Bow Season is Just About Here
September 6, 2007
Saturday the 07 bow season opens here in North Carolina. The temperatures will be up but the mosquitoes should be down because of the drought. I’m still not able to hunt but even if I could the heat would probably keep me out of the woods. I much rather hunt in the cold then hunt in the heat but living here in the south I guess I need to get use to the heat.
Well if your planning to go Saturday good luck to you and here is some great advice from Dan Kibler.
If shoppers put together a list when they go to the grocery store, if an engineer checks off a list of safeguards before firing up a piece of machinery, it only makes sense that hunters who are preparing for early-season archery hunts should have a list of their own.
After all, isn’t getting venison for the freezer or a big set of antlers for the trophy room as important as your daily bread or the machine that sends electricity through the power line?
A bowhunter has a list that he has to check off before he heads to the woods for an early-season hunt, whether he’s going to put sausage and chops in the freezer or seeking a trophy buck in the first few weeks of the season.
Well I’ve always liked Dan’s writing so please check out the rest of the story and hopefully you’ll have a successful season. As for me hopefully about the time the mercury drops down a little bit I’ll get the ok from the doctor to return to my normal activities.
Moose Droppings is a place that chronicles my journey, I’ll explore new places and ideas I’ll learn new things and I’ll teach the things I’ve learned to others. Join me on the adventure and hopefully it will help you in your outdoor endeavors.
I prefer hunting in the cold over heat too. But, honestly, I’ll hunt regardless of the temperature. I simply love being out there. Hope you are able to get back out there soon, too!
Well, Bow season started on Sept 8 in most parts of NC. Western starts today.
Anyway, I didn’t find any camo shorts nor any camo tank tops so I didn’t go out on Saturday. Crocs do come in camo though!.
Well today is the 74th day with temps over 90 and tomorrow will be day 75. The end of the week the temps will drop so hopefully it will be more comfortable for bowhunters. The only other suggestion I’d have for ya Mark is to just get a bunch of camo make up paint
Yeah. This week is looking mucho bettero.
One of the guys I work with had suggested a camo loin cloth. It could double as a towel to wipe the sweat off.
