My Hunting Set Up For This Year...pic Heavy Warning
Ted Newgent replied to Ted Newgent's topic in Big Game Hunting
right o was out early this morning with work as we had 3 inches of snow.so early finish. headed back up into the forestry again because the deer normally bed down when its snows then come out when it finishes and feed hard. so there is a pic of the bait just completely licked AGAIN.monday i threw down 100lb of feed and its gone again. you might see how its just flattened by deer tracks also. these pics give you an idea that this is up close and in the deers faces hunting. the buck that came in (several times today) is 30 yards from me,i can hear him crunching -

ok i headed back up into the forestry again today as it was a holiday over here. i threw down 200lb of grain on saturday and there wasnt a grain left. so threw down another 200lb and sat there. got there around 2.30pm -4c and humidity around 80%,sunny ish. just after 3pm a doe rocked up,bit skittish,she had a brief nibble and off she went. 3.45pm i caught a quick glimpse of a buck,he then pulled up for some feed.he was a small not formed 4 pointer. he was happy feeding and looking at me every now and then.i am around 50 yards from the bait,sitting on the ground un -

its a lot of fuss but its the norm over here and i get great enjoyment baiting and seeing what comes in. game cam pics are always fun to go thru. went back up into the forestry again today.that 200lb of oats/soya beans had bean licked cleaned. there was deer prints just everywhere.trails going all over the place,i struggled to find the perfect spot to sit and wait. todays temp was -8c,wind not so bad but the damn humidity was 93%,today was a absolute killer sitting and waiting.sat and waited from 1.30pm til 5.35pm and nothing,not a fckn thing showed up. -
and now the rumour is any long gun (rifle) which takes a magazine can only hold 5 rounds of ammo. over here,we can get magwell adapters for certain rifles (2 of my rifles have these conversions) and then we can use 'pistol' magazines,these hold 10 rounds of ammo. the RCMP dont like this and now pushing for the law to be changed,outlawing pistol mags in centrefire rifles. there are certain rifles which only use pistol magazines,so some people are going to have expensive paperweights

a little over a year ago a person decided to start a petition here in canada to gain interest in the archaic law regarding the use of sound mods on rifles. i helped the person collate info,since i was familiar with the Uk laws etc. the petition gained over 10k signatures(not an awfully good amount) and it was presented to the house. the government responded today http://www.ourcommons.ca/Content/ePetitions/Responses/421/e-575/421-01700_JUS_E.pdf just be grateful for what you have back in blighty,i miss my T8s soooooo badly

bow hunting is pretty big around by me. couple of friends are into it in a big way for deer and bears. even the schools teach archery but its all fine til this happens http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatoon/hunter-dragged-from-tree-mother-bear-1.4279786 happened not far from me. i dont know what it is about that area as some kids got fatally shot a few weeks later.so the hunter thought he was an elk and let rip with a rifle.
