  1. Another year gone and I fished less than I have my entire life in the salt with my 2 year old daughter getting wilder and crazier by the day. Fortunate to say I don’t have to drive as far and can get more time in the deer woods. My bow seasons been awesome so far. Took a doe early RI archery before MA opened; and have taken a big doe and good looking 8 in the last few weeks since.
  2. Tagged out yesterday morning had this Tom strutting up a storm and gobbling his face off as he followed a fired up hen into my decoy. After I dropped him at 40 yds with the 3” Winchester longbeard XR I walked up to him and noticed a large hole in his chest. After further inspection a bow hunter put an arrow through his breast at some point this week and he went on his way apparently unaffected. Unfortunately I had to toss half of one breast due to the arrow hole. I love to bow hunt deer but chasing turkeys with a bow has never done it for me. That is one reason; the margin for failure is high. 10.5” beard. 19.5lbs 7/8 spurs.
  3. Interesting point that will probably get people mad at you. I don’t quite understand it myself; are they fearless or just that unaware of how the ocean works; or just don’t care? Every year I see small boats with way too many people on board with engines that don’t look like they are worthy of a small pond; except out in the open ocean.
  4. Your sons crushing it GED. I haven’t tried ri; curious do you guys hunt state or private? I’m not far from the border but haven’t bumped into many in the state grounds closest to me. Opening morning yesterday; I was able to connect on a 21 lb bird; 8” beard with 7/8 spurs. I walked up to it and thought for a second I blew its fan away but then realized it apparently just grew this way; or lost a bunch somehow over the years. I was in tunnel vision I guess and didn’t really notice as it was strutting into my decoy just saw the beard hanging and took aim.
  5. Plenty of ice up north still and out west last I knew. Didn’t get to fish any local ice this season but over all got out almost enough to be content. I haven’t made it into the deer woods nearly enough spring scouting yet time to switch modes.
  6. Those woodman arms look pretty slick. I may pick one up for a new ground/still hunting muzzleloader with open sites. I still love my scoped omega for sitting in a tree stand. It’s a tack driver and extremely comfortable with the thumb hole stock. My 1.5 year old daughter has made my shed hunting so far almost non existent. A couple short trips I have ended up with one fresh fork though. I need to get a few full days of scouting in I’m hoping before the summer goes into full swing.
  7. I notice OTW joined the pitchfork crowd and posted on their social media the same “it’s illegal” argument. Gaining ground using the same tactics the Anti fishing anti hunting crowds use. Repeat false information over and over until enough people jump on board.
  8. Yup headed north for my ice fix this weekend. Sick of waiting around for a short Arctic blast.
  9. I haven’t followed it enough to say yes; but I wouldn’t doubt it after seeing her response to “what other options are there to dispose of nuclear waste”. She basically said there are no good options; didn’t give an alternative and just said it shouldn’t be dumped. I’m not sure how you demand other avenues be taken; then when asked.. “like what?” You respond i don’t know.
  10. She seems like the exact type of person to spread misinformation using scare tactics like many anti hunters do to rally support; after I watched the meeting. Nothing much of substance when asked how much radiation are we talking about? Other than the fact that I wouldn’t doubt a company like Holtec could and would do something shady; I also don’t trust an anti organization that probably has a hidden agenda.
  11. There is a video online for anybody to watch of the meeting hosted by the Cape Cod Salties. It’s a female named Diane Turco.
  12. I watched the meeting. Some interesting claims portrayed that I haven’t taken the time to verify; or plan to. The speaker noted that if the water was dumped without the green light holtec would only be looking at fines of 60k per day; or pay 20 million to dispose of it in other manners. I wouldn’t think it would take them long to dump that amount of water so as far as fines go it would be a slap on the wrist like most other things you can be fined for in this state; example fishing regs/catch limits. Dump it and say sorry after wouldn’t be unheard of when it comes to big money players.
  13. Yup beautiful buck congrats specialist. Hoping to see one like that. I decided to do something different with my buck. I found a shop on Etsy; of all places that does laser etching. I was skeptical of quality but ordered it anyways. I am more than happy with the result. I sent in a photo I took with my daughter; and he put it on the plaque he already has made I guess. Fast turn around and the detail is amazing. I did the skull today it still needs to be degreased and whitened.
  14. Without knowing much about it and only having been a couple times to the area in question I would 100 percent not support the DCR or their reasoning. If people dump trash; the DCR just has to clean it up. Maybe spend more time trying to catch those doing it. Trail cameras are a wonderful thing these days. People dump trash on the side of main roads I drive by daily. Is the answer to close all main roads? I will never support closing of properties for all; due to the few scumbags actions. They are everywhere; all you can do is clean up after them and try to catch them in the act.
  15. Filled my first buck tag yesterday. I hunted pretty hard all week with few opportunities then this guy appeared with a half hour left. I watched him rub a couple scrub oaks and drink out of the stream before making his way to a 15 yd broadside shot. Took out heart and both lungs he went down in about 60 yds.
