To start off, working nights sucks... but it has its perks too! I can pretty much hunt whenever I want depending on the energy I have.. ie- coffee lol! I decided this am would be a good day to scope out a few properties, and see if I could make a move on something.. many of my properties are...

No, not really. Look at the temps comin tonight and tomorrow. I expected a lot of deer to be on their feet with weather change. Had deer in my back yard at sunset and saw a bunch on my drive to work.. would have loved to be in the stand tonight, but can only run on no sleep for so long lol

Yes. I shot my buddies TC 12 game at a water bottle 210yds. Held about 6" high and blew the bottle right out of the snow.. My dads friend used another guys 20ga barrel and with no range finder, or even skill at judging distance, held mid shoulder on a giant 200" buck and smoked it with a...

Great guns! For stand hunting I'll add... prob one of the top 5 that $ can buy as far as slug guns go. 1-2" groups at 100yds with ease. My buddy has one. Personally, I'd go with the 20ga barrel. not the best option if your doing deer drives. JMHO.

Alright guys/gals... I'm on a mission since shotgun season is over.. i figured I'd look here to see if anyone had a slug barrel for either of these guns: winchester SX3 Or Benelli SBE II Edit: already found the sbeII barrel, still in search for the sx3 Please pm me if you have one you'd...

I have that exact gun, and I love it! Tack driver for sure! Put a good scope on top and you'll be set! Im thinkin on up grading from my nikon to a Leoupold after seeing my buddies scope he just got lol

My hunting stuff usually comes on my bday(oct) but my grandpa gave me a backpack that he used when he hunted in Colorado. Its nothing fancy, blaze orange and only a few pockets..but since his stroke, and not being able to hunt... not to mention unsure of how much time he has left, this pack has...

Beautiful buck! Congrats! Great story as well!

I have no history besides for this past week of 2nd gun.. i believe this was the same buck that gave us the slip on 3 different occasions earlier in the week but cant be 100%. My guess was that he just bedded in the wrong location at the right time:D I'd guess him at least 5.5yrs old but will...

Lookin to get out on Thursday for a few hours but for sure after the 1st. Headed to a little honey hole in SW Iowa! Gotta let the muzzy eat;)

He's actually not missing any. He has short 4's and other kickers that add up to 15 if you count the points off the bases. 12 scorable that I can tell tho. Thanks guys! I can't wait to get him to the taxi!:)

Persistence pays off! Hunted hard all week, my buddies killed 2 nice bucks as a result, and after scrambling around today trying to get as many deer in front of us as possible.... it finally happened!:) 2 shots, he went 100yds and piled up!

So back to second shotgun and avoiding the other BS ( make it a thread damn!) 2nd gun has turned out fairly well for us.. we killed 2 140ish 10s and a decent 8 so far, have a great buck that won't leave the timber we are hunting and planning on getting him(hopefully) this weekend!-I have him...

Saw 3 big bucks yesterday am with no shot ops. Saw a 4th while driving to the next property. 10yds in front of the truck! He was purdy! Looked to be a Perfect 10, roughly a 150. Tried to take pictures but camera wouldn't function quick enough lol I went to work at 1pm, my dad sat in a stand...

Lmao! my sister in-law is of that same mindset...:confused: when she asks for a knife, I hand her a steak knife instead of a butter knife (on purpose) lol

Thank you everyone! That's exactly how I thought it was! I have a buddy who "thinks" all the info he gets from this guy at his work is gospel so I needed clarifying. ( I'm sure some of you know guys like that ha ha) Still waiting on a phone call about The pistol with the lazer in the grip...

Just wondering if anyone could post a link or something to clear up the regulations of hunting with a handgun. Questions a few of my buddies and I have are: With cwp, does the handgun have to be unloaded and cased when in the truck? If a gun has a laser on the grip, and batteries...

I'm in central ia. Even on the way to DSM on sat afternoon..I only saw one vehicle in a field drive. A Buddy of mine reported that their group didn't pull the trigger until Sunday afternoon. The guy missed a good one, and they had only seen 3 shooters, and a handful of does- and not many hunters

Not to sound "bad", but my group feeds off of other groups moving deer into creeks and isolated patches.. so its kind of exciting to think there will be plenty of people keeping deer on their feet!:) But I honestly have never seen so few hunters during 1st in my area... A relative of the...

Anyone else noticing fewer hunters out this past weekend? I go 2nd season, but my brother and I took a drive yesterday and only saw 4 different trucks, and one guy on a post. Also, didn't see but a couple deer in the fields Other than a low population, my thoughts on fewer deer being...
