2010 Deer Harvest Thread - Post your Pics and Success Stories!
First-light replied to WNYBuckHunter's topic in Deer Hunting
Great buck Sam, you really closed the deal! -
I have noticed that some of you guys hunt with your shotgun or rifle first day then switch to smokepole. Just your preference I guess. I new one guy that went back to the bow after 1st day.

I made some posts on this picture yesterday thinking it was a fake. I think to really make a fair judgement about the picture we really need to see some others. You can't tell by this picture. I've retouched over 25 years and to think you can make a call on a low res phone image is absurd! Steve show us some other pictures and I'll be a believer, I'm skeptical but if it's the real thing WOW what a monster.

Another nice one!

Thanks Faigame, Bigbuck we have the same layout! Bath is behind the kitchen. We heat with a gas stove which does a nice job but I have an electric heater in the bath when it gets real cold, below 20 with wind. All the plumbing is back there and I had the cold water line freeze one night. I sent you a message about the plumbing check it out.

Something you will always remember. I had help too and I never forget the ones at hunting season, they get first pick at stands. It also was a great way to meet people of the community and give them business. I just love the place and the town it is in!

If you look closer in Photoshop most of the left ear is missing, oops!

Here are some interior picts. Kitchen and floor was custom made by a local guy, Floor is ash and cabinets hickory. Ceiling and walls are shiplap which was very affordable. It took about 2 yrs to finish well worth the wait.

I disagree. Only the hunter knows!!!!!!!!

Nice video John, can't wait to get there! -
I've been retouching for 25 years and there are some questionable shadows, breaks in the antlers and like Steve said the lineup isn't correct on the right arm. The give away I see is the size of the right beam, the head isn't turned enough for that thing to be sticking out so far front.

Excellent Buck!!!
-
Sure, I was lucky only had to put in two poles. My neighbor who is the only full time resident on the road is very close. I can't see his place but where the lines come in it only took two poles to get me electric.
-
My place is on the grid. Had the lines put in underground. REA electric cost me about 55 bucks a month, can't beat it. We have a well at 170'. It was dream of mine to have a place like this and it finally came true. On the far side where you can't see there is a 14x20 shed that looks just like the cabin!

Antler Restrictions - What are your thoughts?
First-light replied to TheHunter's topic in Deer Hunting
Three00rum, Don't let one person sway you onto leaving. There is alot of good information on this board and yours is welcomed. You have to have some thicker skin with some of the members here, don't let it get to you. -
Enduro, Nice pictures the place is great. Is it 20x24? That is what my place is (here is a picture.) Did you do a loft? I have a loft above the kitchen and bedroom, best thing I ever did. Makes the inside much bigger. Good luck. I have interior picts of my place if you would like to see. Did the whole place in shiplap and had the floor and kitchen, bath cabinets custom made by a local guy.

I hit one in the blade years ago. Bent the arrow and had small amount of blood on the arrow. I did see the deer bed down, I gave the deer plenty of time when I came back he bolted running with no problems. In his bed was a small puddle of blood.
-
I've been in 10' stands and 20' stands. Motion and the breakup on you camo is keen. Don't look into the deers eyes either or you'll be busted.

How ya been?

Hey my neighbor has a full body mount of a piebald he got years ago, looks great. Something to consider.
