I have had my kids out for the youth mentor season / rifle season. we can only have 1 gun between us and we have taken the 243 for them to shot. I was able to hunt for my self today but its about them scoring not me in the rifle season. however if a nice buck comes out while i'm by myself well that may be a different story. I'll try the late season come Dec 26th with my bow. I hope both of my kids score so i can get back out there. Brieanna missed a 4 pt on Monday the first day of rifle season. What a bummer
Still hunting with my bow. Life got pretty crazy for a bit during the one month I wait for all year. But it is game on once again ...I'm just looking forward to more hunting, and continuing to hunt Ohio when Indiana's season goes out. I do not feel as confindent with a gun as I do my bow, that probably sounds crazy to some people.
Bowhunting only here and I will start hitting it hard again in two weeks when muzzleloader only(bowhunting allowed) comes in for 3 days. Around that time the big boys sometimes traditionally become more visible IF they are still alive. I'm looking forward to it.
I have yet to my buck with a bow, As of now im just trying to put a deer on the ground with the shotgun. But i will be chasing that buck with my bow until the first week of February.
Bow only all year for me The only time I would pick up a rifle is if I hunt a friend's ranch and he has nothing set up for bow hunting
Our gun season is over and I didn't score with that either so I just suck. I am back to the bow this weekend even though blaze orange is required due to the ML season. Finally the weather has got better. I was so sick of the 50's crap.
Still bowhunting, I did pick the grandson up at school and spend the afternoon with him in the blind on opening day of rifle season. Had 10 does and 5 bucks to chose from, some as close as 12 yards. He did good, we watched deer for over a half an hour befor he shot one. ]
Great stuff there John!!! Congratulation's to your grandson!! Like Duke said, the hunting and tradition's with your family Is great!! Love the story's and your outlook on hunting. Keep It up!!
Still bowhunting but definitely not going as hard as I had been. I've gotten burnt out. Actually drove to my spot this evening and turned around and came back home. Just didn't feel like it.
