4P came to life yesterday. I saw 2 bucks cruising in the am. The afternoon I laid some scent out and had a 6 point come running right in within 15 minutes. My first crossbow kill. On my way out another 6 pt crossed my path and he paid no attention to me. From seeing 4 deer all bow season to 4 bucks in one day!

I'm not far behind you! I've seen 4 deer in about 65 hours of hunting. Hoping this will change. -
I fill out the DEC Bowhunters log sheet. I didn't kill myself in October. As of now i have hunted 63.5 hours and I have next week off.

Ideal Hinge cutting
bigpaul replied to sailinghudson25's topic in Land Management, Food Plots and QDM
Hinge them whenever you get the time. Learn to use Knots to your advantage when hinging more difficult trees like Maple. -

I hunted in the rain with a trigger stick. The next day it wouldn't support any weight and kept sliding down. The tube got water in it and it would leave a smear of ice on the stick when extended. Primos sent me a new one but it only comes out on sunny days.

I planted 6 apple trees behind the house on Wednesday with about 3 or 4 inches of snow in that area. Today the kid is out there throwing her disc and shot put. Sure enough the disc lands about 3 feet from a 3 point shed. 47 years old and I have yet to find a shed!

I picked up a few cans and other garbage along the snowmobile trail yesterday.

I hinge cut them back in January. The deer fed on them pretty good until the deep snow pushed them off the hill. I plan on doing more hinge cutting when the snow melts down. A good 18" to 24" of snow up there right now. I received 6 apple trees on 4/4 and no where to plant them yet. Snow and frozen ground.

Burned 8 cords, and have 5 to go. No problem.

Anyone else have property in the wind farm project zone?
bigpaul replied to First-light's topic in General Chit Chat
There are several wind turbines just east of Cleveland, Ohio in a commercial section of the city. They look like they belong there. They don't all need to be out in the country. -
Damn cell phones!

I have an outdoor boiler. I have a tri axle load delivered for $650, cut split and stack myself, about 8 cords. I also harvest about 4 Cords around the house. Some years I have some left over, last year I burned it all. I have not bought fuel oil since 2008. So I heat a 1750 sq. foot home plus full basement and hot water for less than $1000 a year.

If you have a branch above, tie the top hub up.

anyone out there hunting or is it to cold to hunt
bigpaul replied to sweet old bill's topic in Deer Hunting
I had 8 degrees this morning. I saw a spike and a 5 or 6 pointer chasing a doe around. Cold but no wind! -
4P I've seen alot of bucks the last 4 days I hunted. None of them were following does. I think I have only found 15 rubs and 1 scrape so far. The bucks would stop to me grunting, bleating and I even tried a snort wheeze, but none made any progress in my direction. Good luck to all!
-
The young bucks are cruisin'. More rubs poppin up daily, I have only found 2 scrapes so far. Almost had a shot at an eight on Saturday. He responded to a grunt but couldn't get him in close enough. I saw 3 bucks that morning, no does. I'm just on the other side of the village from you towards Delhi.

First few weeks were slow for me. The last 2 weeks I've seen a lot of 1 1/2 year old bucks. The best is yet to come!
-
Saw 3 bucks this morning all by themselves.
-
I'm greedy, both!

I've gotten alot of Bobcat pictures in the last 2 years in 4P.

Just to let you all know, I went with my name and full address on my posted signs. I ordered them with Voss signs and I had them within a week. A very pleasant company to deal with and a quality sign that should last for years. Thanks for all the input!
