Hit the new stand location lastnight. slipped in at 3pm and at 3:45 I had two bucks cruise by at 60 yards. As soon as I saw them I knew they were nothing special, first was a 100 class 8 point. Second buck was a good size fork buck, large rack, large body but I could tell he was young. Around 4:30 the wind did a complete 180, sat there for 10 minutes to see if it would switch back and it didnt. Got down and relocated to a better stand for the east wind. Saw 1 doe at 40 yards around 6pm, no shot. Dave
Went out this past weekend saw a couple does each sit. (non within shooting range) Pretty slow weekend, buddy shot I coyote I filmed it. Nothing exciting to report here
Went all day Sunday and saw nothing but Squirrels. Heading out Sunday all day again. looking like rain here in East TX for Saturday.
Are any of you using cover scents or scent killer? I wash My clothes in Scent Killer Gold and I use the Earth scent cover sray from Wildlife research Center. It works great in My Opinion.
I've been out a few times since opening day. I have been seeing quite a few deer but nothing worth shooting. I did have a couple small does at 30yds the other day but elected to pass on them and wait to see what else walked past. Still have a ton of season left.
We have a buck that will be on the board soon! I shot a good 130's to 140's eleven this morning. If I had remembered to take pictures of my doe I would have all the points I could, but will get another at some point! Hope everyone is having some luck out there!
Was out last night. Got in the stand about 2:30 after a while I hear what sounds like 2 people on a steady walk. I look an there is a big ol girl. I slowly stand up and get my bow in hand. I knock. She stops right behind 2 cedar tree saplings. can not see her body only her head. I draw back and wait for her to get in the opening about 20yrds. I hold full draw for what seems like for ever. Cant hold any more she isn't moving. let down Coyote comes in and spook's her. DAMN! so close.
Great job clift. Good Lookin buck! Pretty tough weekend for me, rained up here in Illinois pretty much the whole time! Got pretty wet. Almost took a doe Sat. night buck a lil 1.5 year ol buck pushed her away before I could get a good shot at her! Keep at it boys things should only pick up from here!
by the way clift you have to enter that deer in the scorecard board for us to get points, So get it to it man!!
Yeah I know I have been in this contest since I joined, I just ran out of time to score him yesterday do to trying to get all the meat butchered. Once I get him scored this weekend, I will get him up on the scoreboard!! Thanks everyone!
