2010's official OT URS bowhunting thread

Haven't tried the bombs personally, but I have heard good things from a friend. He told me he is going to try the acorn scent bomb this year..
 
My bro-inlaw bought a whole case of buck bombs a cpl years ago and depleted them all by the first 2 weeks of the season. He didn't get any activity from them but he's kind of a :mtool: lol...WE only hunt on 20 acres and his main stand is only about 100yds from mine, so opening weekend I kept hearing these aerosol cans "blowin' up"...moderately annoying lol.

I haven't peed in scrapes at all before but have a buddy that does often. I do let it rip from my stand however lol.
 
I haven't read anything good, that I believe, about the bombs. I hear they can be a nightmare. I'm saving my money. But dirt n pee are free! Worth a shot.
 
Never put the cam out. I'm gonna see how the opener goes and maybe throw one up. The weather seems to be cooperating better this year. First frost this am, so maybe the ticks won't be as big a problem either.

Anyone seen any sign yet? With the move, I haven't been able to get out into the woods. Just going on faith that signs from last year will reapeat in similar areas this year.
 
Quick stop at Bass Pro this afternoon.....juices are flowing.....

Grabbed some stuff to make a mock scrape or ramp up an existing scrape. I'd like to hit the woods, but realistically don't think it's gonna happen before Saturday.
 
try dragging one off the back side of hollis island (probably misspelled), my brother shot his big boy and had to drag it 3-4 miles. no motorized vehicles allowed. same with the co-op land across from long point. 200 acres all uphill, best hunting other side of a very steep ravine. man that sucked dropping a big 8 down it and dragging it up the other side. stuck at work and have been triple checking my supply list in my head. don't want it like two years ago when I forgot my release. stoked for tomorrow rain, wind whatever.
 
not a thing today. buddy shot an 8. the area I decided to hunt usually has alot of sign but nothing but a few runs this year.
 
Saw some in next field over on the drive here. Not much sign to speak of. Maybe We'll get lucky when it gets closer to prime time.
