On the drive home last night I saw a field that looked identical. Somewhere between 15-20 geese. I sent him a pic of that too! He doesn't like to let facts get in the way of a good narrative. He's kinda like a democrat I reckon!
Corn stalks with a cover crop? I have a buddy who swears that doesn't work; has to be shelled corn stalks with nothing else. I will be showing him this pic! Congrats on two fine days!
Back in 2D with the flintlock. Been in all day and haven’t seen a thing. Frustrating but better than the couch. Still have a couple hours plus tomorrow morning. Fingers crossed.
I was only able to hunt last Thursday and Friday. Normally see 30-60 deer (obviously that's probably a lot of the same deer being seen multiple times) in an all day sit on our farm in 2D. In 17ish hours of hunting I only saw 8 deer, no shooters. Several factors to consider on why that was...
Beautiful dog. I'll second bobbydean; not sure how you foster dogs. I'd have 1,000. That's actually my win the lottery goal, to have a dog rescue. Vizslas are awesome. My buddy has one and it is just the coolest dog. He does not use it to hunt. On the rescue topic, does anyone have...
This sucks. I had an experience this year where I got beat to the spot I was planning to go to. Guys didn't seem friendly so I just moved on to another spot. Another truck was there as well. Told him what my plans were and that I had 2 buddies on their way (I'm the early riser, spot claimer...
I shot a couple when I lived in Georgia and not getting one mounted is a huge regret. Luckily there are some in Ohio so I may be able to make it right.
This is funny. I'm a teacher and baseball coach, one buddy does crossfit (yea, he's batshit crazy), the other is a farmer. I keep bitching about getting older, but when it comes to hunting I'll walk through hell in a gasoline suit (nod to Pete Rose if I am not mistaken) if I think it will help.
This right here!! I am reading and re-reading all of this stuff, there's just too much to respond to!!!!! lol. Thank you guys so much. This has been tremendously helpful!!!!! F250 said to start on the repeated advice. That's where I am going. Again, I cannot thank you all enough. This was...
We have definitely, after replaying some instances, not shot when we should have, hoping for them to come even closer. I am sure some of our hesitation can be chalked up to never having hunted with a season veteran.
This has been one of our theories as well. I think we take that for granted sometimes because, and I may be completely wrong, I feel like you can get away with more movement than say, deer hunting.
