Global Moderator 12poundbass Posted February 19 Global Moderator Share Posted February 19 Took my son to shoot his bow yesterday. I decided I’d bring mine too. I was impressed with my 20yd grouping, especially since it’s been 15 or so years since I’ve shot. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way north bass guy Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 The weather here was horrible all afternoon. Super high winds, and snowing so hard I couldn’t see across our field. Everything cleared right at sunset, and we got a pretty nice view of the moon, with Venus and Jupiter lined up above it. The huge, open, lightless sky here at our new place is making me think about getting a nice telescope. I had a small one as a kid, but I’d like to spend a bit of money on a nice one, cause we sure have a ton of stuff to look at here most evenings. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super User AlabamaSpothunter Posted February 22 Super User Share Posted February 22 I see this big fellow several times a week. The whole herd had just swum easy 500yds and then I snapped the pic once they grouped back up on the bank. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most if not all of ours have dropped theirs by now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the same thing. Ours usually are antlerless by new years or shortly after. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't say for certain, but you can see that the smaller one in the first pic has lost one side, whether that was a drop, or lost earlier from a fight or something else who knows. We have this weird thing in Alabama where our population is made up of native and non-native populations that all rut at different times. Just two weeks ago that same buck was chasing a single or pair of Does every time I saw it, now it's co existing like it might be over. Unraveling Alabama’s Rut(s) (buckmasters.com) “There are several oddball areas. If you look on the map and check the (color-coded) dots, you’ll see where the deer came from. You’ll see deer from Wisconsin or Texas and where they were placed throughout the state. Even though it’s been 50 or 60 years ago, the rut still mirrors the basic genetics of that deer herd. So there are isolated pockets in Alabama, unlike any other place in the nation where I’ve worked, where you’ve got deer rutting in November, December, January and February. You’ve got months that, depending on where you are in the state, you can hunt the rut. “If I’m managing property in Illinois or Ohio, you’ve got two weeks you can hunt the rut, and then you may have two weeks with a small secondary rut. In Alabama, in some places, you can hunt part of the rut four months out of the year. It’s unlike any other place in the country.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super User bulldog1935 Posted February 22 Super User Share Posted February 22 One of the 10 best things you can do on a bicycle, Laguna Atascosa NWR. All the one-lane macadam roads in the 38,000 acre preserve were closed to motor vehicles more than a dozen years ago to protect the ocelot population. Now they belong to pedals. The front bag has an ice mule and beer for this stop. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sold all my Nikon and Leica film cameras after I left the pro ranks and I went digital, but still have a couple of "wall hangers," a Rolleicord twin lens reflex and a Bakelite (early form of plastic) bodied Zeiss Ikon my dad liberated from a stash in Germany during WWII. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Global Moderator 12poundbass Posted February 24 Global Moderator Share Posted February 24 He’s not smart enough to know his name, only responds to kitty. He is smart enough to tell time. Every night between 7-7:30 he sits by my wife, looks in my direction, and meows. He’s telling me it’s time to play with the red dot. 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
