journal

This year I plan to add waterfowl and deer to this thread. Going to use it as a true journal. More of a talking out of plans, ups/downs, and to bounce ideas. Hopefully I will bring the camera more and use it (Curran is my hero). Looks like the opener is going to be interrupted by work. It...

3-12-13 Bought a 3 pt. disk today. I decided to put in a food plot for the 1st time. 5-1 Spread fertilizer today. 5-14 Sprayed Roundup weed killer on food plot. 5-28 Sprayed Roundup weed killer again. 5-29 I bought a 5 ft. 3 pt. roto tiller today. 5-30 Disked and roto tilled 2 ac. Due to...

I have been putting off starting this but since all the cool kids are doing it I figured I would start. Work, family, and more work has dictated my pre-season thus far. I have done little prep. I have been shooting as much as possible but even still it has only been 2-3x per week. Not...

This season will start as last season ended, pursuing the buck of my dreams. I didn't have a journal last season, so a little history for those that don't know it. I have hunted a buck that I call Splitter for the last two seasons and will be in hot pursuit again in a few weeks. Well actually...

My journal is now setup and ready for a season full of excitement. It all begins tomorrow with the first stands going up. I'll have my almost 4 year old with me so it will no doubt take twice as long to hang stands! But it will be fun, and we're both excited. The almost 2 year old is staying at...

So today was the first time since shed hunting back in February since I have stepped foot on the far side of the river. I wanted to check on the apple tree's and make sure the wind storms over the summer had not damaged my stands. I also cut in some shooting lanes that had new growth that was...

Might as well get it started. This summer has been a little different so far. Normally redcloud and I would have been out shooting groundhogs, setting stands, scouting ... traipsing around the woods every other weekend. He decided to take a different approach this season and hasnt set foot in...

Hung my first stand of the year yesterday Like Jesse, I figured since I hung my first new set yesterday and been running some cams since a week or two before turkey season I better just go ahead and start my journal now. It really helps me stay motivated and the time line documentation really...

I was just wondering who keeps a hunting journal? I have been wanting to do this for a number of years, but just havent started one yet. I think this is the year I am finally going to go pick one up and write everything down so I can look back at it when I am older. I also think it would be...

Huckleberry Finn's Hunting Log 2011/12 Hours Hunted: 11 Deer Seen: 14 Stands Hunted: 2 Deer Harvested: 2 (does, bow - Saw nothing tonight, sat for 3 hours. Got bored. Almost got cold. It was wonderful. I'm looking at the weather and thinking about hunting a different property...

10/01/11 An opening in the family social schedule appeared on Saturday morning, and having not yet been out on stand there was virtually nothing that was going to stop me. Well, if it was raining really, really, really bad I probably would've slept in, but other than that I had a few stand...

I'm home with a sick kid today and with more rain outside I don't have much to do. So, I figure I'd start one of these journals and throw my hat in the ring. I haven't been out in the woods on my own yet. Every hunt has been with either one boy or both. We've done three hardwoods hunts and 2...

Well, seeing that we are T-minus one month until the season, there is no time like the present to start keeping tabs on the way the season is going. It is no secret who my target buck will be this year, but that doesn’t mean I’m not looking for a few other bucks I have some background with...

For those of you who are baseball fans, or for any of you who just might be curious about how my high school team is doing, I thought I'd throw some updates at ya. I'll post, good or bad, as we go. If anyone else on here is involved in ball of any level, yes you Jesse, feel free to add how...
