That is a hell of a buck! He would be one heck of a consolation prize. He is bigger than the Turk

"Supposedly guys name is Chris plain. Again I’m going off of stories but stories are same. He drove around looking for people he knew who hunted, didn’t see trucks and went in to kill this deer."

"His brother acknowledged knowing this deer last year on a FB post."

"Yep. I have an acquaintance who hunted with them and says rumors are true to his knowledge."

"Owner of property to our north heard the shot at 330. He was back at his barn. He hunts but was out for midday lunch."

"This guy dropped j to creek on north side far enough up and walked all the way down to the two properties north of us and shot it on the east side of creek."

"Right at the corner of his(Bell) across from Scott and right on Vince’s line."


That totally sucks! F-ing poachers.......

Tom don't know anything about "ehd" but is there any thing that could be feed in off season that would help prevent the disease ?
Cheers NC

I did an all day sit yesterday at one of my spots, it’s a pain to walk back into but usually worth it.
Passed a shot on a 140ish 8 point at 60 yds as he had a snapped off G3 on his left beam.
What a bummer, first legitimate shooter I seen this year.

I still follow my Dad's advice. Shoot the 1st one you see. That's was back in the early 70's in PA. I still follow that advice. That's maybe why I've never killed a big buck----But I've ate a lot of venison. Dan-- Happy Thanksgiving, Bob

Really enjoy and appreciate the 'live from" threads.
Hope your patience is rewarded in spite of Turk's demise, Dan.

I think we all battle the bad eggs out there, it gets old.
Thankfully our season ended last night, done with the 'windows down' road hunting horde!

Hang tough, tomorrow might be the day....

Been hunting a different property my cousin has leased hence seeing more deer in the past few trips.I had to miss yesterday afternoons hunt but he had a shooter in and ran out of light to shoot so there remains tempered hope that some thing good may still come my way....back at it this afternoon

Good Luck Dan!


The chances they come, and the chances they go.
But the time. You don't get that back.
