10/17 LFTT

It’s a cold one this morning.

Good luck to you and everyone. Post those pics

Great morning to be in the woods! First sit of the year for me and first time ever climbing with tree gaffs in the dark. All I can say is I’m glad to be standing on my platform now lol.

Live from work, good luck

Nice morning at a cool 45* here and the woods are very quiet.

First hunt for me. Pretty morning. Wind it swirling where I’m is.

Kill a biggun guys

First one for me in too

Checking in from Baldwin county swamp bottom. Feels great to be back in the woods!

I was too lazy to go this morning. Good luck to everyone.

I’m back in the white oaks again. I had a spike feed under me about 6:45

In the tree in Blount county big boy was here at 330 am

In a tree in Tennessee.

Just got my first blow job of the year, ah the sounds of deer season...

I did too...so I stuck it 😃 tad back but I don't think he'll go far

One doe cruised by so far.

Man what a morning. Cold, calm, perfect. Too bad I'm working. Knock em down y'all they don't make every October morning like this one

My big ones running buddy fed through 10 mins ago but he didn’t show with him

Cold? It was 42 here this morning. Finally getting short sleeve weather.

Seen a Quailman special so far.

Five does so far here

Eyes on a 6pt at the top of the hill. Maybe he’ll work his way down

Little spike came thru on a mission. Had a doe and a 6pt hang around for about 30 min. Waiting on Ol big boy to show.

Of my parents new property for the first time. Couldn't draw on the first 2 does.

They’re movin on wheeler this morning, unfortunately they’re moving 15 yards out of range.

Found him..I'd normally let him go but my freezer needs filling

2 fawns and a doe fed past.

Bobcat just saw me reach for my bow as I noticed him. He backed out, circled me and left.

Congrats on the kill! I didn't get my sorry butt out of bed this morning, good luck everybody. I will be after em this afternoon.

Congrats waiting on one to show here

He should do the job. Congratulations on a fine deer.

With a buddy in Walker County this morning. Judging by the pictures on my camera last night, I think it’ll be later in the morning before it gets good.

Congratulations jb20

Congrats JB. Being at work this morning sucks, y'all wear em out.

Nice kill. I rolled my ankle on the way in this morning. I’m sure I won’t see a thing after that crash I took. Dropped my bow and everything. Foot is throbbing but I’m gona hang in here for a little while.

Congrats JB nothing wrong with filling that freezer.

Congrats on the kill

You done moved from early this morning? Or just a different direction?
I used to enjoy a little ground hunting with a bow. I used to enjoy hunting with a bow, before my shoulders quit on me. 😕

Nothing this morning, think it’ll be a better afternoon?

6 does just fed through out of range

Doe down in Tennessee. Had a young 8 around me fir over an hour. Finally got a doe in range.

Just had a 3 1/2 year old 9 point at 15 yards

Couldn't get a shot???

I had a doe and fawn cruise by me (out of range) just before 9:00...daylight activity for the last week (according to my cameras and a few hunts) has been very minimal here

Five does, two four points, and a basket rack six was my grand total this morning. The bucks came in around 9

Same spot. The pic was just really zoomed in. Saw about a dozen does and that buck continued over the crest of the hill.

I had just got into bow hunting around 2011 but hurt my shoulder in 2013 so I backed off it for the most part. It’s gotten healed enough that I was confident enough to pick up a new bow and sold the crossbow.

I used to be all about tree stands but a ground setup is 2x lighter. I bought a cheapo 40$ Ghillie thing from amazon, or I just rig alittle camo netting between two fiberglass poles. I just kick back in my turkey lounger and wait.

Swing and a miss for me this morning. Shot right under a doe

Congrats jb....

Y’all wear em out! Stuck out here at work wishing I was there. Seen a fine buck out here this morning while working laughing at me the whole time I’m sure.

First sit of the year. On a ladder on the edge of an open oak bottom and thick mixed woods

I’m bow hunting Portland landing SOA, you know, your favorite place. They have to be 4.5 to be killed here..

Last night I saw over 15 racked bucks, with 5 being shooters on a big clover field.. none came within range of course..

That’s about 3x what I find in a whole season.

It was crazy how many bucks were out there..

I moved my stand to where they were at last night, but of course the wind is acting crazy..

Saw zero this morning, hurricane Sally did a number on our oaks knocking the acorns down early. I’m on a greenfield this afternoon

Just had a 6 pt come within range. No brows, so no 8 (club rule). Come on legal Deer!

I'm back in the same tree as yesterday. Anything with horns is going down. Even if it's a quailman special!

Went with a buddy to his place this morning. Saw six out of a stand I helped him Find a place for on a ridge about a month ago. Ate some fine BBQ and banana pudding. Then helped him cut a place in a fence row and put a tripod in it, We saw a few deer while doing that.

Congrats to the killas!

Holy crap these skeeters are bad!

Just shot a doe at 40 yards.. she was hit hard with ole slick trick

Pulled a camera and I knew I should have went yesterday afternoon... big tall 10pt shows up at 5:36. Moral of the story is hunt every chance you get. Hope I see him.

Dang!! Hope you get him

That sounds like my luck..

Gut shot a cowhorn and wasn't able to find him tonight. Feels terrible. Anyone know a tracker in arley al?

Congrats.. first blood for our team!

Wife got her first bow kill this morning. Big doe at yards. First hunt of the year and first time carrying the Xbow. She tore ligaments in her ankle last Monday. So she is on crutches and has a boot on. We wrapped the boot in a garbage bag to keep it dry and she hobbled in and helped trail it. Only her second deer ever.

Passed up more shots on a few does this afternoon. Seen a fawn still nursing so I’ll probably hold off on bagging one til the first of the year.

No bucks to be seen this afternoon.

Holy crap. I had a nice one come out on me at last light (6:35) and think the shot was good! He ran and I backed out, It’s been a hour. I’m bout to go track

Awesome, good luck!

Good luck rack hunter! Congrats on all the kills. I saw a spike and that was it...just couldn't make myself put a arrow through him.

Good job hope you find him!!!!!

Giteem

I stuck a nice 8 point and he went into the thickest crap on the club .....gonna go back in the morning with some help and see if we can find him. I shot him right below the neck straight on, the arrow buried about 10 inches deep, when he turned into the woods the arrow came out. No blood trail, so I am thinking he may be filling the chest cavity .....hopefully

I hope so too good luck!!

Found him! Guys I’ve been hunting about 22 years and killed some nice ones but I’ve outdid myself this evening . A 10 point has always eluded me, but I can check that off my bucket list now. Still riding a adrenaline high! Shot him at 25 yards at 6:30 this evening. Thank you lord

Nice buck Rackhunter

Found a 130 plus with my dogs this evening. Over 24 hours old. I dont know how to post pics on here or I would

Great buck

Nicks one rack hunter, congrats.

Nice

Great deer Rackhunter!! Super bow kill

Congrats

Thanks, I’m not going to claim bowkill because I took it with a crossbow. But regardless I’ll take him!

Nice deer - way to go Rackhunter - Congrats

10 point has eluded me also - I clicked on nice one last year - muzzleloader did not go off

Congrats on the kills guys! I redeemed my miss yesterday evening and smoked a doe this afternoon at 34 yds! Heard her crash behind me bout 60 yds from my tree

Congrats Rackhunter.

Stuck a monster yesterday before dark. Watched him carry my arrow away. Looking this morning and may need a dog. Haven't got any responses. Any unlisted dogs near pleasant grove? Jefferson county

Congrats rackhunter
