You just need to know where to look. I found a new spot last night. And I saw a really nice buck with a harem of does feeding there. Even better, I got permission today to hunt it. It's a small piece surrounded by homes. The plan is to scout it from a distance to see where they are moving, then try to set up on him over the weekend. It's a good food source, so hopefully he keeps hitting it for the next few days. Fingers are crossed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers are crossed. Good luck with that new parcel. I am limited to how I can monitor these properties (no trail cams allowed, no access until certain times etc). The properties are also vast covering many towns in 6 different parks. There are deer but they have a ton of space to roam which makes it difficultSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five Seasons Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Anyone think the deer will be moving Sunday in single digits. I think I’ll put my pack boots on and try to get one with the new crossbow I got for Christmas!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adkhunter1590 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Champlain bound! Hoping for some good ice and to not freeze to death in the unheated camp. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATbuckhunter Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Last day in Florida and I was on fire. Should have been fishing this spot the whole time instead of trying to find new places.

My buddy has a camp here so we just fish out in front of it up and down the shore line. There’s 10 inches of ice out here. Haven’t seen another person out fishing or riding yet. Looks like we are the crazy ones lol. It was pretty cold today but not all that bad when you stayed moving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adkhunter1590 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 The fishing sounds like fun but unheated camp sounds real bad!!Well we’ve prepared the best we could for it. 1 kerosene heater, the entire buddy heater set (little buddy, buddy and big buddy haha). And 1 electric heater, blankets draped over all the doors and closed ourselves into the living room lol. I even brought two sleeping bags to make sure I slept nice and warm at least!

BizCT Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Stopped at my parents house after work and picked up all my hunting clothes. Might give it a go tomorrow morning in 3S with the bow. Haven’t shot it in 10 weeks and of course I forgot to grab my boots. Sucks! I’ll probably just hunt till 9am (if my feet make it that long). Haven’t hunted in 3S since 11/24.

crappyice Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Pretty morning of 10 degree temps, no wind and some flurries in 3s. Hoping the ladies who made these comeback through. This may be my notion of the ninth.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turkeyfeathers Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Live from the road on way to Timmy’s. Most beautiful pair of red fox crossed the road in front of me. So neat to see them bounding through the snow together in an open field. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crappyice Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Strike three but I went down swinging!!! Overall I’m real happy with my season- 2 doe and a spike plus put my buddy on a slammer 8. My sightings were way up and even better my skunk days were few.
