My son was struggling with his shooting. Figured out he wasn't relaxed and he was trigger punching his release. He switched to a thumb release to help that.
He relaxed a bit too much and forgot to hold on tight. Sent his release into his brand new drop away and sheared it clean off...
Is this a cell cam pic? Have you been out there to look? Call me crazy....one on the left is fresh dirt. Possibly the one on the right is whatever made the fresh dirt. Zoom way in, you just might agree with me.
Was trimming and packaging some deer meat this evening and I got hungry. So I hacked off a 1/4 strap and spiral cut it to about 3/8 thick. Light coat of olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Grilled 450 for 60 seconds per side. Probably should have been 50-55 seconds, but it didn't...
Friday morning and evening and Saturday morning were painfully slow. Tonight picked up a bit, a few does and a couple 2 yr olds. Then driving to town after dark I had the truck window down a bit and I heard absolutely smashing of antlers . I hit the skids and grabbed the spotlight. 20yds...
My neighbor likes to keep the creek clean and he burns all the time in the summer. I see deer grazing right in the smoke. Doesn't bother them a bit, but I will add this...
Deer smell the way we see colors in a picture. We smell pizza and a deer would smell every ingredient in the pizza...
Anything moving today in the warm weather Ishi?
Went out from 6:15 to 7:45 this morning. Saw 5 bucks from a spike to a 3yr old 8, all dogging a very young doe at the same time. That was my 5 minutes of action then it was dead. Trying to get out of work early for this afternoon cold front but...
Well Daver, that's way more critters than I saw tonight. I guessed on this plot and apparently guessed it very wrong. Oh well, another beautiful evening.
....and I snapped this one on the walk back home. Didn't feel like butchering tonight anyway. All good! :)
Does and bucks all over me this morning. This pretty boy was really working the ladies for a night out as he exerted his dominance across the timber. Very tempting, but I just feel like he needs another 4 or 5 years to reach his potential. Today, he got a pass, but if I catch up with him in...
Deer movement has been as slow as it's been in a decade, but the scenery this year has more than made up for it. A couple hours in the stand just flys by, but maybe I'm just getting older and appreciating things a bit differently. However, I'm nowhere near as old as Daver.
Hunting atop a...
Saw 48 squirrels, 3 chipmunks, and 5 bucks total this morning, the biggest was this 3 point stud muffin.
But hey, beautiful morning and unbelievable sunrise. Good stuff!
I know you're just taunting me to pull out your swamp rat birthday suit picture again. Sorry man, but if I flash that picture more than once a year, Skip is gonna boot me out of here! No worries, I'm sure you'll give me some low hanging fruit and an excuse to post it up again next year. ;)
When I rattle I always seem to bust up my own knuckles or get busted. When I grunt, I say the wrong thing. When I snort wheeze I swear they roll their eyes. So my 4 step strategy is pretty simple.
1) Climb up
2) Sit down
3) Shut up
4) Don't move
Yes sir!! Most of the time she will win the argument, but every once in a while I send the perfect message that says "you will NEVER talk to me that way again!" ;)
