Check for bees in that hollow tree next to you

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!! NOW THATS A GOOD ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hear ya Jeff,

I remember being a 14 year old kid, maybe 120# soaking wet. Shot my first buck down in this rocky hollow, (it probably went about 130# dressed) and after we gutted it my dad went to help this old fellow get his deer out 1st, and told me just to hang out or I could drag if I wanted, but he’d be back shortly. I had the deer out of the hollow, and half way thru the field by the time he got back. This place is so nasty that I reluctantly hunt there anymore and refuse to shoot a doe in there, and can only imagine the work a big buck would be. Adrenaline it’s a wonderful thing!

Hey........you said I can come down if I want to shoot DOES.

I take it you used the new one on "The Bull"?

#1 from this year--basswood leaves make really bad toilet paper when they are dry and crackly.

LMAO!!!! ANOTHER GOOD ONE.Man im learning some stuff today

Matt:

You're welcome ANY time...and to shoot ANYTHING you want. Rob's not coming this weekend, now......come on down. Temps are going to drop 20deg., Wed. night! I'll be in a tree, Thursday morning. Come on down!

YES!! The Bull was my first deer with the new knife!

(1) Green palmetto leaves work pretty well in a pinch. [8D]

(2) I need to sew a bowholder on my pants leg so my arm's don't get tired.

(3) I need to lose the rifle mentality - never take a marginal shot and different shot selection.

(4) Predator Fall Grey works great when skylighted (not a plug, but the deer didn't stop to fixate on me).

(5) Thinking hard about your stand selection can pay off (wind, feed, direction, etc).

(6) Never be too afraid to trim shooting lanes. [:@]

(7) Being still and prepared for a shot is about the best thing you can do on the stand.

(8) Deer love shallow ditches in the woods.

(9) Bowhunting is very difficult (not that I though it would be easy).

(10) Don't use a velcro buckle release (catches sometimes on draw = noisy).

(11) In golf, they say happiness is a long walk with the putter. Well in bowhunting, sadness is a long
walk on a good blood trail that dries up.

(12) There are more important things than deer hunting. It is amazing how it can consume you,
but sometimes we should stop, take inventory, and thank God for His creation and our blessings in life.

O.k. My biggest thing is DONT RUSH!!! Let the shot happen I could of had the buck of a lifetime if not rushing!!

Crap, your number two would keep me from hunting most of the year. Its still in the 80s here.
