Well, I had a great time hunting with my brother last weekend but didn't come home with anything that would give our team some points. I hope I can do yearly treks with him in the future. We have already set plans in place for an exciting elk hunt during the last week of September '10 in Colorado. Will need to start conditioning now in preparation of that high altitude! Promised my wife to put the bow away - at least until after Christmas. She was starting to give me 'the look'.

Haha. I liked that "the look" part. Did you see anything while you were away? Any good stories or anything?

Ryan.

finally, i get to go bowhunting again this weekend, im getting to where i really hate gun season. Should be able to get out for a few morning hunts and one evening hunt this weekend. We still have 20 acres of corn to get cut(who would have ever guessed that we'd be shelling corn in late december, uhhhg) and my firewood pile is all but completely gone so I do have a few chores to tend to, but will definitely MAKE time to go hunting. I would really like to get a few does shot and hopefully will get a chance at another good buck. Still hoping for cold and snow! Good luck

Clay,

Sounds like you had a good trip to Texas. Just getting out with you brother is worth the trip. I love hunting with family and friends. On Friday were heading out to central pa for a late season pheasant hunting trip with family and friends. Its our third anual trip out their for the states late season stocking. We usually do pretty good. My two friends I grew up with have amazing bird dogs. Dave owns a German Short hair and Matt has 3 English setters. Hey guys, I recently bought a Canon GL2 and plan on doing some video. I have always wanted to try video taping a hunt.

PJ,

Wish I was still hunting with the Bow. In Pa we can only shoot one buck.

Guys if you get a chance check out this video I put on You Tube yesterday. Its a 3D animation of taking apart a Colt 1911. Its pretty cool. We did this about 2 years ago for a corporation we were started. Didn't work out. How about that voice!!!!!!

Take Care, Dave

slow weekend here. no deer seen while hunting but while leaving i did see a nice 8 (130 class) and another buck was with him . they were the same body size but he already shed his horns and had an arrow sticking out of his side. it was in the no kill zone, barely hangn in there. didn't seem to bother him a whole lot though. anybody else still trying? how long you all got left? we go to mid january here.

we have until the beginging of feb., im gonna try to get out a few more times

Our season comes back in after Christmas, i'll be hitting it hard hopefully in those last few days before I move.

Good luck to you guys who are going out though!! Man, we dont got much to chat about this time of the year, I've been going fox hunting a lot trying to get out as much as I can for that, And get the predator population in check, Hopefully in check on the low side ;)

Ryan.

Cool video, Dave. How long does a Video like that take to make?

Ryan.

Ryan,

We hand measured every part of the pistol. We used a program called 3dmax to create the 3D video. It was alot of work. Believe it or not a 3d artist from Russia help us crate the 3D video. I still keep in touch with him. He is a very good person.

Reds,

Good luck hunting. If you get a buck this time of the year it would be amazing.


Dave

Dave,
That's a cool video - the disassembly looks so easy, even a caveman can do it. Well illustrated, and that voice is fantastic! Hope you get a chance to video a hunt or two with that camera this season. Nothing beats having the right equipment. How was the pheasant hunting last week?
Ryan, the hunt in Texas was fun with some good stories, just not suitable for posting on the forum.
Merry Christmas guys. Hope you all have some good family time these next couple of weeks. The season is running short now, so I'll have to figure a time to slip out the back door for some hunting. The kids shouldn't notice that I'm gone. They'll be busy playing all their video games.
