Being retired eases the “I should be out there” mind. The guys in the 80 acre property next to us killed 4 bucks. Two were pretty decent .

Lone fawn this morning. If I had to guess I would guess the same one from last night I saw with momma doe. Buck separated them last night I figure. Beautiful morning with no wind. Good luck to all.

Two were pretty decent . That’s rough…. Must have some good habitat there to hold them. I’m sure there’s plenty more where they came from. Good luck!

Multiple bucks out roaming around. Definately picking up in intensity in our parts. I was getting a little nervous with the lack of action prior. Glad I hung my tag on the deer I did. I was due!
Luke's turn tonight and mostly going forward. Gonna spend some vacation time making a LOT of jerky. I got enough mix for 80#!

A nice 8 pushing through off on the next ridge over. He was a good ways, tried to steady my gun but, I struggled to keep my focus on him. Finally got steady and all I could see was his rear end, then he turned and moved away so the shot never presented itself. A few moments later a bobcat walked right by me

Got on the stand about 245. Had not seen any deer until I saw a deer walking down overgrown fence row in picked corn field 200 + yards out about 400. My stand is 100 yrds from W and S side of woods where the woods makes an L and continues on south. I watched that deer and soon saw another one. I but binocks on them but could not see horns so figured they were does. They took thier time feeding toward the L. About 15 min later I see a bigger deer join them from the same direction. They have now moved to about 125 yrds. I finally got a good look at the bigger deer and saw he had good head gear and was going to shoot if I got a good shot. My smoke pole is good to 200 but there was just to much stuff to shoot so I pulled out the grunt and pushed the button for young buck and grunted. He paid no attention. I kept scanning all three deer and realised all 3 were bucks. A 4pt a 6 pt and the 8 pt As I watched them for about another 15 min the 8 started walking south out of range so I figured I had nothing to loose so I grabbed the grunt tube used adult buck and gave 3 loud grunts. Next thing I know that 8 point is heading for my wood line. Did not even figure it would work. Never had befor.He comes in all puffed up like he is looking for a fight. He did not run in he just moseyed it took him 15 nine to cover the 80 yrds. He would walk stop and look then same. Every time he stopped he was behind a tree,too thick,poor shot angle something. I was becoming a nurvice reck pumped up on adrenalin. My legs were wobbly and I was trying to control the shakes. He finally walked in to a good opening brosd side at 50 yds and I bleat to stop him. At the shot he just piled. up. I was afraid he would get up and run so I started trying to reload the smoke pole just in case boy what a fiasco that was! Got it dune and had to sit down to collect my self befor I fell out. The shot was at 509 so I watched those deer over an hour. After about 30 min I got down and went to see and boy was I surprised. I got ground GROTH! he was a lot bigger than I thought. I think he is going to go north of 180 lbs. Second biggest deer I killed. I was so excited I did not notice he has no brow tine on one side but he has a 1 inch sticker on the base so still an 8 pt Very nice! Congratulations

2 fawns. 2 mature doe. A 6 point. And a very nice (was) 8 pointer that broke his main beam around November 1st. We have had several pictures of him up to and after the broken rack. Both bucks have been by themselves cruising.
