MI Early Doe Season
« on: September 18, 2009, 05:10:00 PM »
I'm not in favor of the early doe (firearm) season, but figured I might as well try and enjoy it. The weather was nice and I didn't hear many shots. Used my Black Widow osage PLX TD, Woodsman Elite and Arrow Master quiver.

 

Anybody else been out?

Nice job Denny! It's kinda neat seeing deer "in between" coats.They're still orange here in Southern Indiana.

I'm sure Sitka Gear is nice and all and I'm sure you are getting a good deal but DARN I miss the old DSturgis look!

Nice doe.

That's great...I'm heading out in the morning to hopefully get my first trad deer.

I'm also not in favor of the early doe season but I'm going to try my best to get one!  Always weird bowhunting with orange on.

Joe, the shot was about 15 yards. She probably ran 150 out into a field, but I could see her all the way.

Duckbutt, I have a Sitka T-shirt under the jacket with the sleeves cut off.  :)  It was in the 40s here this morning.

Good luck Josh.

Very good eating right there. Denny - Did you use the glue-on or one of the screw in elites? Mike

That's great.  Nice work.    :thumbsup:  

I don't care that much for the early season, but this morning was 45 deg. and a nice time to be out.  I do like the dress rehearsal time before bow season.  Unfortunately, A mouse ran off with one of my fur silencers for my mojo the night before last in the barn.  I had them off to wax the string. Now my bow is not tuned and the Lost Creek doesn’t have hunting arrows set up yet.  Had to take the training wheels out.  Got one hanging and a happy apple farmer.  Oh well  back to arrow tuning for the bow opener.

Well done...but you got'a smile for the pics....
