I've hunted 2 nights in the first week in PA. First night I saw a big 10 and never got him into range. Also saw a decent 8 but wasn't what I was after. Last night, I hunted for about 45 minutes. Saw this buck but I gave him a free pass. Needs another year. Curly 10 11 - YouTube Once of the heavy 8's I'm after came out right before dark with a little 5 pointer but wouldn't come any closer.
Slow weekend for me. Had 8 deer out in the field. Large doe and a fawn walked right under my stand so the doe got a pass.
Well got out saturday for an aftenoon/evening hunt.. Didn't have anything move around.. was beautiful out.. nice cool after a rainy morning no wind.. perfect.. But nothing.. Checked trail camera card after getting home.. Had 2 bears 2 bucks. one was a spike the other hard to tell if he's a 6 or an 8.. camera blur... But i think he's the one... Mr Tree destroyer.. cause he was coming right from the rubs.. Also had two does, a couple of rabbits and one porcupine.. So there movement but it is sporadic... So going to scout a few more back up spots.
Taking wife to hospital for an all afternoon procedure Gotta' work Wed, Thurs, and Sat this week... BUT - I'm off all next week! Thank you Lord (and Elsie my boss). Going to give my cousin's farm a try tomorrow... he has deer move through his property but none really 'live' there. Friday, I'll drive the 40 miles to my Amish buddy's farm and hang out in my ground blind - in the corner of a corn field next to the woods. I'll have a much better chance at shooting a doe there. Good luck to all you guys out there!
Got the stand moved today it is really windy out which made for a good time to move it saw no deer at the plot today unless it was because of my racket but I was still as stealthy as I could possibly be so #1 Stand moved equals dead deer as im sure this weekend is gonna hold some good action may get out before then will see. Hope all is well with the whole team. I will keep u all posted. Good luck
Guess who is on the north side of the food plot!!!!! Staring at the purple hull peas at the moment hoping something moves. Yep the wind is starting to settle it has been a constant north breeze all day but is settling down just before dark perfect hoping my sent killer saves me fellas. This will be my last sit til early Saturday morning an Sat. Evening lets hope I get a shot here tonight. Hope all is well with you guys an dont work to hard this week catch yall later.
No luck at my cousins... working today, will be at my Amish buddies farm tomorrow. Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk
Well saw a tiny buck and about 6 does. Could of shot Every one but the big doe had 3 babies with her and I just couldn't shoot her. The other big doe was way out of range. Will try again in the evening
So far all I`ve seen this morning. What a meal these two will make for my Amish buddy and his family. Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk
I would have shot the big one but you made a good call. Let them make it through the season! Good luck this evening!
How many times did you slip an arrow behind their shoulders in your mind while sitting there all morning :D
