Dafuq?

My neighbor down the street is a warden. He is aware of this forum. He let it slip when he mentioned the deer I got last year when I hadn't had a chance to tell him yet.

Your neighbor might need a visit from the boys/girls in green.

I voted no. I feel like they have always done a mix of "canned" hunts and "DIY" hunts. I think if you're traveling that much for content, you have to use guides at least some of the time. But that's just me. Plus I really like Luke Combs.

Congrats on a great buck!

He had binos. He likely spotted movement and it was faster to look through his scope.

Yup. Like I said in that other thread, I always have that orange bandana (the MeatEater "how to skin a deer" bandana) in my pocket. Ya never know when you'll need a quick signal.

Had a guy point a rifle at me when I was hidden in a natural deer blind. Luckily, I was able to wave an orange bandana before he pulled the trigger. Closest I've come. **knocks on wood**

A lot of idiots will just shoot at movement and then look to see what they shot at. I almost always wear orange for the walk in and walk out, just a ball cap. Oh, and my sitting pad is orange and clipped to the back of my pack. Also a story, a couple of years ago a friend and I were hunting...

Let me know when you're ready to head out. I bought a used Hobie Outback a few months ago. I've been out in Mission and San Diego Bays but keeping close to land so far.

I will admit to considering it. But it seems like all their gear is directed to hunting in cold weather, not our D-16 sweltering temps. I also could not find anyone who has actually tried it and think it works, only online people I don't know.

I love my 308. Best part is my dad shoots it too and he reloads so we have great bullets which have been custom tuned to our rifles.

I always wear camo, but I'm almost always hunting with my crossbow, coyote hunting, or turkey hunting. Or doves, can't forget those sneaky little bastards. I'm with those who really like their gear for the functionality of it. I'm a Sitka fan boi and love how their pants and core lightweight...

THE FORESTS ARE OPENING ON THURSDAY!!!! IT IS OFFICIAL. LINK

Heard back. There's a "really good" possibility the forests will re-open but still waiting for more information to confirm. Stand by to stand by.

I do. She has not responded to my text yet. I'm going to give her a call around 2 (work permitting) and I'll let y'all know what she has to say.

Fried chicken it is then

Opening day was the same for both last year. I had set up in my hidey hole about an hour before shooting light about 200 yards or so from a pond. Somewhere around dawn, I heard a shot, followed by 3 or 4 more shots. I though to myself, "Man, that dude is a terrible shot if it takes four...

I may need to hit you up for a bag in a few weeks for bug season . . .

I had a guy do mine. He uses the boil method and then that bleach stuff. Turned out great.
