    Nothing here... I only was able to hunt Sunday morning and the winds were steady at 15 to 20 mph. Seen two small bucks early on and headed out of the stand fairly early. This should be a pretty good week to hunt in Indiana, gun season opens on Saturday. I might be able to get out Saturday morning this week - that will be it though. Any thing I harvest is going to have to be a post rut kill. That's ok because I have a lot of acorns on my property that hold deer, especially when the snow starts falling.

    Had a very uneventful weekend in Jo Davies County. Will be back at it later this week. Did see one giant on the property last night hopefully he is staying in the area!

    What happened guys?

    This place got quiet... We got to 2nd place and everyone just stopped talking?? lol What happened? Anyone still hunting for big bucks? Who's moving on to gun season this weekend?

    I am going to cut out of the office early and get a hunt in this evening and then will probably get back out on Saturday morning (opening of gun season here in Indiana). Look to keep hunting with the bow into gun season.

    So good luck and keep at it.

    My job has me walking the great Iowa country side all day.
    Came across these guys at Lake Manawa State Park, just down the road from my house.
    To bad there's no hunting in the park.

    Probably gun hunting all weekend - I was in hopes someone else here would have done put another big buck down. If that was the case I'd probably try and fill my bow buck tag. If I can't fill it here in the next couple of weeks I might have some luck with the bow once we get some snow fall as I've got some great late season locations once the snow falls. Just sit on them acorns and watch things get busy!

    Haven't been on in a while pc was down for the count and in the shop for repairs
    Haven't had a chance to get out much and now shotgun season is on here in Iowa so archery is on hold for a few days.
    I've seen some pretty nice bucks while out working so I know they're out there, hopefully I can add to our total soon.

    Hey sorry I haven't been around guys, been busy with final's week and just life. Got some good news and some bad news. Bad news is my property is pretty hunted up, happens every year about this time the deer just have exited the area looking for better food sources (hoping to fix that next season) Also I have been gun hunting and will be again this weekend. BUT I recently got ahold of about 35 acres of good property to hunt scouted it today, found the biggest scrape of my life. I will be there this weekened but if i see good activity I will be back there through out the next few weeks, I dont have school till Jan 9. wish me luck!

    Well I know I haven't been around in awhile. Congratulations to all of you that were able to harvest deer this season. Sadly I can not say that I did this season. It was a very uneventful year for me. I never saw a deer within 150 yards of me.
