    Ben's 2022 Semi-live Hunt Log

    I went out to the stand I have been hunting by my parents house on Saturday. It was nice to get back out there after two weeks. Although I head something go running off as I was getting to the little band of shrub trees in front of my stand. I pulled the card from my trail camera and saw that it...

    Favorite Arrow?

    Just to cap off this thread. Good old number 3 did it again Friday on a doe in Ohio. That's the 4th deer it has taken. Sadly it is also the last. Number 3 got hung up on the offside shoulder and snapped off inside and went to that big quiver in the sky. I guess I am going to have to train up a...

    I'll wrap up this hunt with these thoughts on why this hunt was so successful in my eyes: * My buddy the new hunter had some exciting encounters and is excited to help me cut up my doe. * He found a deer rich environment that he can hunt and share his experiences with family in the future. *...

    It's a good thing I saw her go down too. because there was no blood trail. I guess she was quartering away a little more than I had planned on and my arrow should have been a little further back. It went in right where you would want it to , but it got stopped by the offside shoulder and...

    With about 45 minutes left before sunset, I see a doe headed my way and then I see another and another deer behind her. I was hoping that one of them would split off and head toward my buddy. This is his second hunting season and I would really like him to get his first deer. I lose track of...

    Ben's 2022 Semi-live Hunt Log

    We were back in the woods around 1:30 that afternoon and I was really happy with the set up I made with my saddle. I have been wanting to get into saddle hunting and I have had the gear for 3 years now, but I've only used it a handful of times. I initially bout the Stepp Ladder system for...

    I got back from Ohio yesterday and I will be busy making meat today, but I wanted to write this up before I get all messy. So here's the story. We got to my buddy's family farm just after dark on Thursday and his uncle took us on a little drive to show us where the woods are that we could hunt...

    Hey a Honda Pilot. I love my Pilot. I'll probably go back to a truck once my girls are out of High School, but my pilot is enough like a truck that I almost don't notice the difference. Good luck in OK.

    Heading East tomorrow at 11 am. I have to put in a half day, which means starting at 6 so I can get 5 hours in before I leave... Hope to get to our spot in Ohio just before last light so we can at least get an eye on where we will be hunting Friday and Saturday. Still have a bit of packing to...

    Fire Starters from Wax and Dryer Lint

    Dryer lint, old crayons and saw dust in a cupcake liner, bake it in the oven for a little bit so the crayons melt and then let it set up in the cupcake liner. That's what I do. of course I have a lot of raggedy broken crayons from when my kids were little.

    Well while everyone else in Illinois was out hunting the rut with a nice cold front to boot and posting pictures on Facebook of the shooter they met or the target buck they finally put an arrow through, I was on a plane flying to Rapid City, South Dakota for my cousin's wedding. It was a great...

    Ben's 2022 Semi-live Hunt Log

    I got out to the stand on Saturday at about 2:30. The rain was pretty much over but it was still very gusty. I tried going up in the tree, but it was too wild for me so I built a little bit of a ground blind. I'm glad I took the time to do that, could probably use some more work, but it is a...

    I was out Sunday morning and I had a lone deer walk by my stand at 20 yards or less about 10 minutes before legal shooting light... Couldn't tell what it was but I think it was a buck. About an hour later I saw a doe and two fawns about 60 yards away on the other side of the creek. I think an...

    I'm finally done with Marching Band Season for my daughter so I will have a little bit of freedom to hunt again. I'll get out for a morning hunt this Sunday. And I might get out for a full day or even a couple days the first weekend in November. I have a wedding in Rapid City SD November 12th...

    oh yes. If that hen comes anywhere near me now I can try to put an arrow through her.

    I'm not sure what you are talking about. You can't hunt Sandhill Cranes in Illinois. And the Goose season in Illinois doesn't start up again until a little later in October.

    Ben's 2022 Semi-live Hunt Log

    I went out on Sunday morning. I was hoping I would hear some turkeys coming off the roost, but I think they must be roosting about a half mile to the west because I didn't hear anything. I did hear a LOT of geese and some Sandhill Cranes. All in all it was a beautiful morning. I saw a doe and a...
