What part of Kentucky are you all hunting ? Think Salem is the nearest town. Right on the Crittenden Livingston county line.

Probably just KY gun and maybe early muzzle loader. Might look into Wisconsin this year but probably won't get around to hunting there yet. Parents moved there..I need to go visit soon and check it out. Where abouts did they move? Awesome fishing in most of the state. Wausau. Think its central. Really need to make it up there just been a busy summer. Long drive.

That is an exceptional price... Especially preseason .. I don't need any but I will pass it on.. I don't NEED any but I bought 4..wish I could have got about 10. I have plenty of lock on and sticks to cover my spots but wanting to get them all switched over in the next couple years.

Thought I'd pass this on. Walmart.com has Ameristep recon ladder stands for 48 and free shipping or pick up at the store. Clearance has been going on a while bit they've been out of stock. Noticed today they had them and placed my order. Nothing fancy but good deal for the money with arm and shooting rests. Ypu can't hardly find the cheapest lock on for thst price anymore. www.walmart.com/ip/Ameristep-15-Recon-Ladderstand/36545663

Wow did I call that one. Cam 1 was on but not in auto from where I switched it to set the date.. Cam 2 was on and appeared to be taking my pic as I walked up judging by the little green bulb that lit up. No pics and batteries drained to 10% in 5 days. Unreal.
Reset cam 1 and left. Fairly confident it will work... Pulled cam 2 to replace batteries and card and test at home before setting back up.
Moultrie abd Primos if you're wondering. Pretty disappointed. Rushed home from work, didn't even change clothes and walked in wearing shorts and flip flops because I wanted to see them so bad.
Just a 2 day check next time on Cam 1. I want to see that deer on cam before I go bavk to work Friday. Pretty easy spot to slip in without spooking anything.

Very excited to check my first cams of the year in about 8hrs. Got a very special deer I'm hoping shows up and I can share with you guys. Fingers crossed that both cams worked. First checks of the year don't always go smooth for me. Bad luck of finding bad sd cards, weird faults on my camera or just never turned them on. Hope everything worked.

Always stopped them or waited for them to stop.
Never even taken a walking shot. Can't really say it's intentional, just what I've always done without thinking.

Yep. Pretty neat how their smart they are, or think they anyways.
First time I saw this in person was my 2 or 3rd year hunting. Long story short, I cut off a group of deer in a funnel ahead of them, missed the big buck and while walking to look for sign a lagging doe ran up on me. I continued walking and she stopped her tracks at about 20yds. The trail I was on went towards her about 5 more yds the made a sharp right basically walking away from her. I never turned my head towards her and even after coming within maybe 15yds she didn't budge until I turned and started down the hill away. At that point she still didn't bolt but tried to sneak away behind and past me moving as quiet as I've ever seen a deer.
Another time this happened the deer wasn't so sneaky. A few years ago, 3 does made a habit of eating acorns about 30yds from my mail box up in the woods. Right or wrong, I decided they looked tasty after a couple weeks. A couple days in a row I checked the mail with bow in hand but I was watching them and I guess acting like a hunter and they'd bolt when I'd get in bow range. Finally one day I just walked to the mail box without ever looking at them. I actually opened the mail box and everything, then drew my bow as I turned and there they were..calm as could be. There were only 2 does eating acorns after that day.

I usually put mine up alone.. Just take 5 or 6 straps and put one on every 2-3 feet up the ladder. By the time I get to the top, there are 4 or 5 straps holding it to the tree, and it isn't going anywhere. Once I get the top strap in place, I take the extras off on my way back down. Once it's up, I leave it up unless I'm moving it to a different spot. They get inspected and straps get changed every year. I missed this reply first time through. This is pretty much how I do it too. Not too bad once you get a system down. The worst part is getting the stand to the spot by yourself.

I need to find a set of those stakes.
Am I the only 1 who is too secretive to get help hanging stands?

Same as the other..used to be a big fan, stopped watching several years ago. Think the last ppv I got was 100 when Lesnar fought Mir again. Just very recently started watching a few fights/shows on TV again. 189 does look pretty good.

Maybe off topic a bit... I don't know these guys situation or the lake they were fishing but I think alot of lakes need to be managed a little better or on more of a local level. I'm a bass fisherman and throw back 99% of the fish I catch but I do love eating them occasionally. My example is this- I live very close to scales lake in Boonville and it is full of small bass. This is where id go any given day and keep a mess because they had a 12-15 slot and I ate a ton of those under fish. That's just the lake, it doesn't grow many keepers. Last year they proposed changing it to state wide 14", I voiced my opinion and it went through anyways. They've now lost the money from the annual pass and boat launch permits every year because I don't have a reason to fish there much now. Sure if I was starving I could pull a keeper or 2 out of there but I would never keep one of the few that had the genetics/health to actually reach that size. That to me is bad management...kinda like a point restriction on deer and all the 1.5yo 8pt getting shot while the spikes get to live another year. Just venting a bit and showing the other possible side to this story. Sure we have to follow laws regardless but these guys may have really been doing the right thing by keeping the eaters. I'd rather see 12" fish go than a cooler of 3-4lbers.

I saw a Dr a couple weeks ago for some pains that ibuprofen wasn't touching. Prescribed some once a day anti inflammatory meds and seem to be working pretty nicely. I hate meds though, took me about a week to even start, probably stop them soon and see how it goes.

I haven't read any replies but the first thought that came to mind was, if a gay man shoots up a place can we please ban the rainbow flag? Especially on our damn white house?!
