Douchbaggery so thick you could cut it with a knife.

[Bill from NJ]

Guys in trucks with muddy quads and a pallet of corn trying to stare me down.

Shooting like maniacs the day before.

 

Hypothetically speaking, not as if I have any personal knowledge of this but,

 

I hear from reputable sources... Trespassers make fantastic mushroom growing patches in the deep woods.

My whole attitude towards hunting today has changed. I used to be serious about 6 day but ever since they changed all these seasons and kill em all rules allowing doe to be shot during really soured me. Nothing like waiting for sunrise for that first shot that you knew was someone shooting at a buck. Gave you hope to maybe the herd or a buck running your way. Now you don't see the herd but hear them getting wiped out with doe permits.

 

A couple years ago in the last hour waiting for Mr. Buck to step out I heard a volley of shots up on the top of the fields I was hunting. I looked through the binoculars to see deer running across the top with one of them, a small antlerless, limping pretty bad. Just before they got to the woods another volley rang out and the deer headed back the way they came with the limper still on it's hooves. Shots rang out again and the deer were like pin balls running all over the place finally getting the hell out of Dodge. I saw the limping deer make its way into the hedgerow separating the fields. There was not one speck of orange anywhere in those woods or any that ventured out into the open to either recover anything that might have went down or follow up on the wounded. Needless, to say all of the shooting and commotion pissed me off and most certainly spooked everything in the area. At dark I made my way to the spot where I saw the limping deer, but failed to see or find it. It most likely slipped out while my head was enveloped in steam......Hoped it made it through.

I will admit I bought a doe permit yesterday for the first time ever..with the doe days before 6 day..the woods are jacked ..I'm waiting on a buck all day until like 415..then if a doe comes I'm putting meat in the freezer..it's empty

As I get older the thrill of 6day is losing its luster.

I find the early season bow hunting in October and November much more enjoyable and relaxing.

 

 

Went to check on my stands and cams to make sure no ahole walked away with them. They were fine,

My 6day stands are set up more to catch trespassers than for deer.

Got a good one last year on opening day, former head of my towns DPW.

Trespassing with a firearm in Nj could have cost his pension, but I'm not a dick, so I'll probabaly see him again tomorrow. Smh

 

Good luck to everyone

 

Can't wait till it's over.

I'm an old fart.

Trespassing with a firearm is very serious, possibly jail time . Edited December 4, 2016 by BCsaw

I skip 6-day now.  Used to go out only during 6-day, now it's the complete opposite.  Love bow season in the fall and the winter.  No one is in the woods.  The only gun season I do is predator season.

[Haskell]

Wow glad things are so different in zone 3 , I'll be hunting 5000 acres tomorrow hoping to hear a shot or see a person ,bow ended on nov 26 ,6 days of shotgun and hand full of muzzy days is all we have left of season .,there's 95,000 acres of state land in zone 3 alone ,nice not to have to worry about trespassers ,come get u some push me big mountain rack

[Oneday121o]

It's all about hanging out with your friends, yo bucking, and drinking beers! I love 6 day but I don't kill that many deer, we all work together to get the group deer.

Funny how every jackwagon I ever caught trespassing was looking for his dog!   

[10pt]

That freaking sucks! I'm sorry to hear.

[hunterdan199]

Not many states you can go hunting and shoot a bear,Buck,doe,coyote

 

I Don't like hunting in September or hunting in February the deer need a break. I also agree it has lost its luster but I am sure tonight I still won't be able to sleep and the day when that feeling stops is the day I stop hunting !!!!!!!'

[MGHunter66]

I'm going duck hinting because all the duck dynasty wannabes that are always trying to get to my spots before me will be in treestands behind me looking for a deer. Steel will be flyin' and they will be cryin' . I guess in a way i will be douching the douchbags LOL
