Hi guys and gals. It has been a great year although I am still deerless, the season is not over yet.
Just wanting to wish you and yours, a safe and Merry Christmas.

Just noticed last night when I was out for an evening hunt that it stays very light in the bush very late. I could hardly beleive my watch that it was time to go and l could still see everything clear as day. I see a lot of fresh tracks around my stand but lately can never seem to be there when they...

Well l have decided to just by one. I have checked at our local wallymart, and they have only one there that does not have a gun rail which I would like to have on it. I live close to Kitchener and London, so if any of you know where I can pick one up for around the $100.00 mark please let me know. ...

Thanks guys, I was just trying to be cheap guess maybe l will hit the local wallymart and just pick one up and next year build a condo.

Well seeing I am not one for major hieghts (gravity and I respect one another to much) I am thinking of building a ladder treestand. Has anyone made or found good plans for building a lightweight one?? I have thought about buying a climbing treestand, but most of the trees where I hunt are very larg...

On the wife thing....... just tell her.....

The farm that I hunt has cattle on it. The farmer has an electric fence around the grassing area and I have seen many times the deer come out of the thickets, jump the electric fence and continue on. It has been my experience that they get use to it and treat them like any other fence or obstical.

No we looked for it and could not find it. 3 of us did walk his foot steps for a real distance just to make sure that there was no blood what so ever. There was nothing to be found which makes me feel better knowing it is not just injuried. I think I must have just figured the distance wrong.

I was out last night....came to the edge of a cut corn field and to my suprise, 1 small doe and 1 nice sized 4 pt buck. I laid down prone, and waited, he cam right to me..20 yards, clear shot broadside...LOL - I missed. Arrow went just over his back. He ran about 40 yards and turn around to see what...

Well a nice big buck remined me of the golden rule this morning... I was sitting in my ground blind, and forgot my pee bottle, so I decided to head to another spot to go. I cleared the bush and as I stood getting ready to go, I look up and 25ft from me, broadside, head down eating corn is the buck I...

You have a PM

Well tomorrow is the day we all wait for.....this year will be extra special for me, my 10year old daughter will be joining me :) she is very excited to get up early and head out with dad. We have a special spot picked out and she will be in a popup blind. My wife and l got talking about the camo fo...

thanks......was my first choice, but hate to second guess myself......
good luck to all on Saturday

Well not many sleeps left now........ I have a farmer who has given me permission to hunt the back end of his land, he rents the land out to a produce farmer, who also has given me the go ahead. The field is about 40acres and he is growing pumkins. Now given the choice between hunting a pumkin field...

Hi, this is a little off of the xbow topic, but My daughter who will soon be 10, has been scouting with me, retreiving deer with me for the past few years, is really starting to get the hunting bug :D She has been asking me to teach her how to shoot (she can not handle a xbow....yet), so I am thinki...
