Congrats. Similar deal for me in Kansas this fall. Left him overnight and he only went about 70 yards. -
Hunting Leases/Kids Hunting/Drury Syndrome
Similar for us. We have 1300 acres that the family hunting club, all family members, leases from the family. We have some owners who don’t hunt, so this gives them some revenue. Our bucks must be two of the three- 16” inside 4” base 19” main beam If a buck doesn’t meet two of three, they...- 3855WIN

Some of the very best blood trails I’ve ever seen have been from 257 WBY. One appeared to have been blood poured from a bucket on a chest shot. -

First offense, they would kick out a member in good standing? A penalty of some sort is understandable, but kicked out of the club for one offense is hard to believe, as mistakes will happen.- 3855WIN

“The neighbor with 20 acres harvested so far 23 deer with only 5 being bucks and only 1 being one of the 6.” These kids are doing y’all a favor. You need some does thinned out.- 3855WIN

It actually does. The hunting on their 20 acres will be terrible and they’ll lose interest.- 3855WIN
