    Cabela's Sold !!

    in General Chit Chat

    Posted

    I just hope they don't ruin Cabela's gear. I'm not a big fan of Bass Pro's hunting gear but I'm a big fan of Cabela's. As long as they don't start slapping Cabela's logo on their stuff I'm fine with it.

    What broadhead are you shooting?

    Wasp Drone 100gr.  Used montec G5 last year, perfect lung shot complete pass through and no blood trail. Made the switch back to wasp can't beat them. 




    I'm glad I wasn't the only one. I shot 2 deer with montec's and zero blood trail with perfect hits. Both deer went 60 yds or less but no blood is a no go for me.

    Does WMU Tags

    You can't exchange it after you get it. You have to apply for the areas you want so you won't be given an area you can't hunt unless you choose it. You can however get 2 additional DMP's signed over to you. So if someone is willing to give you or trade tags with you that is an option.

    First GOOD card pull all year

    in Trail Camera Pictures

    I have been running a lot of trail cams for the past 10-12 years and this is the best buck I've had to date. I hunt all over but only public land. I've had other great bucks but not a deer of this caliber. This summer has been especially slow with big buck sightings at an all time low for me but this guy just made up for it!  Any guesses on age/score? Enjoy!

    Field points or broadheads

    Field points. My broadheads will do the same but you'll need new arrows quick. I don't shoot at the same spot under 40yds generally, field points or BH's.

    What's for dinner tonight?

    How does squirrel taste?


    To me it tastes like a mix between like partridge and rabbit.Texture wise is very similar to chicken but a slightly "gamier" taste. It's good if it's cooked properly, but it will dry out and get tough easily. I've always had the best luck cooking it low and slow in liquid.

    One way or the other the meat has to get processed

    in Deer Processing

    Posted

    Like others have said, its not difficult just takes a little practice. I've never taken a deer to be processed, I actually enjoy it as part of the whole experience and i know exactly what I'm getting (my burger isn't a conglomerate of 10 other deer which may have been riding around in a truck for 4 days). Also I didn't see anyone mention it but cutting your steaks against/across the grain will make a big difference in how tough the meat is. All that I use is a Kershaw Pro fillet knife (I only use one knife for the whole deer) a vacuum sealer, grinder, a scale for weighing out my burger, and a jerky cutting board. Oh, and a 12 pack and a radio is essential also.
