WABI you need to get the Crankaroo;I had to go to it and it is a breeze to use.Saves the body pain.

I got mine at Wallywworld;had it several years now, it has two white led and one red led.I use the red for going up my tree and coming out of the bush.Only cost $9.00

No you can't hunt with dogs, but you can track wounded deer with them,so long as you don't have any weapons will you are tracking.

Yes that sucks when you cant recover a animal after you shoot it.If I shoot a animal and the blood starts to get hit and miss I usually will pull off the trail and let it be for a few hours, but at night I just wait until morning to start the search.If you are in a area high in predators I will wait...

How correct you are Ecoaster;there's always another day.

I agree 110% Saxman;by the way you sound very good on the sax.When I was in school I played the Trombone.

Its about 2 lost and 80 plus deer. Thats for all weapons used;Bow,xbow,Muzzleloader,Rifle,shotgun and pistol.

[quote="LV2HNT"]That realy sucks deerman. I have had so many hunts screwed up by poachers that I expect it to happen atleast once a year now. I hope they get everything they deserve. Did you talk to the guy from DNR yet? I am interested in finding out what happened to them.[/ ote] Yes the ...

Sorry I got a few hot but I guess I didnt get my point across the right way.My area was like a few of yours,everybody including myself several years ago we would shoot any brown deer that moved.After a few years everyone was wondering where all the deer had gone.People would sit for weeks and see ma...

Its usually the people that shoot the young bucks off are the first to bitch about the fact there are no longer any mature deer in the area.And yes in the past I have shot my share of young deer, but now I know what mature deer do for a herd.

Nice Buck!!!! What did he score?You have the same way of cooking backstraps as I do.One step further if time allows, let them soak in your favorite dressing overnight then wrap in bacon and off to the Bar-B-Q.

I really dont understand the logic for shooting yearling bucks.They are the most curious,easyest to kill deer in the woods.Harvest a mature doe,she will yield more meat.Let the teenage buck breed once in his short life.

The answer is no Tye.You will need a smooth bore barrel.You can only shoot sabot's in a rifled shotgun barrel.

Windy days are a good time to hunt corn fields if you have any in your area.Walk into the wind and peek down each row as you cross them.You will find deer sleeping in the corn rows.

I have been out twice this season and have spent about 4 hours in my box blind that overlooks a clover food plot and have seen a total of thirty deer.There are 4 bucks in this group of does.It looks like I will have to thin out some does.The bucks are only 1 1/2 year olds.8 and 6 pts small basket ra...
