2016 Buck Hunt

It was not a wise shot to take. I knew it wasnt, but this was the first buck I had gotten in range all season and time was running out. I wasnt going to let him get away. It was December 9th in Ontario, which means it was muzzleloader season. There was fresh snow on the ground and it was cold. I had...

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

Thats good to know Scott. I'll have to do a better job of keeping my equipment out of the weather next time.

First Snow of the Year

It was snowing in my part of Ontario when I finished lunch. I had already decided to go for an afternoon hunt and the forecast only called for 1-2cm, so I put on my camo and packed up my crossbow. My bow is an Exocet 200. It was a gift from my dad years ago. I cant remember now if it was for my birt...

Buck tale

I didn't make it out hunting at all last year because of work, but I have been out a few times this year. The first few times I went out, I sat in a blind observing a field and only saw one doe, about 120 yards out, and she didn't come any closer. I saw a lot of bluejays, and some of the squirrels t...

Re: Wow not good ......

Someone gets left behind after the evacuation, blame the police for not checking every house. The police check every house and remove firearms in plain sight so looters don't take them, blame the police for entering every house. If the guns were stored properly, and not laying about on tables or lea...

Re: Who'se your daddy?

Even though I'm young, I have lots of friends who have lost their fathers. It has put things in perspective for me, and I know how lucky I am. My dad's always there to harvest bigger deer than me, and to fix things that I break (thanks for taking care of the window...). He has taught me not only rig...
