Buck selfie from last night!

Oct 29th

Just a little too small. Fun encounter though!

Bucks were moving.

Sat Monday night with the cold front coming in. I didn't see any deer but Eric sat the whole day on the same piece and saw 5+ bucks include 3 shooters one of which was very big. Unfortunately he wasn't able to get a shot on one but was able to harvest a doe. 

Hunt 3

Saturday morning sit only held one doe sighting.

DIY: European Skull Mount

I made this video last fall and never uploaded it.   Here is how Eric and I do our European skull mounts.  I also recommend using rain gear or waders when power washing it is messy but fast.   Note: If you use the boiling technique it will disqualify them from most record books but if your deer is that big get a shoulder mount!

The rest of the night in 30 seconds.

Finished my arrows!  I got all the tools recently to do my own wraps and viens. I got tired of the ones from the stores. In my opinion they always come in greens and yellows which are poor colors for the fall. I wanted something more flashy so I can follow them to my target and find them afterwards.  It was an enjoyable project to work on.  Here are the specs: Easton Full Metal Jacket 340 tipped with G5 montec 100 grains. Finished weight 460 grains with the new bow set at 65lbs I'm excited to see the new setups penetration performance.  I'll be in the woods tomorrow stay posted!
