My hunting season thus far

[shellbellc]

My 13 year old is out today, tomorrow, and Wednesday with my brother and nephew. He got his first buck last year, little button buck, so hopefully he sees something bigger this year!

BTW, take those ribs and smoke them up! We have done venison ribs about 4 or 5 times now.

Nice deer Cowgirl..... I got three opening day.... posted pics earlier.... none with horns yet......

I got an old saying for those of us not lucky enough to see a big buck......

(cant even make soup out of those horns...)

 

[cowgirl]

Thanks BustedLuck.

Didn't see any does this evening, but I'm going back out in the morning.


You're right about the horns. lol

 

[cowgirl]

Good advice Shellbell.

I don't let any of the deer go to waste.

 

[bigarm's smokin]

You two.

Deer don't have horns, they have "ANTLERS"

 

[bustedluckbarbq]

I know that..... you cant even make soup outa them either...... lol

 

[cowgirl]

Some don't have ANYthing.

 

[bigarm's smokin]

Yes, and some don't have anything cause some people got SKUNKED this year.

Here's a picture of my deer blind... (just kidding)

Actually, I was kicked back with a glass of wine and my binoculars watching for deer.
Someone told me I had to wear orange to do that.......the next thing I knew, they slapped a hat on me and handed me a rifle.

We call them, Slickheads.

I shot this guy chasing a doe the day before Thanksgiving. He has 6 points on one side and 4 on the other. We also had 2 other doe tags and I am happy to say they are cut and frozen waiting to be made into sausage and other goodies. North Dakota had available something like 148,00 deer tags this year due to the expanding population. Temperatures were great pretty much the whole season, then the day after gun season ended, we got hit by an Alberta clipper and temperatures plummetted to lows of -10 degrees, with our highs as of late only hitting 15 degrees. Brrrrrrr...........

 

[cowgirl]

I hadn't heard that one goat.

mj, that's a nice one!!

 

[goat]

NICE buck mj. I theink the deer population is on the rise everywhere. I know that between me and my veterinarian friend, we take 50+ does (slickheads) off of 2 ranches.

 

[bustedluckbarbq]

Nice deer! I shot my three last Sat. picked them up from my meat cutter tues ..... ate some last night.... good times....

 

[skinnerc06]

[goat]

Sounds like the freezer is stocked for the winter and beyond.
