  1. Doesn't look to good right through the weekend for snow. Got the makings of last year written all over again. Actually, December temps are running warmer this year then last, here. Makes for an interesting walk in. Evenings have been more successful lately.
  2. I can see Docs point. It looks bad to have these animals caught in a trap alive. But I can also see the other side, having a successful set come in and being proud of the harvest. This is a real tough one. Welcome to the real world. The world of the hidden unknowns. I am neutral, in this matter right now.I trapped 35 years ago, and just took a refresher trapping coarse this past August, so I do have a little background.
  3. Yes I agree. Their are at least 3 subject threads that could spin off this.
  4. Moderators; This is a harvest thread. Think it should be kept that way and move this discussion to another new thread. It is a very interesting topic to discuss.
  5. That's sure a recipe for cold feet. Have to get out the duct tape.
  6. Guess your left holding the bag, LOL.
  7. Like it or not, we've got 4 more years of this guy. 56 million people can't be wrong. Worst case of the flu; got it on election night.
  8. I recall a thread on here. I believe if you put dish soap on a paper towel, covering them with the soap, they will back out on the towel. Can't find the link, but maybe someone can.
  9. I miss the trust that people use to have. Where did that go? Seems like know one trust anyone today. I miss the simple life, the one without all the worries of tomorrow. I miss the happiness, people use to share. I miss the unity, this country use to have. I miss the value of the dollar. Just a few, folks.
  10. That top is one rare pic, for this late in the season, but also shows why. He's still got growing to do. Potential to add 20" more next year. Keep feeding the protein.
  11. Awesome evening sit for the first day of muzzle. Nice encounter with a couple small doe and 5 young at 30 yd... Had 1 young jump a ditch, landing in the water 20' up wind from where I was sitting. 3 others came out about 200 yd, up wind. They came out about 4:40 pm, would of passed anyways, but I enjoyed the viewing time till dark.It's kind of the laid back, fun time of the season and I wouldn't miss it for the world.
  12. Very nice indeed. Big fat does break u in right, LOL.
  13. I always use the phone. Stuck on the old way, I guess.
  14. That one looks similar to mine, but in Mossy Oak. Same basic design, but mine has a removable inner liner. Rest of the description is the same. Called a Gamehide made in Sri Lanka. Got it in Gallions for $60 reduced, after Christmas.
  15. Always amazing that those big ones can get through nearly 10 weeks of season, then show back up on the home turf. They must have some stories to tell the grand kids, LOL. If u muzzleload hunt, good luck. If not, hope to see u with the sheds.
  16. Want to get the buck to doe ratio back in check. For some reason, doe have come in. Think it's the food source. Also would like to get a first muzzleloader deer. Might as well do my part to raise the dmp success rate. A lot of gun shots during regular season, and a lot of misses too.
  17. Heading out for last shot gun sit. Muzzleloader tomorrow!
  18. We were also suffering from an energy crises in 77, which made it all the worst. Schools were closed for weeks with no fuel oil.The winds blew for weeks In January with 30" of snow on the ground. 20' snow drifts were very common.
  19. New food source this year, so it's ground sits, with no place for stands. We'll see how it goes. Looking for a first muzzleloader deer.
  20. I wouldn't be to upset if we had another winter like last. There were some tough winters, from the 60's on, but also remember winters like last when Lake Erie never froze over. The winter of 63 and 77 sticks in my mind the most. Those were 2 of the worst ones, when V plows and pay loaders were used to open fire routes, and get the milk off the farms.
  21. Some issues with the server? Had to go through the calender, to get into this post. Maybe they have soggy britches too, LOL. The fog was thick in spots. Had deer pop up at 7:18 am between the showers.They were bedded in the radish. Just chewed on my lip. Looks like a dark day.
