hunting season standards

[boneaddict]

I have a full freezer, but not long in the woods.  I'm hopeing for a 170 class muley, or I might chase a few whities later.  ITS HORNS FOR ME THIS YEAR.

Shamelessly: First legal thing I see. I'd even take a doe  Can't eat horns.

By the way, that wasn't an option.

I have a freezer full of beef, so I am shooting for bone!  Even though I am betting my hunt this year on 2 1/2 days, I will still hold out for a 130+ whitie.  Tag soup aint so bad when you wrap it in beef.  BTW, my whitie option wasnt on the list either.

[boneaddict]

O com'on I gave you a whitie option.

O com'on I gave you a whitie option.

I'll take it if I have to

For deer it's all about the headgear, for elk I'll take a 1-1/2 year old cow and eat well all winter.

OKAY PB, I modified it a bit for you.  I'm with you, don't have much time to trophy hunt with this tag, but we'll see.

I will probably not do any hunting this year.  If I do it will only be a few days.  First legal anything I see is going in the freezer. 

  Though my husband suprised me yesterday on our way home from the store.  I been buggung him to death to let me buy a bow.  He finnaly broke down and told me he went to Olympic Archery a few days ago and gave Jamie a deposit and told him to give me what bow I wanted.  I am excited!

I been buggung him to death

I do not want to know what that means.......

I want a nice buck this year, the freezer is already full so it needs to go on the wall if I am going to get it.  Hopefully a big ol muley, I'd take a big whitetail as well but it wouldn't be my first choice although I may have to get over there for the late buck to notch teh tag this year.

Ya, I googled buggung and got nothing either...   


As for me, I will shoot at the first legal buck within 300 yards of my barrel. If that doesnt work, I will go fill my doe tag later in the week. If that doesnt work, I may take up poaching.

[LongTatLaw]

Its always about the wall for me... every year! Every season!  I eat every scrap of meat I kill but I dont normally kill anything not worth the taxidermy bill and trust me...I know what its gonna cost to get stuffed long before I ever see it in the woods!!!

Does and cows are safe until the last day of season...then only spots or milk on the mouth will safe them! I always have a "sure thing" spot saved for emergency last days of the season! Ive got a BT doe fat and happy on a perfect schedule every day... she is hoping a nice 4x4 buck will mess up! LOL

[jackelope]

4X4 mature whitetail for me this year or big 3 or 4x4 muley.
i still  haven't killed a nice mule deer, so thats my goal, but they're getting harder and harder to come by where i hunt. i got a pretty nice whitey in '05, so he'll have to beat that this year. if it comes down to the last day, i might kill me a meat buck...my freezer's empty because i ate my tag last year trying to find mr. big.

[huntingnut]

This is my first year archery hunting for deer, so I am just trying to get in on a kill.
I was holding out for a buck the first two weekends of early and missed two opportunities on a buck, that wouldn't turn his head, and a doe. I only have some mid week hunts for late season, so it's anything legal, empty freezer and looking for that first archery kill.

[arrowflinger]

Taking the nephew out to get him a Buck. If it is a biggin I might have to thump him on the head and shoot myself.................
