Hunting Bankhead National Forest this morning. Set up in a bottom on some rained out scrapes. White Oaks putting the acorns off really good. Only bad thing is the wind swirls in bottoms. Maybe the thermals will help me out. Good luck y'all.

Well on the walk in I didn't see any tracks on our roads so maybe they didn't move much last night....maybe they are hungry this morning in the light sprinkle
Let them walk ...and grow them big

I'm in Illinois listening to turkeys gobble. Had a big buck push 3 does by at 15 yds this morning before daylight, just too dark to shoot! Then had a different buck cruise thru the field bout 45 mins ago, he was a really good 8 pt. never got under 100 yds. 3 does have walked right under me within the last hour. Hope a big buck follows them. We got pics of a typical 11 point & a stud 8, with a rack that goes straight up. Good luck men.

Back in the stand in Alabama with nacho mini this afternoon hoping something will come sneaking by!

Total washout here. We picked up an inch of rain over night and it looks like we may pick up another one this evening. This is great weather for growing food plots but it has sucked so far for hunting. The opening weekend of the north zone was about the best hunting weather we've had. Where are some dang temps down into the 30's or low 40's? Forecast looks like temps back into the low 80's next week.

Yeah. Been warmer than usual. Opening weekend was awesome but has been terrible since. I ended up just scouting a little and checking cameras today.

No trucks at pull offs all the way through to where I was going this afternoon and someone parked where I intended to go. Oh well, that's public land.

Hunting Bankhead National Forest again this afternoon. Still waiting for big daddy to slip up and hit these scrapes or rubs. He probably thinks the woods are on fire, because I smell like a camp fire. On purpose that is. Good luck and stay dry.

I'm present but I don't know why in the hell I'm in this stand I'm in. The wind keeps switching on me. Think I may move.

Oh well, went to another spot I've been hunting and walked up on 2 or 3 deer already there. Got blew at before climbing so didn't even bother. It wasn't meant to be today. Now I'm home.

Got a doe and 2 fawns in the plot grazing at 60 yards. No spots on the 2 young deer. At what point do you guys cut off on shooting a doe with fawns?

At what point do you guys cut off on shooting a doe with fawns? I have always been told if they don't have spots they are old enough to live on their own.

After that it just becomes a personal choice. If the young still seem dependent upon mom, I'll let them all walk so that they can learn from her. If they're just with her, that mom can die lol.

Spots or no spots, if fawn-aged deer are following a doe, I won't shoot the doe.

Man there are 5 bucks in front of me, 3 young bucks, a very old 6 I've seen for years, probably 7 y/o and 1 biiiiiig buck. I got a longbow and they're about 200 yards away. Light is dying quick and it just started pouring. I think I may be SOL.

Had a break in the rain so I hopped in a stand for the last hour. Nothing moving. Just ended up with a wet arse. Water proof New Balance?
