Morning Ottawa area members of OOD. It is about that time of year agian before Deer kicks off fully to have another breakfast. The last place in Kemptville was a good time and maybe we can do that spot again.
I am going to suggest the 17th or 18th Oct - 0800-0900 timeframe.
Mark
Good Idea Mark...it gets busy soon with Hunt Camp work weekends etc. Be nice to see ya'll.
Unfortunately, I can't make it Sat morn, there is an Farm estate auction I have to go to, but Sunday will work for me.
In fact Sunday also works if someone wants to swing by after and sight in their ML.
I will talk with the wife, she is off that weekend and there is a bird auction on the Sunday we were thinking of going to.
Its a good start...lol
Well, I didn't attend last year and mostly lurk around the boards but if the criteria is kemptville residency then I'm in for either day.
/D
Sure I'm in.
Any newbies to the site this is a great way to meet some of the guy's on the forum.
Anyone from around the Ottawa area Familyman, lots from outside of Ottawa go to these meeting.
I'd like to attend, but I will confirm next week.
9 or 9:30 would be great either day is fine. But Saturday probably better then I could be my son with me.
Let's get this back on the radar.
BTT.
Doesn't look like much of a crowd?? This is a good opportunity for people new to the area to meet guy's who know the lay of the land.
Can attend, if Oct 18th Sunday
It's open to everyone, that's why Line052 created a thread. :).
I don't think a date time has been finalized, but if we miss it this month I'm sure it will be brought up again.
Meeting other hunters/fishers can be a good way to get tip's maybe learn more about local crown and crown not far out etc.
Also allows you to put a face to the person online.

As much as I would like to get together again I am heading west to Nipissing for moose and bear early Saturday morning.
Alrighty then(Jim Carey Style lol), looks like after Rifle season for then (Mid-End November). Would sooner have max attendance and meet all the new people and give others a chance to schedule.
How about we pick a date now so that we can pre-schedule it on our calendars....how about Nov 22 as guys who hunt the 2nd week may still be out on the 15th.
I would be in for the late November breakfast. Right now with turkey, goose and bow-deer in full swing i would rather be hunting than talking :-)
Beers at night could also work.
Had fun last time.
I think late Nov sounds good. Most big game hunting will be completed by then.
uuhhh...excuse me GW, but the 'smoking' best season doesn't start till Nov 30th... HahaQuote:

That's more feasible for me.
I guess I missed a lot with my trip, Nov 22nd works for me, the wife will miss it due to work but I will be there.
I guess I better use this weekend to clean out the eves and finish up things around the house before the snow flys.
Heading into MB this weekend Fri Eve/Sat Morn for duck hunt in camper.
What type of choke do you use for hunting in the camper? Some sort of spreader load would be a basic requirement :)Quote:

Will this be your 'inaugural' weekend for your pride and joy ?
Nov 22nd is on the calendar. Will be nice to put some faces to the profiles I see all the time

If anyone is looking for company to do some grouse, rabbit or coyote hunting, count me in. I live in Ottawa and member of the Smiths Falls fishing and hunting club. So I've got the tools but haven't spent much time hunting. Mostly target. My sons not interested and I'd rather not go alone.

Figure I would bring this back up so it stays on the radar.
For those who want to try the crown in Ottawa, I am in MB every weekend. Shoot me a txt 613-863-5483. Grouse, Rabbit and ducks until the ice over.
Thought I would bring this back up.
Nov 22 Meet and Greet for breakfast Ottawa area. Maybe Kemptville area (Love that last place).
Looking forward to hearing some stories from the hunt camps.....should be entertaining !!
Thought I would bring this back to the top, since the date is getting closer.
This is a good opportunity for new hunters to meet some experience hunters.
You know ask questions and advice in person.
Everybody still hoping to be in?? Breaky at that Kemptville place they had good food.
Thanks GW....the restaurant is called the 'Five Star' and is in the Kemptville Mall, across the parking lot from the Sears store.
Has anyone booked reservations etc ....do we have an idea how many will be attending ?
I will be there, my wife has to work but I will be there.
I'm not sure if we officially picked a date. I think we tossed around the Nov 21 and suggested the time of around 10 AM ish.
November 22nd I think we decided on.Quote:

22nd sounds great have to try and split wood on the 21. Anyone who wants to get into shape is welcome to come split wood. :)
I have to take a guy muskie fishing, he traveled from Israel to work with us, I know, it will be a long tough day, ha ha.Quote:

Sounds good Table for 10, My best friend my join us as he will be down this weekend to pick up some things I picked up for his garage. But I am sure if he comes along we can squeeze him in someplace.

Hopefully we can gather again soon.
Mark... If you have it, I am looking for 200-300 .308 Win cases. I will pick it up.
308, you will be competing with him for that stuff, ha ha.Quote:

Been there done that...put 2 kids thru competitive hockey programs...it wasn't till they were done before I could afford to buy bullets :)Quote:

Also if anybody wants I have some 270 shells.

Nice that Mark took a break from a successful yote hunt to warm up and have a coffee with us :)
Yep, it was nice to put some faces to the names...even though I've already forgotten who is who. Ha!
It was great to get together again. GW and Mikepal, sorry about spilling that coffee all over you guys. That was so embarrassing!
Yeah sorry I had to run. Wanted to see those Yotes Mark got. My son called me on my way there and said he had to be picked up like at noon and I also had to get back and finish with the wood splitter. The fella sitting across from me was my best friend who I have known for 25 years Tim. That who I camp with. He just got into hunting officially this year and last week got his first grouse.
Don't give it a second shot Rob, neither GW or I were actually hit, no harm no foul.Quote:

WoWow, great time and lots of work to process the yotes (never thought to bring a spreader to hang them), needed to get home to help decorate tree. Will post some pics soon. Pelts came off good and should turn out nice. One going to be a wall hanger rug (no head) and the other is going to be made into a hand warmer for deer stand.
The wife is none too pleased they both (pelts) are in the freezer...lol.
Great breakfast and meeting up you guys. Sorry I did not bring brass, next time. The homeowner of the property I hunted texted me last night and said were back in the hedgerow last night 100 ft from where I shot and skinned them out. Did not expect that. Also, a friend of theirs hunts goose in back field and got a yote last week. Clearly this pack is not shy of human contact...
I was lost half way through, ha ha, you pick up the names over time but I bet you will still forget who people are with respect to their OOD names, unless it is obvious like MikePal.Quote:
