It's over..........
« on: January 11, 2015, 10:43:00 PM »
Our season ended Saturday, and with a slight warmup today, I took advantage of it. Gathered up some blunts, got the Whip strung up,grabbed the camera and my fanny pack and out the door we went.

  The thermometer inside the screen porch usually reads a little warmer.

Even with the warmup the wind kept it chilly.

That's warmer than it was here in TX today!

We have 1 week left, and I have 1 tag left.

For you that have never stump shot before...when they look like this let them be. They will usually consume your arrow in one way or another. Carbon,aluminum, or wood. These petrified beauties will eat them all up!

Now, here is a stumper's dream. That nice punky orange color almost always is a shooter. Lots of old Cherry stumps in this part of the woods.

Like I said, I'm shooting my Whip today. Beaman 500's with a 185 gr field point with a Grasshopper behind it. About 210 total up front.

So how many of you guys have that favorite piece of woods where you hunt, that one where you just know something is going to happen. This stand of Hemlocks is the one for me.

As I got up into those Hemlocks I stopped for a few minutes and just looked around. Up above me on the flat I saw a deer and then watched as about 8 of them headed west. I tried to get the camera on them but it happened pretty quick.

  Up on the flat.

Have something bright on your arrow when you stump...there not always sticking wood!

Were up on the first bench now and the snow really lets you see into the woods.
