Nice!
Ordered my license last week. Looking forward to it- I added turkey (mostly for Spring) this year. Going to try and go pheasant hunting a day or two as well.

Waiting on mine ,I think i got a Doe, I am hoping to help my dad Harvest a dear this year before he starts to get to old to be out in the woods, Its tough to hunt with some one because you just have to chat

All set. New bow ordered.
Good luck to everyone. ( I need to find time to go purchase my tags.)
Good luck pheasant hunting BDinPutnam. Bird hunting is one of my favorite hunts. Do you have a hunting dog? It's a kinda difficult to hunt pheasant without a good dog (been there, done that.)

Thanks @mak00. I'm thinking about going to one of the preserves kind of near me that provides a guide and dog. Anyone ever been? I've done my share of small and big game but this would be my first time out for upland, my father in law and I were thinking it would be a nice afternoon out after (hopefully) filling our deer tags during the week before/of Thanksgiving.
ETA I have an English Pointer mix but we got her when we lived in the city so she never got trained = useless for hunting, lol:

Im in the process of training my dog on birds right now.
She is a 2 year old shepard/hound mix.
She is sharp as a tack so its going well.
Your dog has birds in its blood.
I know a guy that uses a Golden Retriever as a bird dog and another with a Pitbull he uses as a duck retriever.
Anyways, ive got my dog pointing but she lunges sometimes when birds flush.
We are working on her NOT getting shot.

My food plots are coming up nicely so far.
I still need to sight in my rifle (has a new scope on it) and sight in my new muzzleloader.
Also need to put out my cameras and move one tree stand.
Crap, I better get busy. I did at least get my bow out and start shooting it the other day.
My favorite food plot in the woods, a couple weeks after planting.
The buck I took in that food plot in 2017:
It was also the first deer that I took with the new bow that I bought that year.

Just picked up my new bow (Diamond SB1). Shoots just a little better than my first one. Liking it so far. The deer.....not so much.
Already eyeballing this young feller that showed up the other day. I had another 8 point from about a month ago but I don't think this is him. He had a low and wide rack.

My license and tags came in the other day and I've been too busy to open them.
Question- my father in law and I are thinking of going on a guided pheasant hunt (guide with a dog). What's the guideline for a gratuity on that for the guide? It would be four hour hunt.

Depends on what the dog likes to eat.

I got mine last week. I missed the dreaded 9P but choose 9A as a back up. I got 9A. Also found out my buddy likely won’t get his license so I’ll be hunting alone again. The drunk up the hill his nephew says he’s going to hunt his uncles land this year. That take away about 35 acres for me to hunt on and he’s a drunk. So bad they can barely talk every time we meet them. They are loud and party all night. Doesn’t look good this year. Glad I just spent $700 on a new shotgun so my broke buddy could use my old one.

I certainly try my best. This guy is a disaster. He’s nice and let’s us use his land. He has a pond with tons of frogs and newts my kids love it.
His son flipped his four wheeler while he was in town getting beer. My mother and father literally saved the kids life. He was going into shock with a compound fracture of the leg and collar bone. They called mercy flight in it was that bad. Now the guy wants to give my parents the world.
The owner doesn’t come down to hunt much and the kid told me he’s known him for years and considers him his uncle so I don’t think I’ll see him much either. Never seen the kid there before so why would he come down now?

Nice shooting! Now if you can just get him to stop for the camera

Nice shooting.
I got tired of wrecking arrows, so I stopped shooting groups with my bow. Most of the time I practice with only one arrow, but if I use more than one, I shoot at different spots on the target.
