One doe who saw me before I saw her. She was quiet, got within 20 yards to my left look down she staring at me. Walked off but knew I was there.

First sit this morning, had a a decent 8 pt behind me, held out for a bigger deer since I wanted to beat my personal best of 100 1/2 inches, and not 10 minutes later a tallish 10 pt comes towards me from the front! Not the biggest buck I have ever seen, but snuck a bolt just forward of his shoulder, and bam. Waiting for him to die 15 yards from my stand. I think he is taller than my last buck. He's got a split tine. As I said not the biggest I have seen (I've had two or three Booners around me before but also had always created a situation where I couldn't shoot) but probably going to be my biggest one. And as I finished editing a small 6 walks behind me.

Been two hours. Shot him a third time, slit throat, still not dead! Never shot such a resilient deer!

Just finished a scouting loop on HNF. Jumped 1 unknown deer. I get so aggravated walking way into the woods into a promising area only to stumble across a fresh atv trail. Found a nice hen of the woods mushroom I packed out.

My morning hunt ended with just the one deer sighting. Back to the house for some grub and a quick run to town. Back at it this afternoon. I'll hunt another part of the farm this afternoon.

Well the barn was burning before I got on the scene. 2 doe were already on their feet and moving so they blew me out before I got started. Then about 20 minutes later a another hunter came in with a head lamp and had about a 50 yrd area lit up like a 7-11. I enjoy the challenge of public hunting but golly it sure is tough

Hey can anyone tell me how to contact the administrator? I have pics and Tapatalk but can't log into this forum on Tapatalk. It's telling me "internal error: contact forum administrator." Not happy about that. The other forum I am on works perfectly fine on Tapatalk.

I enjoy the challenge of public hunting but golly it sure is tough Better luck next time. It was a great morning to be out. Clear, a bit windy, and cold. Same conditions as the day I shot last year's buck from the same stand. Saw an 8 pt, a small 6 pt, and when I walked down to drop some stuff in he ATV my dad drove down, a spike was up one of our other stands.
