So you are over seeding alfalfa?Doesn't alfalfa put off a checmical that kills the new plants when you plant seed in an existing field?
 
We have our first CWD hunt this weekend. I would like to get another doe in the freezer.
 
I was mostly hunting with coyotes in mind tonight. The deer came into the brassica/rye plot with apparent hunger pains. Saw a few nice up n comers. No shooters. Still hoping for another young doe.

My dad agreed with you. It was the first buck he pulled the trigger on since 1/1/16, so I think he was ready for one. With a surgery planned for next fall, it'll be a long two year wait before he can get back out there. We were happy to get this guy, and it was a fun hunt for the ol man.

Congrats!
 
Maybe a little to much slinging tequila before arrows? It looks like your leaning to the right quite a bit.
Ha, sure that was part of my problem.
About finished with my first osage self bow.
Still have a bit of sanding to do then wax.
Fun to shoot tho, got wrist slapped pretty good a couple times.

Why nothing in that nearest hole? Anything hitting yet? I'm about ready to get back into ice fishing.
 
You get to hunt some really beautiful country.
 
Great scenery, bet it's fun watching what comes out of those draws.
 
Huge group hunting today. Recruiting day for girls. I'm up in this tower with a newbie girl and a journalist from the local paper.

I just saw that sweet bow of yours! Very nice , cool project.
 
First sit tonight. Thought I was skunked but had a doe walk through at last light. She was standing 10 yards broadside at 2 minutes to close when I took the shot. Only a 1.5 year old, but don't have the luxury of passing up deer on public land. Might not see another.
