F-Troop Est. 1968

Friday: Leaddog meets with Robba and crew nice and early to discover ingress to camp is blocked by snowplowed pile….Robba quickly removes said blockage and then blocks drive with new Chevy HD2500 truck. Comealongs and chains were then in order to remove said blockage, with newly formed Ftroop Roadcrew clearing way for others… 4 hours were needed to get into camp. Parking fees for latecomers were discussed. Roadcrew then hunts in two feet of Global Warming, with no results.

Saturday: Assemblage of idiots proceeds to hunt where no deer were, or will ever be for the remainder of this season. Some tracks observed.

Sunday: Crew hunts western bunny hill; tracks, beds and fresh sign abounds, deer sneak off hill and turns on cloaking devices, making them invisible to anyone.

ATTENTION: A snowshoe workshop is scheduled for Saturday December 6, promptly beginning at noon. FAMHC members in good standing will be admitted with a substantial discount. Proper techniques and use of snowshoes will be discussed, with actual deployment on said equipment to be enjoyed , guns are optional. Sign up early!

Friday: Polecat and Leaddog hunts Beaver Valley to the top, then on to “a lake” to the west, where they find themselves at sunset, three miles from camp. A foot of snow was encountered, but no deer. Headlamps were a necessity to egress from the Big Woods.

Saturday: The crew finally hunts “over the top” in search of mules, Polecat encounters a big eight pointer, which he then gives a haircut to….a hunt to find said mule results in yet another egress from the Big Woods via headlamps, in the frigid cold. Ftroop considers sending Polecat to Barber School…. 🙂

Sunday: Due to consistant snow and cold, the crew hunts Camp Knob, where deer are actually pushed to a watcher, but were not sporting “headgear”. One Mule of undertermined type escapes the drive by sneaking through Digger and Leaddog, who were only 50 yards apart.

Friday: Polecat, Leaddog and the Toucher hunts the Razorback and Beaver Valley. Another nice walk was had. Polecat finally obtained his FAMHC contact hours, as required for continuation of membership of said club in good standing.

Saturday: Another wet adventure for the crew, again.

Sunday: Crew hunts the “Bunny Hill”, found illegal crew in watches on private State Land, who then shoots a bear the size of a cat. Illegal crew now has acquired the name of “Cubscouts” 😉
One deer seen by Robba, after “Cubscouts” are humiliated via radio and flees area in a cowardly fashion. Snow falling in every direction, including up!

Friday: Leaddog with son in tow, Toucher, Steven hunts Beaver Valley, all had a nice walk. Polecat gets “gassed” while waiting for a gas delivery that was not on time…

Saturday: Crew hunts in rain, one doe to leaddog….otherwise, all had a nice walk

Sunday: Crew hunts, all had a nice walk….

Friday: FAMHC sanctioned event…..Toucher pushes “deer” almost to Leaddog
Saturday:Robba’s turn to see the Big ‘ol Bear (see Bear pinball), crew hunts far and away, deer observed running everywhere but in the right direction. Bears appear to be plentiful…..
