Shooting the selected animal and putting the tag on it. You have to “cut” out the day month year on the tag. I will post a pic later

 

just been down to my mates bait spot and banged down some alfalfa bales

the moose will smell those and hopefully head there for tomorrow’s hunt.

we drove in and there was a wild boar sow with little uns feeding. Not even a remote chance of a shot

A quick walk thru 1/2 mile of 2feet of snow

sitting in a raised blind waiting for the swamp donkey to appear

for some reason the moose have stayed in the swamps,no one has been seeing them anywhere.

i know my hunting spot the farmer has ploughed up his alfalfa fields and re sown them,this has

caused none of the game animals to feed there,noticeably different this year.

add into it the serious dump of snow,so you cant get to spots now,the back roads/farmers tracks are all blown in

 

just going to grab a few bags of grain and heading  north to see what the deer spot is like

deer tag next if i have anything decent hitting the bait

[Ted Newgent 4,896]

Just got a couple of bags of barley and headed up into the bush.

couldn’t get within a mile of my bait spot

the trails are over 3 ft of snow. I ain’t getting stuck and shovelling for hours

really not happy
