Arcade Hunter

No problem chef... I always have to try different things.

Yes but what could it hurt? Deer are curious

Yup, that's it... Identical. I have had doe come in to it before also. Don't remember where I bought it but it does show results

I did... What a dandy!

It lasted longer than my extinguisher... I've had a few come in to this call before but only early in the season it seems

Roar call? Primos...

No, this stuff...

In my blind... Have a little pee pee out at 20 yds... Super quiet and gonna grunt soon... Stay tuned.! Phone going away now for a while

Nice! One on the board! Congrats!

Checking in. Rain is done and the deer will be moving! Out on 8g for the evening sit. Good luck to all.

Fine looking puppies!

Happy birthday!

Good luck today everybody... I am trying to get out early today for an evening sit and off tomorrow...

This is a day where comfort food is necessary.. I made up some tuna casserole

That looks awesome, Jeremy

I'm thinking I like it!

Yup... I have Friday off and possible frost overnight into Saturday... They should be moving!

Hunted some state land in 8g... Got in there about 4 30 pm. I walked in on well groomed hiking trails and found a heavy run crossing the trail into the thickest brush. Walked in there for 80 or so yards untill I found a clearing where I could shoot from... Just as I approached the clearing I bumped what sounded like one deer. I never got a look at it. I went in another 20 or 30 yards to a second clearing and found apples trees with most of thier bounty laying on the ground and this is where I set up. I got myself ready and hit the grunt tube. Immediately I grab my phone on start posting on the live from the woods thread as I am excited to share my first sit of the 2019 season! About 2 minutes later, I raised my eyes up from the phone and there a big doe locking eyes with me at 15 yards head on. I clipped the release on and the doe high tails outta there. Damn! So here's my lessons learned tonight. 1. Keep off the phone especially when ground hunting. I never heard the doe come in to the grunt. 2. Expect a deer to come in to every grunt every time. 3. Go into the thickest cover via deer runs and set up somewhere where you can take a shot. There are deer bedding down in there. 4. Don't beat yourself up over a mistake especially if you learned something from it. In summary, I am thrilled to get out there in the woods with the bow and that I was able to have an encounter with a big doe! The rainstorm ended my hunt early but Friday and Saturday are looking great due to a cold front moving in and a possible frost overnight into Saturday morning. I'm pumped!

I'm off Friday so I think I'll do 8g in the morning and 9h for the afternoon... A lot of crops where I'm going Friday afternoon

It's starting to rain in Darien now... Gotta call it quits... A fun hunt and I learned to not mess with the phone..lol

My view... Doe was 15 yds facing me ... Definitely busted meppl l

I'm pissed but confident I wouldn't have had a shot... Probably the one I kicked on the way in

Just got to 8g... Bumped one on the way in... Big doe looking at me as I type. Signing off for a while

One hour and I am outta here and into the woods!

Out of likes... Nice deer young man!
