We have harvested some really big body doe. Nothing close to #200 though.

Bowhunting this year? Been shooting the bow daily for a while now. Still the best at less than 40 with crossbow.

To see if it gets delivered. What do you think ? Throwing $ away?

Best year ever for 5 decades. Had to buy $600 worth of bee hives, frames, and foundation just to keep up. I make the bottom boards, inner covers, and telescoping covers for the top. I have two mediums left, for reserve.

Broke all of my record keeping for the last 50 years in 2026. Earliest swarm taken out of a tree April 28th. Six swarms captured in bushes by my bee yard April - May. The rains came in mid July, perfect to continue flower blossoming right through golden rod. Most had a deep super of honey made by August. Some have a medium super to be removed for extraction now. Great year here, for the honey bees.

I guess 82 views and know one has installed a windshield. I would help you out, but having owned one 4 wheeler that now has drive train issues. I would never purchase another.

I should say some past members stop by to say hello. A vast majority of them check out the site without logging in. Sad really, what we had here years ago. To think, just a few spoiled it for the rest. Some tried to blame it on the owner. He threw his hands up in discuss and pulled the plug, or did he?

Enjoyed the last sit of early doe with a couple close range shots on one year olds. We passed on"em, great encounter though. Mosquitos not near as bad this time. Colder weather have them backed way off. I'm a little more sold on those 270 ground blinds now. I picked up another for $55. The 360 dont have the black rear and complaints that animals can see movement in them under right light conditions. Got a great spot where I encountered this guy last season.

So heading out Sunday afternoon, for a combine scouting session and hunt, the mosquitoes were hungry for the attack. The thirteen inches of rain we got since mid July sure hatched out a great crop. The two seventy see through ground blind was the only choice. They don't pentrate through it. I don't like ground blinds, as a rule due to the restricted visibility in them. This one, I can tolerate. The corner door is a little tight getting through. I gotta say, it's built well though. I can't remember a fall hunting season with'em so bad. They come out of the mowed grass by the hundreds. Deer moved when it cooled down. Tails just a flinching.

Maybe an omen. Maybe not.

Alot of members left years ago. The few devoted ones stayed till the site went down last year. We had a great group here. Guess most don't want to risk having the site go down again. If it does, I'm not out anything. Chat away

Been out a few times. All smalls within range. Nice to be out a field again.

Welcome.back.

It keeps bouncing back. Hard to keep a great hunting forum down. It is what we make of it. Post away; if it goes down, so be it. Can still enjoy past post from yesteryear.

Made a couple rounds with the haybine around the field Friday. Tractor tires still come up wet in places. Hard to make dry hay with damp ground underneath. Looks like straw, but the second six inches coming up in it greens it. Very little nutritional value. Mow it down and let it rot back into the soil this year. Flipped over in July and got wet here very quickly
