    Squirrel Doggin' 23-24

    He’s a nut. Quit trying to find any logic in his actions. He obviously thinks the taxes he pays and the paper issued to him from the government actually means he owns the land. I don’t know how man can own the ground that will consume his bones. I’m just happy Slick escaped unharmed.

    Yeah, he was back a bit. He had trouble seeing his pins in the blind. You can bet he hit exactly where his pin was setting, unfortunately he couldn’t see it well enough to know where it was. Maybe he should have held off with the difficulty he had seeing the pin…. He learned from it. It’s...

    Additionally, if people have to look at an animal lingering on this side of heaven, due solely to their stupidity, there is a chance they will think twice before making the same mistake again. And by mistake I mean choosing to take shots they have little chance of making a clean kill. I’ve...

    I’d be all for everyone that wants to bow hunt in Ohio having to take Bowhunter Ed - everyone. Unfortunately, our DoW is not going to require anyone to take it. They are scared to death of making it difficult in any way for people to take to the field to shoot deer. Never mind the fact...

    I’ll add this too; Ranch Fairy, regardless of being annoying is right. Dr. Ed Ashby did the work years ago to show what an effective arrow is. RF is preaching the Gospel of Ed. We owe it to the animals we hunt to deliver an effective arrow. I can promise you I get better penetration and...

    Bowhunter Ed… I’ve said it repeatedly for 25 years. I will keep saying it.

    I’ve flown three farms in the last couple weeks just getting an idea of what is there for the landowners. I had another scheduled for the morning but the landowner had to cancel. I can tell you, personally, it’s more fun for me to observe the animals and help landowners form a plan for the...

    The DoW has received a number of complaints. The vast majority of which are from hunters feeling their space has been violated by drones flying over, likely searching for wounded deer. @The Ghost of mrex could expand more so. It’s a new technology and technique for game recovery...

    OO2 2023 Ohio Buck

    No. The deer was located at about the farthest point south. The blue diamond is where an orgy was taking place. There were two nice bucks involved in that party and I marked them so we could look them over more closely. Cole’s buck was not involved in that party so we were pretty sure he...
