Cabin Fever

SUCKER!!!

Thanks. He'll have ML for next year, even if I have to buy him one myself! LOL He's a great kid, always has been. He's the only one that I know that hunts even MORE than I do!! I rolled the dice and got him a lifetime hunting and bowhunting license when he was 2 years old for $375. At 26, he's gotten my money's worth already!! Good luck to you and Samantha!!

Bittersweet end to my season. After my hunt this morning, I met up with my son for breakfast. Since last fall, he's been wanting to get a ML, but was saving every nickel for his wedding this past Sept and didn't do it. He told me he was bummed as he wasn't ready for his season to end yet and wished he had gotten a ML. I felt bad and told him I was getting burned out anyways, so to just get a ML license today, and he could hunt with mine for the rest of the season. So, I'm officially pulling the plug on my season after 72 hunts. Oh well. I was looking forward to the holiday hunt this year, since I'm on vacation now until Jan. 3rd myself! UGH! YES, I could still take out my bow, but I don't have a chance in hell of seeing a buck within bow range at this point. In addition, I checked 11 cams today and there were NO pics with daylight activity and only 1 scrubby little buck. Oh well... Where he's hunting, he'll have a better chance at putting meat in the freezer anyways. Good luck everyone!

Headed out for a quick hunt this morning. Not holding my breath, that's for sure!

Wow! The weatherman says a 36 degree temperature drop between today and Sunday!

NOW ya tell me!! LOL Won't be shooting does if I do see any. Sounds like bucks are even tougher to come by for everyone during ML season. Glad I don't have high any expectations, so I won't be disappointed.

Just a pile of squirrels so far. I probably should have listened to that voice in my head this morning that kept telling me to stay in bed! LOL Regardless of seeing deer, I’m always hopeful for the opportunity to blast a coyote, but even they’ve been laying low for the past few weeks, at least during daylight hours.

55 degrees at 7am Dec. 16th! Never thought I would hear frogs croaking in the swamp in mid-Dec! LOL Crazy!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Having some coffee before heading out. Thinking back, I've only killed one buck ever during ML season! Not feeling very hopeful, but gotta try...

Thought about this tonight, as I stomped back to my stand after dark, to retrieve the ramrod that I left behind!! Oh boy....

Just a red fox tonight. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looks like the deer think it’s a good evening to sleep in… Get up and move already!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Had to tap out of my first stand pick. Ever so slight breeze, but it just wasn’t playing nice! Haven’t even seen a squirrel yet! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Congrats! That's a great feeling!!

Congrats Fletch!! No wonder there's no deer around here! Fletch shoots them all!

I have one of those sons too!! LOL But, I wouldn't trade him for anything!

Just squirrels! I need to leave in a few min. I don’t know if the deer are just keeping me in suspense or if they’re going to stand me up!? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Beauty of a morning! Cold and still! Just need ONE more thing to make it a perfect morning!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nothing moving in 8H! Where have I heard that before........... EDIT: The plane TF saw just passed by here.

Finishing up a cup of coffee before heading out. I have a meeting at 11:00 that I need to prepare for, so I should only hunt until 9:00. ("Should" being the key word here... )

Pretty pathetic when you see more meteor showers in one night, than I do deer all season!

There's another topic out there somewhere about this issue. Been having the same issue for a very long time using Tapatalk. When I click on Messages, it says I have no messages, even though I got a notification that I had one. I have to choose Notifications in the very bottom right, then select the notification that I got saying I have a PM to view it. I sent the HuntingNY Admin a message months ago asking him if there was anything he could do about this, but never heard anything back.

The solid colors were ~$20, but the camo ones cost more. My stock is camo, so I just wanted a camo sling too. Besides, it's from Santa!

Got many coyotes around there Rob? Might want to throw some predator hunting into the mix. Might help the deer population.

Is that drawing on the table a map to your secret hunting spot?
