I was with him the last time he shot a deer with that gun! It was back in 1990 or 1991. After that he came along for just to be with family and eat sandwiches…lol!

That money is supposed to be used to keep our wildlife healthy. These other people are getting rich and hurting what hunters are paying for.

And I believe he will be smiling down on you when you pull the trigger. Good luck to you sir.

But when new laws are introduced to try and help, the deer farmers fight it saying it will cost them too much money and it’s not fair to them. My opinion is it’s not fair to the rest of the sportsman.

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51067https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51067Thu, 14 Oct 2021 01:20:34 GMTND Mike I agree. And I think it’s funny how when a wild deer is found with cwd, it’s always within a few miles of a deer farm, and when the farm is tested, the fenced deer have it too.

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51064https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51064Thu, 14 Oct 2021 01:16:44 GMTkyle it’s a shame that your state is not more strict on farm raised deer. Oklahoma is really strict. All deaths have to be reported and investigated for cause of death then disposed of in a certain manner.

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51061https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51061Thu, 14 Oct 2021 01:12:07 GMTkyle I honestly think CWD has been around forever but we are just getting better at seeing it and I do believe deer farms have greatly aided in spreading it to the wild herds alot more easily.

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51058https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51058Thu, 14 Oct 2021 01:04:12 GMTcdavis all the problems we have in Wi with CWD comes from game farms, but like with most things, too much money is involved so the state wont shut them down. Really makes the true sportsman mad

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51055https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51055Thu, 14 Oct 2021 00:56:16 GMTcdavis yep!

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51036https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51036Wed, 13 Oct 2021 23:04:38 GMTND Mike isn’t ehd the same as blue tongue.

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51030https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51030Wed, 13 Oct 2021 22:23:38 GMTcdavis they are blaming it on our drought. EHD is caused by the bite of a midge (gnat). First killing frost will stop it. Luckily CWD is limited to only a few units in the West.

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51029https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51029Wed, 13 Oct 2021 22:19:43 GMTND Mike I just pray that never happens here. We have a really healthy deer herd. The only time I hear about around here it’s the pen raised deer and they are really strict about the way they are disposed of.

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51027https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51027Wed, 13 Oct 2021 22:15:58 GMTcdavis that sure would be nice. I fear our tags are really going to be reduced next year. We are have had a huge EHD outbreak! They are finding hundreds upon hundreds of dead deer.

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51026https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51026Wed, 13 Oct 2021 22:01:59 GMTcdavis I will have to look into that!

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51025https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51025Wed, 13 Oct 2021 22:00:46 GMTND Mike sorry about your buck tag. I sometimes forget some people have to draw for them. We’re lucky here we get 2 buck tags and 4 doe tags.

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51024https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51024Wed, 13 Oct 2021 21:41:27 GMTND Mike thank you sir. I just bought 5 boxes of 30 30s from optics planet.com. They were really reasonable with fast shipping. I’ve bought a lot of ammo from them lately.

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51023https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/51023Wed, 13 Oct 2021 21:35:39 GMTbocephus yep for sure. Good meat for the freezer!

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/50997https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/50997Wed, 13 Oct 2021 19:36:47 GMTcdavis good luck to you! I got turned down on my buck tag but got a doe tag. I am planning on using my Grandpa’s Winchester 30-30 that he gave me to harvest my doe tag. That is if I can find some 30-30 shells!

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/50996https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/50996Wed, 13 Oct 2021 19:36:19 GMTAny whitetail that dresses out at 200 lbs or above is above average. Those are all very nice deer pictured and anyone would be proud to have taken them.

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/50977https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/50977Wed, 13 Oct 2021 16:53:16 GMTND Mike wow those are some huge deer. It’s almost cheating. I have to kill 2 deer to get the same amount of meat yall get out of 1. Good luck this season maybe you’ll knock your brother out of that big buck contest .

]]>https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/50975https://waltonsdev.nodebb.com/post/50975Wed, 13 Oct 2021 16:49:38 GMTcdavis that’s a good deer too! I wish we would’ve weighed the one my brother shot last year. It is the heaviest deer we have ever had. He had one about 8 years ago that was 232 field dressed. He won the big buck contest for weight that year. He’s actually won it about 5 times. I have won the biggest doe contest 4 times. I shot a doe with a muzzleloader that field dressed at 165 lbs! She was aged at 7 1/2 years old!!!
