    road hunters

    To a degree - everyone here is a road hunter. if some would rather sit and drive than walk- for whatever reason - get over it! if you are watching for animals while driving to or during or from a hunting spot - guess what? I'd rather have them drive and keep going than distrupt the areas i hunt !-- They can and sometimes do move the animals for my benifit! So let those who want to sit and drive enjoy their hunt as much as you enjoy packin into remote areas! If they are bothering you - you are not far enough away from the road!!

    What did I do wrong?

    Amanda - great video of trail cam pics - I really noticed something I've been saying all along- Some" older " bulls drop antlers very early - it shows a bull with no antlers on 2-11 and by 4-09 he's already showing good growth - all thru into may and on the 26 th the picture shows huge antler development - hes still got jun - july and august before they are suppose to start rubbing off velvet - . did you move the camera or are there any pics of when he may have been rubbed clean. i've seen big bulls with great antler growth - up to 6x6 velvet in late may - while turkey huniting and some scoff at the idea fof the antler development that early. Finding spots to mount a camera - out of the wind - which direction it faces is key but as Amandas clip shows the angle of pointing down can give you both at once , less chance of a windy day clickin empty pics and no need to worry about the direction of the sun! I'm a novice trail camera guy and it takes time to learn a few things . Everyone here has been great in offering advice and seeing others pics helps a lot - - I know i learned a few things -
  7. be carefull out there - big storm brings big changes to the hunt! hope everyone has a safe trip!

    Hybrid's update!

    VERY COOL so nice to see this stuff actually happening - thanks would be nice if they produced a buck this yr.
  12. Roger is a lucky guy! We all get hung up on "TROPHY" I've drawn a few trophy tags -and have taken a few trophy animals- We all want to fill our tags but i can attest to the "whats he score"bug. they ole - if its not a monster - I'm gonna eat tag soup.- havent gone that far - yet I use to shoot the first buck but after actually taking a "trophy" -it changes you - I've had a lot of tag soup over the yrs.- not so much looking for another trophy but letting some of the little guys grow up. I got a feeling that if I'm lucky enough to draw a Strip tag - I will catch the bug agin. Great write up- congrats on your trophy buck! on my recent wisc deer hunt- I passed on the last day on a 3 " pencil buck - i just couldnt pull the trigger . i had passed on forky's waiting for the big guy known to be around---. heres what i was waiting for!

  15. cva could date 30 yrs ago - i made a kit .50/54 back then- excellent accurracy out to 100 yrds using round balls and 100 grains of pyrodex powder! avoid black powder and itshard to find! to shoot - balls -(pre lubed) patches)- powder/ and a measurer - caps #11 - bullet starter to have around - nipple wrench - ball puller/ patch puller and a cleaning jib. speed loaders come in handy. i just gave/sent everything i had for my cva and the gun back to hunt in muzzy camp/wisc. - it stayed never shoot more than 3-4 rounds before cleaning barrel - they have a bore cleaning solution and get extra white cleaning patches to clean the bore to keep shooting or sighting in!- to clean and put away - always just clean with HOT soapy water- when hunting or sighting in - always shoot a cap before you load it and after you've cleaned the barrel between sight in shots - to make sure the nipple is clear i always blow the barrel before i reload between shots too! goosd luck - what unit did yiou draw for your HAM hunt?
  16. or should i have said what we knew but was ignored!!?? http://news.investor...m#ixzz2Be6LplFA WHY ROMNEY LOST = "He was never the right candidate. Plain and simple. The anti-Obama vote got him close but it wasn't enough. He wasn't a sweeping vision candidate. People weren't voting so much for Romney. People were voting more against Obama. It's tough to win that way."
  17. WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States reversed policy on Wednesday and said it would back launching talks on a treaty to regulate arms sales as long as the talks operated by consensus, a stance critics said gave every nation a veto. The decision, announced in a statement released by the U.S. State Department, overturns the position of former President George W. Bush's administration, which had opposed such a treaty on the grounds that national controls were better. On Wednesday Obama Took the First Major Step in a Plan to Ban All Firearms in the United States. The Obama administration intends to force gun control and a complete ban on all weapons for US citizens through the signing of international treaties with foreign nations. By signing international treaties on gun control, the Obama administration can use the US State Department to bypass the normal legislative process in Congress. Once the US Government signs these international treaties, all US citizens will be subject to those gun laws created by foreign governments. These are laws that have been developed and promoted by organizations such as the United Nations and individuals such as George Soros and Michael Bloomberg. The laws are designed and intended to lead to the complete ban and confiscation of all firearms. The Obama administration is attempting to use tactics and methods of gun control that will inflict major damage to our 2nd Amendment before US citizens even understand what has happened. Obama can appear before the public and tell them that he does not intend to pursue any legislation (in the United States) that will lead to new gun control laws, while cloaked in secrecy, his Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton is committing the US to international treaties and foreign gun control laws. Does that mean Obama is telling the truth? Obama and the truth have never met. He is the most consummate liar there is. What it means is that there will be no publicized gun control debates in the media or votes in Congress. We will wake up one morning and find that the United States has signed a treaty that prohibits firearm and ammunition manufacturers from selling to the public. We will wake up another morning and find that the US has signed a treaty that prohibits any transfer of firearm ownership. And then, we will wake up yet another morning and find that the US has signed a treaty that requires US citizens to deliver any firearm they own to the local government collection and destruction center or face imprisonment. This is not a joke nor a false warning. As sure as government health care will be forced on us by the Obama administration through whatever means necessary, so will gun control. Please forward this message to others who may be concerned about the direction in which our country is headed. We are being led like a lamb to the slaughter (Socialism/Dictatorship).

  20. i HAD TO PASS THIS ON!! The election is over, and this is my message to those who voted for Obama. Congratulations to the Democrats and Young People! You now own it. The next terrorist attack you own it. Can't get a job after graduation, you own it. Sky rocketing energy prices due to Obama's EPA shutting down the energy producing states, you own it. A nuclear Iran, you own it. Bowing to the Soviet Union, you own it. Another severe recession, you own it. A volatile border with Mexico, you own it. Trouble getting good health care, you own it. Higher heath insurance costs and health care costs, you own it. No budget, you own it. Our allies mistrust, you own it. Another trillion of debt, you own it. More Benghazi situations, you own it. No one willing to join the military, you own it. Trouble getting to loan to buy a home, you own it. More dependency on food stamps, you own it. Trouble finding good employment, you own it. Several part time jobs instead of a good job, you own it. A World Government, you own it. The UN governing the United States instead of ourselves, you own it. A Senate that will not bring any legislation to the table rather it is "Dead on Arrival", you own it. China controlling our world trade trampling all over us, you own it. Loss of our freedoms as we have known it in the past, you own it. A dictatorship instead of a democracy that follows the Constitution, you own it. Less take home pay and higher living costs, you own it. Driving a car that looks like a toy, you own it. More government corruption and lies, you own it. More toleration of extreme and fanatical Islamists, you own it. Terrorist attacks called work place incidents, you own it. Your revenge instead of love of country, you own it. President George Bush is out of it now, and there is not another good man for you to vilify and lie about. In a way I am relieved that another good man will not be blamed when it was impossible to clean up this mess you voted for. Have a good day. God bless the United States Of America! God is our hope now. _________________________

  24. A woman was playing golf when she took a big swing and fell. The party waiting behind her was a group from the White House that included Obama. Obama quickly stepped forward and helped her to her feet. She thanked him and started to leave, when he said, "I'm President Obama and I hope you'll vote for me this November." She laughed and quickly said, "I fell on my butt, not my head!"
