I really ought to proof read these things grizz, but I figure what the hell.

I know you will and direct me to my mistakes.

Saves me the time and effort.

As usual, we were planning on going to the farm this weekend to hunt. That all changed yesterday afternoon around five o'clock. Annie and I were working on the grounds here around the house dispatching of some late dropping leaves when we saw him. We first saw the three doe's walking with purpose at...

Thought you might enjoy seeing a couple more bucks taken in Ohio this year. I thought of CF and the fourteen year old hunter when I found out about what this eleven year old hunter harvested this year here in Ohio. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y276/mobicPhobia/worthscoring.jpg This buck was take...

That buck deserves a bigger picture!

When I was a child there were two occasions when my brothers and I adopted and raised abandoned fawns. One was a doe and one was a buck. And both times (we were slow learners) it turned out to be a bad idea. In the beginning they were pretty docile. But just their natural inherent traits proved not ...

The only human foot prints I see in the snow belong to me. Isn't that just the greatest bstout! I also love that feeling. For me it is January hunting when the sounds of the muzzleloaders are just a memory. I usually see more in January then I do during all the combined prior months of the hunting ...

I don't seem to have that problem with mine.

Allow me to state it another way. :D For every one mature (four years or older) buck I put within twenty-five yards of my climber, I will have twenty or more mature doe's within that same distance. And that ratio is for the entire season, rut included. I can kill a big old mature doe without much tr...

A mature doe is indeed smart.

But she is in no way, shape or form a more formidable target than a mature buck.

It isn't even close.

Wood on the deck for the Swede's morning fire in the wood burning stove is always a prelude to winter here at our house.

Funny, that is the same name we "bestowed" on my cousin Francis.

Excaliburs Exocets manufactured circa 2000 had the following specs: Velocity = 270FPS Draw Weight = 165lbs. Power Stroke = 15" Mass Weight = 6.1lbs. Overall Length = 38" Arrow Length = 20" Arrow Weight = 400 Grain Min. Finish = 3 Colour Camouflage Thanks ComfyBear. BIG difference bet...

I would say you have an opportunity here xbhntr to improve the relationship you have with the land owner rather then looking at this as a possible threat to your hunting privileges. Having a discussion with the land owner pointing out that behavior such as that displayed by the poachers is mainly ke...

Mike, I can only get 157 gross out of him. You're right about the tine length killing the score on this buck. It once again goes to show just how difficult it is to crest the 160 inch plateau. So many hunters are so quick to label their bucks or bucks they have seen as 160 class bucks and are very ...

I see he has been taking lessons from you regarding the proper method to pose with a big buck.

I really did think you were going to get this buck CF.

Let us know what he green scores.
