2 points for a lot of people in Rob’s game - Whoo Hoo !!! And lots of good eats for Larry!

@johnplav I’ve had the La Crema Pinot several times, good choice with the turkey dinner! We just had the Josh Cab Sav on Sunday and it was quite tasty. Will be great with your apps before dinner! All good choices!

I’m beginning to think the only way I kill a deer is if I poach it! KIDDING OF COURSE

Nothing seen in a 2 hour sit. I started walking home at sunset time hoping to catch one near the pond. Stood inside some thick brush for 15 minutes till legal time and saw nothing. Walk another 50 yards and 6 doe are at the top of the hill. They watched me for a couple of minutes and then blew and took off. One fo them stayed behind but eventually moved off. Not only am I not see deer during legal time, I’m blowing them out on my way back in the dark. Not good, Not good at all…… I’m burning up all my spots. Going to hunt a little in the AM, maybe a still hunt, I think the wind will be right for it. Then turkey and back at it Friday. This just in.....he is walking over my path home.

Looks like the local diner. And delicious

Amazing….perfectly done!

He going to ruin the green on hole 17….

I was in this spot from 3:30 until 5:15pm. This SOB is winning! Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Well, no sign of Crossover by me personally, but he is still around.....just gotta get lucky! ANDHUNT MORE!

Congrats on your retirement! It sounds like you know how to do it. You can always donate another deer to a food pantry! So I would break out the XC skis and be ready.

Hi @Chef, welcome home!

I'm burning one on you anyways!

Seeing these pictures makes me glad that we cut up our own deer.

FOR SURE!!! Osso Bucco is usually made with the shanks, you should have 4 good ones per deer and it is easier to cut the bone and tie the meat before freezing. The front shoulder is pretty difficult to trim for any decent sized roasts and it is is a lot of work even to get grind out of it. But it is very delicious when braised on an over or crock pot. All the meat will just fall off the bone when done and you can go in a lot of directions after that. One of our favorites is Barbacoa. Incredible Tacos, burritos, quesadillas, etc. I have done a bone in back leg roast, but getting large cuts off the back end is pretty easy, so I usually don't leave that part bone in. A couple of weeks ago, we cooked a whole bone in neck roast and made "Polish Pot Roast". My wife raved about it. She is a real meat and potatoes girl. One thing I have not played with is the rib meat, but I have seen several recipes that utilize the ribs and rib bone. Ala beef short rib. If you are keeping whole cuts you should buy one cookbook that is a literally a bible of wild game meat: Hank Shaw's Buck, Buck, Moose. Or at least subscribe to his newsletter.

My pick is Lawdaz too. Hopefully he waits until tomorrow to get his gun buck and not this afternoon Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

My buddy was hunting nearby and he shot a small buck 15 minutes after legal time. So it was not a completely terrible day! With that early shot I thought there would be a lot of action. An old friend of mine used to say “Early ripe, early rotten”. Held true today!

Sounds like my day Rob. But I know you will be out there again tomorrow!

And @Robhuntandfish??
