I'm up and headed out to look for lost deer. It's cold out there this morning. I wondering if I shouldn't have waited until a little later to start this morning. Good luck to everyone who's tough enough to get out in this. Hope you get a big 'un.

Re: LFTT - 01/08/17 08:23 AM

I know it sounds crazy, but I'm at Choccolocco WMA walking to check some food plots. The last gun hunt here was at Christmas, it's a ghost town, so I'm just seeing how the plots look so I can bow hunt during the week the rest of the season. Might not be worth a turd, but I'll have it to myself!

Set up on a power line in Cahaba. Lots of fresh tracks when I scouted here a week or so ago. I've seen where some say they have seen chasing and rutting activity out here but I've yet to see a scrape or rub.

Re: LFTT - 01/08/17 08:40 AM

Just got settled in. Thinned pines for me this morning. The rut is getting close here. Gonna sit as long as I can.

Re: LFTT - 01/08/17 08:55 AM

My phone is now showing 15° for my location. Glad the wind isn't blowing today. It'd be unbearable.

6:47 is sunrise, so 30 minutes before would be 6:17 to legally shoot isn't it?

Re: LFTT - 01/08/17 09:47 AM

As cold as it is, it would be a great day to go sit in a nice warm church and worship the most high God who blessed us all with these wonderful things we love and enjoy so much. For those of you who aren't churchgoers, I pray the Lord will be with you and bless you where ever you find yourself this morning. And I pray you all will consider him and all he has done for us all.

Well dang I thought they had changed it this year but then I checked the 16-17 regulation book on outdoor Alabama and regulation 220-2-.07 still reads daylight hours so I thought maybe it didn't pass. Where can I find the new rule?

Go to the 'Changes' page.

They defined daylight hours as 30 mins before/after sunrise/sunset.

Re: LFTT - 01/08/17 02:31 PM

Went early this morning was 7 degrees at daylight according to my truck sat to 10 then down for church. Haven't seen a deer from the stand since getting back from Nebraska early November but I be darn if I didn't hit a 6 point on the way home for lunch not far from my in laws in the middle of town. No damage to the vehicle other than my drink exploded on the dash when I sent my wife's mini van into a power slide so all is good. Deer looked like he broke his rear right leg down low where the wheel rolled over it. He laid down in the ditch but when I turned around he jumped up and ran like a bat out of hell.

Well back in the tree again bow in hand. Hunted this same spot this morning and had a spike at 10 yards. Climbed down and pulled the card in my camera and had the buck I'm after in here last night @ 7. I hope he will slip through earlier this evening. Good luck fellas

Well I am on my first hunt of the season on the edge of a field with a few scrapes on it bow in hand. A member just missed a pig so at least something is moving smile

Re: LFTT - 01/08/17 04:33 PM

Present here in Baldwin co. Sitting on the edge of a creek with food plot on the hill to my west. Beautiful day to hunt, just wish the wind was a little more consistent.

My son and I saw 10 last night. Three were 1.5 year old bucks. Hopefully the older bucks will be up and moving soon.

Good luck!

Re: LFTT - 01/08/17 04:57 PM
