I used to shoot the 2-blade rage until I watched a Drury DVD. They had been pedaling Rages, but I kept noticing shot after shot of poor penetration. It's just way to easy to hit a shoulder blade. I hit shoulder on a buck two years ago with a Rage and it penetrated a half inch past the...

i feel your pain with bloodtracking. I'm completely at the mercy of others. Great deer and story.

Sometimes you can just get so physically and mentally beaten, and you think it’s not gonna happen. Then it does and makes the scouting, knocking on doors, preparation, sleep deprivation, and time in the stand all worth it. I know a lot of you guys would’ve passed this deer… but he’s my...

Dude, I've never seen a buck just gushing blood like in that video. It was like someone was turning the faucet on. It's amazing to see that he fought as hard as he did with damage like that. Way to put the hammer on an old deer. Great buck and great footage.

Hosssssssssss!

IMO, the tinks or code red or hunters specialty stuff isn't nearly as effective as the local stuff. I use Mrs. Doe Pees and swear by it. It's so much stronger smelling than the other stuff. The other stuff is diluted, boiled and bottled. Whenever a buck gets down wind of it, they come right...

Good luck...keep us posted!

Burnout! It's all mental dude. As much as you want to, you've gotta skip out on those October sits to let your stands rest for when it really counts. I typically just skip the entire month of October, and let the neighbors spook the deer onto my properties. You need to regroup. Hunting is...

I really like the old guy on the show, Jack. His voice makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. But every single one of those guys on the show are idiots. Granted, Dakota Fred is the biggest douche of them all, but I've heard that those types of scenarios happen all the time with...

I think that everyone here can agree that it is very easy to take a gamble and lose. You can usually pinch it before it gets to be too much of an issue. I have no qualms sharing this story...I don't know any of you. Still haven't told the wife. Probably won't for a few years if at all.

I had never done anything more than a shart since diapers... Well, I was in stand at 6:15, and the first wind hit me at 8. I tried to fight, but it just wouldn't go away. I got down off the stand about a half hour later to cut my sit short. I thought I could make it back to the car, where...

Great deer. Congrats!

Always take a dump before you go out, and bring a couple piss bottles. I also recommend William Faulkner...he's got a few hunting books... and the Bear is damn good. The original Tarzan book is a good book for the woods too.

Great job! Always nice to see women getting into the sport.

Phenomenal. Gratz!

I never even thought about a cavity, but that makes a lot of sense. Ugh...that's gotta be just brutal pain. I needed a root canal a couple months ago, where my mouth started swelling a bit but nothing like that. It was the worst pain of my life. How the heck can a deer recover from that...

Should I have to worry about whatever he's got spreading? He's also got something going on with the hair on the top of his back (which you can't see in these pics). I call him Red Man for obvious reasons. I would be ending my season by shooting this buck. I've been debating whether I...
