pigs0

    Jon Pries

    Young groundhogs, like the young of any species, are cute. But they quickly grow out of their “cute” stage and before long are spreading their wings and traveling to new locations, where they will burrow holes as entryways to their dens. All too often, these holes are a problem — either in open fields or

  • A Brief Look at Hunting Seasons and Regulations0

    Ken Hunter

    I’m sure the last thing on anybody’s mind right now is hunting unless, of course, you’re into groundhog hunting. The Pennsylvania Game Commission has come out with some new or changed rulings however that we hunters need to be aware of before the fall seasons get underway. I know, trying to keep up with all

    • June 20, 2018

    Law enforcement in this country has been taking it on the chin lately as the result of some high visibility, controversial incidents that have been taking place in various parts of the country. In Lycoming County, law enforcement owns a good reputation and the respect of the citizens, this may be the result in part,

    Jim Webb

    Well, the calendar reads May, and things are warming up. I’m not going to say it can’t snow, because this spring anything’s been possible. How nice is it though to sit out at a ballgame with a short sleeve shirt and shorts as that bright sunshine beats down on your shoulders? Sixty is the new

    Steph Nordstrom

    I’m not going to write much of a story this week. What can I say? For the 18th time this year, there has been another gun incident involving a school. This time 17 innocent people lost their lives. I am a proponent of the 2nd amendment. I believe that responsible, mentally stable adults have the

  • Some Game Commission Updates0

    Ken Hunter

    We are at that time of the year when most of our hunting is over; sure we can still chase rabbits and squirrels until the end of February and, of course, coyotes can be had anytime. Last week, I even spotted a distant field with a bunch of goose decoys spread over a large area.

    Happy Anniversary! January 22, 2003, we published the first issue of Webb Weekly. Our cover story was about the upcoming Super Bowl. Man, have we covered a lot since then.

  • The Roving Sportsman… Lesson Learned0

    Jon Pries

    I begin with a confession. Yes, I did recently pen an article in which I discussed choices of rifles and calibers when it comes to deer hunting. And, yes, I sang the praises of a .260 caliber rifle and the 120-grain ballistic tip bullet it uses. The truth remains that I have, over the years,

    The Roving Sportsman… A Tale of Two “Pops”0

    Jon Pries

    This is a story of two grandfathers doing what grandfathers often do — stepping up to the plate and hitting a home run… The story really begins with the return of Army Staff Sergeant Shawn Somits (John’s son and Scott’s son-in-law) from his final tour of duty in the Middle East. Shawn was always an

  • County Hall Corner: Budget Baby Birthday0

    Larry Stout

    In this column last year at this time, I wrote that a crude analogy could be made between giving birth to a baby and developing a government budget. The baby is incubated in joy, followed by a long and tedious growth process in the womb, and finally, in due time, through much agony and pain,

  • Heading to Deer Camp0

    Jon Pries

    The Pennsylvania Game Commission has just released a bulletin, as they do every year about this time, cautioning all motorists to slow down and stay alert for increased numbers of deer crossing the highways. The “rut,” or fall breeding season is about to peak, and the deer are definitely on the move. Many yearling bucks

  • Pennsylvania’s Black Bears0

    Ken Hunter

    I’ve always been somewhat fascinated by the fact that black bears roam our state’s forests and fields and I’m sure a lot of others share that idea. It’s intriguing to know that there is still a creature, in our backyards, that’s so big and powerful that it could easily take down an unarmed man if
