Here's a few scenes from TBG Cohutta 2006 Hunt.

Tuff hunting, lots of weather changes, great food and better friends......


Yep, this is lunch time.....and time to head down the Mt for some visability to even hunt.

   


Definately a knot conglomerate

   

Full size wallow showcased by Dan....

   

Yes, we have proof that the sun did shine one of the 4 days....

   

I told ya we had great food.....the wheelbow guys next door were amazed that we actually do kill things with our bows.....Buff Burgers, Antelope Steaks, Antelope Tenderloins, and Elk Tips.

Hello everyone. I've been lurking for awhile , finally got something to post. Used my Matlock Predator X2, cedar arrow from Milt at Wildcat Canyon and a Magnus 2 blade. First and last elk with this bow, I have to switch to left handed shooting due to eye troubles.
It was fantastic to have this bull walk by me just 8 feet away, "Never mind that lump next to the oak, I'm looking for that cow". When he had passed I turned just hoping he wouldn't spook too badly. He jumped, ran a few steps and stopped at 20 yards.
He was a "pit-bull" among elk. Broken tines, both recent and old scars on the shoulders and neck and a fresh tine hole on his forehead just below the left antler. Heavy antlers but short on top. It was an honor to share the mountain with him.

Noelkman, it looks like you might have to change your handle, eh?  Congratulations on taking such a fine bull!  Eight feet, huh?  Great stuff!!!    :thumbsup:

hey guys, here is a pic from last winter of my first harvest with traditional equipment (except for a few carp) im pretty proud of it and thought i would share. what i think adds to the story a little more is that my father and i were both successful that day, and we were both shooting super kodiaks.

Great work Fireman and nice photos as well , thats a very nice way to get the season open , now its time to get the seasoning out and get to work on all that meat.they are both very healthy looking heavy girls.

Were you hunting from a stand or off the ground ?

well done I hope your season continues this way.

Simon, thanks! Both deer went to relatives that LOVE deer jerky, so they are fixed up for now...plus they give me a bag to boot!!! Both deer were killed from 15' ladder stands. Good cover this time of year with the leaves still on! I have some trailcam pics of a nice buck, I'm hopin to see him in the daylight, from my stand!!! Here's a look....

Mate I can see why you might like to find him in the day time , best of luck to you , that would be a grand way to use your tag.

He is nice and tall and even It would be great to get at him before he gets to do to much fighting with those tall tines Hey !

I have only just started to give stand hunting a go this year , its not that big here in Australia but I have had some good hours up off the ground and got my first deer from it a little over a week ago.

Good luck on the big buck I will watch out for a photo of you counting those points.

Simon.

Went out for archery opener today. Saw one that is probably 130-140 class. He kept his distance beyond 45 meters, and walked off onto posted woods. I'll be back, and we have four months of archery...

Realize though that there are no deer in Ohio. Hunt PA or MI. They both have too many.

Although this isn't the best photo in the world, here is a pic of the doe I took with my Osage Widow on September 25th.  I took a second with Rover Gal Hope yesterday (30th), however,  that pic is posted within the Faith and Hope thread.  Now all I need to complete the package is something with some headgear!

I shot this rabbit on August 19th...my 18th birthday. It was a dead-center shot at 28 yards. Couldn't think of a better way to end the days excitement...
