Wasn't expecting much movement this evening with this wind but I'm up to 5 deer in the last hour, 4 does and a small buck. They must know where they are going because they are not sticking around long in the field.

I sat in our shooting house this morning and had a very enjoyable hunt without firing a shot! Deer were moving like crazy and everyone I saw was a buck. My son was a quarter mile south in a tree stand and saw 25 different deer! In all my 60 plus years deer hunting I've never seen deer movement like that!

Congrats to all that have had a successful season thus far. Been hard keeping up with everyone the last couple weeks. Been processing every day, skinning every night until well after dark. Sunday was our last day of firearm. Cooler will be empty tomorrow, Thanksgiving Thursday, heading back down to Indiana Friday to hopefully get 4 more doe's. Unseasonably warm here, hopefully the lakes will freeze up and I can start ice fishing when I get home.

I'll probably never see deer movement like that again but yes it does.

Thanks for the encouraging words Bill, I will stick it out till the end. I also hunt in Perry County and there was really an influx of out of state hunters in my areas the last 2 weeks of bow season. I never seen so many trucks with out of state plates on them. These deer were definitely pressured this year. I'm sure you know why there's more pressure. I was curious last season after I saw a video so I did a little internet sleuthing. Maybe Matt Rinella is on to something.. Hunt QuietlyYes. THP from youtube were in Indiana just right down the road from me. I am tlking 1/10th of a mile. They also brought their boat and went on Oil creek. So Of'course there were all kinds of guys parked where the THP guys hunted and they all had boats and Kayaks. I know it is public land but dang I know I counted at least 20 trucks from out of state within 3 miles of my house the last week of October and 1st week of November. It was crazy. Thanks alot THP for ruining my area.

Ended up with 3 does and a half rack yesterday evening. Heading out shortly, not exactly sure what the plan is, but I am on vacation and that's good enough! Be safe and shoot straight!

Heading out this morning. Still waiting for the right buck to give me an opportunity. Hopefully persistence pays off this year. Good luck to anyone getting out this morning.

I’ll be heading out for a short morning hunt, until 11ish, then go get ready to head up north for family. I enjoy getting to hunt the family farm in northern Indiana on Thanksgiving day every year

Well, I got blown at twice on the walk in. Got in my stand and had a deer run right to me. Don’t know what it was but it stood there for a bit and then worked back the way it came from. 🤷🏻♂️

Remington area, it’s actually my wife’s family farm, that’s where she was born and raised. Completely different country than what I’m used to down here, it’s nice to switch it up

Completely different country than what I’m used to down here, it’s nice to switch it up I'm not sure where you're currently located but, here in Jasper County there's a lot of ag and flat land. I enjoyed going down to Greene County and seeing/exploring that different terrain while turkey hunting.

I enjoyed going down to Greene County and seeing/exploring that different terrain while turkey hunting. We live in Monroe county, the farm is in newton county. My favorite is the large hardwood forest with big steep ridges, I guess it feels more rugged in a way. The farm up north is 400 acres of open ag field and 80 of woods, essentially one long wood line. I see loads of deer every time I go up because the wood line is a defined transition they like to travel in. I would hunt it more often if it wasn’t 3 hours away and my woods weren’t in the backyard 😁
