Archery Talk

I have ground blinds too.

 

Yeah, here’s a few I should have passed.

 

Here are a few of the buck from the last few years...In retrospect I shoulda given each at least another year.

Shot this guy as he came into a grunt and some doe-in-heat scent wicks. Came in behind, though he was gonna pass on my left, turned and came to my 5 o'clock. Broadhead got hung up on the tag end of my safety line. So I'm trying to pivot almost 360, untangle my arrow, and he's 15 yards away. Thank God he was focused on doe-tang and not the idiot in the tree having convulsions.




My son shot the one on the left in 2018. And yes both buck were side by side. It was only a 5 point.




My 2018 buck, came into a grunt at 18 yards.



2020 buck. Shot this guy in his bed at 13 yards. Spotted him bedded, worked around and slipped an arrow into him.



Son's buck from 2023. 25 yard shot. Grunted him back twice.



He wasn't able to get out much and I was overjoyed the first time he was able to get out, he arrowed a nice 8pt.

This virtual campfire is a great place. And although I've never met anyone F2F, I consider each and everyone of them my bowhunting partner and would share a camp any day with them. There's a reason for that. I'll let you figure it out.

 

I'm not sure what point you are trying to make. Are you implying none of those bucks were never in a hunters sight before? Unless you are high fence hunting I doubt that. So someone at some point passed on those deer didn't they. Or are you admitting you are high fence hunting?

 

Well expect for me, who stated maybe let that deer grow up. So understand I have no interest in sharing a deer camp with you either.

All this because I said let that deer get another year on him. And everyone goes out of their fucking minds...

 

FUCK OFF…I’ve never and will never hunt high fences. I passed some of those bucks for 2 or 3 years that’s how I kill buck bucks. Not to mention the thousands of dollars I spend every year on owning land and leasing land, food plots, blinds and the manual labor. I don’t know you or where you hunt but you could probably learn a thing or two from someone like me. If you read back far enough you might find that I am a fan of letting little bucks grow. I’ve been hunting for 50 years and I only want to shoot big bucks or does. Shooting small bucks means nothing to me. I can hold out for big bucks because I fortunately live in some of the best whitetail country in the U.S. Others on here respect me and I respect them and what they shoot.

 

Bro just stop. Seriously.

 

Yes.

You don't have to call someone an asshole to be an asshole. Its all in how you say things. Its clear you said it to antagonize and stir the pot. Much different than "thats a great buck man, he'd be a stud in another year."

I guess you forgot what we're talking about? Thats the first that comes to mind.

 

I'm out. Somebody please holler at me if the dude leaves.

 

Still grinding it out. 3” fresh snow. 28 deg…

 

Same here, 8-10 inches of fresh snow and I’m hunting over standing beans. Wanting 1 more doe.

 

Channeling my inner Hank Sr

heeeeeyyyy good lookin, what ya got cookin?

 

Was a fine night!! Saw 15 including two buck. One was a scraggly 4 pt. The other was the one I needed to give another year. Well, last I saw him was 2024 and it's now 2025...close enough. Except he physically wasn't close enough. Some are good with a flintlock at a hunnert yards. I aint one of 'em. Saw a 'yote right at quitting time, about 40 couple yards. Mouth squeaked, he stopped, came towards me a bit then turned. Perfect broadside shot. Except when I raised the T/C Renegade I couldn't see where I was aiming. Hate 'yotes, but they deserve better then that.

 

Great hunt tonight, I saw 30-35 deer and my buddy seen 50-60, having standing beans and or corn is priceless this time of year. I did connect on a nice doe.

 

Woo! Congrats!
