    Congrats Ben! Way to start the season off!

    My Colorado elk hunt was a bust. 85-90 degree temps during the day had the elk moving at night...if they moved at all. I saw elk one day on my 7 day hunt and I missed a cow at 60 yards. Long story short...there were a dozen cows moving in front of me between 60 and 80 yards. I was dialed in at 70 when I thought I was dialed in at 60. Clean miss right over her back and that was it. I'm ready for deer season.

    GD I love seeing us in first... It's going to be a long season and we are up against a great set of teams that all share our passion but it's the little victories. I salute you Red White and 22

    Did some work at the property today, chips were just filled to the brim with does, not much for bucks though, that happens on our little property. We hunt cruising bucks
    About 1/3 of the property is bedding area just full of does so we get a lot of bucks cruising at rut.

    I'm in the same boat for one of mine. It's all about putting in the time and being there when it's right

    Best buck I've got so far and the first pic/vid I got of him. He came to a mock scrape I put up before I left for Colorado. I put a couple mocks out in Illinois as well. I'll hopefully be able to check those cams this week. This guy isn't that great but he might get shot. We'll see what else turns up.

    Did you get any other pics of Jeff? I'm always interested to see if you can see the wound that causes the odd rack

    I've got tons of pictures of him but that was really the only one that was day light where you could see him clear. I actually took a picture of him in the video I got of him

    I kind of want to say 3.5. He's got some beef on him when you watch the video. I tried posting it but couldn't figure out how. Midwest white tails posted it on Instagram you can check it out there
