Congrats Ishi!

I am in quarantine through Nov 10th on the farm, so I've hunted much more than normal. Had a 2-3 year old buck at ten yards twice last night. Came to antlers looking for a fight. Nothing else moving that I saw, but there is corn still in on 3 sides of the land I hunt.

Nice work. You have a full freezer already!

I haven't tried it, but I've seen this posted on a FB page that I follow and looks good. https://www.tasteofthewoods.com/recipes-2/smoked-deer-quarter-2020# This is cured though. Not sure if that's what you're looking for.

awesome deer. Congrats!

Second weekend of youth season, I had a moody 15 year old, that suddenly didn't want to go hunting. I reminded him, that because he was mad at me for something, and he was choosing to take away something that we both enjoyed. He finally changed his mind, and his attitude changed right along...

I've got two teenagers(well 1 3/4, one is almost 13), The time hunting has led to lots of great conversations with the boys. Enjoy your time. And Congrats on a great buck.

She was a bloody mess. I didn't have a rag to wipe her up before photos....

This is the first year that the kids have not been playing soccer, so weekends are a little more open to hunt. Misha was up the first weekend. The first morning, I always like to have a little extra time to make sure I have everything ready to go. We were on stand by 6 for a 6:33 opening, so...

Cool program, but amazing how many of the recipients want it already turned into sausage or jerky.

Plenty of options out there. I've had mine as young as 8 with a .50 cal MZ. Just dialed the powder way back. Teaches the kids to make an ethical shot, as they only get one chance at it. The only thing I remind my kids, is that time in youth season is limited. I split my time between hunting...

Anyone suspended for fighting or fired for drinking on the job yet? We started some school work to keep the kids engaged on Tuesday. No revolts yet.

I have a friend selling a Deere 4066R with loader. 2018 with 104 hours on it. Has the loader with bucket and a set of forks. Message me and I can put you in touch.

I had a deadhead I found a couple years ago that I wanted to keep. DNR asked that I obtain permission from the landowner before they would come out and give me a salvage tag. I have permission to hunt the property, but they wanted to make sure the landowner was okay with me getting the salvage...
