Hunting pictures

I built a walk-in fridge in my shop.
Cooled by a wall mounted a/c unit and a device called Coolbot, which lowers the temp emitted by a/c unit.
Steady 36 degrees.
No rush to process.View attachment 89323

That is nice.

I miss it Karl, my local coverts were logged in the lie of restoration. It was a timber sale…

I remember when you posted that report. It truly was sad, I hated to hear it. A hunter learns the land he/she hunts like most folks know their backyards.

yeah, I had many of the old logging spurs named…I’ve hunted it since 1999. I need to look for new coverts, give the area time to grow back a bit.

Got a double double on Tuesday. 4 Mallards 2 shots! I was feeling pretty good about this.

You will never forget your pup's first Rooster. Hank & his 1st are in my avatar I'll likely never change. Congrats!

Still looking, but not finding a whitetail buck yet in Norther Idaho. Passed on a doe and watched it for a bit, still a few days.....

I love this state (WA), I really do. But, a full day in the middle of the week with over 12 miles under foot, with just one hen quail to show for the effort, can be daunting. If all goes well, I’ll be in South Dakota, this time next week. By the way, I said daunting. That wasn’t a complaint! Really……

Got your spotter hard at work! Rangers lead the way!

What is that? A giant squirrel? Rabbit?

A jackalope?

Went grouse hunting today. Saw one but no luck. What a beautiful day to get outside.

These packouts seems harder and harder ...

I can’t remember if I posted this one. Last month in Montana. My pup (far right), made her first point and retrieve on wild birds (Sharptails) at 9 months old. I was so excited, I forgot to take pictures.

Hah! Lucky you're still young then. If you think that's hard, wait another 20 or 30 years and you'll appreciate hard.

Zoom in on my crappy arrow…this might be my all time best spot. I couldn’t get my phone to zoom while it was put up to my bino’s...I wasn’t on a tripod either so it was tough. The range was 491 yards. Hopefully Santa brings me a phone scope so I can do this the right way.

What a way to finish out the season, last day buck! I stumbled into a doe last year, but really wanted something different as the population here is still recovering from EHD and passed on a few. Still hunting is such an art and I have a long way to go - I blew so many opportunities and saw lots of tails. I'm oftly tired of getting up at 4:50am and getting out before work, but thankful I have the option. This buck means the world to me, its the culmination of whole lot of tenacity and hard work in the last year as a new-to-hunting-later-in-life individual. Cheers to all and thanks for the photos in this thread!
