Congrats guys! I hope this trend continues for the rest of us. ... It'd help if I'd get out in the woods
Great deer! We are rolling guys Be back in the woods on Thursday evening and all day Friday Won't be hunting the weekend as it is antlerless only this coming weekend Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Congrats to both of you!!! We're doing well! Should be moving up the board quickly! I had an encounter with 4 does tonight came in quick left even faster. Better luck tomorrow!! Good luck everyone!!
Thanks guys! We have a little history with this buck. Lots of trail cam pictures and he is super old. Decided he wasn't going good to get any bigger. His body was massive! Gave me a nice 25 yard shot so I let it rip and he went 60 yards and died in site. All on video too. When I get the video back I'll post it up.
Well I spend 35 hours in a tree from 10/1 - 10/5.. The first morning I saw 3 deer, 2 does and a spotty. I couldn't get a shot on the does due to some brush where they came out. The deer were only 16yds away at one point but when I had the shot, I couldn't draw and when I could draw, I didn't have the shot. That afternoon I sat on a foodplot. This is an elongated plot and it is starting to look good. Traditionally deer walk out about 1/2 down and then walk East towards an oak bottom. Well I was set up in a ladder stand off the plot in great cover for the deer to walk past me and get a shot. At 6:20 (right before sunset), through the brush east of me, I see tines walking away. A great 8pt had come out the creek down the plot of me at 25yds and I had absolutely zero shot! view from stand: new view from stand: buck that walked out (this is him passing back, in front the stand this time, at night): After that exciting first day I only really saw one doe and she also didn't give me a shot. We have to do a little stand moving now that we see which oaks are getting hit more than others this season.
Sat out all day yesterday and had a pretty good morning. I don't do much hunting in the mornings in the early season but it was pretty cool this weekend so I went out on Sunday. 6 deer total that morning one pretty good buck but I only saw him for a second. Didn't see a single deer that afternoon. I won't be able to get back out until the 15th so hopefully I can get on the board!
Just a reminder to have Two photos that have the deer, hunter and bow in them, Date & Time of kill, Team number, Breakdown in scoring for all bucks over 50" for your entries. Looks like we're doing good on ours so far but some other entries from other teams are missing some stuff. Just want to make sure we get all of our deer counted. Good luck team and lets keep this rolling!
Pulling an all day sit tomorrow! I'll be solo until 4pm then my fiance will be coming out to try and get her first deer. Wish us luck
Stopped by my property and wondering if October lull is hear camera had been out since sept 30 and only had 17 pictures 2 weeks before had over 500 on same camera No matter will be out on Thursday evening Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I thought this was a doe, tool a hypodermic to the heart at 50 yards. All on video, I shot two last night. I called in one of the k9 blood tracking dogs for the second one. Blood everywhere then just stopped then rained. I shot her at 25 yards slightly quartering away. Not the buck I would've liked to enter but I'll tell ya it will eat just as good!
Nice job Billy To me it's meat in the freezer so it's all good We all want to shoot the monster but it's the experience and providing for your family and others Good luck the rest of the season Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Thanks guys! I have a deer tracking dog coming out now to help me find the second one. There should be more services like that around. Hopefully I'll have good news in a few hours
Good luck to everyone hunting today or this weekend I'm getting my stuff ready for this evening then heading to the gym and work then to the woods around 4. Then I'll sit both morning and evening on Friday. Probably won't hunt the weekend being its antlerless only this weekend in Ohio. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
