BABY ITS HOT OUTSIDE!!!

A heat wave covers the nation and I am already working on deer gear and preparing stuff for fall. Now is a great time to take it easy and work on some of  these projects with an ice cold beverage and a fan on you instead of waiting till late fall. Then you are in a panic as you try to sort everything out, prune and set stands, scout get the boat ready for walleye season…. You get my drift. Here at Papa Bears Outdoors it is a year round mission and over the years I have learned to prepare ahead of time so that these are the results.  Under the full moon the other night I went to pick my lovely daughter up from a friends house near where I do much of my hunting and the deer were everywhere. With the heat during the day they are on the move at night and it is a great time to take cool evening drive with the kids and incorporate a little scouting into the mix. You know quality time with the kids , bonding and oh yeah instilling hunting and fishing into their minds instead of Facebook and video games. Now in mid July most of the bucks have pretty much grown their racks, the fields have been mowed and it is good time to evaluate the boys. They probably will not be in the  same places come hunting season but at least you know they are in the area. I just love seeing one now that looks like he has a cardboard box on his head due to the mass and velvet. I had one in the front yard the other morning eating the neighbors bushes, he is a tank and looked to be a potential 140 class. He has been placed high on the removal list. I love these suburban bucks. They are hard hunted, used to people and if you can master fooling them then you can fool bucks almost anywhere. The mature eastern whitetail is the one trophy that most world traveled hunters don’t have on their walls. This is my brother-in-laws kitchen and he had never bow hunted till he met me. Now they have taken over the house. (BIG SMILE) STAY COOL!!!!!
