A very good friend of mine asked yesterday about bringing his 10 year old grandson to hunt today. He called earlier today to tell me unfortunately his grandson came down with cold like symptoms and couldn’t make it. So he asked about coming over and bow hunting. I said sure so he was coming over...
Decided to get out there again this morning since the Thursday- Saturday forecasts are showing a good chance of rain. Calm and quiet with dry leaves making it easier to hear one walking. Good luck to everyone else that can go today.
Just climbed in to a hang on stand overlooking a hardwood creek bottom. No acorns left here but corn piles are nearby. Anybody else out on this balmy, calm December afternoon. 1st deer is heading this way.
Got this pic of this little one last night. It is standing next to a 2 1/2 year old buck. It almost looks to be a month or two old. Never had a pic of this one before.
Sitting in my Summit waiting for daylight and the big one. Should be able to get in a couple of hours hunting before the rains set in today. Good luck everyone! Stay safe.
Just set up in my climber in Jefferson. Couldn’t ask for a prettier afternoon. Deer were moving good this morning. Cameras have shown very good activity at this spot in the last hour of daylight.
I’ve gotten multiple pics of this doe the past 2 days. It looks like she has been branded. This is in Jefferson county. Any ideas as to why someone would brand a deer?
I have a buddy that has baited with pears for several years and he claims that is his favorite and most productive bait. I ran into a friend this week that has 2 loaded pear trees and she told me to pick all I want. So I picked @ 100 lbs and put some out yesterday. I went out this morning to...
Took a walk in a nearby park with my wife yesterday and we came upon two Shagbark hickories that were dropping huge nuts. So I decided to go back today and I picked Three 1 1/2 gallon buckets of mostly hulled hickory nuts. That was a walk in the park. So now for the past 30 minutes I have been...
Just got settled in my Summit climber on a ridge top of red and chinquapin oaks. I’ve got 8 chinquapin’s dropping within easy bow range. What a sweet sound! Haven’t had a shooter on camera here yet this season but I wasn’t passing up the opportunity to get in a hunt on my birthday.
It has crossed my mind. I’m trying to find something positive to associate with the invasion of the stink bugs. I probably catch and/or kill a couple dozen everyday that have made their way into the house.
I have one lick that has been used for over 20 years that is probably 10 ft by 6 ft and a foot deep. I have refreshed this lick every couple of years using a 4:1 ratio trace mineral salt:dical. The deer wear it out. It’s not uncommon for me to get 200-500 pics every week during the summer on...
Anyone ever see a two headed gobbler?
My wife took these pics from the kitchen window yesterday morning while I had the twin grandsons in a blind 100 yards behind the house. We could see him strutting but obviously couldn’t shoot in that direction.
