Smag & Hedgehunter HHB 2018-19 Hunts

<< < (5/9) > >>

HH~:
Little luck don't hurt. The place I hunt is animal heavy. Have very high deer densities here in this part of Tenn. Last season was thread bare with selfbow for me. This year, seems like every few times I have it out I get lucky. My friend Ray and I boned her out and divied her up. Bones went to my friend down the way to freeze for dogs. We pressure canned 7 qts of meat for myself, Ray did a bunch at his house. We ground some burger mix and split the backstraps. Deer was dry doe and old I figgger. Not in the breeding pool any more. Either way everything from her tongue to her liver got used. Tail went in the fishing pile to be dyed later for rockfish jigs come April.

Had the HHB out for a late season hunt. First deer I had come in was a nice 5x4 or 4x4 but he had other deer on his mind. Had a shot at a small deer after a series of low doe grunts early. Shot under the small Texas strain deer at 20yds. Eased out of the stand around midday into a big cedar stand. Hit a nice blood trail from the day before and followed it to an empty blooded bed. While on that track I found a nice drop. Nice December day of hunting in Tennessee.

Went out on a Christmas Day stump shoot with the new bow. Still rubbing oil finish on and have a nice blue painters tape strike plate and shelf on. Killed some fine stumps.

Nice bow and great hunts!  Got to find a place to get in a bow hunt as well as gun season next year!  We have a surplus of Hunters, and deer tags are draw only, generally limited to 1 tag.  Off to Nebraska, I guess!  I think they are a bit more liberal with deer tags for bow hunting!  Carry on!

Nice bow HH. I went out with a bend through the handle I just got almost finished to. The deer are pretty nocturnal here now. They usually calm down a bit by now but still not seeing much. I do like the bow though and I'm thinking it might be my hunting bow for next year. It's always fun to give them a test hunt a season before. Usually find a few little things I tweak. Season is almost over here. Running out of time.
