LIVE From The Woods 2021 Stories And Pictures Let's Have Em!

[TreeGuy]

Now Andrew, God had blessed me with far more deer than anyone needs in my first 9 years of hunting.  I am fine with a bit of a pause this year while other things take priority.   Just get the freaking Yote call ready.  Lol

Yote call is always ready !!!!

I am nearly starting ML season a day early because I forgot the clip for my 3 shot Marlin M512 bolt.  It takes almost as long to get off a second shot without that as it does with my ML.

If my target button buck shows up, before I clock out at 4, he is going to have to give me a real easy shot for me to try it.

I had to shoo him away, when I killed his brother with the same gun here in September.  It was warm then, and I only had room for one in my deer fridge.  It would be cool if I could reunite him with his brother today, using the same gun.

It would have been tough up here in yesterday’s wind.  I see a dead ash fell nearby and the ladder up to my stand was blown down.
 

 Ma and Pa said that my target bb was last out about 4:00 pm on Friday.  They got a real good view of the clover plot from their back window.

Good luck to all out trying to get it done on their last hunt  of the 21 sz gun season.

Someone piss in your cornflakes this morning. It's a hunting forum. Don't like the post, don't read em. 

Post according to thread topic might be a start not major derailments

48 and snow all gone. If it gets any wetter and muddier I am going to have to get taller boots to get into this stand. Still waiting for a cruising buck and got a signed over doe tag in case a fat one shows.

Some one is either killing all the deer in area or target practicing.

Every 3-5 minutes I hear a shot south of me from the same location

Last northern zone sit of the year. Have zero need or desire to kill another one and had no intention of hunting this afternoon but its weird sitting at home during deer season.

Thats a wrap on my season. Feeling blessed the freezer is full and 1 is at the taxidermy

I'm in for a sit this afternoon.  I wanted to come change batteries on a camera that isn't really in a great spot to hunt tonight but I decided to sit back here anyway. I busted 6 out of their beds while climbing up into the stand so I'm not very optimistic but I have a better chance here than on the couch.

49 degrees and 20 mph WSW wind here in wmu 9F for the last hour.  Quite comfortable up in this stand with my body out of the wind thanks to the barn wood wall, but my orange hat just went flying.   
 

I climbed down (unarmed) to get it. Target bb has 45 minutes to show up, if he wants to join his brother today, and then I am outa here.  I might come back next Sunday afternoon with my ML.

Thought I’d break out the ML a little early! Saw a gobbler and 4 hens as I got into the stand. Already saw more than I was expecting to! LOL

My son is hunting about 10 miles away. He just texted and said he saw several scrapes that have been opened up in the past 2 days! Encouraging!

I am NOT digging the tree that fell against the tree my stand is in!! Looks like it’s pinned by a limb from my tree, so hopefully it STAYS THERE!!

I would get out of that stand now.  They don't call them widow maker for nothing.

I rarely ever pass on the last chance. Now, rifle or muzzleloader. Especially in nice weather. Made a loop and collected all of my trail cameras and now sitting till dark. Surveying the storm damage as I go. One tree in particular broke off right above my ladder stand. Glad the wind wasn’t right for sitting there yesterday.

I’m in for my second evening of NY gun season. Been a week since I have been in any woods due to work. That said I’m looking forward to the next few weeks of late season. Maybe something will happen.

[Cabin Fever]

Surprisingly, I haven’t heard a shot all day! Thought for sure they would move today after that wind storm yesterday and all last night!

35 minutes left before I call it a wrap on rifle season. 

Is it okay if I continue to post in here when I swap to bow next week? 

[mlammerhirt]

In for the last hr.....need a dance partner!
Also had to play find the ground blind for a bit......sucker was launched 75 yards away through the pines from the winds last night.

Not looking good for seeing that wounded doe tonight. I was hoping to see her, before a coyote got her.

Shot a nice doe this morning around 8:45……..she dressed out at 125#

I don’t like to post lousy pictures like this.   I MUCH prefer a field photo before gutting but my phone was out of juice.

Well " Gun is Done " .... Crossbow's open's tomorrow !

[Tughill Tamer]

Looks like that's it for my season no sightings this afternoon. I can't complain had a decent season with a buck and a doe. I'll be following along for you folks with more season left. Good luck!

I feel dumber just from reading this.  A 100 grain bullet with a muzzle velocity of 3100fps creating 2100 ft/lbs?  Somehow that isn't enough to reliably kill deer, but it also has devastating results on meat (which deer are made of).  Based on physics, math, logic ,personal experience it makes no sense to me.  Not a thing wrong with a 30-30, but don't pretend it's superior to a .243 or that a person can't make a poor shot with either one. 

Same guy that swears by the chest girth chart, Texas heart shots and eats the nuts.

Take everything wolc as well intentioned, but with a grain of salt.

7 does and fawns, 2 small bucks. They’re starting to really hit the mowed corn.

I'm sure you'd rather be tracking, but that sounds like a fun evening hunt to me.

We've had a 3 leg doe running around here for 3 years. She had twins this year. She might surprise you and be there next season.

[Cabin Fever]

Nothing... A little disappointed, but still have muzzleloader to look forward to. I guess the one good thing about not shooting a buck with my bow is that now I have a buck tag for muzzleloader. Trying to find the bright side of a sucky bow season, I guess.
