  1. I have a traditions pursuit and really like it. Can't beat it for the money.
  2. Thanks guys. I almost forgot a special thanks to Steve and Doe for leaving me one!
  3. Those are cool picts from the cam. Too bad you couldn't get a wack at'em. Maybe this week?
  4. Doe from this weekend. Notice the hat on the hunter!
  5. Just got back from camp it was a good weekend. Saturday my brother saw one deer but couldn't make it out, he only has a dmp tag. We brought his friend up and he spooked out a couple walking in at dark, that was it. Sunday morning we saw nothing. My neighbor came over and asked if we wanted to drive his swamp. We jumped on the idea. My brother and his friend were the standers and my neighbor and I pushed. It was only 5 minutes into the drive and here come three deer right at me. The first was real big, I took a bead on her neck at 50 yards and put her down. Then all hell broke loose. Two other deer go flying past me headed towards my brother. start hearing shots 5 in all. 4 big doe ran past him real fast and he unloaded on them but missed. Thinking he may of hit one he had to hold up on two other deer that stopped right under his stand. I give him credit, these two deer headed right back into the drivers and passed my neighbor who didn't shoot. Here is the picture of my doe, 110 lbs. She had one hell of a neck and ass end. Had her made into sweet maple sausage and Italian sausage. It was a nice weekend and my brothers friend saw a couple of doe Sunday afternoon but couldn't get a shot. BTW notice the hat????
  6. Zem, My brother is going to burn anise in the woods this weekend. I'll update you maybe send smoke signals on how it works!
  7. Headed up Friday night. My brother is bringing a friend. Hopefully we get a crack at a couple of does and the friend at a buck. My brother and I are tagged out for bucks. Saturday looks to be a real good day, good luck guys!
  8. I was in taxidermist years ago and he had a bunch of hides from yotes and the top was was so cool. The color was yellowish tan and had white in some areas. I look at him and say 'Man this is so soft and cool looking is it a wolf?" He replies "no Golden Retriever!" Yikes, he will do pets for people who want it done. Little creepy for me. The hide was going to an old lady so she could put it at the foot of her bed. Guess thats where the dog slept!
  9. Nice Eddie, keep up the good deeds and at least you know Santa will treat you well! Saturday morning is going to be a great day to hunt-just got this feeling-go get'em.
  10. Never tried them. My brother is going to burn anise in the woods this weekend maybe attract a bear, who knows????
  11. Click on the picture and it will zoom up, that is one hell of a deer wow!
  12. Sam, You can start a whole other thread on this subject. I can't believe how many stories I heard about using or claiming to use someone else's tag. So many ways around the system, when people do that I call it killing not hunting.
  13. Try to post some useful info and see where it goes, I sure as hell didn't know does were _ _ _ _ _ ! lol
  14. Recent genetic research has found that a doe can give birth to twin fawns from two different bucks. This phenomenon might explain why bucks will breed with a doe even after another buck has already gotten to her. From F/S website
  15. That sucks for you, completely ruined a nice thing your brother did. This summer I was looking for a food plot seed. Asked the guy in the hunting section and he looked at me leaned over and said in a low voice it's illegal and frowned upon in NYS. We don't sell it. I was like WTF and walked out. These people are a bit misinformed.
