Congrats on the Birthday Buck !

Wooly --- You Da Man !

How about a Group Hug !

Happy Birthday Airedale! Happy Birthday Mowin!

Went to my friend's property in Walworth to check my trail cameras . I have 5 there but was only able to pull cards from two . The swamp was flooded . I wanted to see if it would be worthwhile to hunt there . The roof on my hub blind was caved in and the roof was filled with water and slush . The only thing that saved it from being destroyed was that I had left a plastic lawn chair inside and the roof hub landed in that . I went back to the pole barn and got a Folgers coffee container , bailed everything out of the roof and popped it back up . I got lucky . The only deer that had gone by was at nighttime .

I still have one of the old type Ranging Range Finder . It was pretty accurate but only had a distance of 75 yards . It worked on a parallax system like the old 35mm cameras to focus .

Happy Birthday FSW !

Got there around noon . My oldest son shot a small buck and almost had to float it out of the woods as the water is deep back there . My youngest son still wasn't feeling well and left before I got there . I sat in my pond blind stand until 4:30 and never saw a thing . Heard one single shot a ways off between noon and 4:30 .

Apparently you aren't smart enough to understand a joke ! Do I need to type slower ?

I am going to head for Geneseo around 11am today and hunt with two of my sons . Each of us have taken a deer from the property so far this gun season .

Survived shopping on Black Friday

Doe turned out to be a button buck . My oldest son and I did an afternoon hunt in Geneseo Friday November 23 . I used my elevated stand at the pond bank . I hadn't slept well Thanksgiving night and felt real tired . I closed my eyes a few times but stayed awake . At about 3 pm what appeared to be a doe stepped out in the open less than 75 yards away . She moved into the weeds and I hoped I could get a good shot through them . If the deer moved further , it would be in the thickets . I put the 25-06 on the bi-pod , pulled the hammer back and fired . She dropped right where she stood . I waited a few minutes , got down , took a quick picture and got back in the stand . Around 4 pm my oldest son came down with his ATV and the sled . He said he would field dress it for me . I had the tag made out and when I went to attach it to and ear I realized that it was a button buck and not a doe . Anyway , it's in my son's freezer and it was one less tag to eat .

Darn deer

Broke the ice and shot a doe at 3 pm . She dropped in her tracks. I love my 25-06 single shot. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

Not a hunting item but a great deal ! I was in the market for a Vacuum Cleaner . In the new Consumer Reports book , the Dyson Ball Multi Floor 2 was rated the highest but at a price of $400 . I saw the Kohl's ad with it on sale for $250 . After dinner yesterday , we stopped at Kohl's to pick one up . A woman was walking around getting people to sign up for Credit Cards . I didn't want one but there was an offer for 35 percent off of the purchase so I signed up . There were very long lines at the checkouts but she gave us a slip to go directly to Customer Service and avoid the lines . The price was $162.49 plus $13 tax for a total of $175.49 for a $400 Vacuum . Not bad ! Plus my wife was given a $60 voucher to be used for an in store purchase next week . I think we did okay ......

Happy Thankgiving

In another thread , fatal shot was brought up . A gut shot deer can travel a log way as well as it can with other wounds and be claimed by another hunter . What so yo consider a "Fatal Shot" ?

Here is a Black Friday deal from TSC

What the heck is going on ? My oldest son and I went to Geneseo this am . He used his gun stand and I set up in the Laneway in a double chair blind . I had visibility to over 200 yards . Nothing came in . I saw nothing from 7 am to 4:30 pm . My son only saw the small spotted fawn that I had seen during Crossbow Season . Only heard 2 shots all day long and they were in the distance . We might try an afternoon hunt Friday . Bummer !

Thet thar's a gud'un !
