2025 Whitetail Season

Crono it the first chance you get and let us know what it does.

I think it's going to work. Shot the Mathews today. I have it dialed at 20, 30 and 40. I need more practice for sure, but I'm thrilled.

Did some shooting from a chair and surprisingly easy with my back.

On a side note, buddy called this afternoon and found something he couldn't live without. I'm the proud owner of a Centerpoint crossbow with Vortex Optic. Same one I've been borrowing!

Things sure have come a long ways since I used to bare bow hunt with a Bear Super Kodiak recurve.

Ya, little bit. This is straight up cheating really. We have such a narrow shooting window and time. It's just easier set it up, get on the bow and wait.

#2 in the freezer. "Rupert" came out this morning with 3 other small bucks and a bunch of does. They all messed around for a few minutes and I picked this guy out. He was yuge in the body. 0729, bolt entered just behind the right shoulder, he did a 180° kicked and it exited right in front of the left hindquarter. Missed all the guts, turned the heart to soup and arrow stuck in the ground 3 feet behind him

Ran about 40 yards straight west of me and crashed on top of a brush pile.



This was one of 7 that were pointed out that they wanted us to harvest. I'm thrilled too, he was a porker!



Found my feltching

I went out yesterday evening . . . just to get out of the house. It, was, hot.

Took the grandson this morning and had a weird bullet performance. I thought it was clear of the tall grass but when he shot I heard it going through some grass. 129 grain sst 6.5 creedmoor this is the entrance

It was very nice to get out there . . .

Me and little buddy went out Friday through this morning. He had a couple of good opportunities but couldn’t capitalize. Shooting targets is a lot different than shooting an animal. Doe fever struck pretty hard. We will have to give it another go come rifle season.

He got to live this morning. It took a good bit of patience to not tag out on bucks for the year.
