GREAT bow, i shoot the e32 right now.

Well just got a call from the sitter that the boys sick. I had time for a quick picture.big male, by far the biggest I’ve ever shot.id bet 35-40 lbs. browning ab3 243 for reference. He was about 50 yards behind a yearling, she’s safe today.

Correct

Coyote just got a bullet chasing a deer past me

if they have the feed, they will grow!

range finder

shoe goo is what i use for my waders and boots, excellent.

Sucks, my deputy friend called me to pick up another one he had to shoot today. Apparently a hunter shot through both front legs just above he knee and never followed up to find the deer, the land owner was pissed and was happy that I would be using all the meat. Either was shot on the property over, or trespassing on his property. I’m not going to post photos yet because I told him it’s possible the person still may follow up with him tommorow and I’d be happy to give him the deer even though it has a roadkill tag now. It’s a nice non typical 3.5 year old.

Its about the time i go back behind my house and bow hunt, all the deer should be there now. The moon wont help the rest of the season also. Going to have to hunt urban areas or put some boot son the ground and find them.

Great stories and dedication, for the record i have had a deer shot with a .308 nod bleed a single drop externally. She only went 30 yards but there was fat plugging both sides on a double lung shot at 30 yards.

Going to pa camp Friday even though i'm tagged out, if all the blinds are not full ill be on coyote and spotter duty. Sunday ill be back at it in NY maybe take a doe with my last DMP, then have the wife transfer me hers since i think shes done.

i only do 3-4 person "drives" with people i know well. more or less controlled still hunting with sitters on the end.

backstrap is a loin not tenderloin. still looks good!

Most camo clothing is designed to be quiet and warm. Only real reason i wear my camo stuff all the time. I do have a red flannel i wear during gun also

Best day, either shooting my 10 point in PA or the day i had 5 bucks chasing the same doe all over and i drew on a 10 point twice with no shot. Worst day, would have to be bow opener when i brisket shot a doe. But i've been lucky enough to take 5 deer since then with perfect shots.

No

Muck artic pro, 3 years on mine and i wear them doing everything in the winter, going to get a new pair after this winter.

looks good! i boil and then clean, use a peroxide and baking soda paste, wrap in tin foil and put by the stove. just finished my 6

Going fishing today, good luck folks!

Strange gun season, we pushed 60 and 40 acres areas that are usually full of deer today (DMFA near Ithaca) and didn’t even see a tail. I’ve seen 2 deer during gun. 72 in bow. Deer are getting smarter!

Pa where I was hunting they piss right out the shadow blind windows and get multiple good deer every year.

I never used to till last year, peed off my stand and 5 minutes later a doe came from down Wind and started sniffing it. I’ve done the same this year and saw 72 deer this bow season, it has no negative effect and deer are naturally curios animals.

Going to dmfa to hunt tomorrow, anything without antlers is in danger.

I’d shoot that deer! Congrats

Pretty darn cool
