Great buck Bill. You never disappoint that’s for sure. Big buck slayer. Thank you, don’t know about big buck slayer but sure do enjoy sitting in a tree watching nature.

Shot my target buck at 6:35 am cst this morning. He was chasing a doe and I stopped him with a whistle, all I could see of him was his head and neck so he got a 25-06 in the neck and fell right over. As I’m climbing down another 10 point is watching me. This one is a 12 point with extra eye guards. Beautiful, just love the tall tines. Congratulations!

Then did some scope swapping. And didn't redial it in. What is your opinion of it?

I still haven’t seen the first deer today or heard many close shots, really doesn’t feel like gun season yet.

Congratulations, guys, on the deer from today!
Just got settled into my ladder overlooking a broomsage field. As soon as I opened my phone, I saw that my camera about 300 yards in front of me had taken a pic as I was walking in. It's the landowner in his side-by-side. Lol! He's driving the field in front of me now.

Trying a 2 acre food plot field that never really germinated due to drought but can't be worse than this am. Only heard 3 shots all day.

I used a slug gun before and my shoulder thanks me for switching to the 25-06.

Got settled back in the blind about an hour ago. Only thing left on the menu is a mature lady IN the field so I can drive to her. 😉 Only heard 2 shots so far.

Not to disappoint... Took him with a 45/70 at 90yds. Quartering to, put on point of shoulder, and surprising he ran about 30yds.

Had a shooter in range. Too much trash in the way. Thought it was going to follow a doe into a wide open area and they just skirted it. Grunting and chasing. Had probably 4 other doe around em too. Still time. Saw him chase the one doe to the north.

Sitting behind the house for the evening until I get a call from some friends of ours son who just shot his first deer ever and on public land, so he’s bringing it to hang and process in our barn.

Great buck deadeer. Knew you were onto something as you’ve been quiet on here for most the day.

I ended up seeing 6 deer total this morning with no visible antlers on any of them. The first one to come by was a big doe. I grunted and she stopped right in an opening and the 30-06 laid her out. She dressed out at 107 pounds. Very nice! Congratulations
