Little nephew smoked a good one. Going to look after having supper. Will be his first deer. 11 years old, my brother was sitting with him. Bow or crossbow? Hope you find it! He'll probably feel like it just made his whole year. That's how I felt the first few times I shot a deer.

This kid is stoked. He got to see 26 deer tonight with 7 bucks. He wants to move here now…lol. He said this sure is not like Minnesota. 20 yard shot with my son’s crossbow. Dbl lung. Not much blood, lost sign so I had them stay on last blood while I made a loop, found him 30 yards into woods angled back from the direction he was going when he went in. …well Tapatalk won’t let me add picture, will try again tomorrow.

Lots of movement this evening, another nice 10 cruised by at 30 yards. Not sure if I’ll shoot a doe, just watch. Should have got a turkey tag!

Hundreds and Hundreds acres of standing corn at all 3 properties I hunt. And they have been dead just as much as the cameras are also as of late. And I don't hunt big woods just tree lines, fence rows and wooded ditch lines all very small, easier to get permission but land owner thinks I'm crazy to want to hunt them but it pays off yearly. So hopefully in the very near future they get started on picking this corn.

This trip has been fantastic as far as deer numbers go. Almost reminds me of hunting in the 90’s. Another reason for not filling my doe tags, gives me a reason to come down for rifle season.

Congrats to all those so far. Some good looking deer, keep those stories coming as well. Just about a month now and will be back home with you all getting ready for gun season. Good luck to all you out and about, may your shots be straight...SF Woody

Not exactly live here since the cell was sketchy from the stand tonight. For what started as quite warm, the evening was awesome at primetime. Wildlife galore tonight. Nothing down with 2 scrub bucks some 20 yards away. Through the afternoon I had coyotes, 2 gobblers, a Bobcat amongst squirrels and birds galore. I locked in on the first gobbler at 22 yards. He was a thick long beard and I just decided to sit back and watch. Just wasn’t in the mood to shoot a turkey and more than content to watch such a beautiful evening play out!
