If you get drawn, how do you find out? I've never had to worry about it. Do they send you an email?

I think I've seen them mentioned, but I believe hawks put quite a dent in the poult population. I've watched a pair of hawks follow 2 hens and their poults, both picking off 1 in a 5 minute period. Waaay too many hawks.

I used to do the same thing. But then I ended up with carpet beetles, which destroyed a number of my mounts, deer, coyote, fox, partridge, grouse, duck, and badger. I have over 40 mounts in my condo, but one day the bugs came. I couldn't figure out how they got in...you can barely see them. Then...

I'm not up on the exact science of it all, but it seems odd, at least to me, that hens are that picky when it comes to breeding. So if you are lucky enough to kill the dominate bird by non-reaping measures, many hens won't be bred because the stud tom is dead? I guess I always figured in most...

I have not experienced/noticed the decline that most are reporting, but perhaps it's headed my way

By the time the election comes around, most people will have forgotten what Trump said about Powell. As much as I enjoyed him as my president, I don't want to see him run again - he can only serve one more term, I'd much rather have a strong Republican who could serve consecutive terms. Plus...

Did anyone take a youth to Knox this past weekend? If so, how was it?

I hunted Knox for many years, but not since the isportsman has been out. I decided to try turkey hunting there this year. Apparently I have an isportsman account, but it's not active. I sent an email to get it reactivated. I know my guns will need to be registered once again. I have tried to...

Turkeys do? I guess I never thought about it. But now that you mention it, we always throw baby mice in and watch the chickens eat them. I wouldn't have guessed turkeys would eat eggs though. Thanks for the info

For my own knowledge, how?

I appreciate the feedback. We pulled our traps today. Got 1 more coon for a total of 40. That's over 4 different properties, totaling about 1000 acres. I have no idea how many coons, possums, etc... there are on that much land. Not sure if it even makes a dent. I do know that we haven't seen but...

We decided we were going to trap this year, to see if we could help the turkey population. Bought licenses, traps, etc... Our current tally is 39 coons, 13 possums, 3 skunks, 1 red fox, 1 bobcat, 16 coyotes and 3 mice. I'm starting to have an ethical issue with all this simply because other than...

I've seen 8 so far. Just shot a doe. Need 1 more for a season wrap up

I appreciate the comments...thank you and Merry Christmas!

Sorry, had a little more on my plate than I expected. Trying to shrink these pics down so I can post them. The first pic is of my Ky deer, the one I left till morning. I hit him right behind the shoulder, maybe a hair back. Not sure how I punched the stomach, but I did. To the ground shrinkage...

Found him first light. Probably went 150 yds. Was still a bit warm. Arrow exiting through stomach. Nasty, nasty gut job. Definitely not ideal, but a success I suppose. Thanks for your opinions!

Almost broadside, maybe slightly quarter towards. Probably 15 yards. Muzzy 100 grain

Well, Michigan IS a blue state!
