I called it around 11 today, this warm weather is too good to pass up on chores around the house. Hopefully next weekend is much cooler

I had really good action this morning. At least a dozen deer, probably more, hard to keep track of which ones I’d already seen. Four small bucks were grunting and chasing constantly from 0830 until noon, when I had to come in.

3 bucks this morning, first at daylight big body out in the field couldn’t tell much about rack, wouldn’t respond to rattle or grunt. 20 minutes later a little five came up on me and stayed within 39 yards for half hour. Got out of stand and had my stand on ground, was getting stuff together and turned with my climber and a small buck was 50 yards away. Think we both scared the help out of each other.
Has anyone seen the pics of the buck that jumped thru the house window on deleware county. Police were called and they killed it in the kitchen the pics are crazy

Just got home from Arizona. I came home through I64 and let me tell ya. Something must be going on. Dead deer everywhere on the interstate. I bet 90% of them were bucks. Also saw 2 different bucks running across a cut bean field no big racks though.

First evening sit of the year. I'm in a ladder stand on a wooded ridgetop funnel. I've taken some nice bucks from this spot over the last 17 years. Still pretty leaf covered though, and the thickness from timbering 5 years ago doesn't help.

In a different blind with Luke tonight. Got a ton of tracks going by at 25yds. I swapped cards at the blind from last night and had a buck trailing a doe this morning before light.
We didnt hunt this morning. We joined Schall53 and took a ride to Chain O Lakes to scout for our reduction hunt. I am pretty happy with my spot. Seen a buck and 2 antlerless, and a fresh scrape.

With about 15 minutes left of shooting light, I suddenly heard lots of grunts and brush crashing all around just on the other side of the ridgetop logging road I was 20 yards from. The grunts weren't very deep, so most likely it was a young buck. This went on for a few minutes, then silence. Not long after, I see a deer walking along the logging road with its head down following the exact path I took in. It stopped where I turned into the woods and was there smelling around or something before walking on. It was dim, but if it had antlers, they were spikes. Then a second deer repeated the actions of the first deer exactly, and I saw no rack on it either. Perhaps it was a spike and doe and they're what I heard running around. Or it could have been two totally different deer. Who knows? Lol!

Brian took off from duck hunting this morning for a sit in the deer stand. He cracked a 6 point, came home and said now I can concentrate on duck hunting…lol Of course as soon as he shot the 6 a big heavy 10 chased a doe right past him…hahahaha!

Well haven’t posted all weekend . Set Friday till noon seen one shooter buck at 820am never could get him closer then 80 yards . Only deer I seen . Saturday morning didn’t see anything until 1105 . Look up from the brush see an absolute tank of buck at 90 yards . He gets to 70 yards and the wind switched from south to the west . He snorts and takes off from where he came from . I’m not sure on points but I guessed him at 170 “ . After that I just packed up and went home .
Took today off from hunting with no hunting with the disable hunt going on at Crane .
I have yet to see a single doe all year in the stand . 80 hours of use or lose to burn up before first of year , would like to go after him again but weather doesn’t look the best until Thursday . He may never come back but I think it’s worth another try .

Got word this morning from my cousin that a guy he knows that lives close to one of our farms we hunt harvested one of our up and comers. He has a split G-2 on his left side. I was hoping he would make it at least one more year..oh well.

I was hoping he would make it at least one more year..oh well. Always a gamble. Have lost some good ones over years that strayed to far, but can't let it change your mgt. goals. Here at least , for everyone we lose, 5 or 6 live to see another season. Just part of it.

That sucks, it is hard to convince some to let that buck go one more year
