PA Archers. Where will you be in a week?
 
I will be settled into a shack of a cabin with 6 to 8 other knuckleheads, watching hunting DVDs that we have seen a million times over and playing cards. The bathroom is drafty. The roof leaks slightly. I will have already have hit my head on the beam 3 times and be cursing it. Man, I wish it was Oct 3rd.:D

Getting the gear washed and bagged tonight really has me psyched up.

As a part-time PA hunter, We are heading to Camp in Clarion Oct 16, 17, 18 for starters. If I get lucky on a nice buck in Ohio, I'll spend a lot more time up there.

Come on guys you know you will all be at the computers talking about how fast your arrows are and how much twist is on your veins. Then someone will bring up the topic of broadheads and 80% of the people think rage are the bomb. Its the same ?'s with the same anwsers.

RE: PA Archers. Where will you be in a week?
 
I'll be in bed already because I'll be waking up WAY earlydue to the fact thatI have to park in a game lands parking area. I want to be the first one there and have nobody see where I'm going even though I have about a mile walk in to the woodlot I hunt.
They picked the cornfield above my stand already so I had to map out an alternate route for opening day today.........the only thing that will keep me out of that particular blind with longbow in hand is a South wind.

I'll be in a ladder stand at my cabin in Somerset Co.

I'll be in the bottom bunk here (no, that's not my purse :eek:[8D]), getting some sleep. I'm sure before then we will enjoy some time around the campfire telling stories and lies.



I have no idea on where I'll be on that Saturday morning. Depends on the wind, and where my gimp buddy Dan will be able to hike to. He's got a busted up ankle (he's getting old and fragile) so he will get whatever stand/blind is easy to hike to. I'll get second pick after he decides where he wants to sit.

Just finished up all the early/mid season laundry tonight. Should be putting a final tune on the primary hunting rig tomorrow. I'm ready, and I can't wait!. ;)

Ok I know it's not nice to pick on the handicapped........but I'm a having a hell of a chuckle picturing Danno getting into a ladder stand at this point.
:D
Just roll his butt down to the foodplot out front.......seems nice and soft down there he probably can't do anymore damage.

Heh......he wouldn't be the first to hobble down there andtake one.....lol. [8D](That's where Rob hobbled down to and shot his doe last year). I'm thinking about renaming it the gimp blind.

RE: PA Archers. Where will you be in a week?
 
I'll be in a big comfoy two man ladder stand. I know I won't sleep well the night before so hopefully the deer come by early in the morning. Or else they might catch me catching some zzzzzzzzzzzzs

Laundry will be done tomorrow and probably a little practice with the bow everynight this week.

RE: PA Archers. Where will you be in a week?
 
Unfortunatially I'll be near Pittsburgh, Pa. at a wedding.(friend of thewife) Although my wife did ask if I was bringing my bow with us, i thought about it for a second or two and said no i wasn't bringing my bow. I then told her that i didn't have any spots near where we our going and she saidI'm sure you could find one. Lets not forget it is my 12 wedding annv. also, so i'll skip the first day, and kill on Monday the second Day.

better to have lost this battle than loose the war!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i'll be at my hunting buddy's house about 15min. away from my stand spot. usually average about 1-1 1/2 hrs. sleep the night before opening day.

dude hunting is just minutes away from that hotel too. i put the address of the hotel into yahoo maps, and just north of the ally river i see alot of green. if you look, maybe even right out the backdoor of the hotel. that'd be sweet. make whoopie, then go kill a deer. what could be better than that. sorry if that last statement offends anyone.

Don't worry Ben, dreaming of big bucks does that to me too... Besides we heard from Rob's trip to NC that he is a "softy".

RE: PA Archers. Where will you be in a week?
 
A week from RIGHT now I will be out of the tree and heading to a freakin work day at my cabin (honestly, what hunting cabin schedules a work day on the OPENER of archery?[&:]). Anyways, I will be able to sit the morning and the evening, so, yeah I will definitely be in the trees south of my clover plot a week from now. Hopefully the weather is better than it is today.

In my stand right behind the house. Have a biologic field planted there and have been seeing some nice bucks browsing around.

Sure thing "Softy" it will be a dream come true if "July 23rd" gets within killing distance of the 101.
