LFTT 1-6-18

Headed out in to this cold arse weather to kill a goat. Be safe all.

Still deciding on now or till the sun comes up?

Me too.
Anfernee is dranking coffee, getting ready to freeze.
Only going cause AMB said today would be good.
Wife said “I can’t believe you going out in this weather.”
“I ain’t no p***y,” I said. “Unless I get a boo-boo. Then all bets are off.”
In case I freeze to death this morning leaned against my tree, I’m going to leave a note:
“Take this rifle, it kilt the bare that kilt me.”

I’m up and secure in my loc on. Watching over a 2 yr old cutover. Got a buck in here I wanna get my eyes on. Plenty of trail camera pics coming through. Goodi luck to everyone out there today. Beautiful morning here in walker co.

I'm gonna try it I usually don't see much when frost is on the ground

I'm watching a south Mississippi WMA road in my turkey lounger. Had one trot off as I was setting up.

Conecuh county. Watching a clearcut, can see a long ways! Maybe one will ease out to catch some sun here shortly! Good luck fellas!

I'm setup in Crenshaw county. I went in blind and set between field and creek. I may not be far enough down the hill but I think it will work.

First sit in a month. A little cool in TN this morning

Long story! Last hunt I walked a long way in and got all sweaty. This time I decided to pack clothes on. I got more sweaty trying to change clothes this time. While doing so I knocked my gun over. I finally get to my stand even though I got turned around thanks to my climbing rope that has reflectors on it. Then I get in my stand to realize everything has been adjusted to suit my dad. I get up and pull my gun up only to see that the rope was dropped through a tree. I get it free in time to bear blowing in the near distance. I also realize my heavy coat has busted the zipper. On the plus side I'm here hunting with my dad and God is good. I've done all of this before most people are even awake.

Im wasting away in a shooting house I rode all day yesterday and didn't see a deer but this stand produces a good buck this week every year so fingers crossed. y'all stay safe and get a biggun!(

In a tree on what will be another beautiful morning. Fresh scape on my way to my tree. Hopefully he will decide to walk by in a bit. Bucks are beginning to get frisky here in Elmore county.

Checking in from St. Clair county. Poster up in a shooting house looking over a green field. Hardwoods in my left and crp on the right.

Had a cow horn slip through at 6:30 hoping a stud will fo the same shortly.

Ole young and dumb tried to get in the ladder with me

Back in the clearcut. Finally broke the ice yesterday with my bow killing a doe.(greenfield).

Good luck

Giving it a rest today but will go at it again tomorrow evening. BE SAFE EVERYONE AND STAY WARM

Got a turkey gobbling his head off in 24 degrees.

Just had a small 8 and a 5 come through and knock horns for a while.

I moved a ground blind into some sage type growth in a 1yr old clear cut. Facing the eastern side of it. Looks great. Just had a spike come by at 50 yds. Had 1 long main beam and thats it. Funny looking at him cause he was acting like a hot shot. I know what was on his mind.

Probably because he's running around poking the other bucks in the eye

On a scouting/squirrel hunting mission this morning in SC. The truck said it was 11 degrees when I got out this morning. Y’all kill a big one and stay safe!

Waiting for my little hunting buddy to come out from the warmth. He’ll venture out for food at some point.

Nothing here so far.

I'm going up after while and hunt this PM. We are suppose to have a good north wind this afternoon and the places I'm wanting to hunt requires one.

4 does just crossed the road.

Checking in. Nice morning.

Nada so far. Only heard one shot. Gues the deer didn’t get the memo to be moving

11 does just came by

Seeing a couple in lowndes county. Haven't heard a gun shot yet?

Nothing for me but my buddy just shot what he says is a good 8 .

I got nothing

Two big sows down. Babies hung around long enough for me to get my son. He killed 5 with two shots

3 bucks, 3 does

On call today so possibly having to work..Decided to just go late morning.. Went outside to crank the truck and it was dead. Battery may be going bad, didnt think anything was left on...

Anyways, now I may just spend the morning working on the nursery(earn some bonus points from the wife) and go this evening.

Good luck to all of you fellas

Been watching a 4,pt,6pt,3 does and a button head. I guess the feids are still to frozen because all they did is graze on brows around the edges of the feild.

Public land in South La. Pretty morning but all I've seen is a yote. Deer and very hard to come by here as the pigs have destroyed everything. Took a little break from trying to get my son his first deer. We had some close calls this week on a small piece of private land. Sure r a lot of geese moving

Ive only heard 3 shots 2 from the same person. Very slow for peak rut.

Two more does at 915. Moving this morning a little bit

Nothing so far this morning and didn’t see anything yesterday afternoon either. Hunting in Bama has just become laughable

o

Maybe it's just you?

Ended up seeing 7... only one was a buck, and he was small

checked my camera from my stand and had one i’d shoot about 30 minutes before I got there

2 more does at 1000. Cant buy a decent buck

Huh I saw 9, one buck.

Finally broke the ice this morning

Number 23 wasn’t so lucky. Just shot a big doe. First deer with the 6.5

What bullet Bob? Congrats on the meat

Great looking buck sloughfoot.

Nice buck, Slough.

Congrats on the doe, Bob.

What time's the BBQ, lefty?

Took an hour break from the morn hunt. Had a fat doe cross the road in front of me on the way out and stop and look at me from 20 yds. Check my camera on the way to set up and had a 4 pt walk behind me an hour ago. Seems like they are moving mid-day.

waiting to get off at 2pm then headed to the woods.

Nosler 140gr BT

Been sitting all day, seen 4 does, 2 bucks. All mid day

Congrats Slough! Great looking buck!

Had a doe on camera in a plot at 9:45 and a doe in another at 11.45.

Doe and fawn came through 30 min ago but unfortunately no boyfriends

Back at it this evening. Same spot as this morning. Wife is in a shooting house watching over cutover morning where we seen big buck Christmas Day. FIL is in his climber on edge pines in some hardwoods. Hopefully one of us gets a shot at a good buck

I'm in a clear cut tripod again. Thought I might a heard some bleating off in the distance

That makes 16 dead hogs in a week for our club

Good job!

In a box watching a few roads. Got good cell service, so maybe they want catch me not looking. Way to go on those pigs.

Just made the eight hundred yard walk to the swamp stand. Perfect wind for this afternoon. Good luck everyone!

Had 2 doe and a young 7 point come by.

Small spike came through. I swear I’ve seen more spikes this year than ever

Congats to the killers!

Dang it! Had a couple of deer up the hill feeding. Side by side comes barreling through and I hear it stop at my truck. I get up and go see who it is. They leave before I can get to them.

No luck for me. Could only go half day.

Seem like this year gonna be like last year. 0 deer for me. So with a freezer going down and losing all my deer meat I had it ain’t my year

Came back to the house to fix an outside faucet. Sitting on the greenfield. Had to text the wife and tell her to feed the cats , because one followed me to the stand

^^ what he said

Damn yotes

Pork Tacos tonight

I bet them leetle peegs is good eating.

2 bucks 2 doe no shooters

Musta been predator night round here. Saw a bobcat and a fox, heard a pack of coyotes about 300yds or so away right at dark. Didnt get to kill nothing dad gum it.

Saw two deer at 3 and then had a doe come running through right at 5pm. Got her stopped with a bleat. Had another deer come trailing her 5 mins later but couldn't see it.

Got a backyard birthday doe. Needed one more doe for the freezer.

Finished product
