 Soliman Auricular Allergy Treatment (SAAT) shows success in treating Alpha-gal. Do do a web search as there are several articles covering successful treatment variations.

This is of particular interest to me as over the last 18 years I've dealt with 6 cases of tick borne diseases while working around my farm each Spring and Summer.

Anyone use a sit drag for ground hunting? The only review I can find are for folks using them as a saddle. I'm not interested in that. Seems like it would either be great or suck.

Thanks for posting your hunt up Mark and sharing it with us.  Those kind of hunts mean more (to me) than others.    

Can you cut some length off the arrow? Then you can add more upfront weight to get a heavier arrow. I like a heavier arrow, but, you might not. Good luck

Well done Mark! There's not anything more special in my mind then having a successful hunt where you were introduced to hunting as kid!

I appreciate all you guys!

That was an excellent write up of your hunt. Very cool that you were able to take that buck on a special piece of ground. Congratulations and thanks for sharing with us. Good stuff all the way around!


 

I tend to read, listen and learn on this forum, but this post got me. I too get to hunt a special piece of land.  Just a small wood lot, but it's beautiful and I've put the effort in to add some small rye plots. Anyway, I wish I had a photo to show. But I missed a small doe yesterday evening, so it was nice to read this and see the photo. I will be back out this evening.  More determined than ever.

Congrats Mark, glad you still get to hunt that special property.

Unless its frigid temps you need to check or focus on feeling them on you.. as far as my experience they dont go dormant just freeze up a bit till it warms up,,,,, me and wife were at a neighborhood variety store we parked at edge of lot so small dog could pee,,, he didnt even leave the concrete and putting him in car we seen he was covered in ticks!!!   I shined light at parking lot surface it was infested.... someone told as the night cools the ticks head onto the warm parking lot.

When you go home after hunting or scouting your clothes have to go into a sealed bag to keep any ticks contained then take the hottest shower possible.
