G5 Montec Fixed Blade Broadhead. Started my nephew out with them and they have to be some of the best penetrating heads on the market. Perfect for anyone but great especially for lower poundage. Only downfall their might be is it is a 1-1/8 cut so their not as forgiving as most mechanicals.

Darton DS3800
72lbs
5pins:0-30, 40, 50,60,70
70 yds Just compensate for the deer to jump the string ( they will) and drop into the shot.
Straight down 25ft, 9pt following a doe
75 yds. Big Doe that was feeding in cut corn
Biggest success: Was my 195 7/8" Non-Typical at 22yds. Came into a doe decoy (first time I used one) after following a scent trail I had laid. I was in the stand for 5minutes at most (Also my quickest hunt).
Biggest failure: Never finding a 180 class 10 pt. that I shot on a hard quartering away shot. Pretty sure it got a single lung. Even called out a blood tracking dog. No luck.

How's the harness with these cheap ladder stands the ones that's included? Havnt opened mine. . The harnesses that come with your ladder are great if you start now you might actually have it on by November. Although kidding aside I had a buddy have his wife stitch one into a pair of hunting coveralls a few years ago and it was great for him. Just a thought

My general philosophy is to be as least intrusive as you can to start and progressively get more aggressive "intrusive" as the season progresses

It really is an unbelievable outcome. I have been thinking of it all day long. Just crazy to think how it's gone on this long and here I post something because it's on my mind and within a day or so it's resolved in a way that I would have never expected. I guess you have to be tested sometimes to keep you on your toes.

I harvest most of my Deer "Mid-morning" between 8:00 - 9:30 am. I've harvested very few Deer in late afternoon or evening. So if I get there before hunting time and it's still dark with deer in my plot, should I just pull up, stay in my truck and shoot from my truck when it's legal time? I'm afraid if I get out, they'll be gone. This is my dilemma. For the evening hunt, I can easily be in the tree stand before they get there. I would pull up at your spot about a half hour after shooting light. Then head out. This is something that I had to train myself to do on one of my spots. Even though everything is telling you that you need to be there early, just get it in your head that if you bump all of the deer off while in the plot than A: Their gone anyway and you don't get to see anything, B: You can visually see the plot and make your way in for hopefully more deer stopping by for a late morning snack, & C: What's it hurt to try the tactic and see how it works out.
Evenings on the other hand definitely get in early enough but then also make yourself get out early enough if the opportunity is there to not scare anything and the possibility of them getting to you on time is minimal.
Just one man's opinion...

Well, that talk happened sooner than later. He came by in the afternoon and apparently had gone to the farmer and paid for the next three years. Not realizing that I had done so myself but sure as you know what he had my check in his pocket to hand back. Told me he was two years behind and the third was to help cover all of the costs that I'd incurred for the other stuff. Additionally the farmer included a second piece of ground when they met up. He was just very happy with the way that were doing what/how we've been doing and wanted this additional ground to be cared for the same way. Little close to the season but we'll handle it.
World works in mysterious ways.....

Well I guess it will be time to have a talk with my buddy this weekend. Out of respect for me and he needs to man up and take care of his share. He'll respect my decision to let him hunt or not even though he's on the lease makes no difference. it's up to him to choose. regardless it's paid for for the next three years so I will enjoy it and manage it as I have already.

I appreciate all the thoughts guys. again this is a lifelong friend I'm not interested in getting money back or anything like that. Just getting frustrated with it as I know he's not having the financial troubles that he was. If he was I wouldn't even think twice about paying it and not saying a word.

Just need to keep him around once he's hard horned and then poke a hole in him. Nice looking buck.
