SCENES FROM CAMP

BACK TO REALITY FOR JASON.

HE NO LONGER HAS OODLES OF TIME OFF.

HERE ARE A FEW PICS FROM OUR HUNTING

UP NORTH DURING RIFLE SEASON.

 

 

HERE'S THE "POWER LINE" STYLE SHOOTING LANES

VIEWED FROM MY NEW CUSHY HEATED TOWER STAND.

 

 

ON THE NEARBY STATE LAND...

OUR PLAN TO INTERCEPT THE BUCK JASON SAW

TWICE

BY THE LARGE PINES ON THE LEFT

AS HE CROSSED TO THE SPRUCE POINT ON RIGHT:

 

FAILED

 

HE EITHER OUTSMARTED US

OR IS IN SOMEONE ELSE'S FREEZER.

JASON IS CONVINCED THE PINE ISLAND

 IN THE SWAMP IS THE BUCKS "HOME".

 

KIND OF HARD TO SHOOT A BUCK

224 YARDS (RANGED) AWAY WITH HIS BOW.

I PARKED IT ON THE GROUND

 WITH MY RIFLE HALF WAY IN BETWEEN JASON'S STAND

 & THE SIGHTING LOCATION.

 

 

"THE TUNDRA"

OUR NEW STAND LOCATION

SHOWING THE LAY OF OUR PROPERTY

FROM IT'S LOWEST POINT.

 

 

WATCHED A LOT OF BIRDS FROM THE STAND.

 

 

PRESTON SHOT THIS NICE FORK WITH MY FATHER'S 308.

HE EARNED THAT BUCK, GETTING IT THE LAST WEEKEND.

 

 

JASON WAS PRETTY PROUD.

PRESTON HAS SHOT 3 BUCKS, 3 YEARS IN A ROW NOW.

SPIKE, 7, 4.
