  3. Sorry to hear the pups are busted up. I am sure they are not happy about it lol. Best wishes to their quick recovery and back to their and your great service to the hunters.
  4. We have taken some deer outa there. I have not been in there this year but hunted it a lot in the past off both sides of Potter. I have one spot I checked out last year late season that I need to get back into it is just not easy to get to. We have seen a couple big bucks in there over the years. Another member on here used to hunt it quite a bit and saw a lot. I have not seen him post in a bit.
  5. Yea it gets pheasant hunted hard! I live like 2 miles from there. Some nice deer in there also some goofy ass people lol! Good luck!
  6. He is pretty much the only one I watch. Enjoy his perspective and I can relate. I am definitely a meat hunter.
  7. Every Friday in November. And the last 2 days of southern muzzleloader. I hunt almost every day as it is before or after work. If I hit a rut day where there is reason to miss work I will.
  8. That is great. She should share that story with Nikon. They should send her a complimentary set!

  10. So got out of work and was in the outer hole stand by 4:15 for the last 2 hours. Was a big change in wind from yesterday and quiet. I jumped a good sized deer up top going in. About 40 minutes into the watch i hear and see one come in off to my right in the thick stuff about 40 yards out. I reposition and ding my boot off the side of the stand and she stops dead. After a bit she starts heading right at me. She is 8 yards tops just giving me the stare down for 10 minutes! That never fails to excite trying to stay dead still not even make eye contact for that long! I am not the best size judge on does all alone but I knew she was a doe and not huge but not a fawn. I also was pretty sure she was the same doe that slipped through my lane last week all alone. So for you sensitive types she has gone a week with no fawns!! lol Anyhows she finally turned and walked away and cut a small window broadside at 21 yards and i gave her a nice shot. She went 50 yards and out of site. I heard her crashing but another deer ran out I could just see so I did not see her fall. If I had I would have I would sat in stand till dark as it felt so good out. Nice double lung at 103 pounds. Already sharpened the Rage for the next victim!
  11. She came out and I accidentally clicked the stand with my boot. So she hangs up then decides to come right at me and check it out. After a 10 minute 8 yard stare down she walked away and gave me a 21 yard shot threw a small window. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. All set up for the night watch. Bumped a good sized deer up top on way in. Compared to yesterday’s wind it seems spookily quiet tonight!! Sampson where you at? I’m in Phoenix right now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Good plan!! I have a lot of in late out early days this time of year!!
  14. Ditto, the worst around here is guys target shooting and leaving whatever they are shooting at and all their shells and boxes and drinks...….
  15. Gotcha. Like I said I usually do to. I was just interested because some folks and some DEC seem to think you have to be unloaded after dark.
  16. To tell the truth I could not sit on stand for hours on end without a distraction. Before cellphones I would pack a paperback book to read. I would read a page, scan, read a page... I am sure it has made me miss some deer sneaking in but as it keeps me a lot stiller and in the woods longer it has also gained me some deer. I am a lot more alert during peak times or when the woods are wet and quiet. Those potato chip leaves days I can hear a deer long before I can see it! Also before cell phones I hunted the ADKS and bigger parcels so I would sit the peak am and pm but be still hunting in between. All my close spots now are small and I do not blow them out still hunting them.
  17. I'm making a management call and directing Phade to stop posting up deer porn! That shit is gonna get me fired! I look at that and leave work to go sit in stand all day every day instead of going to work! Then I realize all i have on cams is 1.5 year olds. Hangs head in shame...…...
  18. I am lost on that one Belo! If you find the decoder share please, lol.
