HowboutthemCowboys Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 I have 30 acres I can hunt about 5 mins from my house. I was in my treestand there tonight and my wife text me a pic she had just taken. There was an 8 pt buck standing 15 feet from my kitchen window.

Tford Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 The oil facilities I work in are north of a military base in Suffield, Alberta, Canada, a pretty expansive chunk of land that also doubles as a wildlife reserve. The rules are strict in there, no weaponry of any kind and no trophies taken out. Sometimes it seems as though you'd get in more trouble if you killed an animal in there rather than a person. Anyways, I'm driving up the highway to get to work and there's an elk no more than 100 feet inside the fence (4 ft barbed wire) that can scratch its ass by leaning back. Wondering how long it would take me to drop that thing and have it in the back of my truck in time to outrun the military police And yet, I can spend hours in the bush and see nothing........

It's absolutely amazing how many hugh elk I see wandering within bow range when rifle hunting deer. I swear those rank old bulls have smiles on their faces.

Some of the bigger bucks I've seen are in bear season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delicious_bass Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 +1 I think those f'ers like to just humiliate us half the time. Indeed. Had to stop my truck and wait for two bucks to cross the road on the way to the gym yesterday morning('bout quarter to six). This time of year, I generally see at least one a day whilst I am coming or going. Couple weeks from now, I will spend hours in a stand hoping for shots I could take from my Chevy every day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
