Re: My Dad shot the wrong deer
There is no wrong buck as long as it is legal. Congrats to your Dad!

Re: Xmas - 6 Free Norms Arrows Contest
Very generous and thoughtful of you! I'll have to figure out how to post photos and send one of my grandson with his first fish.

Re: Fun season so far but no big buck yet
I get one archery buck tag and one firearms buck tag plus 3 firearms doe tags and 2 archery doe tags (all free as a landowner with 75 or more acres). I don't pass on anything legal (4pts on one side or antlerless) with my crossbow and I'll shoot any legal buck during firearms season. My needs are me...

Re: Slow Season
I hope you get some decent weather for a late season hunt. Your weather is probably a lot like ours. December and January are mostly cold but we usually get a few nice days. The good part is the sun comes up later and you don't have to get up as early. Good luck!

I wish I'd gotten him with an Excal'
This year it's been difficult for me to get a legal deer (4 pts on one side or antlerless) into range of my crossbow. I could have killed several smaller bucks that I couldn't be sure were legal and the does seem pretty scarce. Firearms season opened last Saturday, and I shot a nice fat doe that mor...

Re: The Old Man of the Woods
Congrats on a true trophy! Way too much emphasis is put on a set of antlers in the hunting world today. All deer taken are special and should be treated with respect. Think of what a boring world it would be without the majestic whitetail to chase around! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: ! I agree 100...

Re: Muzzleloader bucks, still chasing #1
Thanks for the story and the pictures and congratulations to all! We too have a lot of deer without brow tines which makes our 4 points on one side minimum more difficult to identify. As you point out, the problem is also there for shooting antlerless deer. Spike bucks can look a lot like does. It's...

Re: Muzzleloader buck
Nice buck and great picture! Is that a bolt on the rifle? I've never owned a muzzleloader so I know very little about them but the words "bolt" and "muzzleloader" don't seem to go together. I'm perfectly OK with people using them, but it seems wrong to call a bolt action rifle (i...

Re: 340 Mag Crab claw buck harvest
That's a nice buck! Big deer and the antlers have some heft like older deer have. Enjoy your success!

Re: Lame year for harvests
Although I'm retired and have my own place to hunt, but I haven't been out much this year. The corn is still in our field and the woods has been so thick with vegetation visibility has been hard. I just got back from two weeks in Argentina and Brazil to find the woods more open but the corn still st...
