Getting in on the action
tjhunt2 replied to redline410's topic in Photography of Coues Deer and Other Wildlife
I feel that any deer with a bow is a major task because I have a hard time but them are some nice looking deer you took. CONCRATULATIONS! -
I use a swarovski cleaning kit that I purchased from Sportsman. It is a good idea to buy several optic brushes as well. I have several packs and keep one in each. They are inexpensive and can be purchase at just about any drugstore. They are quick to use after your glasses get dusty.

Through a Hunter's Eyes
tjhunt2 replied to tjhunt2's topic in Miscellaneous Items related to Coues Deer
That's an excellent idea. I have a hard time practicing what I preach. I think I could easier talk in a recorder than take the time to write it down and then transfer it over later into a field log/diary. Any suggestions on a not so expensive but good one to use for the field? -
Got Deer Mounts Back
tjhunt2 replied to Eagle Eye's topic in Photography of Coues Deer and Other Wildlife
Thanks for sharing your mounts with us, They all look good. I shot several but nothing as big as the one in the middle. I must have shot the brothers to Bass's cause most look like the one on the left. I'm certainly not knocking the left one cause I'm proud of mine. My excuse for never shooting a big one has always been " you can't eat the horns". -
You don't know how refreshing it was to read your scouting report this morning. Made me feel like I was there. Being laid up with rotator cup surgery really sucks this time of year and I'm enjoying every bit of this CWT site. My 3 days a week therapy sessions doesn't compare to the therapy I get from this site so I plan on sending Amanda a donation. Remember to write it down just not on here and start your log book/diary for the future and please keep them scouting/hunting pics and stories coming. Good luck on your hunt!

I have never seen one with 2 beards but have heard of it. That's a rare trophy and congrat on filling another tag.

Bass, congratulation on a nice looking bird and a good story to share with us. I think I might know something about the pickup. I hear if you are lucky enough to find a roost near a road you can run your truck into their tree and flush them out. I believe the cracked windshield probably came from the bird when it fell. I bet that hunter was close on their tails when you arrived on the scene. I condem this type of hunting and it should be reported.

You are right Mike, what was I thinking? It had to be the pain and sleeping medication working on my mind before kicking in. Did you find a gobbler this weekend worth shooting?
-
I was thinking the same thing. Amanda has a point there. There is a section in the game laws stating a report should be filed with game and fish. They will be glad to let you have the skull after their investigation. Let them deal with the stinky thing first but I know there are alot of you out there that don't trust the department. I truely believe they will welcome such a find and see that you get it back.

azpackhorse, what would be the chances of me finding your bear but quess what? I was also glassing and kept smelling something, I also followed the wind and there it was right off the side of the road and your bear pictures flashed thru my mind. It was greasy and stinky,looked like it had been there a few months anyway but turned out just to be the GAMEHAULER looking for sheds. I got his picture before leaving!

I hope I'm not opening a can of warms but I have to ask. Are you wanting something that you can shoot targets at 100rds and/or hunting situations at 100yrds?
-
Wow, shortpants hit it right on the antler. DON'T BUY ONE OVER THE OTHER BECAUSE OF PRICE!

Thanks for the reply. I can also remember many hunts but not the year or details myself. I feel your frustration as well, that's why I thought I'd mention it to others. Good luck on your future hunts. -
Keep them pics coming. My wife and I enjoy!

I own the 10x50's swaro and have barrowed my neighbors 15x56's for gamehaulers sheep hunt and I was able to look all day without any eye stain. I also recently sent my bino's back to be repaired from a bad fall and they repaired without a receit and no costs to me. You really have some great replies. I would say you can't go wrong but my next pair will be swaro.

That was really enjoying. Great piece of work. Concrat on your birds.
-
That's some great info, thanks for the follow up.

That's for sure, thanks! -
Troy, that's a great story to go along with your first big game. I'll bet it won't be your last. Concratulation on a great hunt. Start a diary. I have a feeling you're going to need one.
-
Looking good here as well. Pictures off a cell phone? That's it! I have just got to put my best efforts towards figuring these gadgets out.
-
I need to know where I can get one of them decoys. They look so realllllllll Just kidding, nice photo!
-
Way to go! As I sit here looking at those great pictures of you I almost feel like I'm there with you. When I first saw your pictures I thought to myself to tell you that you need to start a "HUNTING DIARY" but I see Game hauler beat me to it. 22 is my favorite unit as well so we might meet some day. Concrat. on a fine bird. Keep up the good work Dad.
