Sorry to hear that. Never hurts to at least ask or make the connection. Perhaps the hunter would want your advice on what has worked there over the years in terms of stand locations, and may just let you hunt it.
I've found that cold calling local farmers for hunting permission for waterfowl...
I was reading through the latest DNR regs for an entirely different reason and this stood out to me. If I read this correctly, a Glock 23 would technically be a legal deer pistol, correct? Even though case length is too short, the specific callout for 40 S&W, and the 4.02" barrel should be...
Great buck!
I saw nothing but does after opening weekend, and decided I'd wait for antlers this year during gun season. Like someone else said, it was like a switch turned off on the bucks, so assuming the local bucks had all bread the hot does, so they are all taking a few days off. Hoping...
That really stinks, especially since you were very polite about the entire ordeal. I would suggest that you do consider what your options are for charges, or at a very minimum see if a local CO will have a good talk with him about property rights and trespassing. I've been too nice to...
Heard some early shots this morning too, 7:01 was the first shot. Then around 9:00 some guys really opened up. I'm hoping they were rabbit or bird hunting.
Had a small 8 walk under the stand this morning hot on a doe that was behind me and wouldn't stop in a shooting lane. Tried all I could...
Watched two little bucks this morning that were begging to be shot, but gonna let them grow a few more years and hope the bigger bucks start coming out to play soon. Sounded like a few guys set their watches ahead a few minutes. First shot I heard this morning was 7:02. :draw:
Congrats to our beloved INGO-er who shall remain nameless unless otherwise named!!! I had the good fortune of shooting with her in an Appleseed a number of years ago, and yep, she out shot me. :cool:
Outstanding! Awesome that you had some good pictures of him and also were able to hunt him hard like that. Where we hunt we have a lot of transient deer, so it is always a crap shoot if we're going to shoot something we've seen on camera. The buck I killed this year I had only seen 2x...
I have one worked up and tempted to go out with it for the rest of the season and see if I can't get a doe with it. I've got a 150 Hornady SST load worked up based on my 150gr Hornady FMJBT load for my Garands.
Stang, what round did you use?
