Could it be done? Yes. Should it be done depends on your ability to live with the end result which could be less than desireable. There seems to be a lot of hunters who can live with the less than desireable result as there are a lot of dead deer laying around the woods after the season. I for one would not shoot beyond 30 yrds as the further out you get the more uncontrolable the situation becomes. Better to hone your woodsman skills and get the xtra 20 yrds you need to make an ethical shot. But even a blind squill finds a nut once in a while though!

Not sure what state you are living in, maybe the state of denile, but my taxes have gone up every yr for the last 10 yrs since I bought my house. Gas prices are astronomical which makes food prices astronomical which makes everything astronomical. Bammer hasnt done sh-- about it either except to say get use to it and inflate your tire's? Seriously? You libtard I didnt think of that !! The eco wako libbers wont be happy till were all riding horses or walking to work. Progressive party my a-- maybe regressive party, regress back to the 1800's, what a bunch of bulls---. You Libs can take your " progressive agenda" and shove it!!!!! Your all in denile like your little socialist counter part down south, Chavez, and you wont be happy till we are all wallowing in filth and poverty. And, oh yeah o Bammer

I can hear it now. Officer them darn deer ate my entire 3 acre brassica food plot in one night. Can I have 10 doe permits please. Reply from officer

This is true. I never would have thought anything of it as it was found dead. But if the DEC finds you in possesion of the rack during season without a tag on it they might think you poached it.

Awe heck just flint nap a few out of chert and go to it!!! It really comes down to what you are comfortable with,what shoots great, not well, but great out of your bow, and what gives you the most confidence. Confidence in your set up is 90% of the battle, the other 10% being getting something in front of you to shoot!! Good luck with whatever you choose.

Man I still cant beleive the size of that sucker!! I was watching one about 6 yrs ago like him. I could put 4 fingers in his track. He was always laid up in some brush about 100 yrds off a road. I would stop in the morning and glass the brush and 90% of the time he was there. This was only about 1/2 mile from my house and on my cousins property so I knew I could hunt him. One day he wasnt there so I snuck in on a rainy day and hung a stand about 40 yrds from where he liked to lay in hopes of sneaking in during the dark and shooting him when he came back from feeding in the morning. About a week before bow started I decided to take a walk for some exercise and brought the binos to see if he was around. I got to about where he was and was greeted with a stench I know to well. There laying over the bank of the road with his head cut off was my buck. Looked like someone blasted him with a car as his leggs were all broken up. Never found out who ran him over. Sucks, but it happens.

I would really like to see someone climb in a camera.

Its all the sugar from thr brassicas getting frosted.

Prolly a Democrat. You didnt earn that anyhow! Its now a communal cam. Trust me you dont want it back to see what they are doing with it.

I like to use the portable ground blind, A ghillie suite. This is the one I use from Cabelas. I inter weev grass and brush into the mesh to make it blend in better.

Prolly died from clogged arterys from being over weight!!!!

Man I dont even see the gash so it couldnt have been bad enough to kill him. Unless it was deep and hit an artery. Was there any visible blood around? Broken bones? Squishy sound when you moved him?

I had a guy the other day telling me he saw a helocopter literally unloading them out of cages into stateland in NY!! I was like wow, really, that is terrible. In the words of the great Bugs Bunny " What a Marooooon!!!!

Holy crap that is a massive buck!!!! That really sucks!!!! Is it one that you had on camera?

Didnt get out tonight like I wanted to, but did a quick scout behind my house and found a dead doe with a slug through the guts. Looks like from yesterday.

Found a dead doe today while out on a walk, Slug through the guts. Looks like she was shot yesterday.

Few, you made my heart stop when you said Broome county and I saw the buck. Looks like one that im after. Glade its not!!! Nice deer !!

I have only shot 5 deer out of a tree stand. The rest were standing behind a tree or walking throught the woods with a bow or a gun. Just something I like being on the ground with them one on one.

7s never heard one shot. Not even a pistol or a shotgun or nothing. I was quite suprised.

Cheap stand and 30 ft up a tree are always a bad combo.IMO, Glad to see your ok!!

So as I was sitting around Saturday afternoon pondering where to hunt that evening. I recalled a nice strip of oaks on the edge of a revine over on some stateland. I had scouted it twice last yr but with no Acorns I never hunted it. I noticed while I was there the last time that the wind was a little squirrly since it was at the base of a hill in a valley between two mountains. It was hard to get a fix on what direction the wind needed to be to hunt it. Well with the acorns dropping like crazy I decided to take the long walk back and don the gillie suite and hunt off the ground with my back to the ravine. So I finally get there about 6pm find the trail which was not easy with all the leaves set up with the wind in my face and settle into some brush and sit and wait. Well I was there 15 min and im startledby a grunt to my right. I check the wind because I was not even contemplating that they would come right up out of the revine behind me!!!! Suddenlly there are deer all over the place running around in cicrles to my right. I make out two small bucks a spike and another one I can just see antler but cant really tell what it is. Plus a doe and two fawns. Well the bucks harrass the doe for a while and thrash some brush off to my right about 40 yrds out, The doe heads down the trail with her fawns behind her. I draw back as they are about to hit an opening and the spike rushes them and they stop right in the opening but the doe is in the middle and a fawn on either side of her covering her vitals, of coarse why not. Well they walk out of the shooting lane and stop. They look at something to there right and I let down the bow. Well then here comes the spike on my side of the trail and he stops 10 yrds in front of me. Watching the doe. Then came the ever so slight change of wind. The whole time its blowing in my face then bang one gust comes from behind and these deer looked like someone slammed them with a baseball bat. There heads wipped right in my direction and I new it was over. They couldnt see me but they new I was there. And they melted into the undergrowth like ghosts. Well I didnt get the shot but it was alot of fun to have deer that close to you on the ground. The interesting thing about this spot is I found it in the winter time while out walking about. I noticed the funnel between the hill and the ravine the ton of rubs and tracks and trails and said to my self I will definetly be back to this spot come hunting season and it turned out to be a good spot. Ill give it a few weeks and maybe go back.

Ebola virus! If you start running a fever and bleeding from you nose and eyes I would go to the doctors quick.

Speaking of hot air, anyone notice Gore is looking more and more like the michelin man. I think he is being greedy and needs to redistribute some of his food to the poor! And where did this turd pop up from. He hasnt been in the news in yrs for anything news worthy that isnt some eco wack job news. And all the sudden bammer is getting his as- handed to him all the libtards pop out of the wood work and start making excuses for him. I guess they can see their meal ticket evaporating before their eye's. Wont be long and these hipocrites will be on the unemployement line also, I hope!!

Rut didnt wear him down any!! What a haus of a buck!!! good luck!

I use the realtree bow hanger. It works pretty well and easy to unscrew from the tree.
