    I’m back, to the forum and hunting

    Well. It’s been awhile, life’s been crazy but long story short- couldn’t hunt much or at all due to access and life being busy for almost 3 seasons. But now I’m back at it with time to enjoy the sport again and a good spot to hunt. I dropped a deer off at a processor and saw Mad Max’s card for...

    Central Ohio taxidermist

    Can anyone point me in the right direction? I just picked up my buck at the processor and I can’t fit his head in the freezer. I was planning on tossing it in the freezer and dealing with it next week sometime but I’ll have to take it somewhere Friday or this weekend. Freezer door will not close.

    Joel’s 2019-20 season

    A little late this year but I’ve been busy and haven’t seen much deer action yet. I started off this year about the same as last, pretty unprepared but plenty excited as it got closer. My daughter went through a few months where she said hunting makes her feel bad and she doesn’t want to do...

    POSSIBLE "The Hunting Public" workshop in Central Ohio

    I've been emailing back and forth with the guys from "The Hunting Public" about coming to Centerburg, OH for a scouting workshop. They posted something on Facebook about looking for places to do this and I offered a place. So far we're just working out details and seeing if we can get enough...

    Central Ohio taxidermist?

    Hey guys. Who knows a good taxi in Central Ohio? I need to find one for my daughters doe. The lady I took my last two bucks to did good but took almost a year on both. My daughter doesn’t want to take her doe there and I don’t blame her. I don’t mind paying for quality work and I don’t mind a...

    Joel and Abby's 2018-19 deer season

    This year I'm focusing on getting my daughter her first deer first and foremost. She's hunted with me three years now and has only had one opportunity to shoot one and passed the crossbow to me instead. That was 2 seasons ago. We've rarely even seen a deer together since then. I did try but...

    2017-18 Deer regulations

    Looks like next year's deer hunting regulations are set. It's on the ODOW page but I couldn't figure out how to link just what I was looking at on my phone.

    Why are these bucks hanging out together?

    I was just driving back from a friend's house down the road. Directly across the road from my stand, probably 400 yards across a cut cornfield, there was a group of four bucks together. Why are four bucks hanging out together at midnight next to the road the night after gun week ends?? Any ideas...

    Joel 2016

    Going to try to keep up on this and I think it will be nice to look back on at the end of the season. I was going to start a journal earlier this season but there hasn't been much going on other than watching squirrels. As kind of a way of taking note of when and where I've been hunting...

    FOR SALE Handguns, couple rifles

    I have some handguns and a couple rifles I've decided to sell. I will get some pictures up by the weekend but I figured I would see if there was any interest for now and make some time for pictures later. If you see something here you're interested in, send me a PM. I've dealt with a few toozers...

    Scope for Rossi lever action 45 LC

    I had a heck of a time getting a scope base for the Rossi 92 I bought off a fellar here on TOO. They were out of stock everywhere for months and I almost forgot about it for awhile. Decided to check a few sites a couple weeks ago and bam, they all carry them again. Got the rear site off and new...

    Joel's 2015 buck

    Alright. It's been a long day but I like reading and telling these stories so I wanted to put something together here. I've been hunting pretty much every chance I get since the opener. It's been slow so far and have only had a few deer encounters. Literally 3 deer so far this year that were...

    Hunting accident, be careful!!!!!

    I just got off the phone with a good friend of mine. He told me that Saturday he was shot with a crossbow and is lucky to be alive. He was hunting and had some family in from out of state. Saturday evening he was hunting one side of a ravine and another guy was hunting the other, both in...

    Joel's 2015 season

    Was thinking about starting one of these and I'm sitting here thinking about my season and plans so why not. I've been out hunting just about every day since the season started. Might have missed 4-5 days total without any hunting. On half those days I probably messed with cameras or stared at...

    Joel 2015-16

    Nothing real exciting yet. I see the tail-less doe ("Luck Lucy") is still around and with twins this year, a new one I guess I'll crazy "Crazy Rack" and a small 8. There is a big bodied deer with a wide rack in the background of a few pictures that I'm hoping is Rudolph. That'll be my third year...

    Anyone have a Hornady manual?

    Hoping someone has the Hornady reloading manual handy. I went to Cabelas to get some powder for 45LC. The selection was pretty thin so I had to look through several manuals and finally found data for something they had in stock. The powder I had to buy was IMR4227 to go with the Hornady XTP...
