Tried a bunch of suits, prob in the other threads somewhere, but the Arctic shield jacket and bibs has done the trick for me. I am ALWAYS cold so it's a solid review. I liked it so much I bought new suit a few years back because the camo pattern changed. They are also one of the cheapest suits out there...

Same here. Went to school with one of the family, and have been going there for years. Always love heading to the back of the property and checking on that giant stand up in the tree. With the weather today, we are postponing getting the tree, unless things change quickly. Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

A glorious day to have your gun buck tag punched ! I can't imagine grinding it out with this rain/ice/wind. Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

Update on the cow ?!! Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

Thankfully our farmer we lease to has a vintage combine and there's always plenty left over plus our agreement is to leave some standing in strategic spots. Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

That's great to have a partner like that. Good luck!!! Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

Happy Thanksgiving ! We used to do a family hunt Thanksgiving morning, which was a tradition in my family dating back well before I was even thought of. My uncle is the only remaining blood that hunts and he's had a pile of surgery's and side effects won't allow him in the stand. My bro in law and father in law hunt, but aren't typically able to make it so this year I decided I was going outside the "legal" family and just asking my buddy's who love to put in stand time. So,[mention=5278]The_Real_TCIII[/mention] , my fishing buddy and my dad headed down to our camp in Franklinville. We were greeted with high winds, some rain, some snow, some more winds and some ice pellets. It was a tough sit this am for sure. Once the wind died down I had a great feeling we were gonna have some action. All I kept hoping for was to hear somebody's gun roar, all am long.... Not a deer seen by the 4 of us, so TCiii and I did a slow mooch towards my dad and my buddy. Cell service is awful and TCiii and I were slowly making our way along when I got a text from him and knew I was a bit ahead of him on our parallel drive. Then the phone rang, and TCiii had a a couple doe sneak between us right back to where we had come from. I decided to get up a touch higher where I could see a clearing in the hardwoods and wait. A few minutes went by when I caught a glimpse of a deer heading up the hill right at me from the opposite direction. I saw a rack, that was at/outside the ears and looked fairly tall. At that moment, regardless of age, size, or inches I knew I wanted to take him. I dialed in the scope and waited for a shot. The only one I got was a walking, heavy quarter too, and when I sent it I immediately saw a giant hole in his side as he piled away right down towards TCiii. I started my track and had good blood right away and a clear disturbance from him running. He went about 80-100 yards and I found him laying under an apple tree trying to get up. I gave him some time to "go to the light" and he finally mustered up enough to get up on all fours so I sent another round his way (still have to do autopsy to verify I hit/missed). He gave up and I waiting to TC to come so we could walk up together. Turns out, my dad had gotten out of his stand and headed to the ridge for a better view and must have bumped this deer back to me. He was full of #1 and #2 more than I've ever seen on any deer, so he must have been laying there all morning. What a great Thanksgiving it was, and I was glad to spend it with my hunting Family. I am blessed to have punched 2 buck tags, that's for sure ! First kill with the 308. Hornady SST 165grain did awful things to him.... #Team1000 Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

BBD Turkey day surprise ! Was able to share the experience and recovery with@The_Real_TCIII Franklinville ridge runner down. HAPPY THANKSGIVING !!!!! Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

My man !! Congrats again !! Your a great dad!!!! Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

Kudos on the effort for a recovery. I'll say this, having an actual picture of the hair would mean more than any high def video or slow motion. "brown hair" is a very generic term in pin pointing shot placement. A deer is 70% "brown hair". If you go back, and it's still there, grab as much hair as you can and bring it home. Take some high def pics and let's see what we see !! By no means am I trying to put you down, just trying to let you know I am a firm believer in using hair as the first step in starting a recovery. And if you have never plucked hairs from all over a deer and compared them, you won't believe the differences you will find in the "brown hair". Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

So, in this "Q&A" it says you CAN be arrested..... That's not true. Either way. This is why I only trespass with Moog. No, not cause he's a lawyer.... Cause I can run faster. Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

Here We Go Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

Too many reasons to list. The outdoors. Always something different. The challenge. The rewards. Spending time with my dad. Tradition. Meat. Antlers. The chance at a mega giant. Actually took a pic tonight of one of the reasons. Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

Beautiful red head Grampy !!! Looks like a bullseye shot too! Nice work!!! Does he have a double throat patch too ?? GET HIM ON THE WALL !!! Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

Well, you must have a dang good spot or just be very confident if your asking about taxidermy before you have laid one down ! Most butcher shops will "cape" a deer for you and you can take that right to the taxi. Field dressing.... Lots of videos online, just go slow when it's your turn. I'm far from your area but I believe there are some fellas from down that way. Good bunch of guys here, somebody from your area will chime in. Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

I've been on the rage kick from the get go. Extreme for vertical and xbow. Haven't been let down yet and always amazed at the holes it leaves. Worry more about shot placement than broad head. My .02 Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

I think Kate scores a deer, before lunch. BOOK IT Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

My advice is very simple. A phrase I use with nothing but confidence in you and your rifle...... SEND IT Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

It's definately cool to look back at pics of harvested deer. Even better when you have years of pics of the same deer then finally make it happen. Congrats again ! Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk
