    Well, that’s it for me. Just saw the one 6pt. I really thought there would be more moving. Need to get some stuff done around the house.

    Definitely some good action for alot of you guys. I will be heading to stand this afternoon, after work. I'm going to try some public land. Found a good pinch point years ago. The wind is perfect for deer to come thru it tonight heading from bedding to food. The bad side is the wind is bad for me, so lm taking a 2 mile hike in a big circle to get on the other side of them and set up. Let's see if it works!

    I've had bobcat a couple times and there's nothing at all wrong with it. I would definitely eat it again.

    Congrats on the kills folks! Wish I could be in the stand this morning

    Hey Joe I bought one of these with what was left of my Cabelas gift card from last Christmas. For like $20 I thought what the heck. I keep what clothes I plan on wearing my next time out in a plastic bin and drop that little guy in there for about a half hour to 45 mins before I head out and it does work. Tried it with cig smoke smelling clothes (from the wifes parents) and they came out fresh.

    I'm on the move with my poor shooting buck fever self....looked like a mature 6 or 8 pt. Definitely 3 or older. Not a big one but a solid public land buck.

    First picture looked like food matter in the blood. Gonna assume that's why you said this.

    Good luck on the track.

    Good stuff this morning and congrats! Good luck with that track job.

    Just got out of work, hitting the shower and grabbing gear.

    Not sure what a guy like me did to deserve this success this year
    ...so early. Havent told you guys but my 14 yr old son has been very sick lately. Autoimmune disorder. We have been battling our insurance company for a long time to pay for the costs of some major treatment over the next 6 months. It's been awful to see his decline. But the costs would bankrupt my family and we have him on meds until the real strong treatment can begin. Just last week those bastards at the insurance company relented and we got the medication sent directly to our house...the 2 day blood treatment is nearing...and twice a month for probably 6 to 12 months he will need blood therapy
    .....Told my wife I'm gonna hunt my tail off early bc when its go time
    ....I'm done. He will need to be monitored closy.


    This is unreal......

    Was lowering my bow around 10am bc thr winds were changing....saw him coming. Hoisted it. Stopped him. Shot from weird angle. Watched him walk off into the blowdowns. Arrow and ground showed good blood but food particles. This particular area is closed tomorrow so no long wait. I would have waited until tomorrow but it's not open.

    Parked and put on a stalk after 3 hrs with the wind in my face. Went right to where I saw him last and I got him!!!
