RE: As if this season couldn't get any worse...
Hmmmmmmmmm... For some reason I just can't feel your pain. LOL Relax, get back in the tree and let it happen. Maybe change a tree here and there. LOL Michael, you aren't going to get anyone around here that can relate to your problems. Most of us would like to have all your problems. :D:D:D

ORIGINAL: Germ Hunsucker here is an internet Hug from Germ;) I understand, some may not, but when your succesful and put your time in one has certain expectations for themselves. It's a let down when one is not meeting a goal. The goal may be to kill a deer or to kill a booner. |

Man that does suck, i have seen some of your guys properties and from what you guys have produced in the past this is a suprise. Just one of those years i guess. If you find the camera thief, tie him up and call me, ill drive over, and rough him up, that way you guys will be in the clear, and ill hide back in Indiana :DYou have had late season sucess, its not over Mike ;)

Your right. My goals were to see alot of deer. Not have my stand stolen. And drop atleast one deer be it a 100 pound doe or a 400 pound 200 point buck. JUst one deer.
I did not meet one of my goals for the year. Someone got my ladder from my stand that just about broke me for the year. I had deer in range twice. One doe and a nice 11 point some dogs scared off. And i only saw deer twice when sitting for a hunt. Saw them about 6 times walking in or out though ORIGINAL: Germ Hunsucker here is an internet Hug from Germ;) I understand, some may not, but when your succesful and put your time in one has certain expectations for themselves.

Mike...I am right with you. Have spent way too many hours in a stand in November and yet to have a buck on the ground with a bow. On one hand, I have seen more big bucks this year than the last several combined, and have killed two antlerless deer. And, on that same hand, I killed my best buck ever,with a rifle.
One the thumbs down hand, :D, most all the big ones were out of bow range. Decoyed one nice buck in for a perfect shot (and perfect footage) only to have him turn inside out at the shot and made me look like a goober that sent an arrow way over his back. The big buck I killed with my rifle was only 35 yards (the exact reason I hadn't picked up a rifle 11 of the last 13 years). Top it off...after 8 full days in IL, you can count the number of deer I have seen on one hand. So...here I sit with 2 MO buck tags and one very expensive IL buck tag. My MO farm sucks in late season as the deer move off property in big groups to the south and I have no idea what to make of the spots I am hunting in IL. This is my first year on them and obviously not what I was hoping for, lol. |

Probably already been said but since I only skimmed...
You are a seasoned hunter. You know that's just how the ball bounces sometimes. If you won all the time, winning wouldn't be as much fun anymore. Mind you that is coming from a guy who just had his best season ever. (can we say outside looking in?) I can however sympathize about the camera. I hate thieves and liars. They all need to be laid out and tied down to the Union Pacific. |
