Legacy

Update... January 7 Low 24 high 44 Partly sunny skies Light south wind turning light west Pulled an all day sit. Big ridge and saddle right in the middle of a big timber block. Heard 9 shots all day. Never saw a deer. The only big news from camp (7 of us total) was one guy passed up a big 7 (shooter) in the pm and another guy saw a neighbor shoot and kill a 140s buck in the am next to him in the clear cut 200 yards out. Cold front moved in here and the weather has been seasonable. Thursday it was 70 degrees here and Saturday morning it was 24. Cold front has helped and some deer are moving in daylight according to cell cams. Cell service sucks at camp but apparently is really good in this stand.

I shoot mine without any weight at all.

Good morning from Ohio!

This didn't post yesterday...

I just wanted to give a huge shout out to Dan "Double D" for taking the time to get my gun issues taken care of. In the past week or so he has dealt with a handful of phone calls from me. I ended up purchasing a new scope (based on his recommendation). He then took the time to mount it, bore sight it, and even took it to the range to get it close to zeroed. I can't say enough. I spent some time today at the range regaining confidence in my gun. Gun likes to be dirty so the more I shot the better it looked on paper. All seems good so I head to Ohio hoping to get an opportunity at redemption!

Well the season isnt quite over for me yet. I will be heading to Ohio on Friday for the muzzleloader season. Updates later this week!

January 1 pm 38 Degrees SW wind 5-15 cloudy No much to report. Pretty quiet sit once again and im sure this warm front is to blame. A small buck and a bunch of does/ fawns at dusk.

One last day for the NY season...

December 30 pm 63 degrees SW wind 5-15 Partly sunny Wasn't expecting much and that's exactly what I got. First Deer didn't show up until 455. Saw 3 does/fawns and 2 small bucks from the set and 3 does/fawns on the walk out. Pretty damn quiet! Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

60 plus degrees... wtf... Less than ideal conditions today but here I am back on the ground hoping for a third opportunity and some redemption to end this muzzleloader season. 3 days to go although tomorrow probably won't happen with the rain forecasted. LFG!!! Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

December 29 pm 43 degrees SW wind 5-15 mph Partly cloudy (amazing sunset) Back at it this afternoon after taking a day off for mental health. Once 4:00 hit the deer were on there feet. An insane number of total deer this afternoon including 8 bucks just no shooters. Only 1 mature buck ( the same big beamed and no points buck that I have now seen 14-15 times this year). I simply cannot believe how visible this old mature buck is. 4 of the bucks I believe we're 2.5 year olds so that was a great thing to see. 2 of the 8 bucks were half racks and it looked like they were dropped. Just another amazing day in the deer woods. Clock is ticking... Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Pretty awesome dad moment!!!!

Deer #1 at 3:22. I can only hope that it's a good sign of things to come. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

About 3/4 of the rounds I shot yesterday were with old powder and I actually opened a new container while I was there. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Thanks everyone. For now hopefully I'm all good. Not much I can do this late in the game. Gun shot good when I left the range yesterday so fingers are crossed it works when I need it to. It is unfortunate that my confidence is lacking and I really don't like that. Ordered a new scope today as per Double D's recommendation. Not sure if it is the issue but it's not gonna hurt. I won't have it for the season here but I have 4 days in Ohio in January. Once I get it setup I'll head to the range and get it dialed in. Hopefully regain my list confidence in this gun and my shooting. I'll keep you guys in the loop once I get some range time in again. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
