Any Hunters out there?

[Diesel Grinch]

I go pheasant and 6 day deer in NJ. A buddy and I are going to be looking into spring turkey and maybe waterfowl this coming year. Also talking about doing some bow. :cb

I'm a duck and goose hunter. Here (http://www.clubstogie.com/vb/showthread.php?t=48436) are a few pics and stories from last year. :tu

Bow and gun for deer, bear, and sasquatch

[Diesel Kinevel]

Shooting rabbits over some good beagles and deer are my two big vices this time of year.

[Benz_one]

I am mostly a dove and duck hunter. Hope to try deer hunting this season.

Dove, Duck, Goose, Deer, Coyote, Bear, Turkey. Favorite is Goose. Spend about 2-3 days (mornings) a week in the field whacking geese. Me and our 3 man goose crew have shot a total of 311 geese so far with only about 2 weeks left. :mad: Oh well, can't wait to shoot some coyotes, I'm not real experienced but there is just something thrilling about hunting the hunter, I hope to learn much more this year!

I just couldn't hunt Coyote. The whole dog thing. I couldn't bring myself to eat it. The rest I have no problem hunting. Never went dove hunting. I think this would be fun because I heard they are fast and hard to hit. Only problem is they are so small and all the work of cleaning them. Duck, Goose, & Turkey are on my todo list this coming year. As for Bear this is NJ. Everyone that doesn't have bear walking into thier backyard gets to tell you that we don't need a hunt because we don't have a bear problem.

I haven't hunted since leaving Alaska, I may take up turkey, grouse and quail hunting down the road.

[jmcrawf1]

Dove, Waterfowl, Squirrel, Rabbit, and I'm hoping I get to go deer hunting this year. Land access is a pain in the ass.

I hunt duck....

[vintagejc]

I love to hunt deer. I only got away for 4 days this year, so empty bag, but I did get to see a few.

[yamaha6000]

No, you don't eat the coyote, just skin em and tan the hide. Never shot a bear either but its still fun being out in the woods. No luck getting a deer this year either.

[discdog]

Hunting only GA this year. Deer,dove, squirrel. Weekend before Thanksgiving I got a four point with my pistol. which is about the only way I hunt deer now.
Dove is a lot of fun - fast and lots of shooting most days. I like to squirrel hunt just to kill time. Not as much into it as I used to be, just the opportunity to get into the woods.

[jpa0741]

I love bow hunting deer. Here is a thread I started this year. There is a pic of the buck I shot this year on page 9. I know it is not a trophy, but pretty typical of the bucks I see hunting public land. I am heading out in a couple weeks to do some muzzleloading.:ss

Just use to eating everything I hunt down. Too bad uncle Bob didn't know that before we played man hunter.:D


The six day hunt starts this coming December 3rd. Go out into the woods freeze for the day and hope something walks by. Still better than working.

Deer and turkey hunter here............:D

[kjjm4]

I hunt for just about everything but waterfowl and turkeys. My favorite hunting is going after rabbits with my beagles. I used to coon hunt too, but my dog is too old now to do much.

[Cigar_Dan]

yeah I hunt as much as I can.....1st year in a while I can hunt the whole deer season.....but deer, duck, squirrel, dove, and whatever else runs into my bullets

[Diesel Grinch]

Was out this morning by myself with no dog pheasant hunting. Had one fly over but it was too high for a shot. Other than that heard some shooting but didn't walk into anything. Sucks not having the dog. Only have him on Saturdays.

Still better than working.

No Doubt!! :tu

[kjjm4]

I finally get to go deer hunting tomorrow. Our rifle season opened Monday, but I had to work all week :mad:

I still have three vacation days left, I'm debating whether I want to take them after Christmas (muzzleloader season is open then) or next week.

[cigar_040]

I finally get to go deer hunting tomorrow.

Same here.........good luck !!

[Diesel Grinch]

Well my deer hunting was a bust this year. Just saw doa's. Went out a few times. Well it was still better than working. Looking into taking my bow education class this coming year. Anyone know anything about bows and what I should look for?

[billybarue]

Haven't been out in a couple of years. I like to crawl into a tree stand and smoke a cigar in the early AM with some coffee. You can tell I'm a serious deer hunter. This lets the dogs sleep in so they're ready for the real fun - quail, dove, snipe. Got a buddy in Florida with a couple thousand acres in central Florida. He's got about 15 feeders year round and it seems that is the only way to keep any amount of wild quail on the property. They are sure having a lot of trouble and seem to be gone in most places in the south.

On the property He'll take any nuisance gators but I haven't been around for that.

Holy Carp, pretty much ends any reason to post more deer pictures. Wow those are two awesome deer.

Congrats

[smokinpoke]

I really want to start next season with my son. He is getting older and we need to spend more quality time with each other.

[Diesel Grinch]

That's just rubbing it in. :r


Now that's some great hunting.

[ToddziLLa]

Opening day of the second split was Saturday and it was one of my top-five hunts! We had a 6-man limit of geese, around 25 mallards, and 3 pintails. Bad weather = great hunting! Action was steady for over 4 hours.

Mmm banded birds.......Do you hunt a private lease?

[Dusty]

Deer here. Mainly bow but I'll go during rifle season with my uncle everynow and then. Haven't got to hunt much this season (had like 5 term papers due on the same date lol).

[smokeyscotch]

Turkey Hunter. Used to be a huge quail hunter. No longer have Bird Dogs.

I'll see if I can dig up some pis.

[ToddziLLa]

All we hunt is private land. Too much hassle with public land hoping you are there first, etc.

True that, nobody pulls those kinds of bags off public land around here.

[HoggyO]

Waterfowl and Upland game here, Not a bad pheasant season this time out...moving more towards preserves for my chukars,hen and ringnecks...

[Diesel Grinch]

Went out last Saturday for pheasent. Didn't see anything. Heard a few shots. The dog hurt it's leg so we didn't have him but I don't think it would have helped much. Those with dogs weren't putting anything up. Still had fun.:chk

Love to see the pics guys.....................keep 'em coming.

[ButchA]

Deer and turkey here. I tried duck hunting once and froze my a$$ off. Those waterfowl guys are seriously dedicated, hardcore, or just plain nuts! :r

[EveryPipeDotCom]

Not a hunter ... But would like to see some pics of your hunting trip :gn:BS lol

Due to YouTube compression the detail is low...but the full-res version is flat-out AWESOME!

Christ!! I just pooped a little..... :dr


Hunting over corn doesn't count as baiting?

Just another example of how decoys and mojo's repel wildlife.

WOW, thanks

Nope! We hunt the corn fields and marshes in the early season and then the rivers in the late season when the little bodies of water lock up.

[Diesel Grinch]

Looks like some great times.

[ToddziLLa]

Had a good morning! 5 mallards, 1 black duck, 1 shoveler, and 3 geese.
