tjhunt2 Report post Posted March 10, 2013 Put up a trail cam or just follow their tracks to the bedding ground and take a rope to lasso them and they will probably fall off. TJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NM_Shedder Report post Posted March 10, 2013 I have thought about trying to lasso antlers off off deer during the shedding season. I almost did it last year when this buck was in my yard like 4 yards from my porch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biglakejake Report post Posted March 12, 2013 Really would like to borrow a trailcam-just for the backyard if anyone on the mountain wants to set it up. i know the cow/calf/spike patten and beds but the bulls are anybodys guess-and the rez fence is only 2 miles away. lasso? i was thinking more of hanging gillnets from the trees about 7ft off the ground......lol. a bull got caught in the neighbor kids portable basketball hoop and destroyed it along with a big compost bin last week. any africa hunters on here please send plans for those pygmy death pits with the spears in the bottom ok?...if these beasties eat my pepper patch in june i'm gonna start digging...... lee Insanity runs in the family-it practically gallups!
