Curt (Guru) and me is goin' huntin'(pics. Added)

[Shawn Leonard]

Thats right, next weekend is our opener in NY and I have invited him up to hunt the whole weekend. I have all my stands in place and I even went out and hung a couple for that guy that shoot wrong handed. I have one more to do. It works out good though as my dad is a lefty too. We are gonna have a sit in the morning and the evening and during mid day we are do some turkey huntin(Curt bring the DB)on one day and the other day we are gonna hunt pheasant mid-day. I think Dad will carry a gun and Curt and I the bows( Curt, Bring some blunts or judos or bird points and some flu-flus)It will cost ya $30 bud, as we have to split the cost of the birds. It should work out nice as I have enough area to hunt as not to disturb our deer huntin'! We both will be carrying our Kwyk Styks and I hope one of us or both have some hero pics. to post. I am sure with Curt there will be plenty of photos either way. It should be a blast!! Wish me luck(I did not include Curt in that, as he had enough of it.)(LOL!!) We will keep ya posted through-out the week on our preperations and such. Have Fun!!!! Shawn

I should mention, that if the wind is right Curt will be huntin' the RailRoad stand.It is called that because it is less than 100 yards from the 5th. largest Rail yard in the world. It is a permanent about 23 ft. up in a huge oak. The stand is huge as well 4ft. by 6ft. all 2" by 8"s and pressure treated. I have shot several bucks from this stand and I know there is a good one bedding near it. Dad will be in the airport stand, and me in the old school stand, as long as we do not get a wind out of the east, we will be good.  Shawn

David, I wish you could make it. You were supposed to be here ya know. We will make some memories when ya come down during the rut!! I am pumped. I saw 53 deer on weds. evening and most were on property I hunt. Shawn

[Shawn Leonard]

David, I am saving a stand for you. No one will sit it until you come down to hunt. If we get a north wind when you are here, it is about the closest I can gaurantee a shot as they come. Last year I hunted it 3 times and passed 10 different bucks and countless does. I shot a buck from it and my future Son-in-law(Damon)you met him at the bunny hunt shot a deer from it as well. Shawn

Thanks guys, the weather has finally turned and it is raining right now and about 35 degrees cooler than it has been. I hope it stays cool for the next few weeks. It has been so warm and dry the deer just do not move until dark. Shawn

My one and only goal for this trip is to be there if and when Mr. Leonard gets his fisrt deer with the bow.He told Shawn this summer that he sure would like to kill a deer with a bow before..well..his time is thru.I sure hope we can make it happen this weekend,so I can be a part of it!!!
