Re: Potential!

He finished up nicely. I really like the "boxy" look to him, and the cheaters on each side are a nice touch as well. Any hunter that gets to notch their tag with him is very fortunate.

Re: Face Camo?

I know a lot of guys that opt for the beard instead of the face paint or mask. I'm not a big fan of the beard myself what with all the itching and I end up looking more like a Chia Head than a rugged outdoorsman.
I think I'd go with the paint and some baby wipes.

Re: Muzzy Deer Hunt Advice

I have hunted the exact same areas and the exact same way for muzzleloader and rifle. The last few years have been so hot during the hunt that the majority of the action has been very early or very late. You could definitely sit on water midday, but that's when I get out and still hunt & see some ne...

+1, the only species that I THINK it is legal to use bait for is bear.

Re: Contact a Biologist

I've had decent success getting the information I've wanted getting on the DWR website and sending them an email under the About Us tab. It takes a couple days but they've always responded to my inquiries. You can also find the direct phone numbers for the regional offices on the DWR website. Here's...

Agree!!! I'd take him in a heartbeat with a bow, rifle, sling shot, spit wad... whatever man, just get him on the ground. Score doesn't matter 'cause he'd look CRAZY AWESOME on the wall.

Re: 2012 trail cam pics

Nice variety there. The bull in pics 8,9, and 10 has some pretty cool fronts. The last two bucks aren't bad in my opinion... I wouldn't think twice about shooting either. BTW, I think it's great that you're already getting pics for next year off the Wildgame Innovations cam & 4 years down the road o...

Re: Time during the hunt

I'm a light weight I guess. I've done the muzzleloader deer hunt the last 3 years and have been out Wednesday thru Saturday afternoon each year. I'm out almost the entire day with the morning & evening hunts and the afternoon hikes that take me into previously unseen areas... so by Saturday I'm pret...
