  1. WTF is wrong with you... Just kidding. Kinda. Hopefully it works out for you and that monster gives you another chance.
  2. Ok, I know it's warm out, but this guy is confused, lol.
  3. I believe 16 he can hunt on his own. No longer a youth hunter.
  4. Good lord.. I looked quick and thought it was something else in a toilet bowl. Did you brine/cure?
  5. Wife and I went out to b-fast. I should have hunted. Lots of bucks cruising through fields and a few actively chasing. Good luck to those out this morning.
  6. Sprinkled some doe in heat 15 yrs from my stand. Had a doe and her little guy with 1.5" horns come in. Mom wasn't impressed, but the little dude stuck his nose in the leaves and rooted around for a couple minutes. Definitely liked that smell,lol. Passed on a 4pt at 10yrds. At one point there 22 deer were in the field behind me.
  7. Used to enjoy stump shooting. Great way to get pretty good at judging yardage. I also got good at figuring out which stumps were ok to shoot. Too fresh and you could damage a arrow even with judo points.
  8. After a couple days cool down, I'm in the stand I missed the 8pt from. 71° and wind is all over the place. Did leaf cleanup all day, so hopefully I smell like a big leaf. Drove by yesterday little after 6, and there were 17 deer in the rye, and that's just in the part of the field I can see from the road. Lot more rye over the hill, and potentially a lot more deer.

    Ticks

    Loaded in 4U. Walked through a small brushy patch with a client the other day and had several crawling on me. Buddy who cuts up deer said they are loaded.
  10. Nothing close to my area either, but hopefully I'll get a 4U tag mailed to me like I did last yr.
  11. Good luck Jay. Enjoy the day with your brother. He's right beside you.
  12. I've used both, lithium definitely last longer, and supposedly, the cams function better on them, but I don't believe it. Currently have 2 tactacam on alkaline and 2 on lithium. Been out since September 5th. All show 100%, and are working fine.
  13. I used to when I was younger. Seemed the more pressure I put on myself, it became more difficult to kill a deer. Now, I enjoy every hunt. Missed a nice 8 last week, laughed when he sniffed the lighted knock. Had the same 8 behind me yesterday at 12yrds. Doe spotted me trying to turn. Didn't get pissed. I enjoyed the opportunity and the close encounter.
  14. Sorry to "lure" you back in. Lol. I didn't realize he wasn't running as a independent also.
  15. So your saying I vote for zeldin on the independent line, Zeldin doesn't get the vote? Or those votes don't count?
  16. I agree. But most of the "experienced" comments on here is that is adequate in experienced hands, yet most of those I know that use a 243 are far from experienced, and have no problems killing deer.
  17. How will voting for Zeldin on the independent line be a vote for the left?
  18. I keep hearing " in experienced shooters hands" Yet, most of those that I know using a .243 are youth hunters or women. Couple of the ladies are better shooters than most men, but most hunt 3-4 times a yr and probably shoot a few rounds before the season. Most of the youth shoot more often, but neither are experienced shooters, yet they kill deer just fine with the 243.
  19. Well that's obvious. I was responding to the post that the 243 will ruin the shoulder at close range if hit.
  20. And so will a 270, 06 ect, except it keeps going and ruins the opposite shoulder too. Either way you ruined a shoulder or two.
  21. My cams are popping all day. Most of the pics are does running by. Probably getting harassed. I know it's warm, but the bucks are getting ramped up, and I seen several bucks yesterday afternoon and it was mid 60's.
