Sounds like you're in for a good trip. Don't forget to call to them! Grunt, snort wheeze, something! I've tried it all... they'll stop and look but then continue on. Hard to compete with the real thing. Been fun so far can only pray the rest of the trip is like this

Took a quick lunch and hung a set where I saw one big buck this morning at daylight. Had to back out of my morning spot because of the wind, as bad as I want to try to kill one of those 2 shooters I am leaving it alone until the wind switches Tuesday. In the mean time I am setup on this other place about 3 miles away that is about a 30 acre wood lot that is surrounded by cut corn on all sides. Walked in blind but found huge rubs and mud trails and climbed a tree.

Just watched 2 more shooters chasing does. Wish they'd come closer. Had a little 8 come right underneath me.

Went back to place I was at yesterday evening and it's still hot. Got one hot doe in here and she must be a beauty queen. I have 2 shooters trailing her one being one being a 9 point that will probably touch 150 and thenot an 8 point that makes him look like a basket rack. I actually got down and moved stands closer to a field they've been in twice now so hopefully they'll come back out and work they have been

Man what an afternoon!!! My buddy killed his first deer with a bow and it's a huge 8. He killed it at 330, and I killed my 10 an hour later not 200 yards away. I'll give a better story later Here is mine, he is an old busted 6 million pound buck     This is my buddis deer, he is the big 8 I saw this morning.

This morning i went and hunted a corner of a huge cornfield.I saw 4 bucks dogging a doe and one was this huge 8 point. They followed the doe on into the woods, so I went ahead left my stand in the tree. I saw a bunch of bucks chasing does in the same field so I knew this afternoon was gnna be hot. I told my friend to come hunt this other farm with me. So he did and I showed him where I found a ton of sign and itd be worth it to try it out. 330 my phone rings and he is going nuts. This was his first deer with a bow. Well I stay in my stand because he was only a few hundred yards away and next thing I know here comes a 6 point. 5 minutes later a spike. I took a pictures and told my buddies I needed a biggun to do this too, not 10 minutes later this buck walk right by at 20 yards. I drilled him, he was slightly quartering to me so I shot just abover shoulder and the killzone tore him up. Buck ran 50 yards and crashed.we doubled up within an hour and both deer died within 100 yards of each other
Both deer weighed right at 250 lbs dressed

Congrats. Are you a fan of those Killzones now? big fan of them, this is my 2nd season using them and not one deer has made it past 50 yards. This arrow hit the off shoulder and didn't damage the BH at all. Thanks fellas it was a blast and something I think every hunter should experience. I honestly wasn't ready to see that much chasing by big deer in the wide open. Definitely a blessing from the Good Lord!
