Lol🤣 my hips beg to differ! Swamp tromping is assuredly, NOT on my capability list!
I will however attempt to “circumvent” the nasty deep regions in the hope of catching one off guard…

Re: Scouting Swamps

Swamps are deer bedrooms! There is a guy on YouTube called “The Hunting Beast” He mostly hunts these public lands swamps and is very successful in Patterning the big bucks. Has his own line of equipment/stands that he packs in and out…goes ”swimming” a lot 🤣 and is “late for dinner” many a night! In...

Re: On a VERY sad note...

Unimaginable…”something” in the way of an explanation or cause will come out, surely, but hard to know what happened before that. Reminds me of a father that backed over his teenage daughter with his boat after she fell water skiing…prop killed her instantly. This was in local waters in NH. How the ...

Re: Dodge Ram truck fyi

Nephew hit a deer coming back from Allen’s, Michigan going 75 mph. Over 9k in diamagnetic. Body shop called BIL on Thanksgiving and asked him if he wanted to replace the fuel pump. They told him since they had to take the bed off, they would save him 3 labor hours doing it now. He said yep! Yup…the...

Re: Hawk crawler deer cart update

That's a great cart full! Congrats to them. I purchased a Hawk Crawler and used it once. For those that are interested, I really can't recommend it for hilly terrain. Its way harder to descend a steep grade with a deer on a Hawk Crawler than not. It adds work in both directions. Now in the woods on...

Re: Is the rut on in your neck of the woods?

Should be starting here in Central New Hampshire! One of my scrapes was worked last week so they’re looking! Mid November is magic time with most daytime movement.
Just have to be in the stand!

Re: Got a doe..... but.

Never lost a deer in my life…been lucky I guess. So, you shoot a deer and lose it to predators…aren’t you supposed to tag that deer anyway? Not sure what my state laws are but I would think that “wasting” a resource (deer,etc) would be unlawful. Have to check with my Fish and Game dept… What are yo...

Re: HOW MANY OF US CAN GIVE THE DALAI LAMA AN "AMEN" FOR THIS STATEMENT?

The Dalai Lama is simply paraphrasing Ecclesiastes from the Bible. IN that book Solomon points out that we can only really count on 1 thing in life.....and that is that one day we are all going to die . Therefore, we should live our lives with that fact in mind. To ignore that fact is not wise. To ...

Ya well the “dollylamma” (as Bill Murray said in “caddy shack”) can go suck a curried egg…coming from an old man who sits on his duff all day, in a diaper, no less, his words of “wisdom” mean SQUAT to me. 🤣
