    This is so true. A lot of science and research has gone into this. Your eye cant pick up the so called extra light a 50mm can bring in. However a wider fire of view is a nice feature.

    Not a lot of meat on a bird? 200 pound buck lots of meat?

    I used to get so pissed off not finding a stand in my sister’s woods. I bought some of those tacks that illuminate in my red headlamp, problem solved. Like you i was always right by the stand but covered in sweat and all the deer had blown out of the entire county by daylight. Marking tape works well to unless you don't want to advertise your stand location so much.

    Wegmans usually has at least choice beef. However 20 a pound isn’t too outrageous for good beef. Poke around the internet for Wagyu beef, you will be blown away!

    I expected a core lokt bash before I clicked the link. I like them a lot more than the old Winchester power point. Im interested in trying the new tipped core lokt ammo

    Id say 5 or older, spine and belly have some sag. Possibly 4 but with that funky rack he looks like he has some age to him.

    When we push we have the shooters either in tree stands or sitting up on ladders. Shooting at a downward angle in safe directions is the only way we do it. Plus we do slow moving pushes, more of a wind bump scenario not guys arm width apart yelling and clapping.

    I think that is more or less the pattern of regular firearm season. Deer go to a swamp and hunker down until the bullets stop flying. I recommend going out with a muzzleloader and hunt over some food in the late season. Years ago all the big land owners would have giant organized drives through all the farm land. It would be nothing to see 20 guys on the side of the road. Now the farmers lease their land. People watch too many youtube hunting shows and just sit in the same stands waiting for some deer they got one picture of in September.

    How do those jigs work for ice fishing? Great buck by the way.
  22. SpacemanSpiff
    Beautiful buck. Hope he gets a quality shoulder mount done. @luberhill, sometimes luck is on someone’s side. To be honest i used to say that a lot. Then I started bow hunting and I began to see all kinds of deer. Maybe not in range but i was seeing bucks! A lot can hinge on what kind of neighbors you have as well.

    I have killed a few with a .223 shooting barns copper bullets. I like to shoot them right below the head in the neck. It is like someone just shut the lights off. I wouldn’t take a deer with that caliber over 100 yards. I took this doe last year in December 6 at 4pm. She didnt even twitch, the shot was around 80 yards.

    I made a hot Italian, chorizo and pepper-onion sausages last weekend. All came out amazing. I used the recipe for the chorizo from the Meateater cookbook. It calls for two kinds of chili power i disnt have. I just doubled with regular chili powder. Highly recommend. The pepper and onion and Italian sausage i used a pre mix from a local menonite grocery store. Both were better than expected.
  25. SpacemanSpiff
    I did that last year. Left no lube in there to my knowledge. I cant imagine what else it could be tho. Im going to strip it again tonight thanks for the tip
