2008 WI GUN DEER PICTURES!


Recommended Posts

i've hunted a some property for the past 11 years and the guy leased it. I've hunted another piece for the last 4 years the guy sold it. My brother and I didn't feel like going out on public land to see the clowns that sit in the car with shotguns. Is that good enough cooter??

Now Lets See some pictures!!!!!!!!!!!

I took this doe on Saturday afternoon. A group of five came through, she was in the lead and looked to be the biggest, so I let her have it. Good size doe, and VERY tasty back straps! This is my first deer with a rifle so it was kind of special to me. Boy was it cold Saturday! Saw a total of 14 deer from my stand.

Yeah I love this rifle. I also really like the looks of the CDL with the stainless fluted barrel. There was one at a gun show a few months ago in 30.06, with a Leupold Rifleman scope. It was used but you couldn't tell, absolutely mint condition. Beautiful rifle. I was there right at the end of the show, the guy selling was down to $625 and I didn't buy it. I must have stood there for an hour staring at it. I'm still kicking myself! Just couldn't justify it when I already have a rifle I am in love with.

Got another deer today. Was in the woods no more than 10 minutes, was walking along a ridge and spotted this guy. He took off and I could tell that he was injured. I was thinking he must have been shot by another hunter, so I shot him and he dropped. When I got down to him I saw that one front hoof was severely deformed and swollen. The other front leg was broke below the knee with the bone sticking out. Young, fat deer. I wonder how long he has been like this? Glad I put him out of his misery, there is no way this deer would have survived through the winter. He's obviously been eating okay, which makes me think he hasn't been like this for too long. At least not the broken leg. Feel sorry for a critter like him, hate to see an animal in pain. I don't think he was shot in the leg, I think he maybe got both legs caught in something. Either way, I got my Thanksgiving deer and made a good shot on him, so I'm proud of him. Here's a pic of him and the injured front legs.

    • 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.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
