    Never give up, keep flinging

    Today I harvested my first saddle buck. A descent 8 point. The hunt was pretty wild. I was running late on 11/11/23. I got into an area where I knew some bucks were cruising based on a hunt a few days before. I climbed the worst tree in the woods, but the only tree that had a few open shooting...

    Binoculars

    I couldn't find a thread for just binos. My pair of field and stream pro series 10x42's are falling apart. A lot of the areas I hunt I can't see more than 100 yards, but we have lots of fields around me that I glass for turkeys and deer. What's a good all-around pair under $300 (under $200...

I had a nice 8 chasing a doe that I was able to stop at 27 yards and hit very high (meat above the spine (the real "no man's land")). only had blood for about 50 yards. then kicked him out of a bed at 150.

    Unfortunate Events Lead to Missed Opportunities

    Last evening i got set up 30 yards from the edge of a known buck bedding location. I set up and the night was going well. Doe's passing thru to feed and a small spike. The spike on my weak side keeps looking behind him nervously, so I suspect a bigger buck is approaching. I spin myself...

    Deer drag

    How do you all drag out your deer while saddle hunting? I always used a climber and had a drag loop and deer drug nice. How do you all drag your deer out? Hitching ropes together, or carry a separate drag setup in your bag? Id like to see photos.

    Sitting.... My hips don't bend like that.

    I am a leaner primarily because my hips don't let my legs close far enough for my knees to rest against the tree so I find my self straddling the tree or sitting sideways when I'm ready for a break from leaning. I'm 6'2" and 240 pounds. Does anybody else have this issue and how do you combat it?
