adventurer 08 Posted November 22, 2013 #1 Posted November 22, 2013 Who out there has taken a deer this year so far? I was able to bow hunt in Oct. but due to shoulder surgery not able to gun hunt now. I plan to get out in Dec. with a little help. Good luck to all our deer hunters.
Black Owl Posted November 22, 2013 #2 Posted November 22, 2013 Not yet... Except for the 5 point buck and two doe in my back yard (where I can't hunt) I think they all went south for the winter....
bj66 Posted November 22, 2013 #3 Posted November 22, 2013 Rifle season opens tomorrow for us in South Dakota. I am away from home rooting for the high school girls volleyball team playing in the state tournament. 2nd year in a row, but its a good problem to have. My oldest son will be at home trying to fill the freezer before I get my chance. I do have some does and yearlings that come up in the farm yard every night. I have been informed that they are pets by my wife and daughter. We will see what my wife thinks of them when we plant some new trees next spring.....
uncledj Posted November 22, 2013 #4 Posted November 22, 2013 My niece got a 6 point with a crossbow. (Ohio) I haven't hunted in 10 years, but I still go up the huntin' cabin with the guys. I usually take a camera, and hunt with it. I thought I got some great pics of a ten pointer until I tried to view them, finding that they didn't come out. Didn't format the card or sumthin' As I've aged, I lost my desire to kill deer. I like to see them too much, and there's too few of them left where I hunt.
Huggy Posted November 23, 2013 #5 Posted November 23, 2013 Son got one. Bow season here doesn't end till end of Dec. I took this season off from deer hunting. Just too busy with the bike and repairs to the car!!!!
KeithR Posted November 23, 2013 #6 Posted November 23, 2013 I wasn't hunting but I did get one just outside of Moncton N.B. in the car in August.......$3000 damage later Keith

No matter how hard I try I just can't seem to get it right!! I keep missing!! I hope no one was hurt!!
KeithR Posted November 23, 2013 #8 Posted November 23, 2013 He/She decided to just stop in the middle of the hi-way...dumb animal. This is what $3000 damage looks like! Keith
ReinyRooster Posted November 23, 2013 #9 Posted November 23, 2013 Sad to report that I missed a buck at 12 yards with the bow.... was that dark that I really shouldn't have taken the shot. Nothing since.....
BMW Posted November 23, 2013 #10 Posted November 23, 2013 My son took a buck the first week in Nov. and I took a doe in the third week of Oct. Both taken with a bow. 1st shotgun season started this weekend, we went out yesterday but didn't see a thing. My son is sitting all day today, we'll see how that goes. There's always tomorrow still.

slowrollwv Posted November 24, 2013 #12 Posted November 24, 2013 I haven't hunted since 04, lost the area to developers and don't like hunting on state ground. My son goes with a friend and is trying to talk me into it.

My son just called to let me know he downed another buck with the shotgun about an hour ago. That's 3 deer for us this season so far:cool10:
T.J. Posted November 24, 2013 #14 Posted November 24, 2013 Got a doe back in bow season with the crossbow. I have had 3 different ones I let go because they were to small durning gun season here in Michigan.
Aussie Annie Posted November 25, 2013 #15 Posted November 25, 2013 B2mom and B2dad's granddaughter got a buck in TN
Dragonslayer Posted November 25, 2013 #16 Posted November 25, 2013 My son and I both shot a deer. The same deer. He shot it first then later in the morning when he was following the blood trail it got up and walked out into the field in front of me dragging it's guts so I shot it again. I let my son claim the deer so that he would clean it and tag it. It still went into the family freezer where we will all be enjoying it until it's gone. Other than that it's been a slow year. I shot at three others but did not find them.
Guest tx2sturgis Posted November 25, 2013 #17 Posted November 25, 2013 I've had several biker friends killed while riding by hitting those damn things in the road. I know many others who have had wrecks and injuries. I grazed one while riding a few years ago, could have died. Like wild hogs, they are a big problem. Please hunt them until the only ones left are in zoos. We can only hope.
