Maybe just the light Jim. I have zero doubt before I know it there will be some gray showing up. They all get old too soon. She will be 7 next month.Jim Cloninger wrote:Hey Tom, it seems to me that Sophie has gotten a little lighter in color. Is that true? Jim
Nice buck, Roger!
I'm sure you will still have some there. We just had some migrators show up this week in Va. You can always tell the ones that migrate. They don't want to fly because they are tired, but they will run like an 18 year old chasing a cheerleader. Sophie can handle the runners fine. Me not so much as when they finally get pinned they tend to come out low and fast. Tough shooting in this soup.ROMAC wrote:Tom,
I'm sorry to say I have not gone yet. My core group of buddies are not big deer hunters and they went on opening day of the PA deer season over to NJ to catch the migration. They did very well. They sent me this photo to rub it in a little at about 2:00, at about 4:15 I sent them one of my own in return! I shot a nice 7 point late in the day. I do have plans to go a little later in the month after the main NJ deer season ends.
'Green Briar is what we call it down here. Woodcock like it because everything that wants to kill them hates it.ROMAC wrote:Tom,
I went yesterday to Southern NJ again. We had about 9 flushes and brought home just 2 birds, one each.
One area we went was a total bust, nary a scent and no chalk as far as we could see.
The second area was a lot better. We hunted extremely thick brambles that edged the phragmites along the bay. It was rife with those green sticker vines that shred everything and hurt like hell.
