Hi Planter, No we do not practice QDM simply because I don't know what is involved. My hunting mate and I discussed researching that very thing this year and will start to execute next year on the big farm (400). The deer yard farm is not my regular spot and I only was able to get permission the las...

I must admit I enjoy the way RJ writes his stories so I wanted to use his style to tell mine (thanks RJ) October 1 - I take opening day off work every year and hunt some food sources that I have scouted good activity late summer early fall. This farm is 5 mins from my house and is a 400 acre goldmin...

Some fresh doe in the freezer good stuff.

It's light,compact and fast. I really like mine and find it comfy for up to 3 hours. The summit is much more comfortable but it's massive and requires a little more set up time. I'm 5"9 170lbs and it suits me well but if you're a bigger guy it might not be the best.

Smile boys this isnt a passport photo Congrats

Cool videos. What camera are you using?

I went out quickly this morning and had to be back by 8:30 but wished I could have stayed until 10 at least. I used a scent drag and decoy this morning and had 2 different bucks follow my scent drag part way and then leave the field both in the same place. I had scarface set up as a doe and both buc...

I'm in 80 around Baden/Plattsville area and saw bucks earlier this week running pretty hard but would agree its lock down right now. If it could get a little colder we would see more day movement is my guess. I am having success hunting food sources at night right now and seeing bucks just before da...

Can't get pic to work sorry. I followed the instructions posted but something isnt working.

Sorry removed topic

My guess would be it hasn't started in my area 80. I have seen does with fawns the last couple days hunting but no bucks. The does seem to be feeding like normal and no bucks show up to check them out. I have had some rubbing and scraping but that is typical pre-rut behavior. I live outside the city...

I prefer to take dry does and leave the ones with little ones go (they are proven reproducers already) I took a nice fat one opening night and now can pick and choose. Someone in this post from Waterloo Region said he can take 4 in his WMU this year. I understand 3 is the limit this year in Ontario....

Awesome story and pictures once again RJ. The build up almost had me thinking big buck down! Congrats on the nice doe you will not be starving this year. I cant imagine a little runny nose will keep you out of the woods. I went out my way last night in Baden and had 13 deer on my stand. A healthy mi...

For pictures with my game cameras I use Deer Cane - I use the powder that mixes 2 sites ($12 avg at the store) It lasts about 2 months and they dig it up. I will take a picture next time I go in to check cameras. I had 92 pictures in 7 days with my latest mineral spot (it was only 2 weeks old) I hav...

It works now
