Just gotta recognize what’s good and what’s bad and be able to separate the two.

The old saying “I heard it straight from the horses mouth” could be said nowadays as “I got it straight off the internet”.

But it’s like my daddy said “who in the hell said all them horses is honest horses?”.:wink:

Nice looking arrows there Drew.

Thanks R2, hows your season going?

Kinda slow, right now. Either wet and muddy or family stuff happens.

The weeds are so high and thick that my favorite spot and stalk kinda hunting is tough.

I’m glad we have a long hunting season.

Thanks for asking.

Have you gotten to get out yet?

P.S. Drew you know the deal with my bow hand, sometimes it ain’t very happy either.

I was hunkered up in a big pile of rocks early yesterday, about half asleep, waiting for daylight so I could do some glassing, when a mess of coyotes starting raising a ruckus within a hundred yards of me. Downwind too.:roll:

I thought about Steve’s deal and I was hoping if I smelled at all, which was a good possibility, it wasn’t smelling dead. :D:D

Never saw the buggers so guess I smelled like people which at times can be OK..:wink:

Well Steve, the “treeologist” in me is curious, in regards to another recent thread, you did plant the variety that only drops it’s nuts in the morning didn’t you. 🙄

I enjoy my smart-ass phone. I just choose not to hunt with it.:D

It hunts with me but it becomes a camera and possibly (hopefully if bad happens) an emergency self preservation device.

I agree that all the BS that goes on with phones, tablets and such when people are hunting is that, BS.

Walkin and talkin, just you and your spirit a pretty good deal sometimes. Good for the soul it is.

After awhile though it’s good to have some company to go along with that.:D

Go enjoy and be careful.

I’m gonna try to get a couple of days in before the weather systems coming from the west coast get in the panhandle area and dump more rain on us.

I know about the on call deal after 40 yrs of doing line and substation work for the power company.

No plans have thee!!!!!!!!!!

Glad you’re gonna get to get out.

Noise in the county so much sweeter than the noise of the city.

The Sandhill Cranes are migrating in.

They winter in the area and south a hundred miles or so.

Maybe I’ll experiment with fishing arrows 😯 I figure if I use my safety harness to keep me attached to the tree, and the line from the arrow is attached to that, what can go wrong? 🙄
