Archery Talk

Like I’ve said before, it’s the only thing keeping me in this shitty state!

 

Congrats to the young man!

 

i feel sorry, poor kid has to go thru life with that fucked-up face....

 

French Lick Indiana area is where I hunt.

 

I've only been hunting a handful of years, but a couple years back, I thought I'd find more deer if I walked 2 miles in to the woods. It took doing that twice and walking back to the truck only to find fresh deer turds within 100 yds of the truck, before I stopped trying to walk the furthest into the woods. I didn't really understand topography then, and realized it did be no good to blowout 2 miles worth of woods at the very beginning of season walking up and down ridges through 2 hardwood bottoms verses just sitting 80 yds from the truck over a ridge with a shelf the deer walk daily... Of course this only seems to pay off early season before they pattern a truck coming in every 6-7 days to park lol. But sure beats what I was trying to do, and yields better results at that. Sometimes those closest trees are the best ones!

 

New buck from yesterday’s card pull.

 

Thats not the one you passed up is it?

 

No, this is the one I passed Sunday and I seen him again this morning.

 

yeah, I dont blame ya, I wooda let it pass as well

 

I hate to tell ya but if he heads east for about 12 hours he won't be getting no pass in Virginia

 

Think he could make it there in 12 hours?

 

Let me know if you get him.

 

Depends on if anybody else is shooting at him on the way

 

Got service for a sec

 

Hunting with a filbe? Lol

 

the view....

 

That’s a new guy that’s with me on this trip. Father in law was military so he is using some of his gear. That pack is massive lol

I’m rocking a mystery ranch frame day pack and KUIU’s big pack for longer trips

 

Good luck brother!! Was wondering how you were doing...

Picked up a Kuiu Venture 1800 Daypack with internal frame during their sale. 50% off. I think if I did a load out right I could do a 2 night stay with it. wish it wasn't as long and maybe a bit wider. I understand why it's narrow, but two inches or so shorter and two inches wider, would suit me better.

 

I got a mystery ranch pintler. Actually I got a few mystery ranches hunting packs. I have the Marshall and some older one. I run the exo mountain k4 7800 for some of my expeditions hunts.
