RE: DE Shotgun Season Opener
 

Glad to here the Lums deer was legit, just wish I could bag something this year.

Saturday, I missed twice on the same deer, arrow went wide right twice. I don't know if I screwed up twice or ifmy sight or rest somehow got messed up. I was shooting over some brush but I doubtI hit something twice.Both arrows curved indenticallyright. After the first miss the deer just looked around walked and gave me another broadside shot and i missed again. even after the second shot the deer did not get scared and walked around the area for25 minutes.

AJ52, can you email me the pics of the lums 20 pointer. [email protected]

I give you credit for taking the bow out during the gun season. Sorry you did not bag your deer. :(

Here is Pic of 13pnt Piebald with 22 1/2" OS spread taken last week on farm we hunt in Kent County.

Deer was aged at 4.5 - 5.5yrs.Weighed in at 190.Picture doesn't do justice to the fantastic markings on this animal.The guy in pic and I have been trying to put together a plan of attack on this farm for 4 yrs but he's always been busy.Muzzle season it rained all week. We looked at a series of trail cam pics taken over 3-4 week span and finally put together a strategy for 3 stands during early shotgun.It paid off for both of us. I got a decent 7 pnt. He got the once in a life time trophy! I don't begrudge the guy a bit - he's one of those few guys that is a pleasure to hunt with.

xi,
Glad to see you got em posted.This ole boy was really rubbin and scrappin early on. He's got at least 6-7 damaged pnts.I imagine alot of guys will be hunting around Lums in Jan lookin for his twin brother. Alot of These state parks have some mouldy oldy bucks that been hiding out for years and never get shot at.I know the guy that bagged this Bullwinkle is one Happy Camper!

o my..my son attended the camp there in 2004 and he said that while on nature walks they would see alot of tracks in certain areas..the deer are there for sure:) they are probably a little more tolerant of human movements and smells too. i might give it a shot there next year:) great deer and i need to read the story
