Anyone have any hunts planed or new bows coming in 2010? I'm hoping to draw a SD elk tag and have a Dale Dye coming in March. I'm also looking forward to doing some shed hunting this spring.
I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and the best of luck in the New Year.

Got a Apex Predator bow blank comeing,should be fun to finish and shoot a Hill style bow. Plan to do more stump shoot'n to get ready for the hunting seasons in the fall. Might be looking into a self guided elk hunt in Colorado also. Going to keep some options open to see what comes up. Worst case I'll have to hunt the Adirondacks........ya just never know what may come up!

I'm a shed hunting fanatic. Word around my neck of the woods is that some have already dropped. Based off what I've learned about my area, I start looking while I'm hunting after Christmas. Last year I found a nice 11 point set on Dec.31 and an 8 point set the following day. Keep your eyes peeled.

Finishing up a garage which should actually help my outdoor pursuits immensely.
Traveling to Montana to present to the MT Trad Bowhunters in January. Threw my name in the hat to run for officer of NE Bowh. Assn. (fear we will face some tough issues soon and want to be there to help; was president of the same back in late '80s). Hoping to make my first PBS Banquet in late March.
Shed antlers and turkeys in spring (emphasis on the former) here in NE, hopefully several shoots and lots of camping/fishing with daughters in summer, and then in the fall good chance it will just be NE deer. My daughters are at the age when I just don't want to be gone any more than I have to be and the NR hunts my have to be put on hold for a few years. At least until the girls are older and don't want to talk to me anymore. :)
-
Develop our 46 acres of flood plain/woods into a great hunting/fishing spot. Creek crossings,trails,stands,shack(on stilts) etc. Almost to thick to hunt so should be fun "Carving" it out.
Elk hunt maybe Montana(draw with 1 point now) and try and Hunt OTC in Colorado again.
Attend as many trad 3-d shoots as I can so they keep having them.
Continue to improve right handed so I can bust a deer one of these seasons.
Get more fit.

A U S T R A L I A
This will be my third trip. I don't know exactly where yet, but am working on it.
My first two trips were three weeks each, but were specifically for red stag, chittal, and Mellville Island buffalo (serious action there!).
Unfortunately, neither of the hunts coincided with good pig hunting, and next to big bull elk, hunting big pigs are my favorite thing to hunt with a bow.
This time, I am going specifically in pursuit of BIG BOAR. Me and my 75-pound Wesley Special (the same one I killed the two buff with) are hoping to get eye-to-eye with some big toothy boars, and if I can work it out, maybe some goats or something else fun to hunt.
I have a friend down under trying to help me to figure out where to hunt. The main thing is that it will be almost three full weeks with boots on the ground and arrows on the shelf in wild Australia. I can't get enough of that place!
To heck with fenced-in Africa, four star lodges, and fancy cooks------a small tent, a tarp, and a billy can are all a guy needs for a great hunt Down Under!
Oh---and croc repellant. Gotta have croc repellant. Anybody invented that yet?
-
All depends on Utah, New Mexico, and Oregon draws.... :pray:
-
I knew that Barry, I was just testing ya' :rolleyes:
Got it fixed now. Actually, I'm extending my trip into April by pulling the camp trailer along with us and heading somewhere warm when the convention is over... :cool: Don't really know where yet, but who knows, maybe some turkeys or hogs will need hunting somewhere. :pray:
-
Michigan Bunny Stomp the end of February to raise a pile of dough for St. Judes. Spring Turkey in Michigan, Black Bear in Quebec with Tom Phillip's and his crew. Can't wait to have a good time and meet some Tradgangers :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I plan on actually going hunting considering it seems like almost every weekend this year has been spent doing other things. I have barely spent any time in the woods and if you compared it to previous years it would be none. Good luck to you all.
