Hey how is everybody doin. Been a while since I been on here. Tried getting on during the linkbucks fiasco but gave up. Good to see the site up and running again.
Anybody need some snow we got plenty up here with 6" on the ground and another 6 to 10 coming. I'm with you Andy I'm tired of it already too.

Hey Vinny did you end up getting that bucket truck out whatever it was you were after. Heard you guys in the lakes area were going to get buried in snow. Maybe you can climb a tall tree to get away from it.:laugh:
 
No I decided to fix mine, found parts for cheap, sometimes its about who ya know.
I'd be a little leery to climb any tall trees at the moment. The pines and spruce trees in my yard I have all of them trimmed up so I can walk under them without ducking plus some. Tips are brushing the ground right now. Looks to be another rough one for the deer.
 
Long story short
NEVER underestimate the power of the wind
Sorry image is so large. Not used to this new system yet

The question was asked a while back how everyone did this year hunting. This wasnt a typical year for us so I am going to show off a little

Very Nice!!! Haven't seen you in a while, we will all have to get together again soon for a night and do a little eating /meeting.
 
Between jr high basketball and now hockey is in full swing it hasn't left me with much free time. Spent last weekend in Sheboygan for hockey.
 
Good morning old man winter, YA PRICK!
It snows for three days a good foot on the ground. Now this am its 3 degrees with sustained 18mph winds, "real feel" of -22*. Brrrr!
Sounds like Duluth got the worst of it. Buddy of mine up there says close to 3 ft with all the added lake affect.
 
I'm ready to start the 2014 thread... it will give us something to aspire to. We need to have a "best chainsaw deal found on way to GTG" contest...
 
Absolutely not fair!

There is no saw shops in the 6 miles on the way to the gtg for me. :mad:
I'll allow proxy entry's if you give the lead to someone else to pick up. But you can't find it 3weeks-3months in advance and put it on hold... Or you just need to go pickin at some of the old farms around you... :p

your buddy is right just came in from round three I got around 24 inches now the temps are dropping its 2 degrees and wind chill factored in it is around 11 below.. it will be a good year if you own a snowmobile
 
We havent gotten any snow here, right now, but certainly have the cold. Its around 6 degrees this morning and wind, too.
Our first shotgun season for deer starts tomorrow, Dec.7th, and it is going to be awfully cold to sit on stand for any amount of time. The kids are wanting to go out this year during our regular season and now we get frigid temps, so we'll see how good they are at staying warm. We have 10 depredation tags from the state biologist to fill and the kids wanted to help eliminate some of those antlerless baby makers!!! Wish we could use rifles........got a couple very accurate muzzleloaders and have added two heavy barreled 20 gauge slug specific shotguns to the deer arsenal, so we should be good to go.
After deer seasons are over, we get serious about cutting wood, so got that to look forward too!
