Most of the time I dislike my Ground blind during archery season, but days like today I love it! Only seen one set of hunters all day and I bet I drove eighty miles by the time I went to hunting spot and then to processor. Today was Ohio's gun opener and I took dad out for a hunt. I have been trying to get dad set up for a deer this year pretty hard, been doing lots of CB hunting. Well it started to rain last night and was raining pretty good this morning but we had our elevated blind set up and was nice and cozy! Sunrise was 7:30 and at 7:50 a nice four point came out at 75 yards. He stood broad side and dad took the shot. Hit high shoulder lower neck and the deer fell in its tracks! Dad was on cloud nine and I was too!! Here is him and his first buck!!

RE: Ohio Gun Season

Im from Indiana but a friend asked me.....whats the rule if you shoot a doe on your property and she runs onto the neighbors property.....then he will not let you on to get the deer and just lets it rot....We just have to call our local CO and he goes with us to get the deer....is that how it is there?

RE: Ohio Gun Season
 

In Ohio they respect the land owners rights over the hunters or anyones for that matter.The state feels it is not your deer until you puta tag on it. You can not do that unless you have written permission to be on someones property. If you shoot a deer and they tell you that you can not retrieve it you are out of luck. Most of the time if you just call the DNR they will come out and tell the land owner that they will go with the hunter and you can get your deer, but they do have the right to say no, it is there property not the hunters. Alot of guys think that they have the right to get a down deer, but they do not. I was part of a controlled hunttwo years in a rowa few years back on a boy scout camp. A landowner had a woods next to it and we where given strict instruction to stay off the property and not trespass. The landowner sat out and watched his woods, he was a big tree hugger. DNR said if a deer ran on his property to kiss it good bye, if we where caught on the guys land we would be fined. The DNR was not happy with the guy, but landowners have rights. DNR did say though that the guy better not need any favors cause he would not get them in the future. It is a stupid thing, but I would be upset if come hunting season I had no control overwho came onto my property.

RE: Ohio Gun Season
 

Thanks....Here the landowner has to claim the deer or give it back to the hunter. They can be fined if the just leave a deer rot

RE: Ohio Gun Season
 

Worst opening day ever in Medina county

RE: Ohio Gun Season
 

I hunted all week on my lease, was hunting for a mature buck saw (1) opening morning 7:00am about a 150 yards out. Between the fog and rain I did not take a shot w/ my Encore, did not think under the conditions it was ethical. I did get trail cam pics throughout the week, but all at night of nice bucks. I'm a little bit flustered with my clover plots next to 60 acres of soy bean. Never really panned out this year. Weather was horrible all week, high winds, rain and sleet. But I stuck with it. Hoping after the beans come off they hit the food plots.

I am with ya Shed. Between work and the weather it has really been a bad week. I did see 11 does last night. Did not go out this morning...my boys had indoor soccer games. I probably will not get out until the 15th and 16th. Good luck everyone. BTW Shed.....how did you go about securing your lease? I have lost 2 properties this year, and was curious about leasing. Thanks. You can send me a pm if you wish. Thanks.

RE: Ohio Gun Season
 

I went thru BaseCamp Leasing.

RE: Ohio Gun Season

RE: Ohio Gun Season

RE: Ohio Gun Season
