    By now most areas are in deer season. We've had a couple of weeks of archery, muzzle loader season starts this Saturday, then after Thanksgiving rifle season starts.
    I haven't done any archery hunting, but I'm heading out this weekend with my FIL. I'll have my ML and he'll be using either his compound or my crossbow.

    Trying to get some of these:


    Hunting under the land owner provision I can harvest 3 doe per day and 3 bucks per season.

    How has your season gone. Show your harvest or pics from your stand.

    I saw a bunny rabbit and 1 squirrel this past weekend, To say I'm disgusted is an understatement, I have wild dogs running my little spot.

    It's getting cold up here in Maine, rifle season started on the 1st. The deer are moving around more and more. My uncle shot a nice doe on opening day. Other than that I have not heard of any other.

    Got my first deer yesterday, a small doe. I now have roasts in the freezer and some ground venison for making jerky & sausage.

    Sad part is, I was not ready to reload (muzzle loader season) and just as I was about to get down from the stand 2 8-pt bucks came running up and decided to hang out near me. Just as I got reloaded, and ATV nearby started up and spooked them. Oh well, I'll get one of them next weekend when rifle season starts :)

    I also caught this little guy on the trail cam:

    Tally so far, 2 deer and 1 turkey. Processed them and am eating them often. Looking to reap a couple more at the very least. Pictures? I have to almost be beaten around the head and shoulders to the point of serious blood loss before I ever take a picture. Just is who I am .... sorry

    I'll have to look at it next time I go. I know I got it at WM for like $50.00. I have another one, WildGame, I think is the maker that I don't really care for.

    @Gator 45/70 - The camera is a Tasco from Walmart, couldn't find the exact model, but I remember paying $50.00. I get better images and battery life from this camera than I do one I paid over $100.00 for, go figure.

    image. Had this guy walk within 75 feet of my front porch two days before the season started. Can't find him now. He is not typical of what I see around my place.

    Didn't know you were crippled, slow and obvious! (just razzing you. Nice when you can shoot 'em and butcher 'em in sight of esch each other. Makes less work to drag 'em.[winkthumb])

    Well, doubt I will get out anytime soon, unless the contract on our house falls through (and it's looking like it will). Moving at the start of the season sucks! Opening of Muzzle loader season was this weekend and I spent it clearing out my garage :( I MIGHT get a chance to go next weekend, but it's going to depend on the status of selling our home.

    Since apparently everyone is having the same luck as I, how about some humor...

    No, Not this one.
    The exit is large and graphic due to the ballistic tip hitting bone and exploding.
    Lets just say, I could pass my fist in it. lol

    I've been told, recently, by a former fur processor, that 'yotes are worth @$150. 00 each. I was surprised to hear they were worth that much.
