  2. ahh same deer small 4 pt and 6 pt then a big spike yup BIG body 2plus yrs ..really cool rack maybe 12 in long think horns and layed the contour of his head and stuck up between his ears sorta looked like something from Africa ..had to be 175 to 200 lb deer, he was coming straight to me when a doe stuck her head out 60yds behind him he cought a wiff of her turned and went straight away.. all bucks showed their faces from 930 to 1030,doe too. The big boy is still running in the dark tho he might slip up soon . But I will take that spike outa the heard if i get a chance first.plenty of meat for jerky,not that I dont want another big rack ,but those really goofy ones are pretty cool, ill guess his ears are at least 17 to 18 inches tip to tip.hopeI can get him youll think its pretty cool...

  7. Sweet success ...good for you....I had a simular exp. yrs ago got the portable set put on the strap(before harnesses were heard of) pulled the bow up nocked a arrow did one last scan before setteling in and like majic a nice 8 pt was crunching acorns at 10 yds never heard it never saw it, getting ready for the hunt.drew back and it was over in the same amount of time as you. Well except the heart part he walked 100 ft stood there and tipped..Only thing i can think is he thought i was a squirrel playing with my nuts and never looked up.. ....during the 2 min walk and waiting for him to drop a beauty of a 10 pt comes in 20 yds and starts to make a scrape...........the one time in my life i wished i had a clean miss... Some times when new guys read a story like these they think it happens often..well it dont and in 40 pluss YEARS of hunting ive only had the experiance a few times (gun and bow).. I always start the hunt at the quiet close of the car door,no talkin no agressive walking and totally in the hunt scan ,Ive spotted many a deer well before the stand area ,and have filled my tag more than once enroute..it can happen (deer encounter) at any time any place..so be ready 100% of the time yup 100% I could tell ya some um er well ya know after the long walk ya gotta go some where ....yes even when ya got yer guard ((and pants) down it can happen tho I ant never shot one off the crouch ive seen a few snickering at me.......STUPID DEER!!
  8. when i tried powerbelts i was ready to toss the gun through the stors window 6in or worse groups at 100 yds..... ;;; the hornadays with 240 gr with 100 gr triple 7 put me in 2 in groups at 100 and 4in at 150
  9. 2doe and a bear all to far not that I have any intrest in wackin a doe,but that bear got me thinkin it was bigger than my 300 lbr ,,,,maybe tomorrow ill make some bacon and rub the grease all over me .......mmm might have to make a beeline to the stand tho.... good tip gill thats exatly what i did this morning only about 100 yds and on the oppsite wind side of trail....hops its not the decent 8 i saw opening day,maybe tomorrow will tell got 2 in of new snow on the hill tonight and still snowing so he should be cleaning em up tonight or hopefully tomorrow might be a long sit .......break out the heat packs..
  10. every situation is a taD DIFF. mom spookin deer sound or smell not a huge issue 3 days is usually a safe bet ,,,BUT for 2 days straight ive seen a dead buck each day along rt 86 (big flats area) SO THEY ARE GETTIN BUMPED TO NEW GROUND Or SOME CHASING IS ON,did see a small spike gettin his hopes up with a doe today and 2 new ground scrapes near stand....sooo maybe he will be a little stupid might be ok tonight but dont move only to breath and play the wind 100% cause he will be...... now if ya got spotted and winded ya might have some issues with that stand and a mature buck or doe, they will be checkin the stand from afar and might totally change their daytime travel route BUT DONT BE TOO DISSAPOINTED yes what i just said is the" norm" but ya never know!!! ,,not to mention these might not be the mature buck for the area and ya just chased away a 2nd set of eyes that might alert the big boy in your favor..try to find the positive for each encounter and build on that ....DONT hang yer head low,, and learn from encounter............now I could tell ya many heartbreakers stories and situations that would make the average hunter use his bow for wheel chocks or firewood...yup suck it up ,and chalk it up to experiance...if we quit fishing after the first breakoff or bad net job i guess we would be 2 more couch potatos. now im off to sit in a tree in the rain to hope to see the smasher that winded me at 7 yds (behind heavy brush).......do I think ill just go their and he will come ?????????????....NO....... but my chances of him comming through the window and landing on the couch beside me is the least likley to happen..Hmm rain ,wind ,and snow,,,or sit on the couch..............hmmm HONEY HAND ME MY GRUNT CALL AND PUT ON SOME POPCORN....jst kiddin im outa here.............
  11. Ive got a 750 grain lead mold if ya load it up with 25 gr. powder it should make it 150 yds.
  12. FUNNY WHEN I THINK of something waterlogged i sorta envision some thing all swelled up,and big...opps um er ...........HEY HAPPY BIRFDAY !!!

  19. i ant got o idea what happened to above pics.... my friend woonded this one yesterday bad gut shot he called me to track it after jumping it twice....after i located it I belly crawled for 2 hours to get close enuf to grab its horns and pinned it to a tree till he arrived to finish it off it was still very very strong and i dont recomend this to any novice hunter they can and will tear you up if ya make one mistake ....DONT TRY THIS AT HOME:::::
  20. ok many of these are the old way of stalking......but many heard a grunt or a rattle(tink) before my ageing eyes picked em out .....most have a story connected to them that could rival any hunting mag. story...maybe we need a story page for some of us old farts to share some history.. yea ive got some small ones too and many are missing that ive cut for tinking horns,and to the neighborhood kids
