Figured I take a few minutes here and see how everyone is doing this fall. Although I have close to 6 weeks off, my season has started with family problems and my time in the woods has been very limited.
The other night I managed to put a nice doe down for some freezer meat but missed a easy 18 yd shot at a dumb red fox. Beautiful pelt....Last week my cell phone starts vibrating while I'm bowhunting with the other 2 Tri State Terrors in Jersey. My wife was calling...my 95 yr old mom needed emergency assistance.
Thank God I have good buddies..we were out of the woods and I made the long trek home. Spending the night in the ER isn't fun but my 2 sons helped out making the night tolerable. Things are now shaping up for mom. It's not easy living in a walker...
I'm not hunting tonite, wife and I have cooked her 3 days worth of meals so I can sneak out and bowhunt this week for 2 days. Congrats to those who have "put one down" and for the rest...Keep the Faith, hunt hard and shoot straight. I'll check back in later this week....
Good luck Joe, sounds like you could use some good woods time to get your thoughts together. Enjoy your time in the woods. Hope mom is doing better.

Hope your mother is doing ok and good luck hunting. No luck here yet, had 3 different bucks inside 20 yds. but could not get a good shot. Hap
I'll keep mom in my prayers Joe. My wife just underwent surgery to remove her thyroid. She had multiple nodules on it and they did turn out to be benign, so we are quite thankful for that.
I've been out just a few times as well, but we have a pretty long season so I'll have lots of time.
My wife's daddy is 95 also, but in fairly good health. Hope mom gets well...keep the faith.

Sorry to hear about your mom Joe, sounds like she has a pretty good family support system.......I would expect nothing less from "the other 2 Tri State Terrors"......
Take care,
David
Joe, prayers sent for you and your mom. Sometimes the truly important things like family and health keep us out of the woods, but then our time out there seems that much sweeter. Best of luck.
Don
Hang in there Joe, my thoughts and prayers are with you.
