Michigan opener
« on: September 28, 2018, 04:47:42 PM »
Good luck to all as our season takes off. I'm pretty dialed in and quite confident. Feels good. I'll be in my stand the 1st shooting my N.M. Whisper and Douglas fir shafts tipped with 145gn. Stos. I have a sneaking suspicion I'll need to fire up the Thermacell for a while longer.

Good luck everybody. It’ll be a couple weeks before I can get out but hearing good things on one property. Trying to gain access to a larger piece of land closer to home but won’t know more til mid week. Remember to climb safe.

God luck to all, shoot straight and be safe climbing into and out of stands.  Sounds like a warm and damp to start, but that just means the best is yet to come.  Be sure to post your pics, and stories!!!  :archer2: :campfire: :archer2: :campfire:

Good luck everyone! Can't wait to get going. Unfortunately due to exams I won't be able to make it out for the first week but after that I hope to make it out over the weekend. I've been going out scouting and stumping every Saturday and I'm feeling pretty good about my shooting right now.

Good luck Mitten guys! Opening day of michigan bow season is a holiday for me! I have a tradition we've I take off work hunt the morning abed evening and shoot and mess with bows midday. Us trad hunters can get excited about early season because we aren't always focused on one big  buck. All my compound buddies barely hunt early season and don't start getting serious until rut. I'm excited to put a fat Michigan doe on the ground in early season! :shaka:

Just pulled mine today. Think I may have found a good spot. Fingers crossed!
Just gotta get them coming through in the daylight. (Camera date and time are way off)

I hope all my fellow MI traditional bowhunters have a safe and prosperous season.  LOTS of acorns on the ground in the north woods right now.

Yep, mine too, Jon. I'll be at camp drinking coffee by the wood stove waiting for a break in the weather. Heading up tonight to get organized and get the chili going. Been shooting well, probably end up sharpening my heads for the 10th time. Good luck and stay safe everyone!  :campfire: :archer2:

Good luck to all and safe hunting!

Checked cameras this past weekend and saw plenty of deer at the in-laws farm.  Should be just a matter of time, hopefully.  Be the first year hunting this property and so far, looking good!
