Team 6: Red Sun Rising Official Thread

Thanks guys. I submitted it on the score sheet. Hopefully did it right.

 

Fitz does like you to include a picture of scoresheet or simply type out the measurements. Just edit and add that and you are GTG!!! Congrats again!

 

Well woke up this morning around 4:30 this morning ready to go. Looked at phone and it said wind chill of 7 degrees so I elected to stay in nice warm bed. Maybe not smartest but I'm not sure I'm reay for that sit yet ha. Spent rest of day hauling cows to sale but I'm definitely heading out tomorrow. Thinking probably let the morning go and head out around 10 until dark. Seems to be some midday movement and usually have good luck in afternoon anyway. It'll be close to longest sit I've evrr tried so we'll see ha.

Good luck fellas and stay safe.

 

Hey guys. First off congrats to all the teammates putting points up for the team. I apologize for being quiet lately on the thread. I haven't had much time for anything other than sleep or work. Good luck to all heading out to the woods or fields. I am hoping to squeeze in a hunt this weekend so hopefully I can add a little for the team.

 

No biggy bud...hunt when life allows! Take it all in when ya can!!

 

Updated the post to show the score sheet.

 

No worries. I was the same way for most of the season. Good luck to you.

 

Congrats pops! Very nice. Iv kinda been taking it easy lately. Been working quite a bit and with the time change it makes an evening hunt impossible. I "may" get out this evening, but if not if will be late next week before I can. Still looking for a buck to add to the score.

 

Thanks OKcaveman. Good luck.

 

I see some folks mention putting down the bow.

Does your state have weapon specific seasons?

I enjoy that Indiana allows a person to continue to use their bow during the firearms and muzzleloader seasons. I find it strange that a state wouldn't allow someone to continue on with their bow.

 

We can't use archery equipment during next weekends shotgun and the second one two weeks later. All the rest you cam but you haveta wear orange.

 

Never understood the limitations by other states...This is the first year I will have a gun on Saturday's opener in a LONG time. Gonna have bow too just in case Cuz pistol limits my distance more than even bow.

 

Ahhh pouring concrete in this weather sucks. Been laid down since 9 this morning and still trying to finish it, now with flashlights. Not fun ha ha

 

After it was all done, I started looking back at all the photos/vids I had of this buck. I forgot, I had the video camera with me that morning and pulled it out at one point to get a few seconds of video. Here is a screen capture off that video.


In hind sight, I wish I would have pulled the camera out after he walked away and shot some video of him before I tried grunting him back in. I'm looking into a camera arm for next season. Any suggestions?

 

Muddy seems to be a popular brand for camera arms.

 

Nice work Pops !! Congrats !

 

Thanks. been doing a little research and the seem to be popular for sure.

 

I've been looking at the muddy ones or 3rd arm, I took my camera out for first time in tree stand Wednesday and got a spike on film. Still trying to get everything else I need so been looking at everything ha.

 

BBD! My pops just arrow ed a big one 25 minutes or so ago!!! All day sit at a bow only stand paid off!! Will share pics later he elected for us to keep hunting instead of getting him out as he knows he is dead (30 feet) from tree!!

 

That's awesome Ty, congrats to your dad
