  1. Quite a pickle! As a landowner/deer hunter, there are few things I hate more than trespassers and/or poacher and I have had similar situations over the past 21 years. The way it looks to me is this guy just screwed you over not only by trespassing and shooting that buck, but also by ending your season by making you take a deer you had already decided did not meet the standards you set for yourself. To make matters worse is every time you look at that rack you will no doubt think about it all over again.
  2. Did you weigh the deer? If you did let me guess the weight........about 147# dressed out.
  3. hb270deermanager.............jokes on you buddy.............me and my girl knew you were there the whole time. LOL!
  4. Looks like a 3 1/2 year old. And for the record I think I'll swap my 180 acres for your 8. LOL! I can't imagine that kind of activity for two hunters on eight acres. What is the area around it like? Nice buck......congrats!
  5. i forgot my grunt tube one day so i typed in youtube and found a "small buck grunting" and chasing that was caught on a trail cam. it was short clip but the real thing and i cracked up when a small doe heard it and came sneaking in right under my stand. i thought it was way to quiet but she sure as heck heard it!
  6. Sunday report.......total shots heard for entire day less than a dozen, all far off. Three shots were one after another at .....hold your boots for this...........6AM. Next shots at 6:30 and the rest scattered throughout the day. At 8 AM I watched 3 does being followed by a buck with just one antler, a fork horn. They all walked..........no shots from me today and none fired on my property. Deadsville...........in Sangerfield. LOL!
  7. Not that it could have been any less worse if he were older, but my goodness an 18 year old kid. How sad! My heart and condolences go out to the family.
  8. Four does and one little spike. All walked. No shots fired on my property and only one shot heard all day that was close by on one of my neighbor's. I agree, this was the absolute quietest I can remember in our southern Oneida county town . Lets see what tomorrow brings.
  9. My opinion cannot beat 30-06 for all around everything rifle. With the selection of loads, everything from woodchucks to you name it.
  10. That's how they get to be the big boys, by not doing things we think are normal.Thus, they keep from getting put in the freezer.
  11. Talk about getting caught with your pants down. LOL! Good thing you didn't try to knock the wrong arrow. LOL! Congrats on the buck.
  12. It's a beautiful picture. Looks like an oil painting.
  13. And of the two of those choices, "shot" is the most plausible. Someone looking to fill a DMP seems more reasonable than a car small enough to drive through the legs of a deer and severing off one leg. LOL! I can't imagine a deer getting hit by something as big as a car, and hard enough to knock half it's leg off, without smashing it's body as well. Yup........shot off.
  14. I use my 12 gauge/improved cylinder/6 shot on cottontails and 12 gauge/modified/5 shot on hare.
  15. I'll be hunting everyday from November 19th through December 4th. Worked like a dog all year to pull this off and can't wait! Next week I'll get to bow hunt for the first couple hours every morning now that the clocks are going to get set back. That is if I can drag my old tired bones out of bed in the morning. LOL
  16. They have been rough on my beagles a couple of times over the years. Hey...just gut them and toss the whole thing onto a BBQ grill and you will have a party serving size of already skewered meats. LOL!
  17. Got me thinking of my youth......yummmmm.....cheese curd from the Colosse cheese factory. Too bad people have turned into such jerks!
  18. Flat tires? Yikes! That's all state land isn't it? There would be holy hell to pay if some knucklehead pulled that stunt on me while I was hunting. Perhaps DEC should cruise through there more.
