Just saw my number 1 target. Nose to the ground, intensely searching out this doe on the adjacent property! Had the gun on him again. 140 yards in a full trot! The heart is pumping!

He's going down!!

Great job frogger! Let him keep shooting, keep his interest! 

Good luck man. Following this thread...

Congrats! Sweet buck.. can't believe you have no snow there.....

I have some on they way. Thank you so much, you guys are great!

So, 2 of us sent you free primers? 

I'm very thankful for this late season as my daughter hasn't had many days to hunt archery or gun with her busy sports seasons. We put three hunts together, the 1st day she missed a nice 10 pt at 75 yards (he's going to be awesome next year) day 2, we watched many deer and 3 bucks stay out of range.  Tonight, the light and variable wind bite us. Many winded us and I didn't think it was going to happen. When I looked over and see the doe train coming. I said, tomorrow's weather doesn't look good if you want to shoot a big doe. She said, "no, I don't want a doe". Of course, I look at the last deer and it's a big bodied buck.. we get ready and had to stop him as they were on to us, she whacked him! What a way to end the year!! 

BBD.. What a great way to end the year! With my daughter whacking a good buck...

I'm in the same boat as fisherman21. I bought everything for muzzleloading and now I can't find primers. Can anyone help?

 

 

I have some if you need them.

With my daughters schedule full, we didn't make it out for muzzleloader. So, this will be a great opportunity for her to get some time to hunt with school being off and no sports. Originally I wasn't sold on the idea, now I see the advantages with the kids and families off together!!

Tim Schloss in Erie does outstanding work (he only mounts waterfowl). I’m not sure what side of NY you are on, but  it is worth the ride if you are on the western half. 
 

Glad to finally see someone getting on good birds. Lake Erie has been slim pickings for divers this year.  That looks like a very nice redhead.

 

 

I agree. Matt, Check his website out...

Yesterday was a great hunt, I saw 9 bucks in 1 hour! 2 hot doe had them chasing and fighting. The last buck to show up worked a doe right to me and gave me a 20 yard chip shot. This is a buck my daughter had at 20 yards during archery and we couldn't get a shot.. I checked cameras sunday mid day and found that he broke his main beam and brow tine somehow last week, I was pretty bummed but knew it would be to hard to pass him. Went back home to get my son to track him with me, that was special too!  

I may have some as I switched to blackhorn powder. Shoot me a pm if you cant find any 

Well, we weren't able to get my daughter on a buck in archery but she sealed the deal opening morning. She made a great shot at 102 yards with her shotgun.. She was so happy and I'm very proud of her! Now, I can do some hunting of my own as I've been waiting for her to score 1st! 

I have the same feelings about gun season but it's different this year with my daughter being 12.. between volleyball, softball pitching and basketball we didn't get many opportunities with the bow. I only hunted 2 days without her and I'm normally a die hard like you guys, it's funny what the kids do to you...  I just didn't want to shoot one and have her disappointed. it's a lot of fun and can't wait for her to wrap her hands on some antlers!  I think this weekend is going to be good. Good luck and stay safe!
