    Kinda live Mississippi deer tracking thread

    Good thread, I’ll be following along. A good friend of mine has a pair of Drahthaars that are amazing to watch on a track. I had one of them find a deer for me last year. Long story made short it was a marginal hit, so I backed out to let the dog try before I mucked it up grid searching. We put...

    The 4 Month Bow Hunt: 2nd Edition

    All day on Saturday and Sunday morning I only saw 2 doe. And once again I gave them a pardon. I did get to check my camera at the oak tree in Benton, and was surprised by a significant amount of daytime activity. A couple of days last week I had an eight point come by that I would be glad to...

    Elk .... Let's see them!!!

    A blast from the past that I came across at my parents house this weekend. The only surviving picture I know of from my first Elk 25 years ago, first animal with a bow. I was 15 years old here. I used to wear overalls all the time, more country than cornbread! I wasn’t hunting in them, I guess I...

    Shingles Vaccine

    No vaccine can be as terrible as the ol’ Herpes Zoster! Just imagine having a case start 2 days before you leave for a week long elk hunt… Imagine being one of the unfortunates that have your face affected and your eyesight becomes so blurry you can’t see to shoot your bow clearly beyond 20...

    The 4 Month Bow Hunt: 2nd Edition

    I checked a few cams when I got down this morning. Almost zero daylight activity again this week. Except for this morning. The place I wanted to hunt I chose not to because the wind was wrong. And of course Arnold showed up a little after 7 am. Granted, had I been there I’d have likely never...

    Extra Stupid Window Stickers

    Just stereotyping here but that looks like the type that will always be a “public land assassin” because they’re unlikely to ever secure permission on a piece of private 🤦‍♂️ I can also guarantee every social media post from them probably ends with #hardcore #publicland #saddlehunter #assassin...

    The 4 Month Bow Hunt: 2nd Edition

    This is a big part of my problem right now… I have a love hate relationship with acorns. You can have too much of a good thing at times. On paper you can figure out what tree or general area they’re feeding on and go hunt it and voila the deer will show up. In reality when you have 200+ acres...

    Make Bison Hunting Great Again

    Excellent job, Congrats on an awesome bull! I’ve killed a bunch of bison in a pasture with the benefit of a tractor and front end loader and all the equipment I could ever need and it was still a PILE of work. I don’t envy that job under those conditions, wait a minute, under your circumstances...

    Expert level where’s Waldo

    No shame in the occasional gimme. I killed a spike once under very similar circumstances in Colorado. It was day 6 of a 7 day hunt. All the guys in camp harassed me mercilessly about shooting that “baby road deer” they did not have much to say whenever that was the only tag out of seven tags in...

    Horse Femur - discovered, dated and in my library now.

    That makes more sense, modern horses didn’t arrive back in the Americas until the early 1500s with the Spaniards from what I was taught.

    The 4 Month Bow Hunt: 2nd Edition

    These are a couple of new kids on the block this year. This heavy 8 point with a kicker on the G2 was on one of my brothers properties through the summer but changed zip codes and is now hanging out with me, I’m very Ok with that! He’s a good looking deer. I don’t have a lot of good pictures of...

    The 4 Month Bow Hunt: 2nd Edition

    This buck is another one we decided to let walk last year, he is now on the chopping block. This is the 3rd season I’ve kept tabs on him. We call him Ceasar. We hoped he would grow a bit more but he also hadn’t changed much except adding the new little g4 points. Last year he was a clean 8...

    The 4 Month Bow Hunt: 2nd Edition

    Good grief, I think I’ve forgotten how to hunt. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a season this unproductive. Since the good hunt I had on October 19th I’ve been able to go out 6 more times and have not laid eyes on a single deer! Not a one. Every time I’ve just had squirrely wind, hot temps...

    Oh No Ewe Aren't: Humbled by the Breaks

    So far it looks like, at the very least, even with screw-ups and mistakes included, you probably must have given a good effort and likely didn’t shank the tent so I’m excited to read your story!

    The 25 Year Elk Drought

    Lol I’m missing something, maybe it’s too late at night but I don’t get the Rueben reference?

    Aiming Under Deer

    Can’t answer that exactly, but it seems to me that mule deer don’t react nearly as much as whitetail. I’ve had a couple of mulies looking at me when I’ve released and they’ve never flinched til the arrow was passing out the back side. String jumping happens but in my experience it’s just most...

    "English" bird names, "Offensive or Exclusionary" to change.

    🤦‍♂️ How can anyone be so petty as to be offended by the name of a freakin bird?! Unfortunately one of the biggest problems isn’t the crazy people who demand all this change because they’re always offended, it the spineless cowards in leadership that won’t stand up and put the fringe minorities...
