squirrelwhisperer Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 all in the name of shooting the big one. sad is right.I couldn’t agree more. I always try to do the right thing even when getting away with the wrong thing is possible. I have gone years at a time without taking a deer because of either being very selective or not wanting to be unethical. That’s how I got the name Squirrelwhisperer haha. I have had stands disappear too. Have to chain them to the tree now. Have to worry about trail cams also. Truth is I hate ppl that break/bend the rules and I hate ppl that waste animals. The other day I found a large body deer with his head missing just dumped on the side of the road. I would never fault someone for head hunting but don’t dump the animal. Donate it if your not gonna eat it. there are ppl less fortunate that would truly appreciate that animal. I so envy you guys with these huge pieces of land where no one ever goes and the deer frolic and play. If I can see 40 yds in a spot I’m lucky. Btw, if I did use a howitzer, I’d be aiming for all your bucks from here lolllll Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cabin Fever Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Mighty windy! Thankfully this big ole oak isn't swaying much. I assume all or most of the acorns have fallen already, as I've only heard a few hit the ground in the past hour.Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckmaster7600 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 One of my favorite things in the fall woods is watching a flock of turkeys fly down for the day and watching and listening to them set up the days pecking order.

moog5050 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Packed light. Tab, rangefinder and grunt tube. That’s it. Busted a couple deer coming in. Heard a doe blowing well down the valley and two button bucks with the smaller kicking the bigger several times. Light wind at least where I am sitting. Oh and a cat out of nowhere. Looked skinny and homeless. Enjoy all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowmanMike Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 I drove home from Boston last night and when i got off the interstate and closer to home the fields were just packed with deer. 11 p.m. And i saw a real nice buck,at least 3.5 year old on the same ridge where the stateland is located that i want to try out. Exciting stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
