Fletch - Are we going to get a deer during bow season this year ?

I don't like the idea of getting down from the stand with the bow cocked while lowering it . I decided to take a practice arrow along and take a test shot before getting down from the ladder stand . The problem is ... the X-bow will bury the arrow if it's too close . The discharge bag sounds like a good idea but I carry enough excess junk in the car as it is .......

I bought a Golf Ball Retriever at WalMart and cut the top part of the Circular thing off . The retriever is adjustable and holds the roof up quite well . It was a $13 investment to save $100 .

The "Hub" blinds are the way to go . Quite roomy . You also need a chair . Problem with chair is if you are on soft ground the legs will sink and be uneven . I left one out for 2 years and it was trashed by the weather . I replaced it with a new one and tried to shoot an arrow out of it . This was from an elevated platform . The new blind was different and the bottoms of the windows were higher . I would have to stand up to shoot . The Ameristep Dog House blinds are fine for gun / crossbow and also need a chair . These are the springy ones that fold up into a round backpack . They are worthless for shooting a bow out of them . I am only 5'8" with a 28" draw and the aren't big enough drawing a bow from . These blinds aren't sturdy enough to leave out for any length of time .

Was in my stand in Pittsford just before 2 pm .. It was cold and windy . I put out my cardboard decoy and a Rur Rageous scent stick . Didn't see anything until around 4 pm . Saw movement directly south of me but it was , you guessed it , Mama's Special Boy .He was walking around and smoking . I was hoping he would kick something out of the thick area .He finally walked off . I was getting my gear together around 4:45 and looked up the field . A spike was about 250 yards away heading my way . All I could think of was Go Away . I didn't want to shoot a spike . he got within 70 yardsstepped out of the wwod3ed area and was trying to get close to the deer but the spike bounded off and was looking at my decoy when he suddenly looked back . Mama's Boy stepped out of the wooded area and tried to approach the deer but it bounded off . The guy left and I got down after shooting a practice arrow into the soft ground 30 yards away . Wow ! It got dark fast !

Mama's Boy showed up a couple minutes ago. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

They should wait until January before indicting her / them .........

Since she lost I wonder if Bernie will have to give back the house that she allegedly bought for him ........

The People have spoken !

I plan to give the Pittsford stand another try this afternoon . I hope "Mama's Boy" isn't out there wandering around again . A NW wind is forecasted so if I put out a Scent Stick , if should blow toward the thick stuff .

I doubt if any of those BS'ers will leave . Remember when Alex Baldwin and others said they would leave if Bush won . Just another Hollywood liar ! Many folks said they would move to canada if Trump won . Why not Mexico ?

Well said , Doc .

If my time in the woods doesn't get any better I may have to go to the store where the meat is made. Lol Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk
