Deer hunting BS thread

I might be out of town that weekend. When I find out for sure ill let you know. If I'm gonna be out of town I won't make to the meet either. So that kinda sucks

 

Not a deer but some elk sheds I found. Rough scored them last night at 346 3/8 By far my best set

 

Aight. We'll try to get somethin worked out. What pistol were you carryin when we went?

 

Well, as I was gettin out of my stand this evenin, I heard something walking in. It never would come out to where I could see it. It was like 5:40, so it was basically too dark to shoot anyway. I got on down and took a couple steps and heard it take off. Peckerhead waited til RIGHT AT dark to come in. As I was walking down the trail back to the truck, I heard something walking around, and shined my light towards it. I THINK it was a doe. Not 100% sure. It had to be the same one that was walking in on me. It was coming down the same trail that the buck I shot and couldn't find (Which I think is still alive) came in, as well as several other deer I've seen in there this year.

Next time I'm in there (probably Sunday evening) I'm gonna set up in a different tree that is about 60-70 yards back towards the truck from where I've been sitting. I won't be able to see the flat I've been hunting most of the year, but it seems like more of them are using this trail anyway. Maybe I can cut them off before dark. There were a few new horned bushes in there this evenin, too. Starting to get frustrating since I can only go 1 day a week now.

 

Well i only saw one doe tonight. I was a little bored at my house so i decided to post up some pictures of a few of the bucks me and my dad have killed

Heres our hat rack haha












This is the rack in our garage. On the bottom rack the right half of it is all the bucks ive killed. The rest are my dads

 

Here is the buck i killed last year and had mounted



and then one more of my dads

 

lot of nice bucks showing up in this thread.

 

finally made my way to an actual computer. having an iphone does have its disadvantages.

my first bow buck from 2010


10pt from archery season this year


my sons 9pt he killed in rifle season


all 3 of those deer came from the same hill. anyone thats spent any time in the mountains of central PA knows thats kinda tough to kill 2 bucks the same year on the same hill that are mature. saw the buck my son shot the night i shot the 10pt. never got a real good look at him that night but im 99% sure its the same buck.

 

Pictures from camp.

another angle of the front wall.

the other side of the room. This wall were all taken with a bow.

Unfortunately, none of the mounts are mine. They all belong to guys I hunt with.

 

Careful hangin mounts above heat. It might curl the cape

 

Gettin ready to go sit for a few hours in a new spot. Fresh scrape and a ton of acorns left

 

We never use the stone fireplace. There is a wood burning stove out of view that we use to heat the camp.

 

My view for the next 2.5ish hours

 

I'm in a new spot today. Every time it seems when I walk past this area deer are always crossing here. So I got in the stand at 3 hopin they will be comin soon. We will see

 

Had a pretty good weekend. Got 2 does and a small 6pt. Wasn't too bad for south ga. Everything's kinda small but should give me some good meat. Didn't get any pictures of the last doe. Got her right as the sun went down and had to drag her out of the woods in the dark so no pictures.

 

I miss the opportunity on a nice buck last night. I saw 8 deer last night. A nice buck stepped out to my right at 5:40. And I'm a right handed shooter so when I'm sittin in a climber and tryin to shoot to the right its difficult. But I got turned so I could shoot but he went straight to the cut down and didn't wanna shoot him in the butt so I let him walk
