Well season is coming to an end for alot of us. What are your offseason ponders? I think I'm going to get a new bow this year. What about you guys.?. Any plans for new equipment?
I think I'm going to add a few more hang ons that I can just put out and leave during the season. I'm also going to try to get a food plot going, haven't got the bugs worked out of that one yet.
Getting a couple coverts, setting up some food plots, mineral licks, feeders, and hanging more stands for the new property I can hunt. Also throwing on a new string, rest and possibly sight on the hoyt.
If I don't get it for xmas, I'm gonna get a new sight for my bow. Been looking at the trophy ridge react. Also, probably get some new strings and then start hitting the range as much as possible. Maybe work on my long range shots.
I would like to get another new bow too but dont know for sure yet. Im good on cameras and stands too.
Change the way I hunt. This year was awful for me. I need to adjust my tactics and get a better grasp on why I didn't see squat hardly. Wanting to add some cams to the arsenal (leanong toward Covert???). Due to thieves and old cams not working I'm down to 4. Property enhancement (another food plot, man made funnel through some hard to hunt areas). All that being said, I still have over a month left, and it's been 13 years since I went empty handed with my bow....a streak I plan on continuing.
My list is too long. Setting up 2 feeders over the winter to help keep my deer healthy. Putting my cams out to capture some unique photos. When the ground gets soft in the spring, putting in some watering holes, clearing food plot locations and trying to establish a mineral lick or two (Failed hard last year). Planting said food plots and fruit bearing trees. Start patterning spring gobblers and summer bucks. Hang some new setups accordingly.
1. Continue hunting till season closes in January. 2. New release for my bow. 3. Put food plots in two locations. 4. Continue to beg, plead and barter for more hunting locations. 5. Building a range in my back yard with a permanent stand to practice from. 6. Purchase a new 3D deer for the range. 7. Consider joining a league to hone my shooting skills. 8. Try and get a turkey in the spring with my bow.
Get more cameras into the woods. Build another homebrew and get that launched for winter inventory. Do some possible hinge cutting around our main plot. Possibly predator hunt a little. Always something to work on, that's for sure.
Finish the season Build a plan for 2014 Pray for an ELK tag Get into ELK shape Scout the Battlefield Extend my range Shoot the strings off my bow Restring my bow Get a Garmin Get some 10X42 Razors Go broke on "merino" Bivy Up....& on & on....
I have a running list I am adding to as the season goes, 4 water hole stands to prep and tons of scouting to be had.
Couldn't wait.. Got my new bow couple of weeks ago Now I'm going to make myself finish hard..cold weather is the hardest for me Pondering not hunting some spots because the lack of pics .. Bad camera placement on my part does not mean the big boys aren't there Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Get some more stands out Clean up one of the areas I hung a stand this year. Needs some work cutting more shooting lanes and clearing some small scrub trees. Scout, scout, and more scouting Get some more cams Still got a little longer before worry about all that. Still need to put some more meat in freezer.
Don't know, tried 3 different brands in different locations. Had AT MOST 2 deer visits a month. Weak sauce.
