Lol, I didn't even notice that Ferg. Thanks for pointing that out! Got my doe entered and we are currently at 264 1/8". Not bad for just three deer thanks to Ryan's monster buck. We are off to a good start!
I'm good for a doe and i am just waiting for a good north wind to get a crack at a buck that i keep seeing. There are a ton of deer on this farm and with all the crops down now there is a lot less cover to hide them.
was on the ground tonight at my bear bait.. had 2 does walk below me, then a little buck came out 60 yards above where I was sitting right before dark then just as I shut off my camera a hefty ole sow and cub showed up on the bait (cant shoot sows with cubs here).. I finally had to huff at her so I could leave. Big girl, probably 300lbs.. fun night even though I didnt kill anything
I can't wait to get back out. Probably won't be able to till next week wednesday though. Pretty busy week with my gil
Darn it hit the wrong button! Pretty busy weekend with my girls and my nephew went back into the hospital last night. Good luck to everyone that can get out though!
Probably won't get back out until next week sometime either. This weekend I may go do a quick speed scouting session on the property I shot my doe off, that was only my second time on that property so I've still got a lot to learn. The warm temperatures they are calling for will likely stall deer movement unfortunately
boy U aint kidd'n... we just have alot of talent and power on this team, everyone is wondering whats going on!
Just wait to see how many we have towards the end of the contest! Picked up a new Gorilla camera arm today! Seems like it is pretty good quality! I also ordered another better camera arm from a guy from another site! So excited to get out and film the rest of the season. I was trying to use my Pine Ridge arm but had nothing but problems with it! I did a bit of filming last weekend but held the camera which really doesn't work so ths will be so much better now! Whoelse is filming and where are you posting your video's at?
Good luck to all you guys that are able to get out this weekend! I won't be able to but I think that I will be able to get out on Tuesday and part of next weekend! Really hoping to see my text inbox light up this weekend! Or give me a ring!
Hey guys, video is finally up! http://www.bowhunting.com/videos/bowhunting-videos/bow-hunt-or-die-01-illinois-opening-weekend_886
If you guys want to start seeing more action, then you need to checkout the buck fever products from buck fever usa! Troy is prostaffed and using this stuff and I'm using it, we are huge believers in this stuff. If you want to text me or pm me for further info, do it; this stuff is the best stuff on the market by far. I can get everyone on our team 15% off promo code, get back too me and goodluck!
Ryan, educate me on this mock scrape thing. I've never done it or looked into it (up until this year I've only hunted public land) so i guess I'm kinda stupid when it comes to that stuff. How does it work?
Cody, great job on the story and the video of you doe harvest. I'm looking forward to seeing you knock down an Illinois monster next!
Congrats Cody! Great job filming yourself! I will have a camera rolling with me on every hunt from now on! Looking so forward to getting all my hunts on film!
Just confirmed my schedule and I will be in a tree from sun up till sun down on both Tuesday and Wednesday. I will again be in a doe only area and back in the same tree that I seen the 5 doe in last Sunday evening! Can't wait!
Jumped 2 doe about 60 yards from my stand on the way in this afternoon then had another small doe working just outside my range while on the stand a couple hours later. I didn't get to sit where I really wanted to tonight due to the wind. I should have time tomorrow after my sons football game for another evening hunt tomorrow.
