Official Live From the Stand Thread 2023

I am a little concerned with that. So I have plans B and C. I actually believe they will do so and will try and use them to my advantage.

 

FWIW (those that messaged me, I spoke with or been praying)-Still not employed. I’ve been applying for jobs like crazy (probably 150-200 for jobs, most all that I know I’m fully qualified and capable of), but a relatively very small number of interviews.

I should have a third interview with a consulting company later this week. So hopefully a good fit and situation changes soon. This may mean I return to the workforce as a road warrior.

In the mean time, I’ve been laying low…chronic back pain, and just injured a tendon in the forearm/tennis elbow…my pickleball game had been improving, but now I can’t even draw the bow.

Turkey season in 2.5 weeks and I'll be hitting the woods again...

 

I hope you get a great job! As for me I had an interview this morning. Hoping to get a new job.

 

Best of luck on the job search

I hate to hear the job search has drug on this long! Good luck on the birds. If you want to look for some mountain birds, gimme a shout. I know a couple spots.

 

I may do. Won't be the first weekend tho...

 

Our turkey season opens on April 8. I'll try to get one with my bow again, and maybe this year I'll finally pull it off. I should be able to post from where I'm hunting this time, so I got that going for me. I counted 16 in one field out there a couple weeks back while scouting around some private ground. This is the first year I've been excited about turkeys in some time

 

Aren't you in NC? If you check your dates...

 

You are correct. I saw the 2023 dates on the nc hunt app and didn't realize it was for last year. Thanks!

 

Scouted my face off in Ohio on a huge public parcel I moved to last season, I been slowly dissecting areas in a broad way then once I find decent areas I been fine combing them. Found a killer area towards the end of the day and gonna focus on and around it this year and use my area from last as a back up. I have a buck I been after make it through I pulled the card. I couldn’t find his sheds tho. He is in between a new and old spot and traveling through small pine tree groves. It’s a tricky spot but I’m gonna give it a shot. He’s big and I have other big ones on cam too. Here’s some pics of em from a video.

 

I found multiple entrance and exit trails for different winds going into and outa the two pine groves, they lead into tighter timber and I can get to it from a main road with the proper wind on the one sides and other side will be tricky but I can sneak up a creek bed to the one point to hunt it, I found 4 trees and went up them and cleaned out lanes and set them up. Time will tell, planning on another scout trip on Monday.

 

Thats a great buck!

That is a mature big old buck!

 

He’s definitely smart, I got a lot of guys on this cam too and this buck kept skirting around. Looking forward to play cat and mouse this upcoming season.

 

Big bucks exist on public lands. I got piles of proof!

 

Awesome buck man!!! I am jealous of those scouting trips, I wanted to get out a bunch this winter but just didn’t get the time. Don’t think I will get out much at all during the spring with baby boy arriving next week

 

Family first always! Congrats on the new addition the deer will be waiting for ya.

 

I have no idea if this is mega or not but it came from our neighbor and he found a shed…



The saga continues.
