Drainage off creek on ridge

Xbow

Had 3 come out. Stood there and stared. Knew something wasn’t right. One was right behind me. Had my bow drawn back and I was standing there for about 3 minutes waiting for them to move for a good shot and my arm was screaming and about to give out.

One behind me knew I was a person blew and ran away causing the others to run away . As I look behind me, I see antlers moving through the woods.

I’m debating on packing my shite and leaving after that. I’m pretty ticked off

thats a big plus too

I have an eberlestock x2 but I did skin a deer I killed in MO on the ground. Was not fun and was strenuous on my back.

My plan is to field dress it and drag it out via sled.


I found out that there’s a skinning rack at campground and I wanted to use it when I kill one.

Yea. Had does in heat everywhere baw

Debating on if I should take off on Tuesday

People underestimate the ridiculous lengths some "content creators" will go to in order to generate clicks. People will also go to extreme lengths to make a canned hunt appear legitimate for credibilitys sake. When a story checks a lot of the boxes of content creator doing content creator things, people are going to get suspect of it.

This.

If this guy killed this buck on a 50 acre tract of land in Walthall county then that guy needs to buy a lottery ticket.

If this guy killed this deer on a 5000 acre private tract then something might be off and/or these people just poured money into it to stay there and slip up

But who knows maybe they had neighbors that were very cooperative and performing a team effort to try and hunt him and put little pressure on the area.

This reminds me a lot of Tyler Jordan’s big buck he killed at HB last year….

REALLY hot. Too hot to be doing this

Good luck to all hunting in this miserable weather

This topic gets brought up every season it feels like but it’s what motivates some to get out there.

For everyone across the lower 48 it’s been a very warm week so far and going into Xmas it will be warm. Especially in the south. In particularly Louisiana. Week of NYE it will cool off and *gasps* it’ll happen when I go back to work.

This is my experience, but I have had much better luck in the cold than the heat. Particularly upper 70 degree weather. I have seen them in the heat and killed a small amount even, However they have to move at some point to survive despite the heat.

At the same time…I do question life after I go in the heat, sweat my arse off, kill more skeeters than I know what to do with, and not see a single living animal.

I’m trying to convince myself to go Sunday and not give myself the whole “well it’s better than being at work” spiel. And really hate to use PTO on Tuesday when I know there will be better days to go in January.

Has the OB been having luck in this heat? I need some motivation to go on Sunday.

"Can't kill em on the couch" but i feel like a failure and question my decision making when i do make a hunt in the heat and kill nothing but mosquitoes and time and don't see anything
