    The 4 Month Bow Hunt: 2nd Edition

    I guess I need to check back in and put this one to bed. I quit updating because I didn’t have anything positive to say lol. It was the worst most frustrating deer season I have seen in over 25 years. I saw less deer than I have in at least a decade. All the good bucks from early on were known...

    2023 Hunttalk Thread of the Year

    I missed the whining that apparently has killed the talkies, such a shame, I come and go in cycles around here and miss a lot. However, I do vote the offenders at least be listed in the Matt Rinella thread so they can be given the same treatment as the other thirsty influencers. Sounds like they...

    Ameristep- 20 ft. Stick ladder

    That’s a steal for someone, I’d love it but Bossier City Louisiana is a tad too far from Billings!

    MT District 302 lost Archery Elk found - Medicine Lodge

    Whether you’re using a rifle, bow, or slingshot it’s obvious there are clowns in every genre of shooting. While butchering my bull that I killed with a BOW this September I found lead fragments low down in his brisket and he had a divot in the backstrap with lead fragments from a bullet that...

    My second buck of a lifetime.

    Congratulations on an amazing deer! Hunting can definitely expose our selfish tendencies. It’s good that you can recognize when you’re pushing the limits of what’s acceptable. I know to many guys who don’t recognize it and don’t care. You’re also blessed to be able to put in the time that it...

    Mule deer in heavy timber

    Get in there and hunt them from a treestand like whitetails. I’ve killed several that way under those conditions. Yes critter density is low and I’ve sat for days without seeing a thing sometimes, but sometimes it comes together and makes it all worthwhile.

    The 4 Month Bow Hunt: 2nd Edition

    Alright. I’ll be honest, I’m not even having fun this season. What started out looking like it was going to be a great year has gone downhill fast. Since my last check in here I have been able to hunt a good bit, I have moved cams all around, taken down and put up multiple treestands etc. My...

    Do you get tired?

    I never stop because of it, but boy do I ever get tired of it some years. I’ve got 4 straight uninterrupted months of deer season every year and by the time January 31st rolls around I’m always worn to a nub. Every spare minute I can squeak out I’m in the woods, my thoughts are in the woods even...

    Sunrise/Sunset table

    I don’t know if you can or not, I only use it in a duck blind where sounds didn’t matter. When I’m deer hunting etc I don’t ever look at shooting times. I bet unless you have your volume way up it won’t matter.

    Sunrise/Sunset table

    If you need sunrise sunset times for calculating exact legal shooting time load the Ducks Unlimited app on your phone. It has all that on there based on your current location. Example: At 6:17 tomorrow morning, 30 minutes before sunrise, the red will turn to green, giving you the go ahead to...

    Kinda live Mississippi deer tracking thread

    Good thread, I’ll be following along. A good friend of mine has a pair of Drahthaars that are amazing to watch on a track. I had one of them find a deer for me last year. Long story made short it was a marginal hit, so I backed out to let the dog try before I mucked it up grid searching. We put...

    The 4 Month Bow Hunt: 2nd Edition

    All day on Saturday and Sunday morning I only saw 2 doe. And once again I gave them a pardon. I did get to check my camera at the oak tree in Benton, and was surprised by a significant amount of daytime activity. A couple of days last week I had an eight point come by that I would be glad to...

    Elk .... Let's see them!!!

    A blast from the past that I came across at my parents house this weekend. The only surviving picture I know of from my first Elk 25 years ago, first animal with a bow. I was 15 years old here. I used to wear overalls all the time, more country than cornbread! I wasn’t hunting in them, I guess I...

    Shingles Vaccine

    No vaccine can be as terrible as the ol’ Herpes Zoster! Just imagine having a case start 2 days before you leave for a week long elk hunt… Imagine being one of the unfortunates that have your face affected and your eyesight becomes so blurry you can’t see to shoot your bow clearly beyond 20...

    The 4 Month Bow Hunt: 2nd Edition

    I checked a few cams when I got down this morning. Almost zero daylight activity again this week. Except for this morning. The place I wanted to hunt I chose not to because the wind was wrong. And of course Arnold showed up a little after 7 am. Granted, had I been there I’d have likely never...

    Extra Stupid Window Stickers

    Just stereotyping here but that looks like the type that will always be a “public land assassin” because they’re unlikely to ever secure permission on a piece of private 🤦‍♂️ I can also guarantee every social media post from them probably ends with #hardcore #publicland #saddlehunter #assassin...

    The 4 Month Bow Hunt: 2nd Edition

    This is a big part of my problem right now… I have a love hate relationship with acorns. You can have too much of a good thing at times. On paper you can figure out what tree or general area they’re feeding on and go hunt it and voila the deer will show up. In reality when you have 200+ acres...

    Make Bison Hunting Great Again

    Excellent job, Congrats on an awesome bull! I’ve killed a bunch of bison in a pasture with the benefit of a tractor and front end loader and all the equipment I could ever need and it was still a PILE of work. I don’t envy that job under those conditions, wait a minute, under your circumstances...
