Been a while since I've seen one. Caught one back in 2016 while trapping. Had this red/grey fox double in a pair of coyote sets:
Couple years later picked up a grey on trail cam a couple of times two months apart in a different area. Assume it was the same one both instances but haven't...
Trying out the fieldsheer socks this fall. So far have worked well for me. As mentioned before, thin sock underneath help. Links to your phone so you can change settings during the hunt if you want, but so far haven't needed anything above low to keep my feet warm...
Got a late start bowhunting this year. Didn't get my usual rutcation in early November due to work commitments so decided to take a couple days off during Thanksgiving week to catch the post lockdown movement. Saw some deer through the week, but nothing to get too excited about. Got to Sunday...
Haven't trapped seriously for a couple of years, but if I were would still have a hard time convincing myself to target that one. Have a soft spot for fox and that's a pretty one to keep around and enjoy watching.
Don't know about phones but on my laptop when I'm on the forum list page towards the top right is a box with my profile pic in it. When I click on that box can see my menu-messages etc.
While I'm back in this thread any chance we can get a button to start a new thread inside of a forum instead...
Opened 3rd season on Wednesday by tagging a cautious long spurred gobbler. Turned out to be a double beard.
Finished the day by completing a spring slam.
It's funny how people have different results with the same bullet. I put myself still more towards the novice end as an occasional muzzlelader hunter but had the issues you described when using polymer tipped sabots, particularly the Hornady SST's. Frequently resulted in pencil hole wounds...
Agree with what's been said so far that being it's a respiratory illness that should be minimal concern when handling meat. If the deer was coughing and spitting on you probably should have waited just a bit longer before gutting it, lol.
Here's my patch on 7/24, then again today. Been lucky so far, other than initial ground prep/fertilizer haven't had to do anything except nuking the weeds when the plants were starting to vine out. They got to canopy stage before the rain stopped and the heat hit so have weathered that well...
