    Kinda live Mississippi deer tracking thread

    I've had three with little to no blood trail. Fortunately I saw each of them fall. In one case, the lung deflated and stopped up the exit wound so no blood came out. In another the arrow stuck in the offside shoulder and then broke off, entrance wound was high so there was no blood coming out of...

    Kinda live Mississippi deer tracking thread

    These were very interesting stories. Thanks for sharing them. I feel like I learned a lot. I have shot 5 deer and never had trouble finding them but this is a reminder that I have been pretty lucky and I this provides a lot of insight into what happens when deer don't go down within sight. Keep...

    Ben's semi-live 2024 hunt thread

    It's Tim e to start the 2024 hunt thread. I went out yesterday for coyote. I really don't know what I am doing, so my strategy it just to be out in the woods and hope that my call will bring one in. So far I have been unsuccessful and this year was no different. But I got to spend some time...

    Seeth's unexpected FULL fall of "good" hunts

    Hear me out on this one. You need to add on to the house with a room big enough to hang that trophy. I know you're thinking that is too much expense for just to hang one elk, but honestly you will need more space next year and or the year after that and after that, etc. It's really a wise...

    I forgot about that. My family doesn't eat heart so it is a delicacy just for me.

    Frostline Kits?

    I have been saving down from ducks and geese I have shot. I was hoping I could some day make a vest or a coat. So far I have been unsuccessful in finding any info on how you make a vest or jacket to hold the down.

    Ben's 2023 Semi-Live Hunt Log

    I know I said this thread was wrapped up, but this story involves the killing of an animal and I don't think I want to "start" my 2024 thread this this story. Technically my 2023 archery deer and turkey tags are still valid until tomorrow, but I knew I needed to stop early because I had to do a...

    Ben's 2023 Semi-Live Hunt Log

    I had a nice hunt on Saturday with some unexpected snow on the ground. I love being out when there is snow on the ground. Had a lot of turkey noise by the creek and I needed up getting as close to the creek as I could, in hopes that the turkeys would come up into the woods at some point. At...

    Ben's 2023 Semi-Live Hunt Log

    I went out yesterday with my nephew. We were out in the morning in a spot where I have shot 3 deer. It was where I saw the turkey sign a few posts ago. I was really hoping we would see turkeys and deer but mostly I was looking forward to hanging out with my nephew. He lives in Sweden so I...

    Ben's 2023 Semi-Live Hunt Log

    I ended up hunting alone this morning. My buddy had a funeral he had to go to. He certainly didn't miss much in terms of the hunt. I had about 10 ducks circling around at first light, but they ended up landing to the east of me. Then I had 1 come in and I shot at it and thought I brought it...

    Ben's 2023 Semi-Live Hunt Log

    The stitches are out and the doc said I can't do anything to make it worse aside from the same type of accident. So my hunting season is back on. I'm headed out Saturday morning for a waterfowl hunt. If I can get a duck and a goose I will have completed my season slam. It will be my only chance...

    Greatest Shot Ever--A Thread--Post Your's

    I grew up around hunting but not actually hunting. In college, I started getting into it, but I felt like I was a little behind the curve because I didn't know how to shoot and most of my hunting experiences were pheasant hunts with large parties. I shot and pheasants died, but I never knew if I...
