  1. Past hour
  2. They worked with the legislature for Sunday hunting and the 150’ rule. They also worked with fish and game and the legislature for the bear hunt and the early bear season. They've also made in roads to towns, properties and areas that were against hunting and now have management programs
  3. I was out from 9 48 till 12 Saw 2 hens at 310 pm about 3/4 a mile from where i saw 2 on Sunday. Same block of woods. Work tomorrow
  4. Some of the worst calling I ever heard was a hen
  5. Congrats Dennis!! Feel better Pal. Cut will heal faster than your ego.
  6. Day 2 has been a bust. Other than cleaning out an old swale that leads to my pond, no real progress today getting rid of ground water. It's slowing but not enough. I have the excavator coming back tonight to see if we can dig a drainage ditch along two sides.
  7. Today
  8. I went for a walk around 9 after hearing & seeing nothing in zone 12. I did a quick scan of the power line for birds from 10 yards inside the woodline & sat down against a tree i uually sit when hunting that spot on the low side of a knoll & called a few times. After about 15 minutes, I saw movement in my peripheral vision about 50 yards away on the woods edge on the other side of the power line. I shifted to get ready & quickly saw it was a hunter. He stood up waving & I said "don't shoot" about the same time. If either one of us was trigger happy, it could have gone a whole lot differently. It turns out he had a decoy on the power line just to my left that I couldn't see because I was on the bottom of the knoll. I unknowingly set up right on top of him! He was rightly annoyed but took it pretty well after I explained his deke wasn't visible to me. He did mention I won't get a turkey with my calling not so great (probably true) & I didn't go beyond a quick mention I get 1 or 2 almost every year since I totally blew his hunt.
  9. Congratulations on the bird and sorry to read about your mishap. Feel better.
  10. Great story and heal up fast! Next time you go out bring an illegal alien with you to carry game out.
  11. Like they say, could have been worse, could have cut your Johnson off instead, congrats on the bird.
  12. Thanks. I have had only 2 other Gobblers since 1990 pull that - Get Behind and Above you tactic. They both lived as well.
  13. I'll take the bag sealer and the seasonings. let me know when i can pick it up, thanks.
  14. It’s funny I was trout fishing today at a local pond. There was a kid sitting across the pond from me fishing. I heard a lot of commotion. I looked up and saw a car. Load of kids jump out, one videoing with a phone and the rest with water guns. I heard one say I finally got you. Poor kid thought he was safe and never saw it coming. They all high fived and jumped back in the car and took off. Poor kid looked pissed.
  15. Tomorrow at 12 pm, House File 601 and House File 4300 will be heard in the House Ways and Means Committee. The bills would penalize gun owners for failing to report a lost or stolen firearm and impose a one-size fits all firearm storage requirement.View the full article
