As of this morning(9am) 2-deer hanging, Gregg N. & Kevin each have a nice doe. Roger mmmissd a big buck, Tim is tracking a deer he hit last evening. The buck Roger missed was really nice. Java Man has had chances but no shots taken. Ray is MIA till mid-week. That was a very very big buck Roger missed. Papa Shrew hasn't been in the right place at the right time yet. Weather is good (alittle cool 20deg. this morning) , lots of food(Kevin is making his famous ribs tonight),wood pile is getting low(Roger will probably be put back on firewood duty).

I hope Gregg connects. You all would be amazed at how hard he works on everything...his bows, his job, his family. He deserves some good hunting time and luck!

Does Roger still have a shirt tail?

Gus,

I'm not MIA, I'm right here checking on you. I'm pulling for Gregg Coffey. The Tressle stand has some pretty magic mojo. Kevin shot his first deer out of it years ago. I shot a pair of nice does 15 minutes apart in 1999 with my brand new Super Shrew Samurai. Roger watched two spike horns sparring for 20 minutes from that stand one year and I saw the same thing a couple of years later. It's one of those special places that has lot's of memories.

That must have been Roger's heart pounding I heard, I thought it was the neighbor kids car stereo!

Sounds like all is going well so far....well except for Roger but I am sure just being in camp with friends is better than any big buck. How many more days does Gregg have up there? I hope he connects with one. If nothing else I know he is having a great time with some well deserved time off. Good luck again guys!!

Tough luck Roger, I hate it when that happens!

Come on Gregg turn that Shrewmaster loose and bring one home for the team!

did I read somewhere roger missed a good buck?

Update - as of this afternoon no other deer taken, Java man missed a doe with the New Carbon Classic- he said "the bow was so fast that the deer wasn't where it was supposed to be!" Roger had nightmares last night. Kevin made points again, his ribs were even better than last year. Tomorrows dinner menu is chicken & venison steaks on the grill and store bought apple pie, (did you catch the hint Ray?) Weather has been good,next couple of days are going to be alittle warmer with a chance of rain.

Sounds like you are having way to much fun, and eating to much to really be in deer camp:). Keep the updates coming.

tippit · « **Reply #12 on:** October 29, 2007, 08:39:00 PM »

Sounds like a great camp. Keep it coming...Doc

bentpole · « **Reply #13 on:** October 29, 2007, 09:06:00 PM »

Yep great stuff keep it coming guys.

Gus,

I think the boys have been eating well. I've noticed quite a change in daylight hours of late and I think it's because the earth has tilted a little bit towards Shrewhaven Lodge. Greg Nicolaou's wife left me a voice mail last night that she wants to drop off some apple cake and other goodies to restock the camp supplies. One thing I'll guarantee is that there is never a lack of food in camp. I'm heading up tomorrow evening and I'll have 3 solid days of hunting time. It will fly by, but even a little taste of heaven on earth is worth the 5 1/2 hour drive.

Java Man · « **Reply #15 on:** October 30, 2007, 06:29:00 PM »

I'm back.......deerless. I had a great time though. Full moon kept the deer movement down I think. It was my first trip to the Haven of Shrew, so I wasn't sure what to expect.

As far as the food..I gained six pounds in three days, and I don't gain weight! That's without apple pie too!

Ray. I left one of Papa's tree stands in the Tressle tree for you. Take a pad though, cause it's only got a wood seat. Makes the tusch a bit sore after three hours. The Carbon Classic is waiting for you.

Back to work on Bentpole's bow.

Gregg, good to hear you had a great time and glad to see you made it home safe.

bentpole · « **Reply #17 on:** October 30, 2007, 07:30:00 PM »

"Back to work on bentpole's bow" WOOOOFAAAA!! Greg, sorry you didn't wack one.You did have action though. Clean miss!!?? You folks sure do know how to run a camp for sure..

Java Man · « **Reply #18 on:** October 30, 2007, 07:37:00 PM »

Yep, clean miss. The deer turned and bolted just as I was dropping the string. Took me ten mintues todig the BH out of a downed tree limb though!

Arwin · « **Reply #19 on:** October 30, 2007, 08:59:00 PM »

There are a few BH's of mine stuck in trees around the state land near me.
