A Neat Place To Sit....
« on: January 29, 2012, 12:15:00 PM »


I think only Tradgangers will understand this....I was tromping around this morning looking for rabbits with Daisy. I found this walnut tree, and couldn't stop myself from sittng in there. It is bigger than the pic looks, big enough for me to sit comfortably. I think I will have to sit in there this fall, or maybe this spring for turkeys (there were turkey tracks wandering right by it). I put the antlers in there for size, I found them 100 yards away, they are a maturish 6 point rack. It was a fun morning.

Ya that would be a great spot, add a few small pieces of brush and you have a great blind.

To find a buck skull with both antlers still attached is quite a find. Clean the antlers up, put the antlers on a plaque, hang it on a wall and you've got a nice conversation piece.

Hey buddy, that looks like a nice spot. Take one dose of your Armstrong Creek Ghost, one Trailmaker head and call the turkeys in the morning(when season arrives of course).

We need some rabbit, beagle and bow pics too there sport?!    :readit:      :D

Spike some carrots with Irish Whiskey and lay them out in the evening. It should make for slower bunnies in the morning!    :laughing:
