    That atleast is reassuring that I'm not the only one not seeing movement. You start to second guess your every thing you do.

    I decided to try a little rattling for the first time this season and nothing. Instead of thinking there are no bucks in the area I am choosing to believe the giant herd of bucks in the timber are all sissies.

    Sorry about the video, not sure what's wrong? Just had a lone doe come thru, but since I am only allowed one deer a year, she got a pass..

    Saw probably 20 deer tonight. No idea what had them up and around in this weather. Had a 2yr 8pt chasing does around. And another 3yr 10 that's probably low 120s. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1414377233.543706.jpg ImageUploadedByTapatalk1414377243.446610.jpg

    This Friday it's supposed to be a about 10-15 temp drop from the rest of the week. I'll be in the woods chasing Mr. Big for sure. Now if I could just get my buddy Dave to connect it would be a great season! I started teaching him how to hunt 5yrs ago, it's been a long journey. It's been a lot of fun watching him learn and grow but a lot of close encounters and near misses. I think he's a little worn this season, it would mean the world to him to connect. I'd almost, "almost" rather see him connect with a big doe than myself kill a big buck. Regardless it's good to be in the woods chasing these magnificent animals!! What a privilege. Next three weeks should be awesome.
