The Ultimate Venison Tour Starts in Three Weeks

Unread postby Spysar » Fri Aug 29, 2014 11:37 am

Me and a good friend have been putting in for a Maine moose for as long as I can remember. This year he drew a cow tag for the Nov season. I am his sub-permitee, which means I can hunt and kill the moose and he can hunt and kill the moose, but only 1 moose can be killed. It's his tag so he will be the primary shooter, and I'll be the caller, video guy, and backup gun.

In Maine you are allowed to make one swap to get another zone or season. I called a few conections, and was able to swap our Nov cow tag, for a prime rut, September bull tag in a superior zone. We got lucky.....so we leave in three weeks to go call in a bull!!!!

I will also be hunting in my home state of NY, and bordering state Mass. My land borders state land, and this year they decided to clear cut 14, 4 acre clearcuts right along my border. So I won't be able to hunt my own land cause of the feller bunchers, and 7 day a week logging......Ughh.

However, I will be doing my usual hunt in NE and SD. I can't wait for that hunt. As a special bonus, I drew a NE spoonbill tag, and I'll be able to go paddlefishing while I'm there!!

And the grand finale' is my non - res Iowa bow tag I drew this year!! I have permission on a 740 acre farm, and theres lots of public in that area.

Should be a fun Venison Tour. :mrgreen:

Should be good.

Ummm, Spy, I have a new chair to get me through the woods a little better (hint hint). I know you prefer solo hunting but if you want to drop me off some place for the younger bucks and you head out for the old ones let me know (in Mass). It does not seem like to much of a trip to where you are. Thinking 5 hours at the most.
