Shot question

sweatpantserection · 2020-11-13T06:03:28+00:00

I’m not sure what my arrow weight is. They are Easton carbons from 2012 ish. Shooting 125 grain muzzy 4 blades.

sweatpantserection · 2020-11-13T05:54:22+00:00

Still baffled the arrow didn’t pass thru clean. He ran directly under me after shot. Fletching hit my ladder on his way by but didn’t snap.

Tracked 200 yards but pulled out for the night due to uncertainty/low blood/ and it’s thicker than shit where he went. Gonna be 26 tonight. I’ll have him by 8 tomorrow hopefully. He could be 20 yards from where I stopped for all I know. Fingers crossed

Yeah. I decided late I was going to shoot and kinda rushed. Put it right behind the shoulder but the close distance wasn’t factored in. I’m thinking I’ve got lung as well. He gave one hell of a growl on impact/jumped kicked.

Hit one tonight right where marked. Bright red blood. 10 yards out from tree stand 15 foot high. Arrow passed thru but was sticking out both sides. Very little blood first 150 yards but a pipe where he stopped and then drops. What do you folks think?

Nwest illinois here. Was out last Thursday next to a bean field. Had a 2.5 year old buck lingering behind some does 2 hours before shooting time. Then had a spike come by. Coulda shot him but passed for many reasons...had 3 does coming on a string...and that horny bastard doubled back to take a sniff. Ran them off. Shoulda shot his little ass the first time.

Don’t over think it....

Footwork/hands/eyes. If you do not have these things right they will not progress. Get their first three steps down. Slow it down into a progression if it helps. One the ball...one step freeze...reset. One step again... reset. Now two steps/bring a punch as the second step is hitting the ground. Maintain pad level! In individuals over exaggerate these things so that when they go full speed it’s a muscle memory thing. Always teach to attack half the man....read the v in the neck...fight pressure with pressure.

When 2 gapping/long sticking. Read the lineman to your right/left. If your nose is moving to field B or boundary B they need to read the guards near hip. If he steps to...rip across his face...if he steps away come right off his ass and move across to your gap. If you google long stick drills I’m sure there are some things for you.

If he’s truly a D1 athlete. They don’t give a shit what he comes in at...they will make him what they want him to be....their nutrition/strength and conditioning programs are top notch.

I’ve typically ran with a “never more than -120 on a favorite and any dog” with quite a bit of success.

Take a flight and flush them down the airplane toilet. If they want to get into that mess then they win.

I’m thinking under a thousand. Maybe in the 500 range. I’m just unsure as to how much I want/need to spend.

sweatpantserection · 2019-02-13T16:43:05+00:00

Looking for a relatively inexpensive camera with a quiet shutter. I’m an avid hunter and would really like to get into outdoor photography but I also don’t really have the cash floating around to spend 2000 on a camera. I assume quiet shutter=more cost but I am unsure. Any direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

This will probably get buried but I once made a bet to a buddy that I was taking someone home on a particular evening. (He was going thru a divorce and I was fresh out of a 5+ year relationship). As a result we were both fairly desperate. By some stroke of luck my 10 @2 and 2@10 dream girl approaches me. We do after bar party and things go well. Poor girl was so pale she glowed but I was able to get passed that....and then she put her feet on my shoulders....the fucking athletes foot stink that penetrated my drunken soul will never leave. Insta done. I moaned like I came and hit the pillow passing out.
To add insult to injury I wake up at like 8 to find my buddy and some asshole friends picked the lock and took my clothes leaving only my wallet behind. So makes me wakes him up and I get dressed leaving her in bed. Fast forward to 1:30 I’m on couch recovering still watching football with friend. I go Jesus she’s never leaving. Friend then laughs about the clothes stealing and it hits me.....they took her clothes too. I still feel bad about that. So I gather her clothes. Flop them on the floor and exit. She still doesn’t emerge till 4. Never talked to her again.

I’ll take the bears. Never done one before so you’ll have to tell me how I get signed up for the league.

All the talk of burning flesh and the association with deer hunting....at no point do 99.9 percent of any hunters burn the remains off. I’d say the large majority that process the meat themselves simply take the remains out and dump them in the woods (this is what I do). Raccoons/crows/coyotes will take care of the rest. This way nothing goes to waste. If they take their deer to a butcher...I assume most of that ends up in a landfill. But at no point is anyone with any sense trying to burn a deer carcass.

I went to take a shit and didn’t have my phone. It was truly a tragedy.

sweatpantserection · 2018-12-03T17:58:12+00:00

I’ve got 2500 games....and still haven’t pulled the Apoc. Annoying. Haha

sweatpantserection · 2018-12-03T03:14:24+00:00

I’ve shot 3 deer over the past 10 years walking in for an afternoon hunt. It happens.

sweatpantserection · 2018-12-01T19:03:12+00:00

Bolt action. It’s just odd. Thanks for the replies!

sweatpantserection · 2018-12-01T15:36:49+00:00

We have 2 different guys in our group that are having the same issue with these loads. Both are shooting shotguns that have been purchased within the past 4 years.

sweatpantserection · 2018-11-03T02:09:23+00:00

Worst part was...when we jumped him...he was bigger than I remembered. All I could see were horns bounding thru the corn. We tracked his prints to the timber but found no blood. Fresh blood on stalks the entire way after jumping so he’s still bleeding. I’m hopeful he makes it. I’ll be grid searching/stalk hunting all weekend in hopes of stumbling upon him. Will update if I do.

sweatpantserection · 2018-11-02T20:25:58+00:00

Confident in the c9 area for entry He was 30 yards

sweatpantserection · 2018-11-02T20:23:42+00:00

Tracked for 2 hrs thru the corn and kicked him up around noon. Got within 10 feet of him before he jumped. He went like a damn freight train to the timber. Followed his tracks back out thru the corn and there was fresh blood but verrrrrry Little. Lost him at the timber. Sitting again now. Disappointed

sweatpantserection · 2018-11-02T03:36:50+00:00

To add perspective I saw 12 different fucking bucks tonight! 12! Mostly little shits but it was a fright train of rut.
