Just Lucky

Been up since 430. 3rd cup of coffee. Gonna head out the door and up on the hill about 7. Hopefully find the buck quickly. No cell service once I leave the house so won't have any pics until later

Travel patterns I have killed by far more in the early morning. Evening I have more luck closer to food source, so really it comes down to your hunting land

Look at hospital, and insurance profits, then tell me why we have a healthcare issue. Lawsuits are another issue, but create more profit for insurance companies. Insurance premiums, and deductibles increase, and so don't the insurance companies profits. I heard once if you get sick you can pay the hospital 50 dollars a week and eventually the bill will be paid, but you can pay for insurance every week, but you will always owe them more.

I wear orange during gun. Foolish not to. I find those who are not wearing orange are usually up to no good

We have some coyotes but not much you can do. Have had to do this before and so far the coyotes haven't gotten my deer. More concerned about if he circles back into the thick brush where its 5 ft plus tall. Could take the better part of the day to find him when you get in that stuff. He can be dead 10 feet from you and can not see him.

Well tonight at last light shot my target buck I have been after all season. He went down on impact, then got up and went into the woods. He was in heavy golden rod brush when I shot . Tracked him into the woods, and stopped. Have good blood, but didn't want to push him into the neighbors.Gonna be a long night. My father and I are heading out at daylight in the am to get him.

I seen 4 different deer yesterday, different times, and all different spots. They were all alone and moving from one spot to another, not browsing. Had my 3 year old grandson with me for the last one so that was cool. The deer I seen were no longer in the fields but in the pines on hill sides. Maybe cause of the rain.

Heading out the door at 530. Been up since 3 deciding my plan of attack. Gonna head to a treestand in the back corner of my land. Seen a hunter last night in a sling hunting the property line. Went to their camp and met them last night. After talking with them and finding out how they hunt, gonna use their tactics to my advantage. Shot a doe yesterday morning, so we shall see what today brings.

Doe for team 4, I shot her opening morning with my grandfathers old 870.

Mask were a pretty good test run to see how people would comply, and turn on their friends and neighbors. Watch out when the hotline comes out for citizens not complying with gun laws.

Sorry to hear. From my experience with 2 different deer which were both all day track jobs, he headed back to where he was shot. I had it happen to me once in gun, and once in muzzle loader. Almost like a rabbit with a dog behind them, they run a circle.

Nope

The vaccine should be up to the individual, not mandated or with held. Simple, you choose

I will be hunting on the ground in a spot I have sat opening morning for the last 2 years. Deer seem to move through early so we will see. I brushed it in a few weeks ago to cover my movement

I hang my stuff outside a week before seasons start. Different clothes for different seasons. I don't use any sprays except sawyers in early bow because of ticks. Most my hunting is on the ground on different lands with different amount of pressure. Sometimes I sit, and sometimes I still hunt. When still hunting I pay more attention to my path for visibility then the wind to be honest. I try to stay inside the cover and stop by trees. When sitting I always kick the dirt and leaves around to stir up the natural smells before sitting whether in a stand or on the ground. I don't know if it helps but I think it does. And after I kill a deer I find having their scent on my clothes makes sightings more frequent.

Had a fork come through about 25 yards. First time in this stand this year. Was hoping some nuts, but none here neither

I didn't watch him. I was too busy picking belly button lint. I won't waste my time listening to him.

You really believe that? You really believe it was a fair election, without fraud? Or are you ok with the fraud as long as Trump is out

I never hear them although I am almost deaf, I see them first. I have smelled them though before seeing them.

I support Trump. What is sad is this election isn't gonna be decided by voters but rather multiple court rulings. Regardless of which side people support there is clear voter fraud being reported. Really sad. These are the things we learned in school that happened in other countries, not the USA. In the end all voters are getting screwed because we are witnessing the beginning of the end of our democracy.

I hope you feel that way after the court makes its decisions

I will switch over next weekend to using the crossbow. I like being able to use different weapons through deer season. They all bring their own challenges

I cut my deer up within the first few days. I try to skin while still warm because it's easier, let hang for a day so less slimy, then cut up. I find the longer it hangs the more meat I waste

Seen 2 doe, and a 6 this morning. 6 was about 25 yards and broadside. Not what I wanted this morning. Sat yesterday afternoon and had 9 doe and a fork come by between 4 and 6pm. Had clean shot on 2 does did not draw on either. First weekend with movement happening. I have been seeing deer in fields the last few weeks but none in the woods while hunting. Finally moving in the woods. All the leaves have fallen off the trees in my hunting area now, which in my opinion helps with visibility and movement. Seems when the leaves are falling the deer move out of the woods and more into the fields.

That sucks, hopefully the dealership can resolve it quickly for you
