I swear it’s been blowing 30 mph for two weeks straight. I’m in. But this wind really fuggin sucks.

Skunked tonight! What a bummer.

Doesn’t get much better than that!

Wind is turning NW. Just saw two more young bucks cruising through. As much as I’d like to stay out here, I think this wind is doing me more harm than good… potentially hurting our chances for the evening hunt. Think I’m gonna have to bail.

My son and I had some action last night with a couple bucks that just didn’t come in close enough for a shot. I’ve been out this morning since 8:30. I thank the good Lord for Goretex today… this wind would be brutal without it. One young buck cruised by at 8:45 and a lone doe walked by me at...

That sounds to me like the folks in your little community responsible for managing those grant funds aren’t holding up their end of the deal. A fault of theirs, not the granting agency. Personally… with two small children of my own… I put a lot of value in access to high quality public...

I should have removed the “smartass” undertone when I typed that. What I meant to say is, this grant is probably (most likely) not tied back to the Division of Wildlife. It’s probably from Division of Parks and Watercraft. The article definitely left out some critical information. Then...

You guys do realize that ODNR is a huge entity with like 12 different divisions, right? One of them being, PARKS and Watercraft. This most likely is NOT your hunting or fishing dollars being spent.

Me and the little man are out for the evening sit, a perfect wind in our face, overlooking a greens plot… hoping to put an arrow through his first deer ever.

Do it! Your kids would have a ball helping you too!

Explain to me how expanding and adding a playground in your hometown community is a bad thing, please…

Glad I’m not the only one. Up here they make excellent eagle food. Toss em in an open field and the eagles clean em up before the buzzards even find them sometimes.

Last season I used the traditional logwood dye and then dipped my coil spring traps in wax. It worked well, but was a LOT more work than this speed dip. Fingers crossed that it works just as good.

Good stuff man. I guess I had muskrats on my mind and I wasn’t even thinking of raccoons! I do like trapping them too… just wish they were worth more than zero dollars.
