Mondays afternoon spot has declared itself. He’s not the buck I’m after but I’ll take him if I get the chance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I’d be excited to get that one if he was in front of me, hopefully he comes by or the one your after does.
Well he came in after shooting light, had to bump him out of the field. Might try that stand one more time in the morning then give that stand a break and target a different buck. Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
Unfortunately, I've been staying busy with everything else but hunting. Got a window carved out for this upcoming weekend to get out Friday evening and sit all weekend if need be. Didn't run any cameras this year but drove by the piece i hunt on Saturday and saw a handful of deer right away. So fingers crossed.
Haha that's partly why I didn't run cameras this year. I know there's going to be something nice out there. Why ruin the surprise right?
Which stand would you guys pick? Top one is surrounded by a corn and a bean field (already out) and the bottom is surrounded completely by crp.
So for the ones who don’t know I shot a buck this morning. He came in making scrapes, all postured up. Another little 8 was in the area. The big buck came right to the bottom of my stand and was smelling my climbing sticks. Then he wrapped around and gave me a 8 yard shot. Well my sight was set on 40 from shooting yesterday. Thats why i hit him high, come to find out i didn’t hit him as high as i thought still high tho. Bumped him around 3. Walked right by him multiple times and didn’t even know he was there. He ran about 80 yards or so and bedded back down. Went back in and almost got another shot at him he got up ran up the hill hurting real bad and went down the other ridge. We backed out for the night as it got dark. Didn’t sound like he went too far. Hopefully find him within 100 yards or so. He was hurting. Will try to keep everyone updated tomorrow morning. This is him. Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums

Good luck Justin! Trying my hardest to get my work done so I can take off Thursday. Maybe even tomorrow too but that might be a long shot. Have Friday - Next Tuesday for all day sits. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Well we didn’t find him, walked over 5 miles. Don’t know what happened. Going to give it a couple days before i get back out. Frustrated with myself. Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums

Yeah, I’ll be watching for buzzards but think i just got top of one lung. Walked over 10 miles yesterday and today. Probably get back out Friday, maybe Thursday if the storm and rain lets up in the evening. Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
