Marion Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 A “cruiser” came thru the woods behind my new stand, scent checking a clover plot, 5 minutes after sunset. I was able to cash in on the new 1/2 hour rule: A BB and bb (during early antlerless gun season) from that stand this year. Great buck and loving the Butt Pullerhttps://www.instagram.com/thejerkman#JerkmanCustoms#WeDemandUnlimitedLikes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used it on the front end first, to drag him about 40 yards out of the woods to a clearing, then on the back end prior to gutting. He was pretty stout, had to be well over 200 with the guts in. Skidded ok on the light dusting of snow. My dad came back with his side by side to drag him to my truck. I took off the tailgate for a ramp and winched him up into the bed with a come-along. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully I shoot straight today and the trees stop jumping in front of my bullets . I should know better then to shot at a running deer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It faces west and (as long as there’s a skiff of snow on the ground) the viewing area is vast. I’m hopeful…… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turkeyfeathers Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 The 2 quarter horses startled me with walking in. Get to 30 yards of stand and 5 sets of deer eyes gleaming with red headlamp directly under my stand. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moho81 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Went for a enclosed stand with heat. Besides one group of doe nothing else was seen yesterday so I really don’t feel bad about skipping the day. 28 degrees with a real feel of 18 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are well worth including in my field "deer gut" kit. On younger deer it is easy to tear out the butt plug. After inserting and twisting you want to pull gently on the plug with one hand while cutting around the rectum with a knife in the other hand until it releases completely and you can pull it out 10 inches or so. Tie it off somehow so that when you pull it through from the opposite side while gutting no fecal material ends up in the cavity. Yeah, the old broken stick method does not have to be used anymore. Here are a couple tips. Disinfect completely after each use, there are nasty bacteria in fecal material. Also, don't leave it out where non-hunters can see it. You'll have some explaining to do!

Five Seasons Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Passed a small buck right around legal light. 4 doe hanging out in the neighbors cut corn. Wind is sporadic but when it gusts, damn is it cutting. This is why I spend money on good gear. Days like today.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
