I’m going to do a new thread story for a full detail but here’s a quick summery. Missed a bird yesterday. Today started off slow. Heard him gobble a couple times through out the morning but couldn’t get to him. Got set up where I thought he was going to come in. Had a hen feeding in the field...
Yesterday was arguably one of the most active turkey days I’ve ever had. Seen a lot of movement. Heard a lot if gobbles. In the end I choked are 11:30. Ended a perfect kill streak. Rushed a shot and I had to watch him fly away.
Today is the exact opposite. Heard 1 bird so far. And todays the...
Agreed on every hunt is different. For me the amount of time money and effort put in makes it worth a few laughs. My group of close friends all work so hard on everything outdoors. You hook into a 5 pound bass and your heart rate and tension go from 0 to 100 and once you land it and all that...
I have the Icotech gc320 on a Black Friday deal for like half the cost a couple years ago. I like it so far. Just got it back from a friend yesterday and plan on using it this week. It did take a little home work to watch videos and match up the call names with other brand names going into it...
little bro and I are up. Prolly the last hunt of the season. Bumped a deer about 30 yards from my stand. Other than that neither of us have seen a thing. Disappointed in my results file the year. Hardest I’ve hunted and most work I’ve put in but still not a great out come. Did learn a lot tho...
Crazy enough last Thursday when I had my chance at a shooter I had switched up the morning routine. My shoulder has been bothering me so I brought a Honda ruckus moped so that I could drive the corn to drop it off instead of carry it to both locations. Parked the trailer at where I planned on...
Squirrels squirrels and more squirrels. It’s hard to relax or concentrate with the amount of noise they are making. At this point I know I am tipping these deer off on my entry on the days we are hunting. Too much day light camera movement on the days I’m at work compared to the days we hunt...
Well we’re approaching the last hour and a half. I’d really like to get this done. I’ve had a dog running and barking the holler I’m in all evening. Hoping that doesn’t mess things up to bad. Temperatures dropping and I’m getting excited.
Academy has all of its winter hunting gear on sale. Stopped in on my way to hunt and got some insulated mucks for $65 normally $110. GAME CHANGER! Such an upgrade from what I had been using. I’m as comfortable as can be
I didn’t get off till 8:00am.sense I was running late Little brother sat in the stand I had a nice 8 at on Thursday and couldn’t get the shot off. He had a doe at 15 just after shooting light and didn’t shoot! We’re on brown it’s down mode at this point. I don’t blame him tho. He wants a buck...
Just had a stud 8 at 40. Biggest deer I’ve ever had in bow range. He was on a line right to where I wanted him. Had 4 doe In between him and I. One of them got down wind and to close. Had too many eyes to get drawn back. She blew and they all spooked out of range. So much excitement and...
Mistakes were made. Missed a chip shot at 22 yards. Clipped a limb about 5 yards shy of a doe. Haven’t done that in a long time. Going to be hard to sleep now. At least it was a clean miss. Not the ‘23 start I was looking for.
Feels like October. Wish I was tagged out so I could be crappie fishing today and tomorrow. Had a lot of day time activity from December 10-17th. I’ve got one last push in me to try and get it done. Either had camera issues or no deer over the last 3 days on the spot in set up today. Going to...
Todays my last try for a while. Head to Seattle Monday morning for a hunting trip. Figured I give today all I got. Came straight from getting off work. Got set up an hour early. Found a 5 hour and pizza combos in my pack. Breakfast in the stand. Wanted to have plenty of time to calm things down...
Is there a way to see what the flow is for the river mcalpine upper. I can see where it shows the water level but I don’t understand that with current. Hunted it opening day and felt safe and comfortable. Wanted to know what it is today compared to then.
