Crazywolf, I wish we could hunt with those in PA. But semi autos are a no go here.

I have another windy morning today 20mph winds with 40mph gusts but the gusts haven't shown up. I did shoot a doe in heavy wind a few years ago so that is why I'm out. It supposed to turn to rain then rain/snow then snow today. Tomorrow is more snow with 1-2" accumulation. That should help. I have spent 90% of this week in rain gear. It has been tough.

I'm just not a fan of bolt guns. Guess I'm lucky I live here. Can't hunt with .223 but mine is a .300BLK

Little change of scenery overnight.

Now I know I'm lucky I live here LOL It's going to be 60 during the day this weekend though closer to 38 when I walk out in the morning.

that's just not right!!!!!!! but i guess good for hunting.

Agreed!
 
Don't worry about it. It was less than a buck. Hopefully they grow for you. Keep us all posted!

Okay. Hopefully you guys are still around in 7-10 years when I cut them down to coppice lol.

they are just charging $20 bucks per cut they already made. Better snatch that beauty up.
Yeah man! Great bargain. They probably got tired trying to cut it with their 16" Poulan bar and chain and thought, lets charge someone to finish it!
 
my buddy called this morning and said he found some free wood for me. did i want to go check it out? DUH!!! this ad came out on tuesday in our free weekly paper and i figured if it wasn't gone by now i probably don't want it. i follow his directions and when we turn down the lane i say hey i know these people. Dave shows us the wood/trees he wants down. mostly maple and locust and a few small cedar trees in the fence line. a couple of p/u loads at the most. then Dave says there's more down by the creek. 6-7 that need cut down and and all the dead stuff on the ground. ash, hickory,maple and oak. gonna be at least 10 truckloads if not more. pics to come soon.
bonus: 10 minutes from the house.

Well had a buck come in at 1115 this morning chasing a doe. No shots offered. It's stupid windy this afternoon but saw two does so far.

View is awesome

some icing for the cake Reid. :buttkick: i then went over to my other farmer friend and found a few more dead ash and oak to add to the stash. i'm sure i can saw there the rest of the winter. i might save some of that for nomad archer to break in his new saw. i think there is a 30"+ oak for him to play with.:rock2:
 
the other thing i did today was saw up a tree that fell across the road just below me a couple hundred yards. another guy i know called me and said bring your saw. till i got there a county sheriff was there directing traffic around it. about 5-6 cuts and we had it off the road. till we were done we had the PA hiway dept and a state trooper there.:crazy2:
