    LIVE! From the Stand 2022-2023 Edition

    Itching to get out but this weather sucks. Maybe do some morning hunts this weekend. There’s still a big one daylighting that I would like to get a crack at.

    Let's talk socks

    Bought darn tough socks for an out west trip. Only kind I will wear for hunting now. Also have some of the lighter version for working around the farm.

    Well that’s a wrap. Yes, deer hunting is stupid. Froze my ass off today. Unbelievable I saw 28 deer work through this bedding area today and not one of them was the buck that I had on camera in there 2 days ago. That’s hunting. Back to the stick and string.

    Lol it wasn’t cool today. Had to piss sitting down. Damn button buck walked under my stand in the process. Pretty stupid he never freaked out.

    6 does and an 8pt that bedded 70 yards away. Two of those does were ancient and tried their best to bust me. Fortunately they didn’t. Haven’t even been able to enjoy my coffee yet and might piss my pants if this buck doesn’t leave. Actually not as cold as I thought it would be this morning.

    I’m in. Made an aggressive move and went into a good bucks bedding. Winds good. Of course it’s loud as hell and deer blew at me on the way in. Definitely made me second guess my decision. Oh well going to ride it out all day and see what happens.

    That’s a lot of deer

    Who do you use J? If I remember correctly you aren’t too far from me. I usually do my own deer but I like to get some sticks and trail so I take about a deer per year in. I’ve used the same processor for 20+ years but they aren’t appreciative of the business because they are so swamped and...

    We’re in. 4 pt and broke up 8 pt so far. Winds swirling and they both spooked. Good luck guys!

    FLORIDA HOG HUNT 2023

    Looks and sounds awesome. Hope you guys have a blast. Wife is due the second week of February so don’t think this could be a real possibility.

    Great morning. Saw 12 but none of them were the right deer. My spot went dead in the afternoon. Possibly due to the swirling wind. Still hunted my way out and had a nice 8pt push a doe past me. Seems like I’m in the twilight zone. Every deer is in the 120-130” range or less. Well it’s on in the...

    Sorry to hear that. Been dealing with some of that myself. It definitely stings. Sometimes big deer making hunting less fun but some times they put you on cloud 9. I’m sure those genes are around your place and will show up in the future! You must like misery though because duck hunting in Ohio...

    Thought it was going to happen this morning. At first light I could hear a deer working in. Saw him at 75 yards going into bedding. Read the script just the wrong buck.

    Rushed home from work. Walking to the stand and see deer in the field. Crept to the edge and and tucked against a tree. Couple does worked through then a real nice thick wide 8 pt pushing a small doe. He was facing me so I said I’m only shooting if he comes to 40 and is broadside. Of course he...

    Youth Camo.

    Bought my daughter an outfit from rural king last year. Believe it was Lincoln outfitters and she loved it. Also have gamehide coveralls which she liked too.

    Little over 200. 40 is fenced in with cattle. Another 40 is pretty hard to access and he didn’t venture that way.

    Yeah given he’s an old timer (decorated veteran as well) we are just trying to find ways to make it work.

    Yeah I tried to explain but I don’t think he exactly gets it. My dad directed him to a different part of the property and asked him to stay away from everyone else. Tough situation because he is an older gentleman that we respect and don’t want to be rude. Definitely thought about telling him to...

    So little bit of a dilemma and would like to hear your guys opinions. There’s 3 friends that hunt our property other than our immediate family. Everyone picks their spots and stays generally in their area. We try to do this as we don’t do drives and the properties surrounding us are pretty...

    Couple does and a nice young 9 pt that I would love to see in two years. Wife is coming to pick me up now to help her. She put a good one down!
