Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting It's coming........

Rattle rattle rattle.......snort, SNORT! Scrape, scrape, SCRAPE!

Go to time hunting. Where's knife my? Sleep why I can't? Time it's kill to something......

Jacks to open, trips to win.

Drank who the beer last?

Day tomorrow Opening!

Oh yeah, just bring it, baby.

Go back to bed. It's not here yet. You can't grunt and rattle until October. DUH!

Oh,its definitely in the air all right.

went and signed up to the rifle range again, after a hiatus of 5 years.
I belong to two gun clubs, now.

elsewhere, the acorns are like carpet under the oak trees, squirrels are running wild.

apples are laying everywhere.

the deer are fattening up, velvet is drying.

the time is now, to get loads worked up, scope screws tightened
clothes washed(sort of),brush saw and hunting knives sharpened.

scouting trips are in order, with these temps, the mosquitoes will be way down.
if your going to apply for an antlerless tag, going to have to buy your license in the next week or so.

schools starting in a few day.

Id say its here.

the temp outside this morning,is 47`.

anterless deadline is two weeks.

I saw 6 bucks on my way to work this morning. 4 were together, all BIG velvet racked 8pts. It's been a while since I've seen bucks around.

Funny enough, I got the email I was drawn for the Anoka Co. Park hunt as well.

It's not here yet though...Got a few months. Temps will be in the 90's yet this year.

But GG is right, it's coming...it's not here yet. I've not yet torn up coat rack, but I did chase a few interns around the office.

I went past my bow hunting spot a couple days ago and there was a doe standing on the folk's front porch eating flowers out of a planter. I'm afraid I might have to take the collars off them over there before I shoot them.

Why would the homeowner wear a collar? What kind of joint are you hunting!!?

Your fiance' told me you ALWAYS wear a collar Tom........

Great post.

Was 47 degrees here Monday morning.

Went up into the woods this afternoon and added some branches to a ground blind I use, (can't fall out of it.)

September 15th for me.....its coming.

Got my son's wedding to get out of the way here in a couple weeks, and then I can get back to focusing on hunting. Chomping at the bit to get out in the woods.

We switch off.

I'm not it's too early. You're not helping!

I put up a trail cam in the woods in early July. I've been thinking about that trail cam for weeks now. 2 reasons.... 1 - is it still there since it's on public land? 2 - are there any deer on it? It's probably just bears and wolves but I can't wait to see what's on it.

There were a fair amount of tracks on in the area when I was there so I'm impatiently waiting until Saturday afternoon to go get it!

Once small game season gets here in mid-September, my mind will full blown lost.

Now,now! There are still plenty of flies and mosquitoes. Bugs. Need to die, leaves need to fall, and grouse need to die. THEN it will be time.

says he who is headed off for elk in ten days!

I aint done fishing yet this year, so stop talking about the rut. We got 2 more months. I wanna catch some chanell cats yet. Then I wanna go grouse huntn with my son. Then, go bow hunt.
