Bears or Humans?

Bears, but smarter than a lot of humans. Never triggered the ring camera on the driveway.

Okay, not quite from the window, from the tree stand. No deer this morning, but I never get tired of the view

I've always heard that meat hunted is the best meat.

I tried hunting once. ONCE. It sucked. My feet were freezing, and the grocer told me to take my shotgun and get out of his freezer.

I much prefer gun hunting over bow hunting, at least with gun hunting you get to make a big boom and all the freezing is quickly ended with little to no tracking. Bow hunting = sleeping in a tree stand for 2 hours freezing to death hoping you'll see a deer come through the area close enough you can at least put a range finder on it before it sees hears or smells you. But, I'll try again this afternoon
Oh and I forgot to mention I got greeted by some unhappy coons this morning. I'd say within 1 foot of my boot

Yikes given the prevalence of rabies in regions that would be too close for comfort for me.

I wasnt a fan of the hissing when stomped at. However they seemed otherwise overly intrigued. Have to find a way to remove them, since they've been destroying my corn feeder

bring ben, there are two 8s, a couple scrubs, and some doe. we'll just need to send higher hq away for a spa day. I haven't seen this one in a while, but he has a nice split tine.

two years ago, he was nearly eating apples out of my wife's hand.

We had a scare last night, where a fire started and grew to over 7000 acres in only a few hours, this was the view from down our street, the headlights are cars leaving the area with the fire in the background....... we almost left our house to head to nearby family, but the winds were favorable and we made a last minute decision to stay home around 10:30pm... Luckily this morning the evacuation areas were going the opposite direction of us, so I think we're in the clear (for now).....

I never thought I'd have to choose which chips to save, but here they are ready to go (they had been in racks minutes before....)

These guys lived in my yard all summer. One of them has tiny antlers. Like really tiny. Like so tiny he probably over compensates when he's hanging out with his deer buddies. We are surrounded by public land where people hunt so this time of year The deer retreat into the neighborhoods. Smart little bastards.
