I'm in. Last hunt of the decade! Taking the bow for a walk and see what happens. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk -
Only hunted January shotgun once unsuccessfully about 10-12 years ago. DEC tend to limit 2 hunters to the various spots if I recall. I hunted with a buddy and had him still hunt while I went to the far end of the property and tried to nudge deer towards him. He missed on a doe. Now that the season is open on weekends, I hope to go out (standby) once in January, just to take the shotgun out for a change. Will probably still hunt, if I get out.

Just had a close encounter with a doe. I was just picking out a tree to climb,when I hear footsteps coming towards me. I still have my stand on my back and the release strapped to the bow. So I scrambled to get the release off but the velcro was too noisy. Had a brief face off at 20 yds before she figured out I was up to no good. She had a injury to the right rear leg and was walking with a limp, so I really wanted to put her down. Oh well. Time to climb that tree. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk -
Absolutely. Those are great spots! I haven't had your luck, but have seen a few nice ones either just out of range or with a twig or branch obstructing the arc of an arrow and had to pass. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

Thanks for sharing. Some nice ones made it through the season, so maybe next year they'll be around and even bigger. Cool. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

What Was Your Biggest Disappointment This Season?
cdbing replied to squirrelwhisperer's topic in Bow Hunting
I am disappointed in myself for missing with the rifle on the CO trip. I chalk it up to my range practice not being even close to replicating the actual hunting situations. Thankful for clean misses though....that would have been much, much worse. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk -

Saw 4 does/fawns today. Closest was about 40 yards. All seemed small to me. The smallest fawn was tiny. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk -

No deer today. If I go out tomorrow, it will be a different spot. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk -

Suburban hunting at its finest. Santa is making his rounds through the neighborhood on a fire engine, sirens blasting, etc. Not exactly the perfect setting, but you never know. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk -

I'm in a climber in 1c watching a rub line till sunset. Not sure that hunting a rub line makes much sense today, but giving it a shot anyway. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk -
Finally! A HNY WNY hunter is getting some recognition!

Have not hunted Louisiana. I bow hunted pigs in FL once and got a small one, perhaps 60 pounds or so. It was delicious. From what I understand, the smaller pigs are better tasting. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

If hunting public land, and leaving the stand and sticks, be prepared to discover them missing....... unfortunately. That has happened to me a couple times. As you have discovered, the hang on is as much effort as the climber (if not more) if you are going to pack the stand and sticks each time and not leave them set up. FWIW, generally my routine is to hang and hunt Oct-Nov, then use the climber late season. I can access better cover with the hang on. Come late season, when cover is scarce, I use the climber to get higher. Just my rationale. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk -
It depends....wife if I am going to be late, which is typically the case, since 95% of the time I arrow deer late in the day. Processor if close to closing time to see if he will stay open for me....particularly if the weather is warm. Next would be a text to long time my hunting buddy followed by a post to this forum. Only shot I wall hanger, so in that instance I called my son to share the moment and take photos. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

Congrats Crappie! When you get a chance post up some details of where you hit the deer. The wound in the photo looks decent shot placement. You obviously did the right thing by giving him time. Great buck! Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk -

Tough year for sure....but you are one tough cookie. May the solitude of the woods ease your burdens and clear your mind. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk -
X2 on the semi-auto in 20 gauge for recoil sensitivity. Can also try a limb saver slip on pad to cushion the stock, but it will increase the length of stock about 3/4", which may affect fit. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

In 1c hoping to see some deer. Getting to that time of day, when I've been seeing them. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk -

Wow....just Wow. So happy for those kids and parents who get so much enjoyment out of sharing their passion and traditions with kids. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
