Switchbacker

Re: PA Deer Hunters...Check this out its a good thing it is doe only, but I know that doesnt stop a number of farmers from taking out trophies when they get the opporunity year round. I dont like the idea of crop damage tags in general, but I guess in some parts of the state it must be a pretty bad problem.

Re: Oklahoma deer the buck at the zoo im sure is getting ample nutrients it needs to hold those horns on longer. The feed definately has a lot to do with how long they hold their horns

Re: shed contest entry Nick (Switchbacker) South Central Pennsylvania average 1-2

Hey guys remember this buck I killed in Illinois this year in archery, Well last weekend I went back to the outfitters to hunt for coyotes and sheds and to just hang out, and the owner showed me this video which another hunter had captured a month before I killed My buck. Theres not a whole lot more you can ask for. Check this out-- http://s166.photobucket.com/albums/u118/ficknissel/?action=view&current=gorillavideo.flv O yeah, that same small buck pushed a doe passed me seconds before I killed the big boy. I'll bet ya he was heading over to do the same thing he did on the video when he got arrowed

Hey guys, just wondered if its possible to post videos on the forums. I have a video of the buck I killed this year from a cuddeback. Thanks for your help

Re: My Illinois 2006 Bow Kill Timberland Outfitters, The place where craig morgan killed his 16 point 2 years ago on primetime. 5 out of 9 of us killed 130" or bigger. I passed on 8 bucks 120-130 on the first day.

hey guys, Finally getting a chance to post my Illinois harvest, from november 6th. We were finding rubs on fence posts so we set up a stand on the edge of the nearest bedding area and I hunted it two nights later and this buck came out skirting the timber. He came around straight downwind and luckily i drenched myself in earth scent 3 times throughout the evening, because he stopped and gave me a few head bobs. I thought for sure the hunt was over, but he put his head back to the ground on my scent trail and cruised right around to around 24 yards where he was stuck by the switchback and ran about 50 yards into the CRP and piled up, like a dream. The outfitter allowed me to take the fencepost along so I could put it in the full body mount that's on the way! If your interested in the outfitter I'll answer any questions. You can bet Im going back next year. The buck ended up at 340 lbs, 184" gross, with 17 points

Hey I just recieved a call from my guide in Illinois and he said they found 6 sheds already and have seen many half racked bucks. he said to plan my flight out the first weekend in february to shed hunt. is there a possibility that the majority of bucks may have dropped by then? Thanks

Re: First day Pa, how did ya do had a 6 or an 8 come under me right just before shooting hours followed by a total of 9 does that came from all directions to feed on acorns the tree i was in was dropping. Evening had a 3 point cruise by around 4 and two does bust me around 5, so that pretty much killed my area for the evening. Awesome feeling to know its all started up again.

Re: 1 more day!!! Good luck to all me fellow pa bowhunters, looking forward to some first morning stories

just wondered if anyone could clue me in on some marinades to make jerky, steak, etc with goose or duck meat. Im having trouble hiding the game taste in my waterfowl cooking. All tips are appreciated. Thank ya

whats the scoop on the golden estrous doe urine lure? bought some today, tinks was sold out, but noticed its more expensive than tinks with a gaurantee. any luck or info is appreciated. thanx

Re: fellow Pa hunters ok I spoke too soon, this morning I saw a few bucks and a decent 8 point being one. Hoyt I never hunt public land, this was going on within all of the approx. 1000 acres of farmland I have permission to hunt. seems like it will kick in here soon. buckbuster were you hunting on the gaps acreage? My unit for the gaurd is located there. Im headed there this weekend for drill. just wondered where you saw them.

Re: traveling to hunt thats true, i was thinking ship it home, but that would save some cash

Re: traveling to hunt im saying if you're flying , how do you transport the meat?

hey guys, just wondered how everyone is making out. It seems like the action gets worse as the days go by. Im wondering if the cause of this is the partially warm weather or the amount of deer being killed year after year. Ive gone to stands which have shown presented me many bucks over the years during this time of year, and not seen anything. Any kills/ action? anyone having the same problems?
