Post by: adkmountainken on August 31, 2008, 09:40:00 PM
as Killy would say "treeveal" season opens tomorrow and Bowspirit and I will be trying our luck at the little rascals.  got a quiver full of hope and a beautiful osage bow named War Dog ready for action. will be doing a lot of scouting for deer season as well. can't wait, its the little things in life like this that let me know how good i really have it. mountains, fresh air, good health ( cept i'm a little fat! )and good friends are what its all about. c ya tomorrow with pictures.

Been so excited, I haven't slept a wink. With only half an hour to go before my alarm goes off...I don't think I will, either...

I think you guys should head over to that pond  and see if you can find any swimming with the frogs.   :goldtooth:

it was a great day to be in the woods, not so good if you were to live by what ya shot.  :readit:   Squrries score, hunters get the goose egg! i missed a tree rat twice!  :knothead:   VERY warm and the bugs were bad, i knew headed to the woods this morning it would be tuff as it is still very thick and warm. still a great day to be alive!  :archer:

I love squirrel hunting, there's just something about it that gets my blood flowin', just being in the woods. I don't like heat and bugs though, I'll wait till it gets chilly here in Michigan.   :archer:

Perfect day down here, cool and fallish. Season isn't in yet, though, so you guys win! Saw tons of squirrels playing chasetail and grabnapple, which kept Spirit amused. Wish I could have been up there with y'all, though, nothing like a good chuckle over a treerat's escape!

My son and I made it out after the squirrels today too.  Saw zero squirrels (heard some shooting going on though) but 7 deer.  We wore out a few stumps too.

We saw a couple of shotgun guys in full camo way before they noticed us in our shorts and t-shirts and stuff.  The saw our bows and reminded us that 'only thing open is squirrels, fellas'.

Lol - good to know.

Ken, do you guy's have a lot of squirrels out that way? We are kinda thin on them this year, we think the coyotes are getting them to.

Post by: adkmountainken on September 02, 2008, 08:04:00 PM
there is a lot of them but it is still really thick in the woods, very hard to hunt them.

Dont blame the coyote for the decline thank your Owls and Hawks . Coyotes seem to get the blame for everything nowadays. :(  Art

I like to blame the coyotes, for my lack of hunting skill   :thumbsup:  Seriously Art, I don't see a population explosion in the bird of prey category, but I know that the coyote is a cunning hunter that knows how to survive and flourish in our area. Whatever the case the population has really declined since last year, this bums  me out because this is Joe's first hunting season and I really want to keep him interested in hunting, but it gets pretty tough when the game is not there.
