  2. Hunted all day Friday only to see three scrub bucks cruising but not linked up with does. Deciding to stir the pot, I sprayed a can of buck-boner along all the golden rod entry trails to a nearby cornfield. Today there were little bucks harassing doe groups all morning, but no big boys. My brother was hunting nearby and put a crossbow bolt into a doe. Doe ran off and the spike with her became frantic looking for her. Birddogging back and forth for an hour until he found her trail. The doe ran across a swollen creek and died on the other side. Remarkably the spike was able to follow the doe trail across the water and ended up with her again. My brother was shooting a rage and I would have to say I would not recommend that broadhead with a fast crossbow. The arrow entered in the sweet spot behind the crease 1/2 way up and deflected upward coming out the back strap on the opposite side (deer was shot from the ground). Not sure if the spike had relations with the doe before it's death march or after it's passing (hey you have to get it where you can) because after chasing off the spike we noted a slight mess around the lady's special area....... ( my brother promised it was not from him).
  3. Young bucks definitely cruising. I saw a couple crossing fields while driving down I -90 early afternoon.
  4. It would appear she is guilty of reminding folks it is a class C felony in the state to vote twice.

  6. Ya.....not quite understanding this one either. These days you can't believe anything. CNN skews news to benefit democratic candidates, Fox news makes up stuff and skews news to benefit republican candidates, and the president is liar. Hold your kids close.
  7. A few small bucks cruising in am and pm sessions. Sat all day. This rain has them in a depression
  8. I am spending my time adorning my hat with leaves.
  9. Slooooowwwww
  10. Are the cows in the fields laying down?
  11. Saw one small buck so far at 8:30. Does I think have gone into hiding. New rubs and border scrapes showing up.
  12. They became available yesterday.
  13. .......got to go, see ya.
  14. Cool deer congrats
  15. Always bitter sweet being tagged out. When it’s spitting rain sideways and cold, you will be inside by a warm fire making sausage.
  16. 1.5 miles is nothing to a buck.
  17. Martriculating three year olds.
  18. Good luck with your search.
  19. Sans the spine and major vessels, there is a lot of muscle-only areas in the neck. A bullet has a different effect of course.
  20. Unless the arrow ran up the length of the neck, you would have seen arrow sticking out the other side ( you stated no pass thru).
  21. How far did the arrow penetrate? Base of the neck has lots of non-vital areas of muscle only. If that is where you hit him and the arrow fell out, he probably will live.
  22. Lots of pike up at Olcott this year also.
  23. What year class were you catching?
  24. I hunted Darien Lake St Pk .....probably for the last time. Second year in a row I got peppered. Three guys with no dogs walking thru soybeans shooting at moving plants. Got two birds but had to work at it as high winds the night before and the lack of cover due to poor timing of grass cutting, put them in hedgerows. Went around Alabama today knowing it was opening of duck season and had the fields to myself. Proud papa as my rescue project dog flushed my bird, tracked where it fell then pinned the dead bird til I walked over. Not bad for a ratterrierpitbullpointerthingofamabob.
  25. Were you offshore near the elbow in the fence?
