I just had a hen pheasant run across the road in front of me on Lake Road, near Salt Road in Webster. First hen pheasant I have seen in years. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

Speed doesn't kill , accuracy does . A crossbow in the hands of someone who doesn't practice is worthless .

How much do you shoot your deer rifle/shotguns
fasteddie replied to Buckmaster7600's topic in Rifle and Gun Hunting
I seldom shoot mt 25-06 or shotguns . I should shoot my 20 ga Savage bolt action much more as I still havn't gotten used to the accu trigger . -
I would consider this a part of hunting gear as I will always carry it in my car when I hunt . My youngest son , Nick , is someone who is pretty much up on electrical gear . He showed me how he jumped a dead battery to start his Lawn Mower . It thought it was pretty neat but didn't want to spend $100 for something I might never use . I bought an AntiGravity XP1 jump starter / power supply kit like he has and put it under the car seat . Last week after a morning hunt I sat in the car with the radio on . I had to have the key turned on in order to do this . I was checking emails and Tapatalk and then put the phone away . I turned the key to start the car and no luck . Oh crap ! I forgot the headlights were on also . I turned them off and tried again but no luck . I got out the case with the Jump Starter , hooked it up , hit the button , got in the car and it started right up . What a relief ! Not stranded in a field . These things have connectors that cords that allow you to charge other things like a phone , etc . I am not pushing any brand . I only got this because two of my sons have this make and model . There are other brands that are probably as good or maybe even better . I am just thankful that I had this when I was hunting alone and parked off the highway . https://www.ebay.com/itm/Antigravity-Batteries-XP-1-Multi-Function-Jump-Starter-and-Power-Supply-Kit/232330554366?epid=1525372455&hash=item3617faebfe:g:0GgAAOSwcB5ZE09E

I have had 4 opportunities to take a shot at 4 four point bucks and never raised the bow at any of them . I would sooner take a doe or a bigger buck . I may end up eating buck tags but my family won't starve if that happens . Toward the end of gun season or ML season , I might change my mind . Last year I shot 4 doe and had no reason to take any small deer .

I bought one of the Tri-Pod stands and had a spot where I planned to put it but ...... with the rain and the water having no where to go , it was just too wet to install it . The area is too muddy . Even putting it on 2 X 8's would be a problem as they would rot .

I doubt that you see it . The view is "from the stand" ...........

Went back to Geneseo and sat in my double stand by the Buffalo Ditch . Was there in pitch black and didn't see anything all morning . Started my coughing spell at 10:30 and left at 11 . Couldn't play the wind in any of the stands . Texted my youngest son who was hunting with his brother in Mendon . Neither saw any deer but Nick said he saw 2 coyotes . Once it started raining I wasn't about to go back out .

Sitting in a double stand in Geneseo. It is so quiet in the woods. The wind is not in my favor . When I left home I saw 2 doe just off the side of the road about a quarter mile from my house . The guy that mows the trails for the gvhc cut them since Wednesday . I wonder if that will affect the deer travel . Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

fasteddie replied to turkeyfeathers's topic in Deer Hunting
I needed the extra tags last year . I shot 2 doe during gun season and two more during ML season . -
Congrats on getting your deer . See how this works .

fasteddie replied to turkeyfeathers's topic in Deer Hunting
Don't know as I need the extra tags if I can't fill the ones I already have . It is my understanding that the tags are good from Nov 1 thru the end of deer season . -
Congrats .., Great looking deer .

Ditto .... I havn't had a cold in years . My age must be catching up with me .

I hope to get back out Saturday. Trying to shake this cold, sore throat and cough . Feeling pretty crappy right now . Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

Sat in a stand in Geneseo this am from 6:45 to 10 am . Had 2 doe and a fawn feeding in the neighbor's field from 8:15 to 8:30 . That was it . I acquired a col and felt pretty crappy . Took a walk to the woods and checked out the cameras . When I unlocked on of them , the locking tab was broken and the SD card was gone . This is my SILs property and the same woods where 6 posted signs were removed . Someone is screwing around here . I helped my SIL with a couple jobs and left . Stopped at WalMart and got some medication for the cold . Sat in my stand on a friend's property in Walworth for almost 3 hours and saw zilch . Going to rest up tomorrow as I feel terrible !

I will be off to Geneseo again tomorrow morning . I hope the farmer has the beans combined so I can take the ATV to the woods . THe grass is high and it's like a swamp trying to get past the pond . If I tried , I would probably bury the ATV . The pond leaks and the water has no where to go but just lay there . It has been too wet for the guy who mows the trails for the GVHC ( Tally Ho the Fox ) . If the beans are down , I can ride around it .
