That's all folks

The big game season is over here in the state of Confusion. I just got the one doe. All that is left to hunt is some small game.
My blogging experiment is also over. I have given it a year and no one seems to have found me. Oh well I did not have anything real good to say anyway.


goodbye

firearm season for deer

The Firearm deer season ended today. Not a good season for me as far a freezer filling, but I enjoy every trip I spend a field. I will still hunt some in the late bow season but it is getting real chilly up here and so sitting in a tree stand does loose some of its appeal.

red squirrel VS ruffed grouse

Went hunting for deer this evening. No deer but I did see something I have never seen before. A Red squirrel was munching on the two ears of corn I had brought for the deer when a ruffed grouse came into the clearing and started over to see if the corn was any good. The squirrel took exception to this and attacked. The grouse held it own for a few seconds but the squirrel did not let up and the grouse finally took off to find easier pickings. First round goes to the mammal. Vick's dogs have nothing on these two.

bow hunting

early bow season is winding down. it has been spotty for me. seen a few deer but no shots sense the clipped doe mess.
The firearm seasons begin next weekend and so hope for better luck then. sighted in rifles yesterday and so my shoulder is sore. But it is a good sore.

why bother

We butchered chickens last Sunday, 30 of them, with just the two of us, alot of work, started at 10 am and did not finish until 8pm. we would not raise our own and do all this work, but the meat is better and we know what went into the chicken. We almost do it in self defence.

I have not been doing much hunting, poor weather and Mother's medical problems but, even when I have gone I have been skunked. Will give it another try this evening. Did take the dog out grouse hunting, jumped four but no shots. the dog seem to think that I can shoot further than I really can.

I could probably write more but no one is reading this so "why bother"

cliped deer

i clipped a doe last week with the bow. just clipped her. did not get her. There is a three page story here that is very interesting but since no one is reading this anyway I don't see the point.

Opener of bow

Saturday was the opening of the bow hunting season for deer in the State of Confusion. i never get to excited about getting a deer this early but i all way put in an appearance in the stand opening day. Saw a couple of does, no shots and a small flock of turkey. Ten years ago that would have made the local papers. At that time we had no turkeys and very few deer. All in all it was a good evening on stand.

Then I find out the next day that i had trespassers! It is bear season also and those fucken bear hunter seem the think the they can hunt any where they want. I was told that I had 15 guys, 8 trucks and a dozen dog in on my property. where they shot and took out a bear. i wish I would have caught the bastards. I am so tired of these fuckheads acting like they are above the law. In all the years I have owned the land not once have any of these cocksuckers ever asked permission to hunt. They don't pay the taxes on the land so they should stay the hell off.
