Top Ten Recipes To Slurp Deer Tag Soup this season

So how do you avoid that dreaded bowl of deer tag soup?

Here are my top ten recipes to avoid that terrible taste!

#10 – Secretly you’re a vegetarian who likes to sit in trees wearing camouflage. Ok I hope not but hey you’re the one with deer tag soup.

#9 – Leaving your ATV running at base of the tree with your tree stand indicates you’re a tad lazy but hey it was the only way to keep the seat and handgrips warm.

#8 – Safety is extremely important especially when in the field. Setting your ground blind on fire because a Bar B Q burned your venison chops will ensure tag soup every time.

#7- Practice Practice Practice your target shooting.

But make sure your target on the side of a barn is more than ten yards away!

#6 – I know oh dark hundred hours is an early time to be sitting in a tree stand but snoring too loud will always scare the whole deer herd at 50 yards any time of the day.

#5 – There is a time and place for everything however playing your ipod so loud is one way to definitely allow 12-point buck sneak by under your tree stand.

#4 – Big one here cause if you didn’t renew your O.F.A.H membership this will prevent you from hunting thousands of acres in Simcoe’s County Forests.

#3 – Any hunter who Forgot to thank the farmer where they hunted last year, deserves to have NO place to hunt this year. Always thank the land-owner of the property!

#2 – You’re not rugged enough like that Officially Rugged Dude Carson.

Come on rugged is rugged anywhere in Ontario you hunt.

#1 – Real hunters never shoot real deer from the couch with a remote control in their hand. Only real deer tag soup hunters can do that. Get off the couch and get out there!

Will you be slurping on deer tag soup next week?

Good Luck this season Remember you still have three days left to avoid that terrible taste of deer tag soup!

Hunting and scouting for whitetail deer this week has been great.

One week of shotgun hunting in southern Ontario and this week in central Ontario I have had an awesome time hunting whitetail during the fall rut.

The MNR’s multiple tag options has kept me busy in pursuit of Ontario’s deer during the controlled shotgun hunt. Pre- season preparation planting a Backyard Wildlife Food Plot and building a blind enabled me to take two bucks on same day from my blind party hunting.

A nice 6-pointer at 7am was cruising the edge of this corn field 13 yards east of my blind Dropped it in it’s tracks with my Browning O/U 12 gauge.

That afternoon a button buck decided an early afternoon stop in the Sweet Success food plot would be a good idea. Well it was for me as well as the owner of the property. He wanted a small deer to fill his tag. The farmer was on watch about 200 yards away when he heard my shotgun.

The next day hunting a farm north of this I watched a 9-point buck running the north field edge. Minutes later the buck reappeared with two does and three fawn on the far side of the field. They continued to run circles coming closer and closer to my location on the south side of the field. My Nikon 550 rangefinder showed 67 yards. One shot from my Browning sealed the deal on my third buck in two days.

7am took this 6-point buck at 13 yards with Browning O/U 12 gauge shotgun

The next morning I had the big buck of the farm answer my antler rattling with consecutive snorts and wheezes, Boy was he showing his dominance. Thick cover and a wavering breeze helped him survive the day. I shall have to get back there with my bow later in November or December.

Tomorrow I try to fill my central Ontario deer tag in the Kawarthas, hopefully some cooler weather will get the deer mobile.

Thinking of hunting antelope or mule deer in Eastern Montana?

How about a guided mule deer hunt in Montana with antelope as a backup ?

My good friend Mark Reinert in Petawawa had an awesome hunt in Montana this past week.

I was suppose to share the ride west for a Merriam gobbler hunt but unfortunately problems arose and I had to waste my turkey tag!

Apart from fighting some snow Mark filled his tag and hopes to get back next year as do I.

Dave of Two Leggins Outfitters has over 40,000 acres of private land to hunt Muleys, speed goats, gobblers, elk and deer. They also have phenomenal fishing.

Hunting Canada’s northern Ontario for moose is always a exciting. Using a bow or crossbow can be especially challenging.

Bow hunters in Ontario often choose an Excalibur Crossbow to help ensure they have a successful moose hunt. After 25 years Excalibur Cross bows have proven to be both reliable and accurate, a deadly combination when bow hunting  for Ontario moose.

A few hunting  members of the DVL  Club headed north for their annual 2009 moose hunt at Deer Path Lodge. Filling an adult moose bull tag ensured a successful 2009 season.
