Administrators Horton Posted January 31, 2012 Administrators Share Posted January 31, 2012 Other stuff is for stuff that does not really fit. For stuff way off topic please use the "(Members Only) Off Topic Chatter". I try to keep the totally public part of the site mostly about skiing. If the members want to talk about killing bambi... I do not really care.

Baller ctsmith Posted January 31, 2012 Author Baller Share Posted January 31, 2012 I live in south Alabama and have deer hunted most of my life. I got burned out on it 6 years ago at the age of 32 and started making an effort to get out west once a year. I swore I'd never sit in a tree stand again back east. I loved the endless views out west as opposed to the thick timber in the southeast. Plus I never have been one to sit still for any length of time. Out west you're mostly on your feet and back east you're mostly on your fanny. This year I've had some changes in my life and decided to get back to my roots. I planted food plots here on my home property and started chasing whitetails (deer :) ) again. We get three bucks here in Alabama. I killed one a month and a half ago and killed another today (Jan 30). The season goes out tomorrow (Jan 31). Maybe I'll fill the third tag then get my mind on skiing (or getting in better shape to ski). I've killed bigger stuff on paid hunts or leased land but those killed at the homeplace have to be the most sweet!

Baller Marco Posted January 31, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 31, 2012 Elk hunting here in CO. I only hunt for the meat. No trophy hunting for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller xrated Posted January 31, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 31, 2012 some various older shots. don't get out for birds like I used to, and don't get crazy for deer. Meat is the goal not horns for me. I know I have more deer pics somewhere, just not sure where http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg9/yz125x/Up%20North/deerhunting20030001_1.jpg Real duck hunting, divers when it is in the teens and blowing on open water!!! http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg9/yz125x/Up%20North/duckhunting20030002_2.jpg Poor little sea duck that found itself in MN http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg9/yz125x/Up%20North/duck2.jpg Not hunting per say but sucker spearing in the spring http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg9/yz125x/Up%20North/untitled-1.jpg http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg9/yz125x/MAy%202009/DSC00598.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Ed_Obermeier Posted January 31, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 31, 2012 Used to do a lot of pheasant and quail hunting here in Kansas. Then I decided to start my slalom course business and haven't been since. Should probably get the old Browning out and give it a good cleaning some day...

Baller PBD Posted January 31, 2012 Baller Share Posted January 31, 2012 Yep. Lot's of upland and waterfowl. I've been known to shoot the ski lake in the morning for ducks and go around the balls once the fog lifts later that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ctsmith Posted January 31, 2012 Author Baller Share Posted January 31, 2012 Is it standard that their tongue has to hang out like that? Like Xrated said, you have to tuck them in. I probably should have tucked it in, its just better etiquette. That said, at least its not a bloody, back of pickup truck pic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNh2oskier Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Poor man Pheasant hunting in South Dakota once a year, and a little quail and grouse hunting in TN.

Baller 6balls Posted February 1, 2012 Baller Share Posted February 1, 2012 Hunted a lot of pheasant in IA while in college and med school. Since moving to MN, only hunted birds twice in 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ Bruce_Butterfield Posted February 1, 2012 Baller_ Share Posted February 1, 2012 Use to hunt a lot of these. I think they learned and are mostly gone now. Switching to wild pigs...... If it was easy, they would call it Wakeboarding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ScarletArrow Posted February 17, 2012 Baller Share Posted February 17, 2012 Bruce - what they heck is that? My skiing season ends every year when deer hunting season arrives - the two just can't co-exist. I'll be taking my first elk hunting trip to Colorado this fall.

Stoner Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Geese. My retriever goes crazy when he sees the skiboat getting prepped. Maybe I should take him out and let him retrieve a bouy. At least one of us would get one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller A_B Posted February 18, 2012 Baller Share Posted February 18, 2012 We had a river blind for years but when the ducks and geese thinned we saw no benefit to freezing our butts off sitting in a Blind holding our guns all day. Also hunted rabbits and pheasants, all up to about 20 years ago. Now we just target shoot out at the lake into a built up dirt mound with handguns and rifles or shoot clay pigeons with the shotguns. Shooting pumpkins are fun too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller ctsmith Posted February 18, 2012 Author Baller Share Posted February 18, 2012 Dave, awesome and impressive! I see you're not skimping on archery equipment either. I've never hunted elk with a starvation stick but its definitely on my to do list. It'll have to wait until I can draw cause I can't swing the private land tag prices. I got lazy and quit bow hunting 10 years ago but intend to start back this fall, already rigged out a bow and started shooting (as a side note, I set my shafts up with FOB's and they have really impressed me). Several years ago I got lucky and drew in the Gila. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller MrJones Posted March 5, 2012 Baller Share Posted March 5, 2012 I really miss quail hunting. Grew up with it in Oklahoma. I think I have seen one covey and a single in 12 years of living full time in south Louisiana. Try to hunt 'em when I go back to Okla to visit the folks but there haven't been many of late.
