In now for a short sit until dark. No tree for me this time. Staying in the brushy island pop up to keep out of the wind. Good luck all!

In and sitting. Feels deery! Bumped 4 or 5 that were together in my lower field on my way in but it’s ok, because the cool air feels good on my lungs. Still fighting week two of a really bad cold that turned into a lung infection. Good luck to those out there this morning!

Dead deer. If he just stayed there lifting and lowering his head instead of bolting when you guys found him. looking at the lower picture he either had stood up and layer down again in same bed or is bleeding out both sides. if you snuck back out quietly after bumping him, I’ll bet you find him dead and n his next bed within 100 yards or so. Again, if you did not push him last night. Good luck. Looks like you will get him to me.

Took a different route to work this morning and glad I did. I got a chance to watch a really nice 3.5 to 4.5 year old 8 point trailing a doe. He was hot behind her but stopped in the middle of a cornfield not 100 yards from my car, lifted his head, and stood there pretty as a picture. A great way to start the day!

Just flicked a frigging tick off my hand. Man I hate those things! With the weather this warm, just ain’t feeling it. May pul the plug early, do a thorough tick check, and then work on my box blind project.

In. Warm Breezy

I'm with you guys. Sick as a dog and surprised it is not the Vid! Trying to ignore it by keeping going and working on my first elevated box blind. It's tough though with non stop running nose , watery eyes and chills. Still, it's better than last year; when the day before crossbow opener and I was on here getting advice on my new crossbow, in the middle of the night I had an ulcer rupture that put me in the hospital for emergency surgery and almost killed me. I"ll take this flu/cold or whatever it is over that! PS...From that experience, I have a new awareness of how awful a death it must be for a gut shot deer.

I believe it is likely true. So, now keep an eye on the railway system to see if they threaten to strike, bringing further fear and misery to our people.

Excellent looking stand G-Man. I'm trying to build my first one now for me and my 6year old grandson, and can use some information. If I can ask. Where did you find the brackets for the legs? Thank you!

Checking to see if I can still post here. Good luck to those out hunting today!

Pizza in Alaska is hit and miss where I lived for 5 years. I still have my home there and plan to return, hopefully in the not to distant future. But, it won't be for the pizza! : )

Nazis? It wouldn't be the first person, or first time this kind of language got thrown around on this site. Just a month ago I came under attack and had a member here refer to me in such a manner. No matter what topic, civility is a thing of the past on this site. And, the so called "rules" pertaining to not attacking other members is a farce. As a result, I watch from the side lines from time to time, but rarely if ever chime in on anything here anymore.

Can't wait for Mr. Lindell to finally have an opportunity to present in court, everything and anything he has to finally prove his case or not. For the sake of our country, I think we all should want to know the truth. I for one will be surprised if they ever really actually open this door and give him, or anyone else the chance in a legal setting. Why would anyone risk their reputation, their fortune, and their life's work, if they were not convinced they were on the correct side of the issue and able to prove it? And, what happens if he proves he is right?

What does a tractor like that go for these days? My 2120 Ford has served me well for many years, but I may be looking soon myself to finally add something new to the homestead.

I wish they would come take a few off my hill! We are over run with coyotes here. PS. I sent you a couple PM's several weeks back. They show not read. Did you get them? thx

You crossed a big line here! I see you can now edit your posts based on the paragraph you added to the weird flex comment. I was asked to share my "point", and I did. I shared my perspective on how awful war is, at a time when it is again crossing our television screens. It had nothing to do with any "flex" or whatever the hell that is supposed to be. So for that you call me a Nazi? Pretty twisted! That was defamatory, and if you had a shred of class or decency would apologize for such a comment. I don't recall ever treating anyone here or anywhere else in such a manner. People who are "trying to understand" don't typically go on the attack in such an extreme and disgusting manner. That does not open communication and/or understanding, rather it shuts and/or shouts it down. This is precisely what bothers me about this site anymore. There are a few here who shout down, name call, bully at every turn, and have no boundaries to how far they will sink. I thought I was pretty honest about why I think people are entitled to their opinions, but believe non citizens opinions should not carry the same weight when it comes to the goings on in our country as the commitment and stakes for them is much lower.

Thank you. Have a nice day!

What are you dense? Or just antagonistic? My point was as I stated twice now. I wanted to know who here are not American citizens. I suppose in response to your "my life is here" comment, I would add there is a hell of a big difference between living someplace versus swearing one's life and allegiance to a country, in my humble American opinion. I grew up in a family proud to be American, and at a time when I put my hand over my heart as I faced the flag every morning in school while repeating the "Pledge of Allegiance" then singing "My Country, Tis of Thee", while at the same time we were being taught to crawl under our desks or hunker down to "protect" us in case of nuclear attack. My childhood was watching nightly news every night of the scenes of Viet Nam, while wondering and worrying about my family members fighting there. And, the older boys in my neighborhood I played ball with in the streets sometimes just months earlier, now also over there, and if they were ever going to make it home. I remember us kids lining up along the street and cheering and waving to the long convoys of soldiers in their Army vehicles as they drove past. I remember worrying if it would ever end; and then the feeling I experienced when the churches in our city rang their bells when it was announced the war was over and I saw those close to me with tears in there eyes probably from a mixture of sadness and relief. Non citizens may have an interest and opinions on our political situation, but they really have no dog in the fight. As far a I'm concerned, unless and until they have taken a sworn oath to this country, their comments should be taken with grain of salt . And to take it yet one more step further; to be lectured, verbally attacked, or brow beaten by bloviating non Americans who think they have the same say, rights and privileges here as citizens, simply because they choose to live here, respectfully, they can go pound salt. Care to attack some more? Peace!

I want to know who's hand was up Walter's a$$ making him talk.

Wow...really nice design. I like the idea of the round, adjustable braces too. If you will allow me one more question: what is the string and pulleys about?

Oh...cool! Thanks for pointing the out because I missed it. My freaking eyes are not what they used to be, for sure.

My heart felt prayers are with the people of Ukraine; but make no mistake, I am and will always be proudly, patriotically, and unapologetically American. My question was honest and sincere. Who are the non Americans with all the political opinions here?

Great idea! Please share with me how you jack it up? I can't tell from the pic thx!

Please remind me again. Who are the non American citizens on this site?

Stop taking the bait folks. Start ignoring the Trolls on this site.
