Title: WI ARCHERY HUNTERS! SEASON IS ON!
Post by: longbow fanatic 1 on September 16, 2013, 09:19:00 PM
Wisconsin Archery season opened September 14th. I can't wait to finally get out on my days off! How many of you have gotten out? Has anyone had any successful harvests?

I wanted to create a page for those of us who hunt Wisconsin. Please post your fun encounters, funny experiences and successful harvest pics!

Been out, have a nice doe in the cooler, resting for a couple days. She was the only deer I have seen so far this year.   I presume there will be more sightings, especially after the leaves start to fall.

Good luck on your hunt.

Good luck guys.  My little brother had a small 8 point all around him all day on the opener.  Rained out on Sunday.

Haven't made it out yet, although does, fawns and turkeys are showing up fairly regularly in a food plot at the back of the farm. It was 28 degrees this morning and made it into the upper 50s during the day. Trees are just starting to turn. Gotta get out soon.

I hope to spend some time chasing a fall turkey.  I hunt public areas and find that turkeys are a bit skittish, however, I have been somewhat successful using a boom stick in my past, so I am excited.  I can also go during the week now so I expect a bit less human activity.

Good luck all

I was out dark and early sat morning. It is such a pleasing feeling getting all your hunting gear together and hitting the woods. There was a good moon position but I saw no deer.  I did however hear a deer blowing on my way out of the woods.  Busted me! Darn they have good ears and nose.  Lets hear from all you sconies out there.

I'm going crazy.  

Months of waiting and then deer, skwerl, turkey, goose, sturgeon and others open all at once !
