Countdown to Deer Season

[Bear44]

Nice buck Bear.
Hope he steps in front of your weapon.

Yeah if I got a record monster I’d just keep the antlers, put the meat in the freezer and not even bother with the hype
of scoring it.
Does he have a fat sister?

He actually doesn't have a lot of sisters in the area. My buck to doe ratio is about 3 to 1. 3 being the bucks. I don't know where the does go when they grow up, but most don't stick around here.

Yeah usually it’s the other way around.
I’ll see bachelor groups right before archery then I won’t see any bucks till late december....just does.

Been a group of five immature bucks across the street under the neighbors crabapple tree for the past couple weeks.

Haven’t seen the big boys yet but doesent mean they’re not around.
I need to plant some fruit trees on my property.

Getting some new arrows made up for the recurve. Easton XX75 Camo Hunter 2018’s with a reflective yellow wrap and orange 5” feathers on a four fletch. These will be tipped with 205 grain Simmons Interceptors (1 & 9/16” cut) Matching nocks are on their way.

They reflect light very well. Should be easy to find.

The four fletch. Really stabilizes a heavy broadhead.

Glad it was a quick n easy fix. It's almost game time.

I know right.
I got a backup now just in case.
Picked up a matrix 380 but it’s inconsistent due to a crappy scope.
I need to get an excalibur scope on it and I should really have something then.

I think we down to five! Checking camera at the honey hole this evening. Hopefully back on a daylight schedule till Saturday

What's with the coloring on that 8pt? Piebald?
All the other 8-12 deer I've seen on the property are solid light brown, unless it still has spots.

Thanks, I was thinking that would've already been gone! Sounds like I ought to learn more about the animals that I hunt than arrow spine calculations.
