If you are the author, I’d love to hear from you. This post has already been read 775 times! Related posts: PA Deer Hunters — Bless their Hearts Marketing to Hunters
More . . .Happy Saint Hubert’s Day
Over on 24hourcampfire.com we all got together back in 2005 and decide that Christmas on Dec 25 was just not cutting it for us hunters and that we’d all move our serious gift-giving to The Feast of Saint Hubert on 11/3. It really bites if you’re getting a rifle or a shotgun and you have to wait almost a whole year to use it. Moving the gift giving to November 3 cleans that all up nicely. I just got back from the pagent. KYHillChick, Angus, and I just finished parading up and down the driveway. I was in my lederhosen, … More . . .
EVEN MORE!!! -on the DST and DEER
Check this out on 24hourcampfire.com Daylight Saving and the effect on White tail!! swoosh23 New Member This weekend I was informed by a fellow hunt club member that we would be at a real big advantage on todays (sunday) hunt because the deer would be off thier normal pattern by a hour due to day light savings change. He also stated that it would take them a few days to get use to it. I about fell out of my chair with laughter, but held it together. Out of respect I just sat quietly and laughed inside, and could not … More . . .
More on DST and Deer
Woods Walker said: What….no scent-loc version??? And that green camo…..now THAT’S a joke! By the time the clock change occurs, most of the green is out of the woods in most areas. You need to have one in Realbush “Last Week Of October” pattern, so that it “blends” with the woods. Our scientific studies showed that deer did not mind the Woodland pattern. The whole point here is that the deer are comforted by showing them the old time. It wouldn’t help if they couldn’t see the clock at all, right? As to the Scent-lok feature: we’d thought about that, … More . . .

How is the change from DST going to affect the deer?
Dang! I’m missing all those threads about “How is the change from DST going to affect the deer?” I always howl when I find one of them. Occasionally I get the devil in me and start posting stuff about how the deer get confused and start getting up in the middle of the night and it throws off the rut and the bucks keel over out of all the frustration, ’cause the doe is staying in her bed and they’re always late getting out into the field in the evening and it makes them get thin, missing meals and all– … More . . .
Marketing to Hunters
It all depends on the product, and the price, and the claims. Mathews: seems like a good bow, but there are bows out there that will kill a deer for a lot less. Scent-lok: I’ve always been leery of this technology, the price is prohibitive, and a liberal dose of sodium bicarb works more reliably for me. I have a mismatched set of bibs and quad parka, both from Remington, both purchased in 2003, both from Walmart that have never seen a washing machine, and I can still have a doe 5 yards downwind and I’m invisible to her. They … More . . .
More on Deer Porn
First off, I want to plug Steve Gruber’s new show, Deer City USA. I haven’t seen it yet, but the following conversation is mostly about Steve and the show. I orginally posted my blog entry “Deer Porn” as a new thread on the Deer & Deer Hunting Forum: Deer Porn Since then it’s been one of the more active threads on that forum. I just wanted to invite you all to go and read what’s been going on. Chief among the activities was the visit by Steve Gruber of Wolf Creek Productions and host of Deer City USA, who has … More . . .
Deer Porn
A bunch of things have come together to force this issue to the fore at our house. 1) We started getting the Outdoor Channel again on our cable. It had been missing for several years. 2) I got a DVR. 3) It’s been hot and muggy and I’m inclined to just stay in the house and watch TV. I have not been watching deer porn or turkey porn all that much for quite a while. I was aghast. 1) The music is much louder than before. How do you keep the deer from hearing it? What does Rap, Trance and … More . . .
I am a Turkey Hunting Troglodyte
I guess this contemporary versus traditional argument has been around a long while. I guess I didn’t notice it until recently when it came to turkey hunting. It could be that the turkey hunters I know are mostly illiterate and don’t own PC’s, so they don’t know they’re part of a camp. Somebody coined the term “Traditional Taliban” on here. “Old-Schoolers” is another term. I’m not going to use the terminology of one side to characterize another, but it seems we are locked in a never-ending tussle between traditional versus contemporary methods. I would like to submit myself as an … More . . .
An Anonymous Acolyte and Mister Remmy
I received the following comment the other day regarding my “Bubba’d-up” Mossy: Anonymous said… Inspirational. That’s what your ministry has done for me. I too had a sticky-tape camo job on my Rem 870 home brew turkey gun. Since I am the President of the “Order of the Blue Snood” here in Washington State, I felt it was time to give ol’ Mister Remmy a makeover. A visit to the local Fred Meyer store and $28 bucks later I was spraying my way to the coolest do-it-yourself bubba gun I’ve ever done. (OK, it was only my second.) I will … More . . .
I am NOT a Deer Geek
From Deer and Deer Hunting Magazine Forum I was in the process of trying to come up with a few quips that would get y’all laughing, and I finally stopped myself. It just wasn’t going anywhere. It’s not for lack of involvement. It’s not for lack of attachment to this place. It’s not that I’m not wholly immersed. It’s just that something has changed in me, and being a D&DH Geek isn’t quite where I’m at anymore. For one thing, a Geek act was from way back to Elizabethan times. The term “Geek” was used to describe a fellow who … More . . .
Shamanic Turkey Hunting Tips
Here’s some random turkey hunting tips The cold: I carry an extra set of socks when it’s cold. Between what’s coming through the shoe and what’s coming over the top from all the cold dew on the grass, my feet get wet. Along about 9-10 AM , after the dew’s dried out, I change socks. It makes the walk home much nicer. When it gets real cold, I throw a handwarmer in the front pocket of my bibs. It heats my chest, which heats the blood going to the heart/lungs. It’s like a hot water heating system. Calls: A dab … More . . .
