Y’all having any luck? Just got settled in for an evening hunt, was gonna go Saturday morning but the rain messed that up.

Congrats sj!! Glad you connected! Looks like a good healthy buck. He’ll eat good for sure.

First blood works for me too.

No deer but got rid of this rascal

Good job

Saw 3 nanny’s this evening but with the swirling winds they spooked and had 3 more blow at me later so they were moving

It happens sj. I had 3 racked bucks come by me the other evening. One was a hoss. They were south of me at 80 yards and we had a NNE wind. It was like watching a ticking time bomb that never went of. I just knew I was about to get busted. They never smelled me though. Still don't know how. The wind was headed right to em. If I would have had my climber with me I would have climbed in that area they walked by because that was where all the sign is this year for some reason. I have hunted that spot all my life and know it like the back of my hand but something has changed this year. I have had a loc on in the same tree for years there but it looks like the next time I go in to hunt it, I will be moving it. I just got lucky that they didn't smell me and they didn't smell where I had walked in either. They looked like they was out for an evening stroll and never put their head down. Oughta be a good weekend to kill one. Good luck y'all.

Got a nanny this morning

Well damn SJ just go ahead and sit the rest of the season out. Lol. You piling em up.

Haha, I ain’t sitting out!! I just have to kill em early before they get educated!!

I usually do the same thing. This time last year I had a doe and a 9pt in the freezer. I'm slackin this year. My goal this year is pope and young or better on some public land. I've spent the majority of my time looking for him, but have yet to find him. I know where a few were during the rut, but I've been trying to pin point their early season home territory like I did with the 9pt last year. They are hard for me to find this year. Then I've had just plain bad luck on my land. That is about to change though.

I hear ya, I hope you get him! I’m hunting a small piece of land around my house so no high expectations, in 20 years I’ve never seen a mountable deer, we do have some good ones on the club I’m in but haven’t hunted it yet because of a busy schedule but that’ll change soon enough.

Them small pieces of land are the best! Best of luck bud.

Same to you man

Way to get us some early points on the board. I am hoping a doe tries slipping by me tomorrow and I can add on a few.

Good job sj.

I’m headed to Kentucky later this week. Maybe I’ll be able to knock down a good un.

Sounds like like fun, hope you have good hunting weather and safe travels

Got us a doe, I'll put her up on the board as soon as I get home.

Good job!!

Bad news fellas - I struck out in KY this year. Looks like my timing was off on the rut by a week. I came back home today, and expect the rut to start firing this week. Sucks for sure, but nothing I can do about it. Oh well.

Congrats Reptar!
