All for a good cause…
Hey Everyone, there is a 3D shoot for charity at DSC on December 6th.  Make this a warm-up before the afternoon hunt! Dean Burnett at DSC does a great job of pulling this together every year. Please support the US Marines and a great cause! Detroit Sportsman’s Congress 49800 Dequindre Rd., Utica, MI 5th Annual “Snowman” 3D Shoot & “Toys 4 Tots” Collection

Listen to what the good doctor has to say…

How many hunters are in Michigan?
Michigan is the heaviest hunted state in the country, but we have one the lowest trophy buck harvest rates.  I have talked to a lot of people that are trying to do some local QDM, by passing on the year and a half old bucks to see if they will make it another year.  If the state were to impose a 4 point or better on one side, that would force us to take deer that are at least 2 and a half years old.  A friend told me to shoot a doe before you whack a little guy.

Toooo much pressure…
Too much pressure causes everyone to wear down!  At work; if there is too much pressure you are going to wear down.  At home or wherever.  The same is true for deer in the woods.  I think the parcel I have been hunting has seen its fair share of pressure.  I have hit it hard and all of the neighboring farmers are starting to set up their gun blinds for the impending firearm opener on the 15th. I am going to chill out and stay home for a few days and hopefully get one more hunt in before the boom-sticks go BANG!

Fun night hunting…
Tonight I was able to rattle in a couple of bucks, they were both little six pointers.  The one was on the heels of a yearling doe, and the other walked in right when I whacked a mature doe. The bucks were grunting like crazy tonight, unfortunately the only shooter didn’t have headgear!
