  1. I planted with my daughter 11 years ago 250 white spruce. Most of them took. Some are over 12 feet tall. Beautiful trees. Good luck. All bought from the saratoga Nursery.
  2. To me it looked like a low shot maybe clipping the opposite front leg and maybe lower belly. Plenty of white hair.
  3. Full moon is Oct 31st. Going to be interesting.
  4. I know why I hunt but man this year I was not up to it. I just love it but wasn't feeling well or sleeping that much. What happens I get a nice 7 pt with the bow and a 9 pt two days later on the opener! Go figure just wished I could of enjoyed it more. We had a 4 month old and a 9 year old at camp this year it was the highlight!
  5. 11 bucks and a few doe taken by my place in Howard. Processor was real busy. I came in Sunday morning and was # 170
  6. Nice buck 9pt I took this morning at 9:30. Neighbor missed him twice but I didn't. Dropped in his tracks! Redish head and his bottom legs are piebald like even the claws.
  7. Shot a nice 9pt this morning. Big pretty deer. Love the orange on the head. 40 yards dropped in his tracks.
  8. Had a lotr of opened scrapes Thursday night and brother and Niece saw some chasing. Good luck today!
  9. My brother and Niece hunted this afternoon. Scrapes were opened last night and chasing was going on today. My niece missed a beauty tonight, buck fever! Brother missed one also deflected off a branch. They saw a ton of deer tonight. I had originally thought my bean field was plowed over but he only did the first third. There are plenty of beans left after it was cut that the deer are hitting. Good luck tomorrow!
  10. Got my buck yesterday not a great shot but it hit an artery. Died in 20 seconds or so. 15 yards been a while since I took an archery buck. Happy!
  11. We each saw the same spike buck tonight. Came within 20 yards both stands. I'm telling you the amount of coyotes on trail cams is huge and the nightly ritual of howling makes you uneasy out there! lol
  12. Got it done this morning! 7pt at 7:30 came in behind me wouldn't stop. Hit him back but got liver and artery. Went down in less than a minute. Was hoding out for something bigger but time was running out.

  14. So I posted this picture of a sow with three cubs. Now looking at the sow she is pretty big and her cubs are 2 years old and good size. This was taken mid October. I would imagine she kicks those cubs out this year, mates and the cycle starts again?
  15. Been at camp since sunday night. Been bow hunting with my brother. We are taking iy easy, I'm not feeling that great, been out a few times. I saw a nice buck along with a smaller one but they winded me. Too damn cold, we spent the afternoon from 2:45 till dark in stand could hardly make it back to camp! lol Maybe one of us connects this week no pressure! Some trail picts
  16. Story had some mature doe bedding in a thicket. Hunter put out a doe decoy. Well two mature does went to check it out and the big fella was tailing them. Shot at 40 yards.
  17. We have a lot of bears around. I never called one in but their curiosity gets the best of them and they love checking out really stinky deer scrapes. I have seen this on two ocasions
