Didn’t have a tag/license that allowed me to take a buck at the time I spotted him. Had him dead to rights at 230 yards. After some serious soul searching and sizing him up I decided he wasn’t going anywhere. So I went back to town and got on the computer and bought one. Then went back out and put the sneak on. Never been a poacher and don’t plan to start. It was awful tempting though. I used to be a bow hunter Ed instructor, I always told the students “ETHICS IS DOING THE RIGHT THING EVEN WHEN NOBODY IS WATCHING”
Sure didnt mean to call ya a poacher but what i kept reading got me thinking. Great stuff on the sneak and that is one nice deer for sure.
That’s a good one. I miss hog hunting. Me and a couple buddies used to go to Texas annually for 6 or 7 years
Got a button buck and a doe the last couple weeks. Freezer is darn near full of deer meat. I changed broadheads this year from fixed blade to mechanical 3 inch cut. Both deer made it less than 20 yards. Blood trails were incredible. All were just before dark, so I did not get any good pictures.
Gun opens tomorrow. Of course I have the week off. Weather is shaping up to be cold with snow. Leaving for camp around 2 today. Just trying to decide what saws to take as I heat with wood there too and there is always work to be done.
Our gun season opened yesterday. Bucks only with some antler restrictions. Did some breaking light calling and had a spike and 4 point come to the grunt tube. Neither legal shooters. Also saw 8 doe. Not legal till next Saturday. The 4 point came and made a scrape about 6 steps from my tree stand which was pretty cool to watch.
Good luck to you both, Ron T farmer steve Mike Morgan killed an 8 PT over in western PA yesterday evening.
Been raining all day here. Been dry in the blind. Supposed to get 5 inches of snow starting around 8 tonight.
Continues to be a good season. Shot a 4 point buck the first day of NY season and a nice 100 pond dressed doe yesterday in Pennsylvania with a DMAP tag.
