I didn't realize the spider legs would get so lost in the web design, but once you notice them there's no mistaking. I may need to get some painting pointers from the Moogster to make the spidey pop,lol! Probably the only fisher skull I'll ever get my hands on unfortunately. Cool little heads to mess with! Possum and coon up next!

Yesterday's catch. 6lbs In the oven as we speak. Sent from my LGMP260 using Tapatalk

It's been a rough season...was extremely happy to discover this awesome palmated shed yesterday. No luck with the match yet.

After what seems like forever my pond was finally started this week. After digging for a few hours the builder called me and said he hit solid rock about 5 feet down. After talking it through with him we decided to keep digging the whole surface area I wanted and come back later this year with a rock hammer on his shovel to dig out the rock to put in the deep holes I wanted. He said ponds made in rock like this are typically really clear, cold and fairly weed free.

Should we argue about it for 17 pages so you have something to do this weekend ?

First attempt at knockoff Yelling Goat Berbere wings.....I give myself a 3 on presentation but an 8 on taste.....wife and daughter wanted traditional buffalo too. It will be fun to try again! Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Nice! If you can go at least 15 ft, a rock pond will sustain trout. My grandfather had one on the farm. Caught my first trout out of it, with him laughing, along side of me. One of my earliest, and best memories.

Nothing exciting, homemade burger with dry rub, salt, pepper, garlic, and topped with Sweet Baby Ray's sweet n spicy bbq sauce, and cheddar jack.

Skull from my Russian boar shot in Tennessee. Enjoying a Three Heads The Kind while reminiscing with my buddies. The big skull was a 750 lb feral hog. The other three were Russian boar ranging from 275 to 350. Cheers!

Some more pics

BBQ chicken, mashed taters, and steamed peas. FYI, sauce was Stubbs, seemed a little watery, had to spray the chicken with some EVOO to crisp up the skin for 3rd coating. Still good. Sent from my SM-S327VL using Tapatalk

We are talking about expensive leupold scope knock offs. And the point is, we shouldn’t support pirates of American products or any pirated products for that matter. There is a huge difference between cheap products and pirated products. I hope you can see that. Carry on with your posting.

2017/2018 NYS coyote season = Oct 1 to March 25.

It's another crappy weekend. So made a big pot of soup. Creamy tomato with sweet sausage and ricotta cavatelli pasta. Some garlic bread to go with it and that's prob dinner for a couple days.

You must be in a limestone area..here 5ft and rock = no pond.. it's all shale and water drains.. You need 7 to 8 ft to over winter fish unless you have flow of water.. a half acre pond ( average depth of 4 ft. can only support 120 to 160 lbs of fish. Which will let you take about 60 lbs of fish out a year example: 40-50 lbs of panfish, and 10 to 15lbs of bass. Do not over stock the pond !! Be smart a d start with crabs and minnows and snails you will never have a weed problem if you do. (And will never need a grass carp) stocking rates for predator prey should be close to harvest per year .. so 40 to 50 feeder fish ( panfish,perch) to 10 to 15 predator(bass,walleye) trout should be exclusive and only if the pond stays cold enough for them.

This guy trotted across the road in front of me on the way home from work, I was able to turn in and get a couple of pictures as he stopped .. Sorry about the sideways pictures.

Better than a Turkey foot sub? :-)

Venison jalapeño brats , onions and peppers.

We picked him up from the breeder yesterday, hes a 9 week old chocolate piebald rat terrier with hazel eyes. Hes a little mush, only 6lbs now will get to be 16lbs or less. His mom is 10lbs and dad 16lbs. Kids just love him.

Backstrap and onions, plain old bread and butter, homemade pickles, and some brussel sprouts from the Green Giant. Being a bachelor tonight. One without a camera. But one with plenty of Founders "All Day" in the fridge!

I took a few pics off the top of the dirt pile today. I think by the end of Monday they will have most of what they can do now done.... If it isn't raining too much!

I have killed a piebald buck here and have a few doe on cam. I had a speckled buck 3 years ago but never saw it again.. maybe it came back.. my neighbor is also my mailman so he gets to see a lot and keeps me informed on what he sees

Mmmmhhhhhmmmmmm. Nothing wrong with your choice of reading material Jeremy.

The first few years hunting Ohio we experienced alot of people trespassing onto property that we spent about $35 an acre to lease . Most of there reasoning was they felt like hunting the property was a privilege to them because they had hunted there before. i nicely try to explain that instead of getting mad at us get mad at the coal mine company leasing the land . In new york state a few years ago we leased a peice of property located next to the farm we hunt. shortly after the gentlemen who leased it to us called upset saying that he received a phone call from neighboring property owners that we were shooting deer quartering them and dumping them on someone else property shooting deer from the road . hunting at night etc. Now that being said . Do i believe that this happens sometimes . without a doubt unfortunately we live in a world of good and bad. But every year there seems to be an issue . Do i think it has to do with the fact that we are out of state hunters yes. could i be wrong yes. but i can assure you myself as a hunter has the upmost respect for the woods and i never take more then i need . and the amount i enjoy hunting i would never intentionally risk loosing that privilege or creating a bad name for us.

I can't wait for the season to start. Bought our bass boat in feburary. I have to walk by it every day in the driveway and its driving me nuts not being able to take it out. I check the report for chautauqua lake every day lol.

My late father always told me about dressing up for hunting that "you can always take it off if you take it with you but you can't put it on if you leave it at home." valoroutdoors.com

Got out on the big lake today, 5 man limit on browns, 4 Lakers, biggest brown topped out at 11 lbs. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

That is cool! As always, amazing work my friend!

Chicken finger sub

Looks like I'm the only duncie who went with chicken on venison brats and sausage night!

That would be a great spot to put up a trail camera for a few weeks.

Don't ya hate it when someone ask's this after a 'hunting' trip?

You get 1/2 a like.

How do you feel about the elimination of draw weight and minimum width restrictions, which I hear is also included in the current bill ? I would prefer that they be left in. I have done ok with a crossbow, which meets the current restrictions, and I am happy with a maximum range of about 50 yards. I definitely would not shoot further than that today, with my current equipment, because I learned that it does not provide enough penetration beyond that. I bought a laser range finder 3 years ago, and I now have all my stands and blinds flagged out to 50 yards, to make sure of that. I think having those restrictions prevents "too much" escalation of technology. By that, I mean that it helps keep "archery hunting" a short range game. That is a good thing, because there is a lot more to be learned from the sport by getting closer to the deer. A selfish reason that I have, for leaving those restrictions in, is that they put limits on any temptation for me to spend money on upgrading my current equipment. I really don't want to do that, because it has been 100% successful at putting deer down within 40 yards. That even includes the first one, where I underestimated the yardage and only had 8" of penetration at 59 yards.

Couldn't wait any longer some more mods to be done without the shrink wrap on...opened her up today.....can't wait!!!! Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

That is amazing...Came out nice .....

It looks like the fox is walking uphill .

very nice, and I bet if you painted the spider black it would really set it off...

Clearly you missed my epic fails of venison sausage on other threads. We find the best cheese and parsley from Stew Leonard’s Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm not sure how true it is but I've read that flowrecent lights and cell phone can throw off a digital scale. i like these little caliber specific manuals https://www.cabelas.com/product/shooting/reloading/reloading-manuals-videos/pc/104792580/c/104761080/sc/549335880/loadbooks-usa-caliber-gauge-specific-reloading-manuals/704597.uts?slotId=4
