Deer hunting BS thread

Awesome deer. Congrats to her!

 

Awesome! Looks like he's from the same gene pool as the one Cole shot. Has the 3rd main beam growing?

 

congrats to her, and you as well Dad !!!!

 

Same gene pool, same hunting spot too! The third main beam looks almost identical as the one Cole shot

This is the only deer we saw yesterday, he walked 5 yards by the blind, she shot him at 60 yards and hit him low in the spine. He didn’t go anywhere and she didn’t mess up any meat

 

That deer broke his brow tine off his good side and a tine off his rooster side. We called him rooster

 

Congratulations to your daughter

And Happy Belated Birthday

 

Muzzleloader hunted this year for the first time in years. Shot nothing but my phone camera and had a ball just watching. I got to see a yearling fawn nurse last night for the first time. Young bucks trying to get a doe just to be rejected.
When I was younger I measured my hunting success by the number of kills I made. Anymore I just enjoy my time in the woods.

 

Rifle season opened here yesterday, seen some movement. Also temps dropped so should get them moving more. Saw one doe out back at last light, could have popped her but going to see what shows up.

 

Built a new Deer rifle so looking forward to trying it out. Well, it’s a rifle I can hunt with also but to damn heavy to use regularly I’ll go back to the Browning

 

Didnt want to share till i knew the outcome. an older guy from my church hunts the mountains not far from where we hunt. its big mountains. well he never came out last evening. search teams searched all nite. it got down to 30* with 20 mph winds. wasnt looking good. Well Praise to our God. they found him alive and well. he is diabetic and his sugar dropped. got disorented,so hunkered under low hanging white pine with leaves and limbs pulled up like a nest. limited pics to protect his privacy. And my oldest is still in the woods now with a nice bow kill down. damn thing wont die. its not going anywhere and waiting for it to expire. what a day. getting more cancer cut out tommorow. will be back hunting by Thurs. good luck all. one pic is a game warden friend of ours. cuffing him so he doesnt get lost again

 

Sweet. So glad she got another chance..

 

Glad he made it home!! And congrats to your kid!!

 

Saw this posted elsewhere and was thinking of you guys finding him.
I always take stuff with me in case…. He should know better..

 

Condradulations to her and a good dad to teach her. Awsome Deer

 

Glad he is ok.
Good luck on The cuts

 

Hunting farmland not a issue but when im out in the mountains i always carry stuff just in case myself. Also use onXhunt gps app. mark the truck when i go in even though i dont go as deep when i was younger Mike.never know when you may need it.

 

I always ping my truck also and a do a 180° heading..

 

I do at least 2 to 3 expedition hunts a year for +/- 5 days at a time. Almost always my garmin 64st with the onx goes out from the cold sometime during a trip. So I stay old school and keep a map, protractor and compass. I use the gps if a land is in question, but I pretty much do all navigating (glass points, bivy points, animal pos, non-trail paths, plotted points, reverse azimuth) stuff like that.

I would learn this as it’s the most reliable way to go if you venture into deep to places and far off any beaten path.

 

My oldest son finally got in.Bow kill at dark during our muzzleloader season.
