I'm sure my dad was cranking because is was so warm, he hates it when its so warm. plus if you do kill one, you've got very little time to dress it and butcher it before the meat is no goodwarm and windy on Sat, basically a waste of a hunting day
when it's windy the deerz can smell you for forever, plus the wind mixes up the smells and gets the bambis all weirded out. therefore they hide out, therefore no sense huntin
later on, nice crisp cold still mornings...mmm, bettre
my sube is brown, and looks like it has antlers.well then, you understand the term 'if it's brown it's down'
Venison you got sick from?!?!?!? That's something I've never heard of before. I love deer meat!! And I also like eating it because it's so natural and didn't hang in some random meat cooler for weeks on end. I feel that venison is so much safer to east than the beef you buy in the store.my sube is brown, and looks like it has antlers.
I'll just add a bright orange coat.
I haven't hunted in years. I got extremely sick from venison. Ruling out my own weakness, as everyone who had the same stuff got sick too...even got the brain a bit. Never again. I miss the adventure of it.
on a real scary note. two of the guys that had some, are no longer with us. I like to blame something else, it is easy to do. coincidence sucks like that. Maine is small. dumpsites are big. I knew a grandpa who thought flunder in boston harbor was edible....right into the toxic 80s. it is beyond guessing about maine...and grandpas...
be careful fellas. maybe shoot for sport...
yes, the buck's early warning system is his harem. they wander around grazing dreaming or whatever it is the girlie deerz do, while the buck hangs back to see what dangers they might scare up. He'll only come out to graze once he's had a good long chance to see that no bad guys are out there.saw 3 does last night walking around underneath my stand while i was in it (No doe permit) they didn't even know i was there.. there was a 4th deer off in the woods I could hear it but couldn't see it. Prob ol' mister buck kicking back watching his pootie-tang prance around.
so far, got six little deer heads drawn on my orange cap, all with X's for eyes...does that make me a "deer ace?"I should start putting little deer stickers on the side like a WWII fighter plane...my kill count.
