Hunt !  We already know the outcome of the game  150+ points against the Bills the last 3 games    Hunt !

Don't you usually watch and hunt?


Kareem Hunt! Or deer hunt!

When I bowhunt from a blind I watch on phone, but gun hunting I would be out in the open sitting against a tree or rock.

My oldest son has been asking to go on a hunt with me this year so yesterday afternoon we headed up to my property in 6G and setup in a field surrounded by thick woods. I had been hunting a nice 8 that I have had camera pics of all year but didnt want to pass on an opportunity to hunt with one of my kids so we setup in a spot where the buck hadnt been seen all year. 

Knowing that the rut was nearing the end, I decided to use a decoy and a little code blue just in case. 

In the field by 2:30. At 4:15 I grunted 5 times and the deer I have been hunting all season runs out of the woods with his nose to the ground and immediately tries to breed my decoy (I guess it wouldnt hurt to have another one....). He dismounted when he was staring down my barrel at 75 yards and dropped in his tracks when the .300 Win Mag barked. 

Sadly, we see very few large deer and by most standards on this site, its probably a less than impressive deer but to my boy and I it was the greatest thing that could have happened to us yesterday. Bonding time and getting a deer that we were specifically targeting.  In a couple months he will be 14 and it will be his time to start sitting with a gun. 

Thankful and blessed!

How did you get this pic?  I just noticed the set of legs in the background, after seeing it umpteen times.

Nothing moving in 6n I should have known it was going to be a crappy watch when I showed up at the spot I wanted to hunt at 615 there were already 2 cars there so it was off to plan B, I should have taken plan C which was go back home to bed. I plan to go back out this afternoon. Good luck to everyone going back out.

Just shot a doe on my buddies property about an hour ago. Not huge but not a yearling. She's dressed and in the truck ready to take to the in laws for skinning and butchering. I'll take some pics and post em up when I get there. Had to boogie home for breakfast with my folks so no in the woods pics.

Congrats to the successful hunters today- some real beauties.
I was up in Columbia county at my buddy’s property for last night and this morning with my son and his dad. We saw a bunch last night (which was great for my boy). My buddy passed on a doe this morning at first light, hoping I would get a shot with my kid with me. No such luck but good times and memories made
