Northern Whitetailed deer
Or for you southern folk it's Odocoileus Virginianis.
Anybody been out? Anybody hunting this year?
Had any luck? Got any pictures yet?
I've gotta admit that my involvement with these tractors is at least partially to do with hunting.
I suspect I'm not alone?
I don't have big land but I'd love to get a big deer. I keep a couple of food plots planted. I've also learned that just a little brush hogging keeps new shoots coming back and the deer like that too.
The season's coming up here.
Next Saturday.
Got the hunting clothes and stuff splayed out around the living room. Kind of a ritual, I guess.
Gonna work 4 10s this week and cut out Friday morning.
Let's go hunting!

Bein' a gun nut I became fascinated with hunting as a young adult. Great pastime, espcecially for a guy raised in the city.
Now that I live in the country, I'm amazed at the slickers that come out and "camp" by the paved county roads with their camo, 4-wheelers, high-powered scoped rifles, bottles of "scent", big campers, boom-boxes ,whiskey, and hunting boxes ("blinds", yeah, ...right) and scatter corn over a cleared area for a couple of weeks and kill deer from 30 yards away that come to eat, and call it "hunting". About as much hunting skill involved as shooting cows at a feeding trough. I buy my meat at the butcher and let my grandkids throw table scraps to the deer. I guess I'm a spoil-sport.... ;Þ

Hew Scott where did you get your hog.
I wanted to hunt hog in Tx this summer but I didn't have enough time, broke down on the way there and lost two days of time.

My "adoption" of my grandfather-in-law's 2N was in part for maintaining habitat and ultimately creating food plots. Now I'm hooked on the tractor AND Hunting!

Just got back from a 4-day weekend in Hoosier National Forest (southern Indiana) with my brother and father. It poured two days and was beautiful Saturday and Sunday. I stalked up to a HUGE 10 point trophy on the first morning through the rain and fog. Got to about 45 yards and he wandered off in the "wrong" direction to get a shot. I'm still working off of the adrenaline from that encounter!

Here's a pic of our harvest. Both were taken on rainy days. It's amazing that we can set up a stand in the middle of thousands of acres of forest and have a nice deer walk within 15 yards of us!

Bow season has been going on for a while here, but I've never started that - not enough time. IF I get a chance to go out before gun deer season, it's for grouse. Gun deer opens the 18th here this year. Hope they're still rutting by then. Lots of deer around (looking at my corn and soybeans is proof enough of that!), but mostly does and bambis. I don't have a problem shooting a doe, but I do like to get a chance at a buck now and then. Have gotten several does with my revolver, but never had a chance at a buck with it yet.

I too will be out in the brisk (hope not wet) Saturday morning darkness with 2 of my three sons. We just finished touching up the stands last week. Prospects look good with lots of traffic and some well used scrapes. BTW Vikes vs Pats tonight should be good.

I use my N to mow right of ways on the deer lease and shooting lanes thru the underbrush here. We have already had a week of muzzleloader hunting, son shot a small buck but I did not get to hunt much. Next weekend is a two day "Youth" hunt for the kids. Then on the 11th, modern gun season kicks off. I'm going and it looks like the weather will cooperate. For the last few years we have had warm, almost hot weather opening week, but it will be cool I think. I watch all those shows on TV and wish I could hunt in the central/northern states, BIG deer up there. We have a smaller deer, it's hard for them to grow big off of pine cones:^(

Ultra:

Come on down, and bring the machine guns! They are thicker than flies here. An absolute nuisance!

I gave up gardening about 15 years ago because they will eat anything and I culd not keeep them out. This year I gave up on the second of two 40 year old asparagus beds. Deer love asparagus, and do not stop eating them in early June.

Shoot them all!

I"ll be out there. Can get five this year again but only going for one. All I need and not fussy what I get. It all fits in the freezer just fine.
