  1. Please do! Looking forward to hearing some stories and how it's going .good luck!
  2. Hunt #48. Point stand . 2-dark. Nothing seen nor heard. After first week of gun every year this spot proves to be a ghost town. But gave it a good shot. Last day of gun and the sun sets without a shot.
  3. Trying to summon up the intestinal fortitude to go back out for a last gun sit. Haven't seen a deer since 11/28.
  4. Last week of the contest! Looks like Grampy has a nice lead but can be caught. Reminder to get your pics in. I will take Arcade Hunter.
  5. Was awake most of the night with the wind and power going out so slept in and made breakfast. Pepperoni, spinach and pepper jack cheese scramble.
  6. Was out here about 4.5 hours. @farmer 52. Checked the grid site here and they never had an est for restoration here either but it just came back on. Hopefully the same for you.
  7. Also have the Mr buddy going. They sure are handy
  8. Power just went out here. Thought maybe we were gonna make it thru the night. Notsomuch.
  9. That bowtech is sweet. Was eyeing one myself. But holding out for now. Nice rig and good luck with the new endeavor.
  10. I have a couple and they work pretty well. Not the best night pics but have had them for a couple of years now.
  11. Was just watching news and they said there was a 74 mph wind gust at the buffalo airport
  12. Hunt #47. Point stand. 11:30-dark. Never saw or heard a thing. Not even one of those noises in the woods that makes you turn your head to look. For last day tomorrow prob go on other side of property in the pm for last gun sit.
  13. The new omicron variant might actually be a good thing. If it refects the Spanish flu at all, a lesser strain took over and that is what we see as the flu still today. It isnt going away and this new variant seems to be more contagious but less impact. If it knocks out the Delta and others as the dominant strain it actually could be better.
  14. Madison county supervisor basically told the state - go to hell we aren't doing it. Lol. https://www.google.com/amp/www.wktv.com/templates/AMP%3fcontentID=575896401
  15. Bow hunting is the absolute best time of year. You think you enjoy the gun season wait til next year. The best weather, prime rutting time, and deer that aren't as spooked. There is nothing like it. I actually don't look forward too much to gun season anymore. Opening weekend is great but the bow season is the best. Be sure to be more careful of wind direction and your scent. Also of your movement. You'll need them close of course. Don't get frustrated but enjoy the highs and lows and look at it as a learning experience. Be proficient as you can with the bow before season. Try out some 3D shoots, they are fun and great for practice. As others said have a pro shop help set you up with a bow esp the first one. Use a lifeline if your going to be up in tree. Don't think because of hunting shows your going to shoot a 12 pt. Any deer with a bow is an achievement. Have a plan to take care of a deer in warm weather. Read up on blood trailing. Your gonna love it. Good luck and ask questions here anytime . Lots of good info to be had. Oh and a range finder is a great tool for a bow Hunter. When in the stand mark some areas close by for 25 or 30 yards as a reference. And shoot within your ability.
