These damn deer

[Dave Sikorski]

So I'm sittin on my ass watching TV and reading the posts here when I decide to check on the ole corn pile.

Sure enough...


Deer.


Not just any deer, on the second look I realized it was the 7-pt I had seen last week after coming home from the bar. He's a nice one and I might just have to snipe his ass if he spends any time around here in the daylight.

So anyway, it's 50 and foggy here and overall crappy for December. I decided to go out back and finish putting the bunks on my marsh boat trailer. My mud motor just got here from NM and I finally need the trailer.

So I drop the wrench and it made an antler rattling sound.

WHAT THE HELL???

75 yds away in the neighbors backyard are two bucks fighting.

I guess Mr. 7 pt doesn't like competition. OR is it Mr. 7 pt is the little fella of the neighborhood?

I tried to get closer and they bolted.

Got the trail cam out now so I'll have some pics of at least one of them within a week or so.

Shouldn't it be a little late for bucks to be fighting?

Damn this Global Warming crap....I thought the democrats in congress were gonna fix all of this crap!!!

Here's one of the culprits, looks like he cooled off and sobered up.

Nice pics dave.


What kind of MM did you get?

[Dave Sikorski]

Go-devil 6.5.

It had it's first hunt today. 1 black duck. 7.5 mph. The sculler hull is a displacement hull to allow easy sculling so it doesn't work perfect with the motor, but will work for now until I build something new. I have the ultimate marsh boat in mind.

Not much happening on the shore, black ducks and hoodies.
