Tagged out on my wolf this afternoon. Called in three within 30 seconds of starting calling. If anyone wants pics send me a PM as they don't want dead stuff posted in here.

After spending over 50 hours in the woods I saw my first deer of the season but it was a doe.

Scored 2 truckloads yesterday, this found it's way to the woodshed,,still have a load on the truck, I'll take down to Hippy Bob.

Great score! How'd you happen to find those beauties?

Thanks, mainewoods. Being that I'm a scrounger and only own a 1/2 acre, I'm pretty lucky. A guy at work hooked me up with a 40 acre woodlot that has had 300 trees harvested from it 2 years ago. I've got full run of it 'till gun season comes in, then I'll be shut out thru deer season. It's 22.5 miles from me but worth the drive as I load the GWH down to near the bump stops!!

 

[mainewoods]

Real nice. Don't come across scores like that every day. Especially wood as decent as that is. Is that GWH like the one I have? 96' Ram Magnum

^^Yep^^ it was a fleet truck, crank windows, vinyl bench seat, no carpet, 318cid with cold A/C. It had been underwater from one of the hurricanes down south, I dunno which one,,I've had since '07, bought it for 2500 clams and it's a great truck!

Good deal. When I come across someone with that generosity I tread lightly and always leave it better than I found it. The downside is you have to cut it before it rots and then you will have to store the huge surplus in something like a new wood shed ($). What a tangled web we weave. LOL

Near where I was hunting they saw a pack of 11 the day before. They are way out of control!

Wolves? Holy crap, how far away is your hunting area from your house?

So that's why you gave it that name. Thing can't be killed. Sounds like a Toyota Hilux. Saw a show called Top Gear where they bought a used Hilux from a farmer and tried to kill it. Drove it down stairs, dropped a camper on it, drove through buildings, chained it on a beach but the waves tipped it over and sucked it in, etc. Nothing could stop it.

3 miles. But they've been seen within 200 yards.

Holy crap man, you need to move! GTH out of there! How big are these suckers? Palms are sweating just thinking about a whole bunch of White Fangs.

Here's a nice blowdown white spruce. Already at 14% mc as its been down a few years. Heaped it up after this to an even 1/2 cord.

Shared my hamburger helper with my little friends.

Average 100 lbs but can be double that. This guy was about 5 1/2 feet long.

Umm, that's a fake pic right? If not, that thing is massive. I don't consider myself a wuss but I doubt I would be out gathering wood or hunting after dark in MN.
