Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I’m hunting my wife’s family farm in northern Indiana today. Got here about 45 min before first shot so I sat in the truck to stay warm for 20 min then headed out. Not used to this big open country and saw the daylight was already breaking the horizon well before first shot so I hurried along the tree line. As I was approaching what looked like a bedding area/funnel to open field I saw a big bodied deer run into the woods. Not entirely sure he saw me, I made the decision to go set up nearby. Well 10 minutes later this very large bodied buck was working through the tall grass and stepped into the field. As soon as he turned his head I decided he was big enough for me. 40 yard shot, he jumped and took about 5 steps and crashed, then I heard a large exhale, I knew he was expired already. Love this 350 legend. I’m going to keep sitting a little longer because the brother in law wants some deer meat.  Congratulations on that big ol stud! |

So that arrow was in him?! Did he previously shoot it or someone else? Arrow was in it . Someone else shot it was healed over maybe from last year ? Such tough animals! |

My nephew got his buck this morning. I’m still out here plugging away.  He's a very cool looking buck! Congratulations! |

I hunt in Jasper County and I saw at least 6 different bucks over the last 4 days. We had hot does bringing in all of them. The bucks really get fired up when there is a hot doe around. It always amazes me. I guess when She is horny only once or twice a year you need to take advantage of that! 😂 Good luck everyone out. Stay safe and have a Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🍁🍽. I hadn't been out since the 11th but, I hunt central Jasper County and my woods were on fire with chasing the first week of November. I'm eager to get back out Friday morning to see how things are going. I know on the 18th, almost all of my hunting neighbors tagged bucks and they were all talking about the chasing going on. |

Whereabouts up north are you headed? It's always nice to be home! 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 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 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! It makes you wanna go back again tomorrow doesn't it?! |

That's one of the wildest things I have ever seen!
That buck had only two things in his mind, fighting and....well....you know.
