check craigslist... i find nice bow packages on there for around that price with case and arrows. you can even find a mathews used around there. an older one tho...

VERY cool!! nice pic

cool find!

wow dropping them already, pretty neat!

nice to bad the season ended lol always seems to be the case...

The wife bought me a Hobart 140 amp mig welder, mask and cart for xmas, along with some clothes and a digital camera, for "hunting" lol so i dont take hers with me all the time in thw woods lol anyone else get anything good?

i got 15+ over by me in lake grove... got it pretty good. took the outlander out this morn with the plow to push some of this snow. im thinking of going out hunting tomorrow eveneing. not sure yet tho

LOL thats great!! happy birthday

anone go out after the snow storm?? i want to get out tomorrow but the access my spot i think its needs to be plowed, not sure if it is... might try tomorrow..

sheds already????

nice deer! how many acre peace of property do you have??

i would look at it like throwing in a nice lure in a pond that never saw one before, the fish would go nuts for it... deer like that could have been a dime a dozen, if hunting pressure was limited. None of us know how the hunting was back then tho... your talking 95 years ago. Hunting pressure and deer herd could have been totally different lol. i always enjoy looking at photos like this tho! Nice find! it is pretty neat to look at a pic like this and try to envision how hunting was way back when... cool pic!

lol ive seen this b4... i would love to look out the window and see that site haha

good deal john, that will work perfect for brewing the wart!

Same here... Wifes giving me a hard time about sneaking out and do a few hunts before the season is over. I did hunt alot this year so i cant argue tomuch but i do want to sneak out again and try to get something bigger then my 8 i got or atleast take a doe or 2. i dont need the meat, i have 3 deer in the freezer but i have tags left over so i want to see if i can donate something this year... good luck, keep me posted!

It's a shot where the bullet/slug is heading for the heart via the poop-chute.....lol. This guy made that shot almost perfect, and all the bleeding was internal, and almost no meat lost at all (That's a pretty rare result for that kind of shot). It's one of those shots that guys get tempted into when "jump-shooting" deer. Not much excuse for that kind of shot, but some guys just don't care. thats crazy Doc... cant believe the guy just left without any real tracking.

that thing is a beast! nice buck, wow...

Certainly right about that. My only foreseeable issue with it being a rifle shot, is if it were shot from a distance on the edge of open ground and the thick brush where it was found. I suppose it's possible the hunter was far enough and in the excitement was unable to locate the deer's point of impact to cut his tracks, or determine which track's were his (from other deer) somehow. I've seen it happen while shotgunning once in a blue moon, eventually the impact spot is found, but I suppose I could see that as an issue. I tend to have issue when bowhunting following a deer that's been hit and runs out of sight...I try to remember specific trees, etc. but when I get on the ground, it's much harder to find. You almost have to think a stud like that would certainly be followed up on because of its sheer size alone...I bet that poor guy cried in his beer that night. phade has a point... i agree

thats just sickening, really... i wonder the effort the hunter did/didnt put fourth in pursuing that stud. i dont want to pass judgment on someone especially with out REALLY knowing the truth behind the story but if what you say does happen to carry some truth culver, well then thats just a damn shame. i wouldnt step foot in the woods to hunt again until ive ran myself ragged trying to find that deer... hes a really nice buck, really nice....

On Tonight Right?

are you going back out again soon john?

i went out with the bow on sunday, saw 2 spike horns and blew about 10 deer out around my tree stand walking in. i did see about 3 very fresh rubs and 2-3 new scrapes, fresh made within the past 2 days or so. thought it was odd to see scrapes this time of year??

thats cool backstrapper! its always great to have the girls engage in the festivities of deer hunting! sounds like you guys had a good season

congrats to both of you!

wow he came out great! thats cool you got him back that fast, that guy must have been working OT lol
