WNY Bowhunter Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 Went back to the farm today to try to find a spot to hang a stand where all the action was yest. evening and noticed fresh paw marks in the cam scrape on the way in. I pulled the card and found that Dagger had visited again overnight. He's looking pretty studly and appears to be teasing me now. What I don't like is that he's hanging out next to the road a lot. I sure don't want him to end up in the back of a truck next weekend with a rifle-hole through him and his retinas burned out by a spotlight...

WNY Bowhunter Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 (edited) MAN He is a corker!!! That's funny. My buddy who runs the bowshop here in town used to live in NH and he uses the term "corker" a lot too...never heard anyone else say it...lol.

gfdeputy2 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Yeah I think it is a NH saying which sounds strange since I grew up on Looong Island Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiefbkt Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 He is one impressive buck. I'm hoping the next time you post pictures of him he is being held in your hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WNY Bowhunter Posted October 4, 2012 Author Share Posted October 4, 2012 Checked the cam again on the way to hang a stand yesterday and found 4 early morning visitors on the card. I think these 3 yearling bucks (spike, 5-pt, 4-pt.) are the smallest bucks on the farm... This guy is a 3.5 year old...good body size...not too great in the headgear department.

WNY Bowhunter Posted October 5, 2012 Author Share Posted October 5, 2012 Guess so...not much on top. Nice shots! He sure didn't put on much bone from last year... I saw this buck monday evening. He came out into a cut cornfield where I'll be set-up tonight in a new stand. I'm debating whether or not he's a shooter for this early in season should he show up again. My goal is a 3.5 year old buck, reguardless of score. He fits the bill, but like I said...it's early yet!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phade Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Tough choice, can only make that decision when it presents itself. I killed a decent buck, if I had known what deer specifically it was that he was staring at....I wouldn't have shot. Sometimes, it's just a heat of the moment decision.
