    I watched a group of toms yesterday in a winter wheat field for awhile. All beards were just dragging the ground and one had a triple beard. Pretty cool they made quite a ruckus

    They are picking corn! 20231113_162456.jpg Walking in through standing corn, I got 5 yards away from a doe. In the corn I had no clear shot. 2 deer in the woods by my stand. Hoping they get this west part picked tonight. Should be exciting.

    That’s 2 different bear. That one with the swayed back is probably close to 500 lbs

    First bear looks like a 230/250 # sow.
    Second look like a bigger boar.

    couple nights ago. I may give up deer hunting and focus on these guys a while. No experience bear hunting at all, I did have one try to climb my tree last night though.

    Hoping he got a shot. There we about 8 other deer that way and they just came running back to the riverboats. I did no see the big buck with them.


    Well, as I'm typing this, I see him walking back to the cabin.:bow::biggrin:
