I have had deer bed near me . Bed for an hour or so get up eat a little bed back down . 40 minutes to an hour . They did this over a period of about 4 hours never moved more than 50 yards . Most nerve racking thing to worry about scent and movement with deer that close for so long . Kept waiting for them to blow out of there on a wind change . Was hoping a big buck would come in . Have an 8 pt on camera for a couple hours bedded right in front of the camera. Same thing . Bed for a while.. feed for a bit bed again . 41 minutes was the longest he layed down but he didn't go far when he got up .

Living in the country I'm surprised I haven't seen any thing but mice . I do keep my yard really clean and I remove all garden waste and drop apples . My mother inlaw has a horse barn 400 yards away . In the last 34 years we have only ever had one rat at the barn . I dispatched it with a 22 . We ran traps for a few months but all we got was mice . I have a dairy farm up the road he has a lot of rats and no cats . He checks traps 2 times a day . I refuse to buy straw from him because his wheat straw stinks of rat piss.

Merry Christmas!!

Bucknaked from Duluth are awsome to .

Its hot in a glass factory .. I wear the armachillos to work all summer long ...laugh if you like but they keep the boys comfortable.

Dont know what your definition is but I refer to the endless bickering some people subject the rest of us too.

Car is roomy inside once your in . Just the act of getting in and out .

Merry Christmas all .

Lol its ok .. as expected. Deer season is over for most have to have something to complain about. Shack nasties will start in earnest and it will get ugly again .

I'm 6'2" and I can't get in the wifes escape without hitting my head or feeling like I'm folding my self in half to get in . And I really hate that frigging hatch in the back . Cut my head 2 times already and broke a pair of glasses.

I traded ram in on ford it was 16 years old 160k. Wouldn't pass inspection as it had rusted through in the frame . Loved that truck got chitty milage tons of power . Drove through anything . That was my replacement truck new for the lemon Diamond Chrysler bought back . First truck had trans problem they couldn't get figured out . Every time the dealer worked on it it got worse . Started out with down shifting climbing hills . By the time they were done it wouldn't shift out of drive . I had the sales manager and the service manager in the truck . Drove down a dead end road . Couldn't back up had to turn around in a cornfield . Parked it at the front doors and shut it off . They had to deal with me in front of all the customers.. had to get mechanics out there to move it as it wouldn't start in drive. Even up trade on a better equipped 2 years newer. Dealer wasn't happy when he found out I had already been in touch with arbitrator.

Welcome to the nut house .

Locked in by April 1st for me . Then after that it's first come first served by seniority. I lock in my annual pig hunt in October. Then first week of gun .. and Christmas week . And then bug week for fishing the Beaverkill .

Oh I get that ... she doesn't. She believes every thing Brandon , Faucie and Lester says is the gospel . " CHANGE THE CHANNEL DELORES !!!!!! LOL

I kind of think there is a better way of thinning the deer heard rather than adding another week to hunt . Full inclusion for crossbows . A progressive season ... 2 weeks of bow then its 2 weeks of crossbow. Then a 2 week muzzloader... since everyone knows crossbows are crossguns you can use a crossbow through the muzzleloader season .. as you have to purchase a muzzloader tag to hunt with a crossbow . Then 2 weeks rifle. Then a true primitive season long bow no sights.. Flint napped broadbheads cedar arrows musket patched round ball.

Hope you feel better. Our Christmas get together was canceled by MIL. As wifes nephew and in-law refuse to get the shot . MIL says we shouldn't have a party if everyone doesn't feel safe . Yet she won't tell them to stay home because they won't get the shot ... go figure . I keep telling her to change the TV channel from msnbc.. she won't listen . Wife has to work Christmas day ... no party at MIL.. kids are all going to there inlaws... looks like I'm going fishing .

BIL said they are running 9 to 10 weeks . But Ford says March.

Wish that was it but I did that ... still didn't warm up . Some just seem to work better than others . Shouldn't have bought them early in the season . They were probably left overs from last year

And I doubt they will ever go back down .

Got to love a good Ford,Chevy ,Dodge bashing thread . Shame this didn't start out as that .. perhaps someone should start one .

I have been meaning to plan a trip up that way fly fishing . This whole covid chitshow needs to get over.
