I have had a bunch of stuff going on lately and did not have a chance to check out a spot on private land that I have access to. So this afternoon I went over there to make sure I still was good to go with the land owner. After talking and catching up he said all was good and he's been seeing some deer around. I took my bow and some judos and took a walk. One spot that I had several close encounters last year still holds promise. I fixed up last years hides and put in 2 new ones. No matter which way the wind is I can hunt this spot now. Touched up another blind and shoot a few stumps.....not a bad 3 hours.

Ron, i have read about your hunting and even seen pics you have posted for several years now. If anyone ever deserved to shoot a deer this year, its you. I sure hope this will be a good year for you and you get a big one!

After last year being a year of hell due to health.

This year is shaping up and I am doing the same thing, I walked and spent a good 2 days checking out ground blinds and just shooting a few stumps.

I wish all get a good deer this year and enjoy each day spent out in the woods and please all be safe.
you should see how I use to shoot

Good Luck this year Ron. You definitely put the time in so this should be your year. From what Ken tells me you could hunt with a different bow every day of the season.   :biglaugh:

Bill, Glad your health is back to a place where you can hunt again.  Good luck this season.


What Ron forgot to tell everyone is that he had a few Cardiac encounters on this property last  year.  Funny how deer at 5 yards on the ground can do that to a fellow  :readit:
