First-light

So I did my rounds at the six camera's we have out. The one closest to the road had a few ears of corn thrown out in front of the camera. They were broken in half husk off of them. My corn field is on the other side of the road about 100 yards away. Animal didn't do it because the break was clean. The prior lease guys were not happy when we took over. That is my only suspect but its been over a year now. Thoughts???

Had some storms just roll through. Deer were in the clover and never left even after downpour and thunder.

I have been working out lifting weights and running all my life. I take supplements. My new thing is Liver detox. Healthy liver gets rid of fat and does not store it on your body. My crutch is beer. I enjoy it too much to give up but I'll be turning 62 in April and its harder and harder to keep it off the stomach. I'm going to have to have a "Jesus come to meeting" about this. Venison is my red meat. Most of the time I eat veggies and just love it. My liver enzymes are moderately high. Doc is not worried but wants me to quit the beer during the week. I think I can do that. As far hunting season just be aware of your limits like Doc said. Ask for help when needed.

Buy online?

Thanks guys.

Happy Birthday!

So my plot consist of clover, chicory, radish and brassica. I know one bag said there was rye cover crop.

Saw first hard horn today. Nice 8pt on my lease property.

Happy Birthday Marine! Enjoy the day!

Nice buck Eddie!

Sad, RIP.

Love it, nice job!

True, it's not a given. My Doc hunts and actually been to my place and neighbors. Yes I would love to hunt all season with xbow but I would miss the compound. Think I'l wait until next year and make it my own decision.

Agreed.

I saw this New York State Senate Bill 2023-S5802A would allow hunters 60 and older to use a crossbow during the special archery season for deer. The bill is set to take effect on June 1, 2025

I wish!

Forgot to say on another camera we had a bear open up camera. It was open when we got the card. Looking at the piucts he was pissing around with camera and managed to get it open! All the picts where close ups of black fur!

Wedding, child birth the rest of your life taken by a drunk driver. After sentencing he said so I can get out on Thursday. I hear he can only be charged 10 years in prison. So many lives are lost to driving while impaired. It's about time some politician takes a stance to implement mandatory alcohol checks before you drive. Think about it you go to the doctor and get your O2 reading on your finger. How about that button we push to start the engine reads alcohol in your system. It can be done but nobody wants to take it on. We are thinking about going to Mars but can't implement these things. Big money rules.

I had a bunch that had half a deer in pict. These were the best. Strong Doe and I hope she makes the season to bless us with 3 more. I would guess she is 3.5 years old to 3 fawns. Today I went to my 5 star bank in Hornell and pulled up. There in the beautiful landscape was a dead fawn hit last night. A shame but I guess thats why some have multiple births.

Some nice 8 pts but loved this picture of the triplets!

What the hell just happened. The last two days I can't stay outside. These pests are all over like never before. Any ideas?

Blood stains were pretty much contained to that area. You have to be right about it getting caught. It's all but gone now. There was an eagle eating off of it this morning.

Yeah but not skinning it. That is the weird part.

Ok on the main road to 86 I see this deer thought it was two. Dead in the road crows and buzzards all over them. I get close its not two deer just one. The skin and head were ripped right off the body cavity. There lays the skin and there lays the body. No it was not skinned by someone for meat cause you can see the roasts and Loins, most of the loins picked over. It just amazes me.

Nice deer! Yeah been talking to a few of my neighbors about letting the 2.5 year olds walk. Majority of the deer by me grow nice racks at 2.5 and get shot. But what's missing is the mass. They aren't old enough to have huge mass and that is what I want this year and moving forward.
