Fellas

I try not to think about them to much but it does pay to bare them in mind , I carry a Global IPERB location beacon so that if the worst ever did happen I can let it go sit tight and not move.

If you don't move you can get up to 8 hours if your lucky but if you try and walk out , you will be swapping stories with Fred Bear in no time.

It depends on the time of year naturally enough as to what snake and how many you see , but we don't have that many you are pleased to see any time, that eastern Brown that had a go at me I think is number 3 or 4 in the venom stakes but he is just an angry angry snake and the buggers wont run from you , I think they are most like the Mamba from Africa in that regard and my friends from Africa agree      

At this time of year when its hot every day you up your chances of seeing one , I don't see them every trip I go out but it pays to watch for them.

 

That Brownie would look good on your bow limbs. Alan

This is no joke, respect to you Mercifulsilence

my buddy rusty sent me a pic of shanes kentucky buck. I hope he doesnt mind if I post it here, but man this feller has had a good year. Maybe he will post the story of this one also. I notice that neither buck was from around georgia!

Brent D.,
Where did your budy kill that buck in Kentucky?  I hunted in Kentucky last year with Buck Country Outfitters and had a great time.  Didn't shoot a buck but I will be going back.

Brent,that is a HUGE deer.  :p

I have never even seen a deer that size except in pics on the tradgang. I hope that I could even come out of spectator mode to draw. Shane is friend of a friend and obviously he is one fine hunter. The guy that sent me the pic is about the best hunter I know. Shane dont go telling Rusty that though.

I've had a couple of folks ask me for venison this year and I promised one family that I would do my best to kill them a doe this weekend.  As luck would have it and God allowed, I was able to fulfill my commitment at 3:20 this afternoon when this fat whitetail came out of a cedar thicket and past me at 14 yards.  I managed to take her with a 58" Morrison Cougar longbow, 35-55 GT Arrows, and 220 grain four blade Muzzy Phantoms.
I watched her go down from my stand after a final 70 yard run.  Now if only I could have this kind of luck with the turkeys!!!

Claudia, You are something else           Congrats!

Wow Claudia..you are having some year! Congrats (again)    

Thats two nice does Claudia.

The girl is a stone killer.  I am so glad she lives on the other side of the river or there wouldn't be any deer left in S. IL  LOL

Good going Claudia and for a cause also....

 

I'm new to the tradgang but have been reading all the forms for a few months now and I really enjoyed them. This is my first year hunting with my recurve and shot my first deer back in Oct a nice 6 pointer and my 2nd just this past Sunday afternoon. I had to show you guys the pic. The deer was 15 Yds on the move got a great double lung shot he ran about 75Yd hit a tree and broke off one of his  horns from his skull. I am holding it on with my right hand for the pic.

   
 

Great start!!!

cool pic...and Claudia thats just a dandy story!!!                           :wavey:CONGRATS..well done

Not the best pics, but here is my buddy Dan and I after a day hunting rabbits.  We got 10 of them by 2pm or so, and probably cold have got a lot more.
I learned a few valuable lessons as a new Coloradan.  Never kneel down in the prairie without looking first!  I was pulling cactus thorns out of my knees for hours!!   Also, dont shoot a big jack rabbit with a blunt, cause he'll run 2 miles with it !!
 
 

Titan that sure looks like fun, great shooting.

Nice buck Volsfan!
