I’m in the stand. I’ve got two doe tags that expire Friday night. I’d like to fill em. I’m flinging an arrow at the first doe I see Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
Mind if I ask what ammo you used? Looking for a good deer round for my son's .357 Haven't had a chance to try them out on a lot of deer yet to see how they perform.
Dang you can tell gun season opens Saturday. . It's been bang,bang,bang.....non stop since the weekend. Doesn't anyone work any more????? Beautiful 50'S I'm finally relaxed and comfortable out here. Please MA nature send me a deer to shoot that hasn't just weaned ....
Seeing I'm relaxed,I have time to ponder things like strange things noticed this season. No doe with fawns here at home. Lots of fawn an way more male than female. No raccoon, just one fox. No skunk seen. Then there is the massive flocks of cowbirds and starling none. Now that is really strange. Come to think of it fewer geese and snow geese and duck fly overs. We live in their fly way surrounded by lakes What different things have you noticed?
This will teach me to be a bit more specific on my requests. .2 yrd when he walked by...lol Panting hard. Crotch 4pt.
On this day last year, I shoulder shot a buck right at this little green sapling that’s closest to the camera. Was looking at my memories and noticed that. Never got another picture of him after early January. Last I know of he was 600 yards from here, at my old house. I think he died of infection or something. Still haunts me Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
Hey no problem. This one was a Federal 158 gr jacketed soft point. Under 20 yards, I always get pass throughs. I imagine that could be said for farther shots but I keep mine at that range. The eyes are getting older... This shot was not the best. Too high on entry and it came out the back portion of the off shoulder. Definitely had better blood trails. A buddy had given me some hard cast lead rounds he hand loaded that I took a few deer with. I did like those. When I retire, I am getting back into reloading. By then, I should be able to find powder. Lol
1 more day if work and I'll be all pumpkined out in the woods. Kinda curious what an eight day soak on the scrape cam has. I'm probably not going to be overly choosey this weekend. May save my buck tag until Thanksgiving day and weekend then brown and down. Just have to see how I'm feeling when a deer shows up.
My Son shot a 7pt at camp this afternoon. He was using his FIL compound,GOD rest his soul he passed this summer. I could not be more stoked for him.
