Just got back from the farm and it was a great morning. Temp was 40degrees and clear skies. I had a 8 and 10pt. 15 yards from my tree. 8pt. was there for about 5 min. and the 10pt. was there for about 10min. Coulda easily shot both of them but not quite what I want. Both woulda scored around 110". Had turkeys gobbling about 100 yards from me. Then 4 does came running through and bout 5 min. later I found out why. A coyote came walking through. Even though I didn't kill anything, it was one helluva fun morning!
Right on MO, just goes to show you dont have to kill to enjoy it all. I had a great night last night just being out there..didnt kill a thing! Good luck to u this season.
same ..beats teaching these little 7th and 8th graders ...little punks....haha i wish i could have been sitting in a stand this morning...gonna be back out tonight though.soo
How many bucks are you allowed in MO? I am from Illinois and we are allowed two bucks per year no matter what weapon we use.
Exactly! Just being out there, seeing the deer in their natural state and all the other animals is all that matters. Although I wish I coulda gotten a shot at the coyote. Killing a deer is a bonus! Good luck to you too. We are allowed 2 bucks w/ bow here in MO, but only one can be killed before gun season. Allowed 1 during gun season too, so we can actually kill 3 bucks here in MO. And ya, it definitely beats working. A bad day in the woods is always better than a good day at work!
In Missouri, we can take 2 bucks. 1 buck before our rifle season, which starts Nov 14 I believe, and 1 after. If you don't have 1 buck before then you can take two after. You can shoot Infinite amount of does. You also can also take one buck during rifle and infinite amount of does. Tags for does are only 7 bucks.
isnt it funny that even when we dont harvest an animal we can still have a great time, just BEING out there!
Some of my best hunts were when the bow wasn't even lifted off of the hanger. Sounds exciting as hell MO!!! Good stuff!!!
