Hunted up in Saratoga for the Northern Zone opener and had some luck in the morning. I ended up seeing four does and a spike. Shot a doe at 25yds and she folded up within 20yds. Those RAGE 2 blades do some serious damage! The mosquitos were AWEFUL all day though, almost unbearable. Didn't see any deer in the evening but it was very warm out so I think they stayed put until after dark.

good job NJG... good start!

Hell of a job and guttin it as well. Ain't no blood on the belly...........I usually get some on there but it looks like you cut the belly out to the brown hair>>>?I always just sliced down straight from the sternum to the hole..... until I saw a buddy of mine cut out "basically all the white belly hair"...it seemed to be mutch easier to gut. Gave you more room to manover.

I cut that deeer from the sternum to the hole I just spread the chest cavity apart and dumped all the blood out of her carefully. I can't wait to hammer a buck in a couple weeks!

That is one of the cleanest gut jobs ever! Heres my Long Island doe from Sunday night. From the looks of her snout she seems to have some age on her. i didnt check the teeth and im kicking myself for not doing so.

Congratulations guys.

Sunday morning 10-9 slickhead.

PSE LiteSpeed - radial x weave - muzzy 100 gr phantom

Doe was in and around the clover plot before shooting light. I got into my stand about 20 minutes before shooting light and next thing I knew the doe was hanging around. 25 yard shot.
