I don't expect the weekend to be any different than the regular gun season, which means zilch for me. I have to work 7p - 7a Friday, so I won't be missing anything Saturday in my neck of the woods. I'll be out Sunday morning. If it's raining, I'll say fugg it & book a plane to Key West.

Thanks!

The one thing I'm really going to miss is that the bonus weekend has been when my wife has hunted with me the last couple of years. She's never really wanted to shoot one but this year she said she did and she also wants to learn how to field dress it. Oh well...there's next year.

I'm gonna trespass and kill the neighbor's deer. :D

Going down into a holler this weekend with a thick hillside. Hoping to catch one of the big guys slipping through the brush. Gonna take the Millennium and get up 15-20'. Figure if I'm gonna hunt all day, might as well be comfortable! Also, I might wanna take a nap! lol

What else, hosting Deer Camp beginning Friday morning.

I'll be sitting all weekend letting the drivers push them past me.

If I see the right one I may pull the trigger. If not, at least my hands stay clean.

Taking my 11year old stepson back out to the new property we gained permission for this year...He hunted the first gun weekend, and had an awesome 1st encounter with a doe at 10 yds...Since it was his first trip and he had only shot about 10 shells through the gun before hunting with it, we holed up in the "cabin" that is on the property....unfortunately I had him rest his gun on the window sill and that threw off his shooting form and he shot right over that doe's back...He couldn't believe that he missed at just 10 yds....he was pissed about it all day...so we're hitting the range again tonight, starting at 10yds. and backing up to 20yds, maybe 25 (youth 20 ga. smoothbore with bead on muzzle)...He is wanting really badly to fix his miss and looking for deer revenge this weekend!!!

I went hunting during the MZ season 4 years ago 8 days after I had complete knee replacement surgery. Told my wife my crutches would make for great shooting sticks.

Took Garrett to the doctor again today. Third time in three weeks. Poor kid just can't shake this cold for long and it sneaks back into him. Looks like I will be on trespasser patrol and working around the house.
