Deer hunting BS thread

Same, TenPoint - Carbon Fusion CLS if I remember correctly. I rarely use the easy draw system on it though. So used to pulling my own string

 

similar system http://www.tenpointcrossbows.com/shop/shopexd.asp?id=473

 

Yeah...nice buck (at top). I've used Ten point also and the only complaint I have is the weight..(they may have lightened them up since...bout 6 yrs ago),but it's accurate as heck! Lot's of piebald deer in Virginia I noticed...always cool to see, but I'm also never prepared or in the right mindset.....I recall actually seeing an albino one that someone shot on the internet somewhere, but never seen one in real life.

 

Theres an EBAY auction for a hunt for piebald and an albino.

 

Finally took my first deer tonight (I'm 21), been trying for the past 2 years as well. Got to take it with my uncle and cousin



Big body on it, and some long spikes. Taken with a winchester model 70 ranger 30-06

 

Nice button lol JK, Good JOB where im from your first deer your covered in blood. Wheres that pic?

 

First attempt ever at a Euro mount. Think it turned out pretty good.

 

Yes this!
When my buddy shot his first deer me and our other buddy tied the nuts around him and the put blood on his face. He hasn't deer hunted since... Haha

 

got this whitetail Sunday, all but 2 front teeth were gone and his molars are ground down to the gum line he is over 10 years old.

22 wide rough scored 144 3/8

 

Norther Louisiana, I was covered in blood about 5-10 minutes after that picture, we were planning on doing all the field dressing elsewhere, ended up changing our minds lol.

Lol, my cousin was smart enough not to try anything when I had a knife in my hand (my knives stay very sharp). We are going back out Friday and Saturday so hopefully I will get another then.

I wanted to take my first deer with my uncle. I've got access to 50 ish acres in North East Tennessee that I am gonna be hunting soon as well.

 

Noice!!!!!

 

uncle killed this buck this morning, 4 pointer completely still in velvet. had no idea why it was still in velvet until the taxidermist (neighbor) checked it out for us. turns out it is actually a doe with horns. told us it was a hermaphrodite

still the craziest deer ive ever seen in november

 

So wait, did it have a peter and balls?

 

had a peter with no testes. crazy AF right

 

LOL! yes that is pretty crazy!

 

heres a pic of the big 8 im after, walked past my stand at 5pm yesterday. lucky me the gf wanted to go shoppin so i wasnt in the woods. been gettin literally HUNDREDS of night pics of him, here lately hes been slippin up and comin during shootin hours.

 

Not here. This has been the weirdest hunting season in a loooong time.

 

they seemed to be lacking that urge they normally do here in WNC. i mean sure, they're rutting some, im finding sign, (scrapes, rubs) also seeing bucks scent check does and chase a little bit. but as far as full blown rut. hell i dont think its came yet. been hunting since sept so i know i aint missed it.

 

doesnt help that our county dropped absolutely NO acorns this year. everybody i talk to having to change setups due to lack of acorns. ive spent more money on corn this year its crazy. didnt even use any last 2 years

 

I'm not a hunter, but would like to get your opinions on something:
I live in NW Connecticut and have 10 ac. I let a neighbor hunt in the back of my land as he hunts the neighbors on either side. A couple weeks ago he got a bad shot on a deer with his bow. Tries to get me to come out and shoot it for him, but it wasn't even on my property.
I give him a ride to get his rifle, and as I am bringing him back out to the back, he keeps sayin, "you can let me out here". I take him all the way back trying to be nice and find he has a big pile of apples out in the field. CT does not allow baiting!
Should I look the other way, give him shit, tell him to stay off my property, or report him?
He is a nice guy, but I have been hearing other stories from the neighbors further down about seeing him chasing a deer through the woods while firing at it. Makes him sound kinda reckless.
What do you guys think?
