My game cams were showing nothing but nocturnal movement so I decided to get after them and hit some bedding areas. Jumped a spike and a doe in separate areas, I could have shot both but I was looking for a rack so I congratulated them on making it through the rifle season and I was on to the next patch of thick cover. We could use some snow that is for sure.

Slow. Opening morning I spent in the outhouse with food poisoning. Hunted a 120 Acre plot of public land. Gets some pressure from Rifle season and bird hunters. Deer seem to be hangning around in the swamps and cattails this time of year. Hard to push them out and see them with only a couple people in your hunting party. Movement also seems to be pretty much nocturnal.

muzzy season around here was absolutely spectacular...for the deer! the only person in our party that saw a thing was my fiance', and she missed once in the morning, and once on evening sit. needless to say, she gets treated like the rest of the party with A LOT of heckeling. there was a lot of "you were the only one of us to see anything and ya missed" going around.

needless to say, she didnt care about the heckeling, as she THINKS she is the best hunter of the party because she saw deer!!!

Saw nothing Saturday morning and evening. Tried pushing some deer around Sunday night-got two bucks a couple does moving but didn't quite get into range of my buddy. Hoping the cold snap mid week here gets them moving. I was on a major deer trail on Saturday and nothing was moving?

Saw nothing Saturday morning except a bunch of turkey's, those things are so annoying when you're trying to deer hunt, I can't stand them.

Saw nothing again Saturday night until I was in the pickup half a mile from the woods and there was the big 10 I'd been chasing since September sitting right there in the ditch. I swore I saw him smile and start laughing as he trotted back towards the corn.

Sunday morning I bumped two on the walk to the stand an hour before shooting time and then decided to stay home and watch the Vikes Sunday evening. Hopefully we can get some snow later this week, can't tell what's going on out there right now.

My cousin hunted near Grand Rapid Saturday and Sunday and didn't see a single deer. He was able to connect on a big doe yesterday afternoon - the first deer he saw.

I haven't been out yet, hoping to go this weekend when cold snap moves in.

Went out this morning and didn't see anything, which is weird cause i usually always see atleast a few does. They seem to be only moving at night. i blame it on the full moon, will try again next week i guess when the moon aint so bright.

I had to go down to Hugo to get this one because there is no deer up here! Shot this guy the first 10 min. of the hunt. I think he was fighting all night his neck was all wet and his brow tines were all chipped and he had three teeth missing and still bleeding. 3/4 of his right antler was broken off earlier in the year.

ahhh, tonite! cold cold cold!!! and it will only get colder. i guess novembers mild temps spoiled us for sittin in a tree!

Thats the 100% truth. I dont know how I ever lasted a whole deer season when it was colder than the current temps now! Guess theres advantages to this (global warming doesnt exist, right?) streak of warm deer seasons.......

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
