It looks like I'll be hosting my brother for ML season. He's been having some serious health problems and thank God it appears they have it under control.
I'll let him use my smokeless ML. It's about 80 yds. from my tower to where the deer are feeding in my winter oats plot.
Going to be a fun couple days. Ill take him down to the tower in my golf cart and hell it'll be a easy hunt for me to. It'll be a comfortable stay in my heated tower. I don't need another deer but just hoping I can get him one.

Sounds like a fine time!

Not sure on the specifics (I never am), but I imagine that I'll sit with the smokepole for the first half of the day on pressured ground and then sit over food with the bow the second half.

Good luck to all who ML that week. I was upset when I seen Ohio moved the ML season up several days. I have to do the Lima gunshow that weekend and only be home Monday and Tuesday. But it still will be a fun time.

I will be out all weekend. If they show up great, if not no biggie. I havent even put any bait out. I am hoping they got interested in my food plot finally.

Bummer but my brother is down with his health problems again. I was looking forward to going out with him hunting next week. I wasn't even going to take a ML rifle along. Well maybe.

Sorry to hear that MK111. Hope he gets better soon.
I plan on hunting with my SIL and hunting buddies on Saturday. We should have about 10 of us to do some pushes on our lease.

Thanks guys. No one in his family will eat the deer. He just enjoys the hunting. Next year.
His health is more important. Our whole family has heart problems and at 64 his is just starting and it's bad. My older brother who just turned 75 is the oldest male in our family tree going back 200 yrs.
I plan on beating that record by a large number.

I even went to my lookout tonight at 5:45PM and there's a nice large buck in the forage oats food plot less than a 100 yds. from my tower.

Two grandsons 16 & 18 who I've taken both out in the past and they both got 2 deer each with old grandpa.
Their old enough to help at the gunshows now and they enjoy the extra cash. Both want a buck only. Maybe after school for couple hours. We'll see. That was fun. Neither has taken one with a ML and a smokeless ML to boot. The oldest took a nice buck with my 44 mag. handgun.
