LFTT 1/8

I’m beat down but the time is right, should be a good weekend with this front moving through and the colder weather. Hope to catch a chase, I think tomorrow will be the day but I’m off so here we go. Gonna start near a green field surrounded by a thicket between two creeks by the river. Good luck fellas!

I’m here and tired. Sitting in a select cut ridge near a greenfield and bedding area.

In a tripod. Cold and damp here with a pretty stiff wind.

Sitting on a powerline hoping to catch one chasing does

Present in the fog and drizzle, I can’t see 50 yards

Y’all hang tough.It’s about to get good in a lot of places.February is the time to recoup

Add sleet and snow to cold, damp and windy

Temps seem to be dropping, They are moving, just had a doe ease Through with a spike right behind her. Had another doe cross the roadbed with nothing behind her yet.

This wind is brutal blowing right in my face

They’re moving. Sit tight boys.

Present in Winston county. 19 turkeys in the field.

Y’all get after em - I’ll hunt through y’all today - hope i can get one of my kids to let me be a guide this weekend. (Not being able to manipulate a rifle because of an injury really sucks during January!)

According to my Spypoint, two does at my timed feeder at 7:00

I'm pulling for you guys from the office today!

I'll be after them tomorrow afternoon.

They should be feeding today, I’m gonna get out tomorrow.

That's awesome!

Good luck fellas. I'll be out in the woods this weekend.

Apparently hot hands have a shelf life.

I'm in the office and got some errands to do today. Gonna miss this weekend but after this, I'm gonna spend every second I can in the woods.

Dr. B

Dang, that sucks Joe

Yep they do

Huh. Never knew that. Learned something today

I finally saw a 4 year old buck this morning and am tickled to death to have him on the ground!!! This has been a tough, tough season for me (as far as seeing an older buck)...He’s a 144 lb. “run down/poor as a snake” 9 point (broken brow on the right side) with an 18” inside spread

Thank you, Lord, thank you!!!

By the way, .243 just isn’t a big enough round

I’m glad my freezing hands could be of service

Congrats on the buck.
I learned about the hot hands the hard way. Northeast Missouri on a 21 degree day with 18 mph winds.

Yesterday in a group text, one of the guys told us Hollins WMA was starting a gun hunt today. I knew they were hunting this weekend, but it did surprise me that it was starting on Friday instead of Saturday (however, another local WMA has been doing Fri-Sun all season, so it didn't sound false). So I got everything ready to go, even set an alarm (it's about an hour drive from my house). Right at bedtime last night something told me to double check it though, and glad I did, doesn't start till tomorrow


That would've been real cute! LOL

dang, broke that brow off. Would've been a nice 10. Great buck, congrats!

Congrats AU

GOOD DEER! That's a solid one. Nice job on dropping him.

Dang nice buck, AU!! Congrats

Congrats AU!

Good buck.

One of these days i'm gonna get me a chocolate horned deer.

Nice Deer AUdeerhunter. What bullet are you shooting out of the 243?

Heck Yea - congrats AU deer hunter - very fine deer - nice chocolate rack

100 grain Core-Lokts...been shooting them for almost 25 years and have always had great success with them (knock on wood!)

Nice one AU ! Love those dark horns !

Actually I think hollins is sat,sun mon

Good deer!
This is one of the best days for hunting we’ve had all season. Basically in the 30’s all day is deadly if you can hang.
Too bad work gets in the way....

I’m with ya globe. Working

Awite boys no dice this morning fixing to get back in there after one they gotta eat at some point. wind is swirling here so I'm goin to the shooting house

Great buck AU! I’ve had a chocolate horn one or two. Love those suckers!

In the redneck on a powerline. Hoping one steps across

In the wood box with the heater on. The boys in the holler in a treestand, poor thing.

3 long beards in Selma so far.

Back in my ladder stand on a greenfield behind the house. Got pics of a stud in here Wednesday morning @ 6:30. Several scrapes around the field, maybe he'll come check them before dark.

Congrats au, I slipped out of work early, got the recurve with me

Sure is nice in this muddy blind, now I just need the deer to cooperate.

One so far. Seen quite a few fresh scrapes walking in.

Brrrrrr.

Littlw to no movement today via cams. Early in the week it was on. Need some sunshine

I’m in a muddy also. What is this wind they are talking about?

Last minute sit by the house

Should’ve gone this morning. Giant 6 that I’ve never seen came by my stand at 630 then again at 10. I’ll be there tomorrow!!

I’d take sandwiches if I could have gone today...
Or tomorrow! 8-1:00 will kill a deer in this weather
Sleep in a little if you have to, but stay later.

I think I may have heard it a few times Only saw a few does, came out late. Pretty slow.

Tomorrow morning should be good

Sure hope so. Been skunked a lot here lately in Marion County. Planning on spending the full day in the woods tomorrow.

Nice buck audeerhunter. Congrats. Got a glimpse of a nice buck this evening. High hopes for tomorrow.

I hope morning is good, I’m going

Ended up seeing 4 right at dark. Gonna be in Jackson county at daylight in the morning.

It was quite windy in the tripod and saw no deer. Toes got a little cold around 5. Face is burning now and hopefully it will die down in the morning.

Congrats AU!!

Nice buck AU!

Thanks, everyone!!
