Checked a couple of cards from this weekend over lunch and I am jacked!! Ill check the rest of the cards tonight and post some pictures but it is going to be a fun fall!!!
Dang that's a great buck, I was hoping to get out tonight but I have a dinner date with the wife and daughter so I'll be out probably tomorrow
Nice buck buckeye! Congrats to your buddy! I haven't been around much lately. I've been super busy trying to get caught up at the office after my mule deer hunt. I've hunted twice this season with plans to just kill a doe....once in IL and once in MO. Didn't see a deer in IL. Hunted behind my house in MO yesterday just hoping to kill a doe because I haven't gotten a single picture of a good buck so far this year. I just got set up in the tree about 4:30 yesterday afternoon, heard crashing to my left and 3 bucks ran by at 25 yards....a big 140's class 8-point, followed by a 6-point and another 8-point almost identical to the first buck. A minute later I heard a coyote howl where they came from. The bucks hung out about 125 yards from me in the woods and never made it up my way. Crazy! I was screwing with my phone trying to connect my GoPro to it when they ran through so I didn't get any video. If the wind is right this afternoon, I'll be back in there. Doe hunting just got put on hold.
Sorry for the delay, it took me longer to go through pictures than I expected. Here are some of the most interesting pictures I got from the latest pull. You will see on buck on a few cameras that is obviously our #1, I believe he is "Ghost Rider" from last year because he was only photographed at night a couple times and never seen or heard from again. I'm glad he is making more steady appearances!
What do you guys think on the age of the buck in the pic WGI_0016(1)? It looks like he is going to be a 120-125" 10 pt, and he is very identifiable with that torn ear, but I can't decide if he is 2 or 3. His antlers scream 2 for this area, but his body looks long and his bell sags a little and he does have a small brisket... Curious on your guys' thoughts
Looks like solid 3 year old a great deer with lots of potential big body too Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk
Going to be sitting tonight. Can't resist with this cold front coming through. Picking a new tree on a fence line over looking a huge Crp field. I'll have a corn field 2 yards to my south and the deer head to it from the timber to the north. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I'll be sitting on the yellow line where it heads south. Basically at the break of the line. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I'm hoping he shows up! Picked this up this spring and it scored in the high 70's. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Brushed in a Ghost blind in a swamp bottom this afternoon. First time using one and pretty impressed at how well it blends in. We'll see how it works this weekend. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Well I'm finally gonna make it back to the woods. I am gonna try to get out this evening. If that doesn't work I will be hunting both tomorrow morning and evening and Sunday morning. I'm ready to sit in a stand.
