What are your plans for this fall?


Recommended Posts

Anybody trying anything new this fall?  New areas, new states?  Draw any fun tags out west?  

 

I will be doing things a little different this year.  Our ND bow tags are good for either Mulie or Whitetail.  Last 2 years we have gone to the badlands for a weekend of Mulie hunting.  This year I plan on making it down there as many weekends as I can to try to shoot a Mulie.  My wife and I have spots lined up for Whitetails if the Mulie hunts don't pan out.  

 

In MN, I have bowhunted the past 4 years.  I have had good success arrowing some nice bucks.  But I feel like I miss out on some time at deer camp as my bowhunting spots are 45 minutes from our cabin.  So this year I plan on rifle hunting instead of bow.  I built a nice elevated box blind out in a swamp earlier this spring and plan on sitting there and spending time at deer camp.  I had a stand at this spot for years, but the last 2 bad wind storms took out all the bigger trees in the area and box blind was about the only option. 

 

Other than that, no big trips planned.

I am headed to Montana for a DIY muley whitetail combo archery hunt with my dad and brother the week before archery opener here.  I will get back just in time for a long fall of chasing deer in SE MN.  Some very nice prospects have me pretty excited all ready!

Ryan and I will go to WY to hunt antelope in Aug, help a buddy with a WY elk tag in September, Ryan and I drew ND any deer tags, so muley hunt in October, whitetail in MN and ND. 

 

Should be fun!  No elk tag in my pocket this year, and for me nothing compares to elk hunting.  But I've got a fun fall ahead regardless.

Archery, shotgun/rifle, muzzleloader deer in MN.  Fall turkey hunt, probably about it this year.  Go archery as much as I can & try to cut wood in between.  Usually get in 30-40 archery hunts a season counting morning & evening as each being a hunt.

 

Maybe try to get in a little more fall fishing.  Managed 1 or 2 outings each of the last 2 years which is a HUGE improvement from zero.  Not planning to hunt ducks any more, just don't care enough about it anymore to do the work to be decent at it.  Might do the early goose hunt, but probably be mowing food plots & shooting lanes.

    • 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
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • 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.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • 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.
