What are you hunting/fishing?
-
Not a bad day to start the season. One son caught a buck and doe, another took a buck with one side busted. Would like to see the one he fought with. Another buck took late afternoon but no pic.
Pretty typical of what we see around here. I let a small four point go. Maybe next year.
PapaSop That is a bountiful harvest for one day! Congratulations to you & your boys on a job well done.

PapaSop Congrats to you and the boys. Mom’s cookies probably gave everyone an edge while out in the field.

Exactly. Just finished hiding them. Next is a three hour break… Packer- Viking game.

cdavis congrats on successful hunt. Looks like someone did some preseason work

Man I had a great opening morning but now I’m sad. I’m tagged out on bucks and I’m tired. I hope everyone had as good of an opening day as I had. Good luck to everyone and be safe

cdavis that is a great deer. Tagging out is bitter sweet.

I was able to take Saturday and Sunday off to go deer hunting. I only had a doe tag but I’m very picky with does. I have passed on many this year. I have also gotten a bit soft hearted as I’ve gotten older. I won’t harvest a doe that has fawns with her anymore. Today I shot one but the bad thing is she was 1.5 miles from the truck in a spot where you have to drag them out. Sleep will come easy tonight and Thank God for a good game cart! It was windy as all get out today too. 15 degrees with 27 mph winds.

YooperDog thanks man. That’s the first time I was ever successful on opening morning of rifle season.

ND Mike thanks and yes it is.

ND Mike nice harvest and I’ll bet that cart was worth every penny you paid for it. I can’t force myself to harvest a doe with a fawn. Good job man. Hope you get a buck tag next year.

ND Mike holy cow man where are the trees
. I don’t see any. -
cdavis yeah this pasture is pretty much all brush. There are some deeper cuts on the far east end that have some trees but it is mostly brush clumps.

cdavis thanks. Me either anymore, I know the fawns will be alright but I still won’t do it. I did it once when I was in my young 20s. I shot a nice doe and her fawn only ran about 20 yards away and stayed there the whole time. Even when I was field dressing. That is when I said nope, not doing this ever again.
-
bocephus yep she will be good eating. Its kind of strange, she was probably 2 1/2 years old but she was dry. I don’t know if her fawns didn’t stick or what. Her milk bag was pretty much non-existent.
