DirtTime Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Seeing I just got my wheels back, told the g/f I am hunting Turkey Day morning. Her reply was "Great, that's when you'll get a deer and miss dinner." I don't have one issue missing a bird dinner in lue of having to skin and butcher a deer. LOL Anyone else hunting the holiday? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeverSeenNorHeard Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Shoot some ducks in the AM, do the family thing and eat in the afternoon, jump on the road to the SZ property in the late afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coonhunter Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 To me, Thanksgiving is as close to a perfect holiday as there is. Hunt in the morning, come home to family and friends for a gut stuffing meal, and then watch football. Plus, get paid to do it. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ants Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I always do Thanksgiving morning. I consider it lucky. I have killed a few good bucks on Thanksgiving morning. Three years ago I sat until 11 and decided to take the long way back to my truck. About 1/4 of the way there I shot a big 9 as he and 2 other good bucks chased a doe, out of the thick crap and into the open area, about 30yrds in front of me. Nothing but pure luck, but I'll take it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtTime Posted November 23, 2014 Author Share Posted November 23, 2014 I wish everyone a great hunt and a gas busting dinner. I plan to sit the morning on public land, hoping the cold and possible snow will keep the 30 hunters per acre indoors. If the deer come, and I get the shot, it is what it is.

BUCKANDAQUARTER Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I'll be out as usual. I don't think we are going anywhere so I don't have to worry about ruining dinner like when I shot that buck at 3:00 a few years ago... a mile from the road. .. and I unknowingly had the turkey fryer in my truck. That went over like a turd in a punch bowl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shooter Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Yes for sure its tradition for me!! Always deer hunt on Thanksgiving. It is almost like opening day all over again only better. Just something special about harvesting a deer on Thanksgiving. I am very thankful to able to hunt........ Here's a pic of my 2012 Thanksgiving morning buck. Not a trophy to most but it was a great hunt lots of activity in a perfect setting with perfect weather conditions. Truly a memorable one for sure!! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
