    Game straps

    I don't know if any of you have seen the game straps that you can buy in the stores and online. I believe they are mostly used on geese. I just can't warrant spending that kind of cash on something to carry a dead animal. Although I did buy a duck strap when Gander Mountain was closing...

    How are y'all still married?

    I don't know how you fuggers are still married and can afford bird hunting! I'm in Xenia for work and probably just committed suicide when I checked out at Cabela's. Wife will murder me! In all seriousness though, when you are looking at new gear (second or third hand is fine for me) where are...

    Opening day of dove

    I just went and scoped out the dove fields at Berlin. I'd love to get a group of guys there for opening day/weekend. If not I would be willing to travel out to meet a group elsewhere. This field is set up nice with the power lines above the sunflowers. Plenty of water around. Walk in isn't bad...

    What arrows and broadheads are you shooting this year?

    Picked up some new arrows from Gander Mountain the other day. Nice deal since the door is closing there. Had them cut and glued up today and ran them through the paper tuner. These things shoot like a champ out the box! The picture looks like there was a bad arrow in the top right, that is just...

    Using landowner tags on private land (not mine)

    The farm I hunt has put in for a nuisance permit. I was reading a little about it online, but I was wanting to see if any of y'all have had actual experience with it. The owner's sentiment is he wants the deer gone by any means, but I am not sure what the legal aspects of it are. I know the...

    Should I be worried?

    Hey guys, I was working MN not long ago and was able to pick up some pheasant wings. I have been tying one to a canvas dummy and throwing it out for my 4 month old lab. My worry is that he sometimes won't let go. Tonight he actually got the feathers off the dummy and put a death grip on it...

    Mongolian Venison

    Hey guys, Just a recipe to share with you guys. I made this for dinner tonight and it was really good. I used bottom round and think it was the perfect cut for this. I did cut the brown sugar back a bit, and if it wasn't for the picky eaters (2 yo and 8 yo) I would have liked some red pepper...

    New bird hunter

    Morning guys, I've been stalking around the deer forums here for about a year now. I am wanting to get going on some birds now. I hunted duck and doves a little as a kid, but never a lot,so I am pretty inexperienced right now. Just got a black lab puppy from the breeder and he is just over 9...

    First ohio deer

    I'm not exactly proud of the shot placement, but I'm proud of the patience I showed this season. This has been the first season I've actually hunted in Ohio and the first time I've hunted deer in over a decade. I was lucky enough to be granted permission to hunt the farm we get our milk from...

    Just my luck

    I wouldn't wish my luck on anybody. I am still trying to get a read on deer patterns at the farm I got permission to hunt this year. I've been set up in a spot by the garden and saw one that the farmer spooked out of bed. My little girl was in the blind with me, so that was cool. This morning...

    Placed hands on a yearling

    So Sunday I went to the farm for a morning hunt. It was a terrible idea . Bugs were bad and I sweated my ass off. I ended my hunt early because of an encounter with a yearling. It was pretty cool. I was walking a treeline with the climber on my back being extremely noisy. I was pouring...

    Just got permission to hunt private land

    So, I just got permission to hunt on the farm we get our raw milk from. If any of you are interested in raw milk and how to get it without committing a felony, let me know. The farmer has a doe that is eating the hell out of his garden (certified organic, no chemicals) and of the 6 hunters...

    Any professional shooters here?

    I figured that would get y'alls attention. I bought a Bear Cruzer this year. I thought I had it sighted in pretty well and haven't worried about it since the season started. I finally got around to getting some practice in today and I am consistently getting impacts about 5 inches left of...

    Berlin Lake

    So, for all you native guys, has anyone in the history of mankind and deer hunting ever killed a deer at Berlin? I'm hunting near a cornfield that was planted on the WMA. I got apple trees and pear trees, oaks and hickory trees with great crops, some water, and a metric fugg ton of deer tracks...
