Just a few more days.:evil:

[Sorek]

Slept like crap last night.....kept having this dream of seeing a trophy buck during antlerless!! The buck wouldnt run off he just stood there when I would yell at him!! I better do a good deed this week to even the score with the Hunting Gods

[Sorek]

Can we get someone to make a cool team placard for the signature section?

[Jekart]

Can we get someone to make a cool team placard for the signature section?

I can do that give me a day or two and I will post a couple to vote on.

[Percha Man]

Sick as a dog thurs fri sat and sunday yet I fdragged my sorry butt out sunday in pouring rain to sight in my MUZZY for the early doe only to have it fall off the rest and throw my sights off on the last shot so I am going to try and get a chance to sight it in again today tommorow or wed or be forced to use my shotgun .. OOH WELL decisions decisions .

Hunting thursday morn till about 7:15 7:30 and then go to work and back in woods by 3:00 or so ....

Hoping to score a doe early. Maybe 3 or 4 for freezer all depends ... Got tags just need opporotunity if not it should be a good season anyway.

Saw lots of Bucks at alot of my spots just have to get the op to get one..

Good luck and safe season .

[QDMAMAN]

Better late than never...since I'll be getting the big 11 pointer this year.. and then I woke up. haha. We have corn this year so I'll have a lot of deer around. Usually I don't see many bucks until the rut starts. I am very interested to see how my habitat changes made earlier this year effects my hunt. I have 30 more bushes/trees going in sometime in the next month, but they won't have an effect for another couple of years.

[Percha Man]

Sorry been busy harrasing others for the sake of sportsmanlike conduct over at other teams..

I got a feeling we will be getting our share of razzing from others as long as I am on here so I hope you all like to have fun an back i:coolgleamt up ......

[Percha Man]

Please no rainbows as in the team 23 avatar that is too funny...

Maybe an old timey photo of some jam packed buck pole and few hunters...

[Jekart]

I'll try and get a couple different ones made up, if you have any suggestions let me know...

Let me know which of the 2 sigs you guys like or if want a couple other options. Once we get a consensus I can post the IMG Code to add as a sig.

I vote for #2

[Ridge_runner7]

I like both but my vote is for #2. It kind of looks like the guy in the middle in the back is going to shoot the little guy on the far right. We need to work on our gun safety skills. :D

My vote is for number 2 but can we try a different color of the words to make it stand out more?

[Sorek]

And lets really get in on making fun of everyone else seeing as we are going to win this thing!

[kingfishcam]

I like #2 also becasue there is a full deer pole.:D

[BeWild]

#2 is king!

[target-panic]

#2 For Sure! Great Work!!!

[Jekart]

My vote is for number 2 but can we try a different color of the words to make it stand out more?

Yeah, I will see what I can do..

[Percha Man]

Sig 2 is my pick as well ( number 2 sounds wrong in my ears..)
I agree on the brighter letters to read the names as well if Possible.

Jekart that rocks ...

QDMAMAN what does easy target mean? Is it those fenced deer you shoot that you are talking about is that an easy target ?
:D:D

TEAM SIX IS GONNA BRING THEM ALL DOWN..

2 more mornings and I am ready........

It's because the rest of them are "Tagged Out"!!!!:lol:

[ArcticcatMan]

Looks good. I'm checking my signature to make sure it is there and looks good. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet. Looks great.

[Ridge_runner7]

How often do you guys expect to make it out hunting? I usually make it out 4-5 days a week, but I got a baby on the way and things are looking grim.:help: Plus I'm heading to Illinois for two weekends during prime time.

[Sorek]

I am planning on being out seven days a week during the bow season.....but work seems to get in the way of my main occupation most of the time. And no offense I make sure to stay away from the wife during january-february.....lol I already had one child during deer season (November 25th 2003) and plan on making my next baby during season to prevent the birth of the next one being then....dont think im heartless and cruel but its the truth! Good Luck to you and your wife with the baby!

[Sorek]

P.S. Please feel free to name the baby after me or Hunter for all intensive purposes.....lol

[Ridge_runner7]

Well it's a girl so "Hunter" might be pushing it! :lol:

[Percha Man]

Hunter is a beautiful name for a little girl...

Congrats and good luck..

Sorek is it true that you can only enter your deer into the Ohio / Michigan crap?? i thought it could be any one of the team members ...

Oh well if it is I wish you best of luck and I hope you represent us well there.

I will be hunting As much as I can from tommorow till january.....

[Jekart]

Good luck to those of you heading out for Early Antlerless. I will be out every evening for it. Hopefully I'll get the freezer full with does.

Be safe!!!

I just can't get pumped up until it gets cold and the leaves are gone. Last year I had 7 deer in front of me on November 29 (I was going to take the big doe with my hand gun if she came close enough but she didn't) so I'm not worried about waiting to take one.

[Percha Man]

Figures I go and hunt last evening and I get a nice 8 point less then 50 yrds away. Did have some smaller fawn does last night but not 1 for me. had a larger looking doe and upon ispection with binos and yep you guessed it a button buck so all deer yesterday got a free pass. Hopefully this evening or this weekend will tell.

GOOD LUCK TO ALL............

[Percha Man]

AAAAARRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH

I hate being at work when it is killing time.

Just got a call from the hunting partners and 2 does down this AM. Man I am so pumped I can't believe it I got to get me some nice does close tonight. And tommorow and Sunday and Monday. That way I can wait on me one of them BIG BUCKS this year...

[Jekart]

Took a little doe last night (I'm guessing last years fawn) at about 6:45pm.

I got sat down about 5:45pm in one of our elevated blinds on a bean field that has a 1 acre food plot runnng along the edge of the woods. At 6:30pm she popped out of the treeline along the beans with a fawn and started feeding directly at me. I didn't dare move so I just watched them feed for about 10 minutes. Then they got to the clover and luckily (for me) began heading away from me. Once she had her head turned I was able to get the gun into position and she offered me a quartering away shot at about 35 yds. I hit both lungs and she piled up quickly after about 50 yards.

Overall a good hunt. It was just great being out there.

For the record, my orange vest is in the mule, I took it off to field dress her.

Here are some of the bear sausage pics and the does from last night. At least team six is eating well :yikes::yikes:

Good Job jekart as well sir enjoy the fruits of your labor sir.

[Percha Man]

Articcatman I would of used my ruger new model blackhawk .41 with scope but I am out of ammo on that one until next payday so I will use up the slugs and Muzzy bullets for the next few days and then I to want to get one with my handgun it is still a thrill either way and I am blessed the lord let me harvest these beautiful creatures for the table.

I bought the $30 or so .44 rounds of Winchester Partician gold 250 grain bullets this year. I use the Hornady SST's in my 12 gauge slug gun. I see that Hornady has come out with a .44 slug that is $20 for a box. I am going to use the Hornady .44 round when I use up the rest of my .44 Winchester box. I didn't hear any shooting or hear of anybody taking a doe in my area. A bunch of people around here didn't even know about the early season. They thought that I was kidding them when I told them about the short early season. Most of them thought that I was talking about the early youth season.

[Percha Man]

I havent made up my mind about the shells for the .41 I have been using 195 grain hand loads but they are gone and my guy isn't around no more to get me some new ones. As far as the 12 guage slugs we have all been using ESTATE brand maximum velocity ( 1610 ) and we got 6 total this weekend
( only took the 2 in my photos ) and all it took was for this slug was a goods aim it performed beautiful out of the smooth slug barrels of all the 870's used this weekend. Best of all they are only $2.95 for 5 slugs at VOITS and they are made in USA to boot. Word of mouth got me trying them and I will use them again.

Did get up to Kingston yesterday for evening hunt and my buddy had a pretty small doe he took. CAN YOU SAY HOT ...
I didn't see any myself so we ended up closing the tavern down and BS'd until almost 4 in Morn. So we never made it out to morning hunt. ( SEEMS LIKE AFTER YOU GET SOME MEAT IN FRIDGE IT IS SO EASY TO GET INTOXICATED AND PARTY A LITTLE TOO MUCH AND SHRUG OFF MORNING HUNTS :SHOCKED::SHOCKED::yikes::yikes: :SHOCKED::D:D.)

Spent day processing the quarters and grinding up the burger so that is done and I saved myself prolly $100 and got MY MEAT. Got 4 gallon bags of steaks and 5 quart bags of back strap steaks and 11 2.5 to 3 lb packs of burger and I am in heaven.

Hell as I am writing this I am eating the tendies and a few slices of back strap.

Well still got tomorrow around here after work so still might try for 1 more and then BOW SEASON IS UPON US AND SO IS TURKEY. I am so ready for this season it is going to go by so fast.

If not I am just going to have more ops through the rest of the season.

[Sorek]

I got shut out this weekend. Seen lots of deer but none in range when on stand, I did get a shot at one with my XForce when I was crossing a river but it was 55 yds and I missed at her feet. I will be back at it Oct 1 Men!

55 yards...wow. I have always figured about 40 yards is max for me. I shoot an older bow at 74 lbs and 265-270 fps (on a chronograph). Anything past that and I figure that they will move too much due to the bow noise. I'm sure that i'd launch one 45 yards or so if he was big enough.....

[Percha Man]

Over til. OCTOBER first ????/??

Am I the only one from the team hunting today ?

I can't put any more does on the board can I ?

Say 1 for each of us ?

lets rack up the doe points and meat and then bag a RACK for more points later...

I can't wait to get back out today after work .... Maybe I'll be blessed again to fill the freezer even more and make my BUCK hunting even more exciting.

[Jekart]

Way to go perchaman!!!

I am debating heading back out tonight. My dad killed a mature doe Sat AM and he gave it to me so I have that and my doe quarted and cooling in frig to be processed tonight. Very tempting to go out and try for 1 more though, that would definatly take the pressure off come November.

[Percha Man]

I hear ya man But worse case senario dude I can come over and help you eat the extras if you need the help. i just feel that since the family eats it why let the freezer be empty. I also have my dad and brothers and sisters who eat venison as well and are all too lazy to go ouyt and get there own So I get raided and have a good reason to harvest what we eat and I will still be able to wait out a larger buck and not be forced to shoot the first MEAT that walks by.:evil:

[Jekart]

Allright, I think you talked me into it!!:D

I do have plenty of room in the freezer and didn't take into acct the moochers who conviently stop by after they hear that I bagged a deer. Plus, what else could be better than on the edge of the woods overlooking a food plot!!! Later folks, back to blind...

[BeWild]

Still here, haven't been on in a bit due to the fact I had to turn 21 and chase a different kind of doe. I am still waiting for October 1st. Congrats to all who took does. I am anticipating mine.

I shoot a 2008 PSE Xforce Dream Season and she really reaches out and touches the target at about 80 yds but I dont ever really dare and shoot a animal at that distance. I dont like looking for a deer I shot in october in November still if you know what I mean!

[Percha Man]

Well ended up not being able to hunt a hotspot last evening and went to a corn field and ended up in back of it waiting on the deer to leave there beds in the hay marsh / hardwoods.

1 guy went well to the right in a treestand 500 yrds or so away in the back 80 corn field the other got to stay in front between two cornfields and I since I was the INVITED one got to take the far back of the cornfield as I stated to wait for the does to leave there beds.

Well I sneak the edge back to the Haymarsh and find some neck high weeds over looking some well worn paths. Tuck in behind a taller bush between 3 of the trails in the weeds and started my wait for the deer to start the migration that is immenent in my mind.

A little hot so I unbuttoned my flannel and was trying to be as still as possible when it happend. MOSQUITOS thought I was a steak and the menu item for the night. Well due to the thinking that I was going to my other spot I had no thermacell or spray packed so I gently blew on them and swatted them and begged them to leave me alone. No avail. After what seemed like an eternity it began to start getting dark and cooler out. Mosquitos must've all burst from overeating because they were begining to diminish.

Suddenly I get a slight glint of grayish brown throught the bush dirrectly ahead of me on the other side of the hill and hear the weeds slowly parting.
Silence ....... More silence ...............

Snort wheeze stomp not 25 or 30 yrds up in front of bush then a helicopter sound goes off in my ear and a few stings to my cheeck and ear..
Got to stay still ....
Snort wheeze stomp I know it smells me but it wants to see where I am at and it can't so it is pissed I see it leaped once and is just on other side of hill in to tall grass ... Can't see what it is OOOUUUCCCHHH slap swat now I got blood on my hands from those vampirsquitos on my face.

Snort Wheeze stomp continues for 3 minutes or so and I can't get a glimpse. I figure it will back up and swing to the left or right to try and see what the new smell is so I ready myself for either one. I got the perfect spot it is prolly 25 yrds and can't see me until it pokes its head out to the left or right of the bush and when it does......... BAM

But wait the snorts and wheezes are getting quieter NOOO it is walking in a direct path down hill which it came where I can't shoot. FIGURES I pick a damn bush this time when I shouldve picked the edge of the hardwoods and seen it circling the field.

OOH WELL another wonderful night in the woods with my heart reacing like a funny car is still better than anything else I know. Also gained some access to a nice property which I was invited to hunt again. Hopefully by then the corn will be down a little and the hay dies off some to offer a better view and more ops.

Jekart I hope you fared better than me last night as far as harvest... But as Far as I am concerned was a night well spent and really has me pumped for OCTOBER 1st..... Come on boy lets take this damn contest.

[Jekart]

The hunt went real well, unfortunatly the harvest part didn't happen. I spotted a few deer in the beans, including a nice 2.5 year old buck and 2 other 1.5's as well as a couple does with fawns but none of them offered up a clean shot. Still was nice to be out, I sat in a new stand and feel really good about the location. The deer were coming from where I expected, they just never came into range.

I am off now until Nov-15. I have 2 more sets I decided to put up on the Barry Count farm so I will be getting that done. Fortunatly we don't have any bowhunters on this farm so it will have some time to cool down before Nov.

I am debating now weather or not I want to head North for the opener with the activity we have had down here. This year is the first time my "Hot Spot" has had anything planted other than hay, it is corn this year I think that might be the ticket. Decision, decisions!!!

[Percha Man]

Well sad to hear you are off until gun season jekart but I am sure you will do us pround when your day gets here ( NOV 15th )

For me I will be in a tree on OCT. 1st in the afternoon to see if I can't get tied into a nice deer with some pointed sticks. And I will hunt through nov 14th as much as possible and then trade the stick in for a more range potent piece of equipment ;).

I have been a busy little bee out messing with all the others so do not be mad at me I think this is a fun contest. I like talking trash to other folks as well..

Good luck to all and I hope some of you will be more lively soon I have to venture around to get conversation.... :sad:

I dont like looking for a deer I shot in october in November still if you know what I mean!


A voice of reason amongst this rag tag bunch of bandits.

[Percha Man]

Just a quick question team.

Are all of you going to try for a doe as well as a buck?

We could use the points and I know where the meat can go if not wanted :corkysm55:corkysm55

Since we are only allowed 1 buck 1 doe each for scoring I would ask that if you have the tag etc.. to please get a doe as well so we can kick some tail on this thing..

If not it is still cool and all but i was just wondering..

Where is Oct. 1 st when you need it ?

[QDMAMAN]

Just a quick question team.

Are all of you going to try for a doe as well as a buck? Huh? Huh?

.. to pleeeeeeease get a doe as well so we can kick some tail on this thing..




Begging already Percha? You guys are pathetic you should be wishing for Jan. 2nd not Oct. 1st so you can end your miserable attempts at significance. :lol::lol::lol:

Big T

[Percha Man]

Funny I ain't begging I am simply trying to get a response from the boys to see what they are doing so I can choose which Buck I am going to shot.. Prolly a spike since the rest of my team will be coming out with the big boys. i do appreciate you trying to spice it up but that usually shows the weakness in your statements so lets let the hunting prove the truth...

[Sorek]

Ah....I love the interest of other teams in our thread.....this slowly sucks away their hunting time and makes them lose sight of their goal....which is to try to beat us.......I am sure that once the bow opener comes and passes the amount of deer posted to the scoreboard will tell the tale of who is really the best team and in the words of the great Ricky Bobby....."With all due respect Mr. Members of other teams....you all suck!"

[Percha Man]

Sorek That is freaking awesome ....

Quoting the greatest driver of all times RICKY BOBBY...


I WANNA GO FAST.... ( right into first place ) QDMAMAN and rest of the others you are going down to the mightiest team of all time TEAM#6 TAGGED OUT..

LETS GET READY TO KICK SOME DEER HUNTING BEHIND.....

[Sorek]

See problem is I wake up in the morning and piss excellence......and most of the other hunters at my deer camp wake up pissing last nights alcohol to try to hide the hangover just to sleep in their blinds......and thats why I am the only man at my camp who gets a deer and their money at the poker table every november......I shoot more deer stalking the woods on foot during bow season the last five years than all 15 of the guys at firearm deer camp in the last 10 years....irony? I think cruel yes but when you wait for them to come to you...you wait for a ghost.....good luck men!

[Percha Man]

2 days til opener any one else as pumped as me? i still do not know where I am going for Wed night yet. I know Friday after Work I will be in Unit T for hopefully a turkey and deer combo... Yummy fur and feathers.


SO MUCH BETTER THAN TAG SANDWICHES.

[Ridge_runner7]

Can't wait! I hunted NW Ohio for their opener on Saturday. I heard two bucks sparing in the morning, but no sitings! Couple does in the PM. Good luck guys.

[Sorek]

Percha maybe QDMAman's team doesnt like him.....thats why he posts here so much maybe we should offer him a charter membership.....lol!

[Percha Man]

Yeah I think we should make him pay a little for wasting our time reading his jibberish It is almost as if he wants us to stomp there team in the contest and verbally... :lol::lol:

1 more day to go ...........

Time to stick a deer and next week whack a turkey...

Can you say deep fried turkey strips and bacon wrapped backstrap ????:corkysm55:corkysm55

Think I'll let my little brother little sister or daughter tag along if they want this weekend. I love it when they are there it makes it so much more spiritual and special than a harvest alone.

Good times and good memories are only 1 step away....

[Sorek]

Looks like im taking off friday to head to montcalm county men......I will not post again until sunday pm. Wish me luck!

[Percha Man]

Good luck sorek !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jekart]

Good luck to all of arrow flingers out there!!! Be safe in those trees!!!

[ArcticcatMan]

percha maybe qdmaman's team doesnt like him.....thats why he posts here so much maybe we should offer him a charter membership.....lol!

lol!!!

[Percha Man]

Trees? Who climbs trees? That is silly why not pop them from the ground . I am to big to be falling out of a tree.

[Percha Man]

Well nothing good to report yet. Lots of wind lots of small does and a few small bucks. No bucks in bow range. Could've shot all the does I wanted though perfect broadside trail and each one stopped to check out a small scrape that a SPIKE made right after I got there.

Might have to poke one of them does I got the itch. Hope fully some nicer bucks swing by next weekend or during the week by the house. Nice to be mosquito free ....

Anyone else get out ?

[QDMAMAN]

"Tagged Out?" more like "Tag Sandwich.":lol::lol:
Good luck!

Big T


Came across a good recipe for you guys.
I thought as long as you had to carry Percha the whole season (you must have offended the gods) you might as well enjoy a good "Tag" recipe.:lol::lol:


Heres your Gumbo recipe that you will get used to eating.

biggest pot you can find
8 quarts of water
salt
pepper
garlic powder
basil
deer tags you were not able to fill (wich means all of them)
simmer for 1 1/2 hours while dreaming of venison
turn on your favorite whitetail show to watch and enjoy your tag soup.:evilsmile:)

Pass the hat! I can be bought.

[Percha Man]

Did you run around copying and pasting that on all threads? Too bad the backstraps had to replace the unfilled tags. I had to modify the recipe for myself already... :corkysm55:corkysm55

One more lunch box filled with venison Jerky.

Wann go fast But...... I keep tripping over the slow guys from Elevated Positions.

Man do I have to speak real slow from now on? :gaga: ;)

[QDMAMAN]

With over 100 DPSM even you, might be able to kill one. Remember road kills don't count.

[Percha Man]

Still waiting on a nice buck anyone else getting any sightings etc...???

Will be forced to take a doe or 2 this weekend to further fill the freezer and if one of them bucks would like to walk past me feel free I am more than willing to fill all my tags before gunseason... :D:D

Still waiting on a nice buck ...


Well, only only 2 months and 28 days left before you can stop waiting. Then it will start all over again in 9 months. :lol::lol::lol:

Oh I know how that is for sure I don't have a personal deer farm of my own to hunt on I have to actually go find them. One day I will be as lucky as some of you old rich dudes but for now I guess I will just go out and do my thing to keep the family fed and keep my sprits high.

Since this is my third year bow hunting I do see wayyyyyyyyy more bucks and get out so much more. I have yet to get a buck in front of an arrow but have taken does.

I guess I spend to much time roaming around the state visiting friends and taking kids out and spending time hunting with them instead of concentrating on Bucks in a single area. My fault but I like the commradery of hunting and sharing memories with new hunters.

Ooh well I still have a good time and will be forever in awe of those mythical creatures they call BOONER BUCKS and P&Y BUCKS :yikes::yikes:

Until one gets 2 close. Only have seen them in the last 3 yrs and I will tag one soon enough.

Yep! The harder I work the luckier I get...it's the "rich" part that keeps illuding me.

[Percha Man]

I hear you on the rich eluding me part :lol::lol::lol: especially with todays issues and economic problems.....

Never mind this would be to deep of a conversation for this forum for sure... :lol: So many bad things going on nowadays.

[Percha Man]

What up?


I myself Did not make it out this weekend Hunting.

I am going out tonight for a turkey and will try for another deer as well try the old 2 for 1 . Would be nice.

I see a few of the others have scored already on some beautiful bucks so congrats to them all.

Any one get out this weekend and hunt?

I did do some scouting on some private land that had some wonderful bucks all over. Hopefully soon I will get to go and try to harvest one of the bruisers... Hopefully...................

[kingfishcam]

Well boys, I had 5 bucks come by Saturday morning, all within 25 yards. I shot the nice 8 point, but had a small deflection along the way. Best I can tell, I hit him in the front shoulder, or more likely the leg bone. Zero blood and no deer.:(
So now I have a wounded 8 point out there I have to chase.:(

I will find him yet. He was busy kicking 3 little bucks out of his bedding area, so I suspect he will not be far away anytime soon.

[Percha Man]

Good luck on getting that 8 point.

Went out last night for a turkey / deer night and seen zilch on the turkey :rant: They have been around every single day morning and evening. Someone must've interupted them this AM is all I can think of ......

Did see a nice buck but he would not come close enough for a shot. I would grunt and he would jump and then circle and grunt and look all around but then he lost interest when a few does came around. Did have like 6 yearlings and a few older does meander in close but I was there for a turkey or a buck or both last night. Will be back out there Friday for the rest of the hunt unless I can get out of work real early one day before Friday :evilsmile..

Good luck to all.

Peace out.

[Percha Man]

Until then I got local deer to harass :yikes::yikes:

[Percha Man]

Anything ? Anyone? Helloooooooooooo???? You all must still be bragging those monsters you shot out of the woods huh ?

Pleeeeeeeeeeease team carry the water for me! If we don't win I...I...I...I just don't know how I will go on.:bloos::sad:

[BeWild]

Nothing yet, I will scope it out tomorrow and see what the woods throw at me.

[kingfishcam]

My son and I are headed to Mancelonia for this weekends hunt.:D

[Percha Man]

Well daughters B-day today so it is off to Chuck E Cheese instead of the woods. Will probably run into QDMAMAN there riding on the penny pony if you see me say hi :lol::lol:

Will be out friday till sunday have a few areas to peek on to see what action is going on. Maybe will get my turkey this weekend.

[Sorek]

Nope he has been hanging out at the local meijers giving pennies to little boys to watch them ride the pony!!! lol

[Sorek]

And I saw him in Vermontville at the gas station filling up his TOYOTA TUNDRA! HAHAHA BUY AMERICAN!

[Percha Man]

Wow Nice one.

Well it seems as if there is a repeat of the last hunt this weekend. Yearlings and does out in daytime on saturday. I saw no turkey yet My buddy did harvest a Hen to be eaten and he is havin it mounted.:confused:

Saturday night almost smashed into a few deer while out driving they are moving alot and late around me.

Well since my buddy Moved away from his wife and kids last week after 13 yrs of marriage our camp had a few drinks and talked well into Sunday Morning. I took a quick nap and headed home and never hunted Sunday. OOH well it sucks that they ended but they ended on good terms I would say but he is feeling guilty now I guess and wants closure in his own mind.

OH well I will be out in the evenings around here harrassing the local population as well until next weekend where I will be going ------ somewhere to hunt I am sure I will be seeing more bucks soon as they are starting to get real horney and wandering around more.

Any way good luck I had a whole long story to go along but strayed quickly.

LOTS OF COONS NEED TO BE WHACKED LETS PUT IT THAT WAY. LITTLE BASTARDS ARE EVERYWHERE WHERE I AM AT.

[Percha Man]

Pool tonight Pool tommorow and then back in the Woods Thursday after work for a few hrs then Friday night and sat morn and night and sun morn and night. Going to find me a buck and put it on the wall this year if god wills it. If not I'll be thankful for harvesting any of his creatures and be happy.

[Percha Man]

Wow glad to hear you guys are doing well..



HHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOO OOOOO!!!!!!


Is there anybody out there???

Wait that is Pink Floyd my bad....


Have fun guys hope you are all getting ready for the season if you havent started already.

[kingfishcam]

Deer were scarce last weekend. I am headed down to the Hillsdale spot this weekend, though, and I have doe tags.:evil:

We had a trail cam on a tree for one week, and got 8 different bucks on it!!! Hopefully one of the shooters will come my way this weekend.

[target-panic]

Congrats to those that connected. I've been out a few times, but haven't seen the right one yet. I'm pretty much buck hunting, but I do have an anterless tag, so maybe I'll decide to take a doe if the right one presents itself. I'll hit it hard starting Haloween week. Good Luck!

[Percha Man]

well the company I work for was bought out by another company and I have to use my last weeks vacation next week before I start for the new company. Same pay same job just going to different plant with a new logo on my paycheck which makes 6 logos in four years. :sad:

Still got opening week of gun off but no paid vacation for the new company until after january :rant:

Anywho I am going to oxford tommorow to hunt with a friend and kingston or around home sunday. Then around here during the week and maybe a few other spots as well.

Next weekend it will be Jackson or Sand Lake area all depends on who is helping on the gas and food....

Good luck to all ..

[Sorek]

Good Morning Men! I am going to a bow hunting camp in Mesick this weekend until then its workworkworkwork! TTYL!

[Sorek]

I am headed out to the big woods tomorrow.....does anyone have a reccomendation for a grunter?? I need to buy a new one

[Jekart]

I like the Mad 'Grunt, Snort, Wheeze and the Primos Can.

[Percha Man]

Lots of does and small bucks last week and this weekend in Hale soon enough a nice one will present a shot. ;)

4 of my friends got 4 does and a 3 and 5 point from a farm in caro. I chose to hunt in hale :dizzy::dizzy: they seen nothing last time and this time they said the little bucks were starting to hunt for some early poon.

Also a nice doe was taken in my oxford spot and the owner said there are a lot of smaller bucks starting to pop out early.Too bad I won't be back till later in the season. Maybe go to unionville this weekend or back to kingston depending on what happens during the week..

Any way good luck and happy hunting to all. Got to get my stuff out of this plant for my big move on Monday.

[QDMAMAN]

Last post on this thread was October 28th! Boy that about says it all for team Tag Soup.
If you guys can't kill deer in November maybe you'll want to join a knitting forum.:lol::lol::lol:
Percha, You've been incredibly quite what gives? Got your foot in your mouth..or a samich?

[casscityalum]

No!

Nothing like a decent buck to keep the trash talkers on their own threads.:lol::lol:

Percha has been pretty quiet since his team is in almost last place...

Oh yea! where is fish man :evilsmile.

just a little bit of talk towards percha :evil:

[target-panic]

Here's one for the team....... I got him on Weds. night 19th.
Baraga Co. 6 point. Really slow this year in our area of the Western UP. DNR check station in Marquette told me today that deer harvest numbers were way down this year due to sever winter last year, as well as new tag system up there. The Mackinaw bridge count was also down about 20% today when I came across. I saw this buck on opening morning, then never saw another buck until he came back on the fifth evening. Between our camp and the neighbors which comprise about a square mile of private land and about 9 hunters........there were only two bucks shot as of this evening.......mine being the largest.
