Definitely a 3.5 but that's a good sign. The younger bucks always start moving in daylight the end of October. In my experience is usually not until 10/31 or after until I see a 4.5 or older in daylight. Good Luck guys.
I'm hitting it hard tomorrow, sitting a stand that's been money for me in the past. Sunday looks like a rainy mess, so I'm hoping tomorrow will be good.
Mature bucks have been on their feet in daylight for the past week and a half for us. They just have been on a bedding/feeding pattern and casually bumping doe. Not moving all over the place so harder to kill. I think it largely depends on the property you hunt and buck bedding location relative to where you’re hunting.
Passed that 3.5 again multiple times. He cleared the doe and fawns out of the plot so now I feel like I can fart at least! Plenty of daylight left. Buck scent should be everywhere as he was with a different 2.5. Just need a mature buck to do the same thing!
Man that’s got to be exciting. Maybe with all that sent and commotion he’s created it’ll bring the older ones. Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
Got it done tonight guys! It’s been a heck of a week… so I thought my bow was in these pictures and it’s not… hopefully I can count my video evidence, I am going in after a doe in the AM though so hopefully that pans out
Congratulations again Adam! You sure earned that one. Good luck this weekend team. Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
All settled in for my evening hunt. Hoping my target “High and Tight” shows up before dark. Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
Only saw 7 does and fawns last night. Settled in for this morning. Good luck this morning team 5. Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
Just realized I didn’t post my buck on here! I messaged LC to see if my video evidence counts for the 50 points so I will let you guys know then!
Not hunting today due to 78 degrees, winds are howling and chance of tornadoes. I drove around earlier and saw an entire section of 600 plus acres of standing corn about a half mile from the house. May have something to do with few deer pics. I still haven't seen a deer from the stand this year .
I'm back home. I was going to stay in Ohio until tomorrow but they were calling for rain this afternoon and tomorrow. If it would have been colder I may have stayed but it was lows in the 50's and highs in the high 60's. I'll be headed back on Friday. The big bucks still aren't showing on camera in the daylight. We talked with a neighbor that has adjoining property and ask if we had any pictures of the 160" - 170" 10 points. So far we haven't but come gun season we always get big bucks that come on our property. The 165" buck I shot last year didn't show up until the end of November when they had the gun season.
