Blondes Go Hunting
A couple of Blondes go hunting and they get lost in the woods.
Remembering the universal distress signal of firing 3 shots, they fire 3 shots into the air and wait. After an hour they fire 3 more shots. Another hour goes by and still no one comes to help.
One Blonde turns to the other and says, “I hope somebody comes this time because these are my last three arrows.”
Thanksgiving Hunt
By Glen Wunderlich
Last evening’s hunt was filled with activity. Deer began moving into the brassica plot in front of me at 150 yards at about 5 pm and the action continued past dark. I wasn’t able to keep track of how many whitetails were on hand – kind of like counting fish in an aquarium – but they filtered in from all angles.
Near dark, one lone buck – a 7-inch spike buck – entered the area and remained into the darkness.
I am still holding off for a big buck and/or snow, whichever comes first. With the mild weather coming this weekend, it looks like I’ll have to break out the Knight Revolution muzzleloader at next week’s end for the beginning of muzzleloader season next Friday.
It seems as though the mild weather has the deer in more of a content mood instead of the typical frenzied feeding mode this time of year. It’s Michigan, however, and by January they’ll get a bit more desperate.
Much of the green foliage is still evident
