    It’s a solid thing to do, and they’re all blessings for sure. Congrats Dawg. Should be some tasty meals ahead there

    Had a mid 40s chase a doe in last night, but they came and went before I could grab bow or camera

    This morning saw about 12 deer, and almost got attacked by a crazy 6 point on the way in. Tip: watch your back if you use a scent drag

    I have literally never seen a deer after using a drag. Although I have seen numerous coyotes doing so.

    That is weird. Just quoted you when I read and looking now the original is gone. Sometimes these forums and this Tapatalk do weird things that really make no sense

    I gotta say seeing you with a down buck would be great, but that encounter coulda ended up more entertaining to read

    Haha, I literally had to bump this buck with my bow twice and finally hit him with my foot to get him to run off.

    That’s impressive. I’ve seen some good decoy vids and pics but coming right after you is awesome.
    Yup, I’m the kinda buddy that would sit and laugh, and get the camera out if I saw it happening to someone I knew

    This does not count for points but posted on the team page. I have already got my doe! Shot this button buck today. Pouring rain out so no hunt for tonight. The first pic is of a Button Buck that was from yesterday. This might be the same one since he did not want to move off the edge of the road. He sat there and let me take pictures then I left. I was 15 yards from him taking pictures. I say my prayers and thank the lord every day for the chance to enjoy the outdoors. Then as I harvest I thank the Lord again for my harvest. Don't get me wrong I am no saint but I am a believer. The reason I say this is that everyone needs to stay safe in their stands. I have heard reports of many hunters that have fallen already. So far no one has passed and all just injured. Please be safe and wear your safety equipment. Don't need to lose one of my teammates since we have a few more years to stay as the CHAMPS!

    Amen brother. My mother gave me a rosary as a child. That thing has been through a lot. Came with me to Afghanistan, every single time I travel for work(which is over 90 flights a year) and every time I'm in the woods.

    Absolutely be thankful for your health and safety. Cause without that, all the money, trophys, and whatever else means nothing. Stay safe boys. Wear your harness.

    Well guys. Yahilyn didn't kill one. We saw 10 does but the closest they got was a little over 150 yards. She wanted a buck. This little lady can flat shoot. She rang a steel gong at 331 yards.
