Couldn't resist taking a doe tonight, freezer is empty and have had zero buck action for to long. The wet spring kept me from getting good food in the ground. Was great because I couldn't resist packing up, walking all the way back to the truck, and driving home to get my 4 year so he could track his first deer. Blood hound already, even though he almost literally stepped on her before he saw her because he was so focused on following blood ! Great Moments for sure!
Is your son really a little guy or is that an extra large doe? It looks huge!

Just my two cents, I would approach a situation with another armed human in a calm and non aggressive manner.
I was once accused of trespassing in Keuka by a regular hunter of the land. I had permission to hunt the property but the other regular didn’t bother to ask first. He threatened to “kill me” or hurt me so bad that I couldn’t “trespass anymore”. Thank god it was bow season. He was yelling and screaming for a good 10 minutes. I waited and said I would only come down if he could actually have a conversation (Was in a climber).
I got down out of my tree and calmly explained who I was and why I was ok to be there. I then explained that he told another human being that he was going to kill them and quoted his words back to him. He seemed to get the message as he backed way off and we ended the conversation speaking on friendly terms.
Point is that even though these trespassers stink, you are better off just keeping a lid on the temper. Especially when weapons are present. Get the law involved, let them work and don’t let anger get the better of you. What I went through was nuts, and I wasn’t doing anything wrong. Starting from a place of rational conversation would have been much better for both him and I.
People are crazy and it would be dumb for something to escalate Needlessly. Do unto others........
I would second that. I saw this article by Jay Gregory well known tv hunter a while back.

We have found one. The story is the same. Either hunter got excited and tried a quartering-to shot hitting the shoulder with minimal penetration or they are gut shot. The problem with the gut shot ones is there are coyotes everywhere out here and they find them quick. Once jumped out of their bed by the coyotes, there is no blood trail to follow just clumps of hair here and there.
When the deer is not found, is that it for the hunters hunt? I know a lot of places have an "if you draw blood" policy.
The deer I shot on Sat with a rage had very little blood trail because he was bleeding internal from a double lung pass through. I did not have to worry about a blood trail though because I saw him drop within sight. That was fourth deer shot with a rage hyperdermic and never had to track. My buddy shot this one yesterday with a rage. No tracking needed.

I went on some more deer track calls the past two days. All calls were from Rage broadheads users.
Just curious. Are they finding any of the deer on deer track calls? Most of them or very few of them?

Was 14 degrees in 9Y today at:5:30 this morming. Ground had been soaked and now it had frozen. I was sure I would never see a deer because every step I took walking to my stand sounded like it would carry a 1/4 mile. I convinced myself that since I had gotten up and made it this far to get my stand as quickly as I could. I got there and it was still dark. As soon as it got light enough to see, I saw deer running in the field past the edge of the woods. This was the one time I forgot my binoculars and everything was at least 200 yards out. I told myself a buck would have his head to the ground sniffing and not eating like the does, so I thought I saw a couple bucks. At 6:55 I see a deer hugging the treeline and it stops at corner of field closest to me. Another deer from middle of field runs towards it. So I thought first deer might be a doe and a buck was coming to check it out. When the second deer got close to the first one he started to posture up. I said hah that first deer must be a buck. They started to spar lightly and I thought I was going to see my first buck fight. The second deer decided to head back the way he came and the first one stayed in the wood line and started walking to in my direction. I had already ranged that corner of the woods and field at 45 yards and this buck was staying in the woods and coming closer quickly. I picked him up in scope of my crossbow and when he got broadside at 20 yards. I sent a rage hyperdermic at spot right behind his shoulder. he jumped and ran out into field and back towards the woods. It was open enough that I saw him fall and start kicking in the air. 7:05 and I had my biggest buck ever down. I have seen bigger but buck fever has gotten the best of me til now. My stand was in the tallest of these pines. Landowner had a trail cam picture of him and another one about the same size but with bigger brows.

I like Primos because they are so easy to set and are not expensive. They came out with one that is under
$50. I bought one and it takes decent day and night pics and also has movie mode. No frills but they are
less that $50. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=primos+bullet+proof+2&_sacat=0&_sop=15.
That price is only on ebay. Other places that are more than $50. The model is Primos bullet proof 2.

Nice! Thanks for sharing those.

if you can do a double overhand loop of the leadcore and thread the mono through, it is even tighter.

The smart thing to do would be to establish a lottery hunt. Money would come in from tags and the
moose population would easily be kept at a manageable level. It costs many thousands to airlift wolves.
No guarantee the airlift wolves will even hunt the moose.

Yes Matt. Cheaper and you get your meat back. The pepperoni sticks are their best slim stick. The Italian sausage is really good too.

Walker rd and Hamlin Parma town line rd. There is a guy named Todd...he has a Jeep parked out front with a sign on it. I’ve used him the past two years. Quick turn around and really nice cuts on the venison.
Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario UnitedThanks to everyone who recommended Todd. I took two deer to him on Sat and he had them done within four hours and
the breakfast sausage he made is some of the best I ever had. He did a great job and had a very fair price!
