Hope you guys have a good time and enjoy yourselves. Please post up some pics for those of us who won't be able to make it.

Noticed on the weather forcast that Wed. is supposed to be rain, rain, rain....

Is there a place around the camp site (open building or something) to get out of the rain?

Troy

Charlie, Tony left this morning but will ne back tonight or tomorrow, he's taking some stuff home, his tent colapsed on him about 3am because his stakes pulled up, it rained all night but it's beautiful day now. Cold morning so deer shoud be moving early, still a little windy.

If anyone is interested i will have my hitman longbow with me that i might do some trading with if anyone is interested. It's 55@28

Call me wimp or whatever, but if the heavy rain is still on for Wed. as they are calling for now I want be over until Thursday.

Troy

Wimp! Lol that's why I brought the shotgun, that's for rain huntin. Lol tony brought his. I jumped 2 woodcock yesterday shot a squirrel and tony jumped a grouse.

Matt,

I figured you'd be the first to jest me...     Guess I do have the advantage when it comes to hunting. I can pick and choose my days to hunt.    

Troy

Matt,

I heard you guys have been seeing some deer the last couple days. Is that right?

If it rains, I will be holed up in one of the big tents! At least we covered up the wood so it will stay dry. Maybe I will bring my canopy. Never used it yet. See you guys tomorrow evening rain or not!

Tony,

Sorry about your tent bud. Hope mine is still sitting ok!

You guys may have more target animals than you expected. Apparently about 50 animals got out of an Exotic Animal Farm last night in Muskingum county near Zanesville. I guess the animals include lions,tigers and bears [Oh My] as well as wolves and cheetahs............

Just heard that story. Could be interesting! I might have to raise my stand a little higher in case the giraffe comes into my area!

Yes grizzly wolves lions and tigers are running loose, bring you shotguns and slugs, seriously we were told by aep to keep watch and have a loaded gun.or big handguns.

I haven't seen any heard a few and tony and jimmy saw some and brad saw one. I have only been out twice.

Charlie can you grab some extra wood, what I brought won't fit in my stove so I put it in the wood pile.

I had planed to do quite a bit of ground blind hunting. With all this going on I may just perch by butt in the trees with the squirrels.    

Wouldn't it be a hoot to be sitting in your stand and have a grizzly ot tiger come walking by?    

Troy

I can try to get some matt. There is a small lake between my house and the shed I keep my wood in!

There may still be a monkey on the loose - you guys get extra points if you bag it.

Guess I better bring my cannon

Sounds like you need to change the thread name to "2011 Traditional Safari".

Best of luck and may the weather man change the forcast for you guy's!

The monkey has herpes so will be counted as "dangerous game".
Buckeye Hunter how high are you going to have to raise your stand now?
