Five Seasons Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Well drizzle in December with snow on the ground was not how I envisioned my last sit of the season. Oh well. 2 deer in the freezer and thankful for that.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can remember to turn your phone sideways when taking the picture they will post the right way, at least thats how it goes for me ..

ATbuckhunter Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Forgot to show a pic of what I've been doing the last few days. I smoked some of the deer that I shot this year. Came out pretty good this year. I'll have to shorten the amount of time it stays in the salt though. Here is also a pic of my first duck. It's a black duck for sure. Ended up getting two mergansers and 2 geese on my way out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New York Hillbilly Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 (edited) I can't believe I'm doing this, but yesterday I drove from Rochester to my property in 7M just for the afternoon watch, and then back to Rochester. I needed to take care of business here today, but am driving back to 7M at 3:30 AM from Rochester. I'll spend the last day of this season in the woods, then drive back to Rochester to put this season behind me. It's a 5 hour round trip! What is wrong with me! : 0 Edited December 19, 2017 by New York Hillbilly spelling 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes been smoking meat in that shack for the last 5 or 6 years so I know its safe. We never put more than 3 or 4 logs at a time so the flame doesn't get any higher than that.

Good for you & good luck!My neighbor and I leave at 1am, drive three hours to Watertown, paddle 2.4 miles and kill a limit of ducks. Paddle 2.4 miles out and drive home. Last year I drove right from that to Secaucus 5.5 hours to work. This hobby of ours makes us do strange things lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not, but my family has been smoking like this for as long as I can remember as well as the landowners family doing it back in Spain. I did check on it frequently, but since the windows are always closed the fire really settles down after a few min. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turkeyfeathers Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 9H and last day. Sneaking out for a few hours. Need to grab cams , blind , 2 folding chairs , 2 turkey strut chairs all in blind Brought kids sled to latch them to. Brothers attorney has all the paperwork so closing on property any day and need to get my stuff out. Guess they get gifted my ladder stand as it’ll be frozen in. Parked in my bushes off road. Don’t think I’ll be stuck later but we’ll see. Waders with me to cross creek. The windmills are loud with this wind. 38 degrees. Not expecting much today but at least nice to be out here and for the last time Shoot straight people. It’s now or never. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turkeyfeathers Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 (edited) So far so good. No waders needed Pop up blind is already half way down so easier to fold up. Tree surfing Not as many tracks as I would have thought. Hoping for some early action Edited December 19, 2017 by turkeyfeathers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
