MY BIL in PA just sent me this pic he took of a big buck he saw in his back yard yesterday. This guy knows how to survive the hunting season.

Not if you pass up all the deer you could've shot for meat while waiting for a trophy that may not get tagged this tear. And not if you don't fill doe tags. Very few trophy hunters will put 3 deer in the freezer during rifle season.

All it take is the right 5 acres. You can own a thousand acres, but if you are not in the right spot at the right time, it won't do you any good.

I gave permission for a fella at work for him and his buddies to hunt my property with their hounds this weekend to run coyotes. I told him I brush hogged much of the fields, so they should be able to get decent shooting, and I left my gate open so they can have easier access. He was appreciative, said thank you, and said he would let me know if they are successful. Fingers crossed they take a few out!

Just got the text from the local guys that they will start hunting tomorrow with dogs for Coyotes. Hope they do well this year. All the neighbors signed on to let them hunt our properties. I'll let you know how they do!

I have his cousin in my Backyard , gotta give them a hand on Survival !

I try not to worry too much about why other people hunt. I am just happy that they do hunt. If trophies are your thing that is between you and yourself and not really anyone else's business. If you simply want to hunt regardless of size, that too is just your own business and nobody else's. At my age, I have stopped worrying about impressing anyone but myself. I am pretty happy that I can still climb that damned killer hill behind the house and live to tell about it.....lol. The first legal deer that comes along that is not a fawn is in big trouble. i guess that is what my version of a trophy has become. I hope there is no one here that thinks less of me for that.

With very little fat.

Take the blinders off Politicians are good at twisting wording and making it all seem rosey red. The Safe Act is meant to do one thing, put the firearms sellers out of business in New York. The politicians know it and won't let up until the agenda is complete.

I find it funny when hunters use the term’s Trophy and meat hunters. You do know that those of us that choose to only kill Trophy mature bucks get just as much if not more meat then those so called meat hunters. Probably More.

Happy belated birthday.

Look at that beast. Imagine what he will look like next hunting season.

I had the crosshairs on a Jet Black Squirrel today but I gave him a pass, getting soft in my old age. I came to the conclusion I would rather see him running around in the woods than stuffed and sitting mounted on my mantle. Al

I am going to alter my recipe somewhat...I have always used a very simple recipe. Simmer the heart with a bayl leaf until done... Allow it to cool in it's own broth... Slice the heart..Layer it in a nonmetal container, layer of heart, salt&pepper, layer of sliced onions, etc. Cover with a brine 50/50 water and cider vinegar....Keep in fridge.. I do like tthe idea of the cider/sugar mix and the pickling spices....
