Decided to hunt my side yard this morning. Passed a decent buck there Sunday morning, have the week off and was hoping to get a better one. I’ve only killed one other buck with my bow before, years ago, but I’m not interested in taking a young buck. My kids hunt and I’ve taken a bunch of does. Had doe come through early, followed by a few more flying through. Shortly after I saw the buck to my left, out of range, heading away. I took out my can call and grunt tube and hit them both. I put them down and thought to myself how useless they were. Wrong! He came in to my left on a string. Had no shot till at 30 yards he turned and went south. I had a sharp quartering away shot. I took quick aim and let it fly. I was concerned that as usual I forgot to aim, year ago today missed one because I hurried the shot, but I heard the arrow hit and it sounded like a drum. He walked off with his tail twitching. I texted my son Tommy and he suggested I get out quietly and that he would meet me at home and we’d go look for it. On our walk in I said it’s either going to be a great day or a pretty bad one. We found the arrow and it was covered in blood. I was concerned that there was white hair on the broadhead but off we walked. Not much blood but a little. Very dense red brush but within thirty or forty yards he was piled up. Not sure who was happier, Tommy or me!!!! Missed a good one a year ago today. Blessed today with a few more days off to enjoy. Couldn’t be happier. Not a trophy to many, trophy for me though! Hope those that have yet to get theirs succeed. Pretty cool stuff. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I’ll do you one better, let’s go fishing. My boat or yours, maybe if we’re lucky I will get one of the Sandy boys to take us out on one of those battle wagons. Only requirement is no political discussions. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

No worries. In 6 years you will have a new president, perhaps one you will like. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Who happens to have turned around the economy, decimated Isis, neutered North Korea, created record job growth, unemployment at its lowest and garnering support from the same minorities some said he would never get. Trump is making this country great, and it drives some people crazy. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I promise that whomever comes to take it won’t be very happy either. Good news is that 90% of the yotes we kill are shot by the .204 lol. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Thinking the results may be a good thing. Neither party controls enough to completely dictate the direction of the country. Hopefully many will reach across the aisle and work together. It’s easy to see and feel what makes us different. Sometimes however when we talk with those we disagree with we learn and realize how much we actually share.

The doe we had this year after loins, back straps, and approximately ten lbs for jerky yielded 53 lbs of “other”. Was a good doe but not giant. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Just got into the stand next to my house and looked at the radar. Yikes! Good thing it’s a short walk! The blue pin is where I was sitting, got in just before the rain. Should be heading back out soon. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
