I killed my biggest buck in a tree I could only climb up about 12-15 feet up because of a "Y" in the tree. Keep you scent down and your spirits high and you should be alright!
nice buck! my brother snapped his four year dry spell with a small 5 point on opening morning. I haven't seen anything that makes me want to squeeze the trigger yet.
I got my rifle sighted in today. I don't mind if I don't kill a buck, I would just like to see plenty of deer. I am hoping my brother can end his four year streak of not killing a buck.
Nockturnal nocks dont require you to glue anything and the switch to activate it is more reliable than a Luminock IMO. They weigh only 20 grains or so, so they are lighter too.
Kershaw... sharper than razor sharp out of the package and easy to re-sharpen. Recently killed a doe, gutted/skinned and cleaned her up and the blade is still sharp and ready for its next taste of venison.
Nope. Looks like it uses a similar concept to sight in as an HHA single pin sight. I would bite more if they came out with a vertical pin version of this. For now I will stick with my HHA.
I haven't used scents much in the past, but this year I am getting desperate and I am going to experiment with some different brands. From what I have read, timing IS everything.
I would still do what you are doing. I like to get to my stand before the deer start to trickle into the woods at first light. Who cares what the people on T.V. are doing.
