Nice pic Kat. Love all the green! Now you've got me itchn' for spring...
Saw some hunting show last night where they were flinging arrows at gobblers. Can't wait....
Jim Kasper, Robert Bateman and Steven Kozar have some good stuff.
Bobcat, if you like Jack Paluh check out Robert Griffing (I think his work's better).
Kat, hadn't heard of Henle before. Thanks! Primal is good
About 3 Octobers ago I was sitting in my treestand watching squirrels when all of sudden a shadow under a tree about 40 yards in front of me stood up and started browsing on leaves. I'd been there for almost an hour and never even noticed the doe was bedded there. She continued to feed and...
I'm sure your local NRCS office can set you up with all kinds of info. Might even pay you some for doing it. Or maybe that's what you're doing already. For a good planting try to get a diverse a mix as possible. I'd stay away from switch grass if it was me - the native switch is ok but a lot...
I tried those a couple of years ago. The ones you're supposed make a special bucket to stick over them. Most deer that came across it were curious but would snort and stamp their feet at it. Not sure if it was the bucket or the smell. Overall I'd say more deer were spooked by it than...
You guys can probably guess my opinion on this one... I raise buffalo and if a wolf pack can take out one of my cows, I say more power to them. People that try to raise ill-adapted livestock on the edge of wilderness get what they deserve...
I was thinking most bucks should be shed by now too, but yesterday while I was driving home from ice fishing I saw a 140 class buck with both sides still on. He was with 30+ anterless deer on some public ground. I think I'll have to do some scouting there for next season...
Makes you wonder... It's got a pink nose and eyes - which usually means albino. The tarsal glands are stained dark too - could that dark forhead just be stains from glands and rubbing on trees?
Like Alaskan said - don't overlook ground hunting. You don't have to pack a blind - just set up under any tree. Assuming you've got good camo and scent control, you'd be surprised at how close you can get to a deer just by sitting still. I've shot about half my archery deer just sitting on...
There's probably somebody within e-mail distance that has tons of slate sitting in their yard right now that could mail you some... Do an internet search for turkey call making? and see if you can hook up with somebody. If that fails try a geology supply catalog like Wards - they sell samples...
