Wow, great pictures. Looks like you've seen more bucks that I have deer this year
In that last picture, that buck in the middle looks like a giant!

That Buck has definitely gone nocturnal and will probably die of old age or a harsh winter.InstinctiveArcher wrote:Wow, great pictures. Looks like you've seen more bucks that I have deer this year

But I'll keep trying to get that shooter as long as I can get out there to hunt.

Sometimes late season they'll switch over to feeding in the daylight again, especially when there are big fronts coming through. Maybe you'll catch him on his feet.gas56 wrote:That Buck has definitely gone nocturnal and will probably die of old age or a harsh winter.InstinctiveArcher wrote:Wow, great pictures.

When the weather gets cold and food sources dwindle is usually when I'm indoors to stay warm,.. I'll let the younger guys pursue them.InstinctiveArcher wrote:Sometimes late season they'll switch over to feeding in the daylight again, especially when there are big fronts coming through.

Maybe I can invest in heated coveralls..........

Re: 2017/2018
My dads buddy bought something called a Heather Body Suit. He says it's the greatest thing ever. It's basically a sleeping bag that you hunt in I guess.gas56 wrote:When the weather gets cold and food sources dwindle is usually when I'm indoors to stay warm,..

Do you mean a heater body suit? Because if you search for a heather body suit, you get much different (and significantly better) resultsInstinctiveArcher wrote:My dads buddy bought something called a Heather Body Suit.

The hunting sleeping bag looks awesome. Think I'd just fall asleep in that though.

Re: 2017/2018
When I was younger and going to be on stand all day in very cold weather I used to use a Brown Wool Army blanket to wrap myself in, and that would help a lot.InstinctiveArcher wrote:My dads buddy bought something called a Heather Body Suit.

The heater body suit sounds similar but probably more efficient trapping your body heat inside. But still, I'm not as young as I used to be and some of my
health limitations stop me from getting out there in inclement weather, although I would like to be out there I just can't be.
I knew a guy in Southern Zanesville Ohio that when he got old his nephew made a tree house for him to hunt out of and it was heated.
It had all the comforts of home and had a TV also. That is probably why he never shot a deer out of it. lol
I think I'll just stay entertained at home before I try that.

You should come up here. It was 56 degrees today! Normally I'm hunting in snow at this point!
