I hear ya on the scope. I shot the other week to find out I wasnt even on paper at 100yrds!!! 30 clicks left and 30 clicks down we were back on +-1" @ 200yrds. I still think someone screwed with my rifle for it to be off that much w/o dropping it.... Look into DNZ(dead nutz) mounts. Its a one-peice aluminum base and I and others have been very pleased with em...... |
Well done on the Woodies, people that dont hunt them or see them fly have no idea what an accomplishment a bag like that is. They are FAST, squirrely and hard to hit. There is a pile of them that fly over me every morning in a stand on our gas line and I need to have a shoot one day. We have a swamp they roost in and they come over LOW out of that swamp. I keep saying Im going to and never do.
|
Yea my buddy hunts regularly in ARK and says if you get good on Woodies in SE Georgia you'll be the best in the group anywhere else you hunt. I learned alot huntin them this year, I just gotta work on gettin em outta the air a little better......simple right???
|
My brother and I hunt Arkansas too. Where do you like to hunt there?

Like Button
Went hunting for the bulls-eye doing some target practice. I know it ain't hunting but it put a smile on my face.
To all: Keep up the good work, I really enjoy your posts in this thread Stink, your a brave soul, you are going to have to go to sleep at some point and well, snip snip with some scissors Lorena Bobbitt style.. Have a good vaca, sounds peaceful and I am jealous. |
Hoyt Charger
Didn't see a Hoyt bow mentioned in the thread. My son's been shooting one of these and is trying to talk me into going in with him on it. I've been thinking about doing some bow shooting and out here in Oregon, the bow season is way longer than rifle season. Anyone have any experience with a Hoyt Charger?
|
Three years ago I was looking at the Charger and the Spyder (aluminum riser) and I was much more impressed with the Spyder. It was smoother and quieter at the time. Over the past 5 years most of my hunting buddies have made the switch over to Hoyt because of the quality of the product.
I was lucky enough to be demolishing a house at the time and was able to salvage enough scrap brass & copper to pay for the bow. |
Well, my son bought the bow and he likes it so far. I haven't shot it yet but am looking forward to it. Thanks engstrom for your comments.

Yahoo!! My brother and I got drawn for a bull moose this year. It's my favorite critter to hunt and call in.

Just started my 2015 hunting season. I've been out for bull moose my brother and I both got drawn in a zone with some biggies around. Almost had one yesterday it was in at 30 yards no shot presented. Just like they always do he only stopped with a tree blocking his vitials. I have the rest of the week off to bag one hope to report back with some game photos. Here's one of the country I hunted today.

Got er done!!!!!! Got this nice young bull at 25 yards 100 grain rage slip cam through the ribs. He made it a whole 30 yards before tipping over in one of the niceest setting I've had the privilege of witnessing. Now to get the smoker and sausage stuffer working.

Was out last Friday with my brother and son for a grouse/moose hunt we got a Ruffled grouse and 2 1/2 year 30" bull moose. Among a hand full of mistakes he made the biggest was stopping brode side at 25 yards and having a 100 grain muzzy slice through a lung and the top end of the heart. It was a nice clean kill with a thirty yard recovery.
|
You are one lucky dog to live in such beautiful country with an abundance of game. Congrats, looks like a good eatin' critter - not too old and tough.

Kalum and I were out putting the sneak on a nice whitetail buck Sunday morning. I was getting set up for a shot when I noticed this guy thinking the something I was about the deer. Do the deer got a free pass on the day and Mr.wolfy didn't
|
Please come to NJ and shoot whitetail, they are like rats, giant rats that eat shrubbery and smash into cars.

Buck down one shot with the 243 and off to the sausage stuffer
|
I gota tell you Thats One Awesome BUCK!!!!!!
Good for you, along with a shot that will get 100% of the meat processed. |
You Guys are doing it right, raised my family on Pheasant, Chukar, Grouse Turkey and especially venison. To the tune of four to six Deer a year.
This year I went to hunt with my family on their land in upper Michigan. Did not see a legal Buck the first two years and Does everywhere. This year after the three biggest Bucks on the land were taken by family during Bow season I decided if it's a legal buck "if it's brown it's down. Off hand 80 yards while moving to a different spot, saw him before he saw me. http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...psoy381zap.jpg http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...psoo1116do.jpg http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...psbzmyo2f6.jpg http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...psegl573ql.jpg http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...psqdmb6eim.jpg As Martha Stewart say's " It's a good thing" |
Congrats Willy the good old days may be past us but with good health and the grace of God we should be able to harvest at least one good buck a season.Hard work, clean living and knowledge. Enjoy :clap:
|
Nice buck I'm a little jealous of that tasty sausage. I'm slacking I'll get my act in gear and do up a few batches next weekend. What rifle/cartridge are you using looks like a perfect shot placement
|
Thanks Guy's, Redneck I was shooting my CZ Manlicher stocked 30.06. Love that gun.
|
That's one fine rifle you have there CZ is one of my favourites. I own one in a .22Lr and plan on adding the CZ 17 Hornet to the collection this spring my dad has two of them 22Lr/22Mag. :beer:
|

if i ever go north of I-10 aagain, i'll definately take you up on it
thanks |
Nice buck Willy. I got two this year and haven't been back. Got an 8 with a nice symetrical rack and another ? pt with a big 4-by right side and funky under developed left side. He was a 165 lber. Actually the day before I hunted that morning and had him come in before shooting light.
I waited patiently for more light and thought I had enough so I let her rip. The next 2 hours would prove I totally missed as I found zero blood or sign. I thought since I educated that deer I'd never see him again. Lucky for me it was the middle of rut and this guy was not paying attention in class the previous morning LOL. Wish I could post pics. I will eventually when I get around to buying a laptop. |
BTW loving my 1 hp Cabela's grinder. I've got about 60 lbs of ground in 1 lb packages in the freezer. Between surf and turf I'm set. :deer:

You done good Shane:beer:

Your killing me with the Moose stuff my friend, love it and need to go hunting for it this next season. Just cant wait any longer
|
I took a small 5x5 bull elk at 25 yards with my bow on Friday with my father calling for me. It came in silently and gave me a broadside shot the rage broadhead did its job perfectly. I double lunged him and had a 200 yard recovery. I'm trying to upload a picture but it wont let me.
|
Congrats way to go!!!!!!!! Quite a achievement with a bow!:clap:
|
Well done, took my 6x6 with a Longbow. 12 years ago. Love it
