Any hunters here?

I’ll let you know after my muzzleloader elk hunt next week.

The only buck I saw during my deer hunt would have been illegal to shoot ( on the road, and I’d seen and talked to two game wardens the previous day, so they were watching).

These days, the 'big bossman' (owner/Pres), is pretty much retired and his son (owner/VP), runs the show. He hunts out west occasionally, so he knows that there's several employees that like to hunt, so he makes it work where those that deer hunt, can at least have one of the two weekends of deer season (firearm), off work.

These days, I'm too out of shape to be dragging a deer out of the woods. "IF" I go deer hunting, I either go to my friends farm or, 'road hunt' (drive around in hopes to see a nice buck or doe out in the open).

If all else fails, the route I take to & from work each day, follows the Minnesota River so, there's a good chance I'll smoke a deer with my Silverado or Yukon.

what do haul for the co-ops,?,around here it's mostly corn,soy beans,sorhgum ,carrots,squash and pumpkins
I assume you haul asphalt or aggregate for road construction

oh and green beans too

I’m a hunter.

In years past: Africa, Argentina, Alaska, and the American West. Locally: deer, pigs, ducks, dove, geese, quail, prairie dogs, coyotes, bobcats, rabbit & squirrel.

I ranch, so targets of opportunity in the form of varmints and hogs are a daily occurrence.

Merry Christmas to all members!

So far this deer season: A 9 point buck and two doe. Southern Ohio fatties, about 120lbs each. The buck was 150lbs. Numerous squirrels have fallen...

I missed one with that Blackhawk I posted on the first page, because I can't see the sights anymore. I sold it, and my Wranglers, and got this;

This morning sound like a war zone starting @ about 05:30. There were probably over 50 rifles being fired as the sun started to come up. After about 45 minutes, it stopped.

Reminded me of New Years Eve in years past.

Just got back from Saskatchewan. Hunted ducks, geese and sandhill cranes around the Saskatoon area. Had an incredible time. Shot a total of 325 birds between five guys. Shot our limit of sandhills both days we hunted.

Definitely a hunt to remember.
