Yeah short brow times drive me nuts

I am not against 8 pts either. This year, our state is having bow only “velvet hunt” - I think Sep 6,7, and 8. I looked back last year and most of the bucks already had hard horn by then. I am not crazy about it. I dont think bow hunting in 100 degree heat makes a good combination. Not going to leave one lay very long after the shot.

I really want to go in and grab the HD image off the SD card. Cute sucker. I got several images of him running zoomies all around here.

Bow hunts start in August in Nevada. Not a chance in hell I would go bow hunting in 90 degree heat, especially with no cooler to hang it in within 200 miles.

This 11 pt at least 6, if not 7 yrs old. We call him the roamer. My property is for sure his home core, but there isnt a camera within a mile and a half of my place that doesnt catch him once or twice a fall. I saw him twice last fall, both times a mile from my place in a neighbors front yard at high noon during season. How he has evaded getting killed is beyond me with our season structure. He likes a bait pile or a feeder, too - but never sticking on one except during summer. Our new, early “ velvet” bow season this year may be his undoing.
