    Ohio Bobcats

    I think there were 3 grays on my last yr - one had a half a tail but it was teased out and fluffy, another carried it folded up and over like a Pomeranian. Everything is a little different near Athens i guess. lol Last years was relentless with coyotes and two bobcats (General Tsao and Robert)...

    2025 EHD?

    Hunted (aka bird watched) Athens last week. Horrible at my place.....saw a spike in three days an heard a dwind hater (think it was a doe and fawn ive had on cam) on the neighbors. Not ideal conditions but seeing corn and food still there tells me the nightmare is real. Have noticed a localish...

    Alpaca Socks?

    Theyre awesome- great warmth, no stink but theyll pil quick, take burrs/seeds in deep and the pile/loft of impact areas like the heels will eventually flatten them fast.....or at least the ones i have bough from local alpaca farms...

    Hemp Rope Licking Branch

    In my portion of se OH, I have found Beech and Basswood limbs to be beat ropes and vines...another is stealing an existing scrape branch and affixing it elsewhere Loose dirt below, belly button to chest high, vertical and in a logical spot (hub, dwind of bedding, entry to food, ridge, etc)...

    Curious what do ya think a hunting blind should cost?

    Depends on window layout (IE-archery) and it is raised. A subset aspect to consider is transport and assembly....every wants a box blind, many in those thermal hubs in the woods that are an epic PIA to get anything but a quad to. MY pricing system for anything is go on Marketplace and CL and...

    2025 EHD?

    Great to read. Were you guys on a changed/droughty weather pattern when it hit? rebounded? Any advice for folks on the front or backside of a hard hit like seOH?

    2025 EHD?

    Just curious- am i the only one who is pissed no agency or group is doing anything about a long term, or even short term, address of EHD? Have heard "ma nature is trimming the herd" "because of baiting" "non-residents" and all this horsechit but this is smashing deer alll over the US (we just...

    2025 EHD?

    Athens and Annihalated - not decent bucks found but a bunch of does and fawns- one two yo and one yearling. Missing the two best ones I had until the second week of August so I can only guess theyre feeding flies.

    Deer Drone Recovery Cost?

    Know a few guys that have used services, as stated above, 3-500$ appear the norm. The go to DJI Matrice IR setup is for sale by them for 13k, but have seen it elsewhere for sub 10k and other capable droves for 5-6. The ones for 2-3k are not going to work out. Guessing they will be far cheaper...

    Waterholes

    Gonna be forthright here and say this is definitely more about hunting opportunities than it is keeping everyone hydrated. Figured the same on their hydration coming from green plant tissue....and like xbowguy, i know too many folks that swear by it (like even being better than plots, etc)
