Fort Knox or bust! I’m headed out tonight after my daughters basketball game. This’ll be my best (and probably last) chancecto kill a good buck in KY this season. Tomorrow the weather will be terrible - no other way to put it. Sunday it’ll be just the opposite. Here’s to hoping the good Lord sends one my way!

Good luck to all of you this weekend. Sure would be nice if 3-5 of us were to kill some racked bucks in the next couple days.

Good luck claims

Good luck Claims. It’s looking like I may get to go a time or two this weekend or early next week. Haven’t had the time to do much scouting, maybe I’ll get lucky. Plenty of season left. I should be good for a nice buck at some point this year.

I am back in louisiana and hit two Dr. Appts tomorrow. Hopefully I'll get cleared to go back to work and everything. My stepdad and I are supposed to leave thanksgiving day to head to his buddies place in Oklahoma but unless something changes or I make a 180 i may not be going.

Fort Knox was a bust for me. I saw a bunch of deer, including one 150"+ stud, but he was wide open after a doe, 125 yards away through the woods, and across a big creek in a different hunting area than what I was in. I may head back up there in December, and again I may be done with KY for the year. Just have to wait and see on that.

I got another doe but that doesn’t help us. I have pictures of some STUDS, hoping I get a chance at them this year. Trying to hunt that area smart

Another morning hunt and no deer sighted. That brings my total to 0 for deer seen while hunting. Did see 4 does on the road side, closest ive ever come to getting out the truck and shooting one.

Haha dang auwrestler, keep paying your dues and it’ll pay off. Time in the stand beats time at work or school any day. I saw 3 this past Sunday morning, nothing good enough to shoot, and haven’t been yet this week. Hoping to get out there soon, I’ve killed most of my bucks the first two weeks of gun season or either in January. And i don’t feel like waiting til January!

Got on board today with a doe. She weighed exactly 100 lbs. field dressed.

Congrats claims. I am in Oklahoma and will be here hunting through sun. Hopefully I'm lucky enough to put one on the ground. We were looking at some trailcam pics tonight and all I can say is wow. This friend of my stepdad has been on his a game for managing deer. He s got several deer 170+ and a few truck loads of 130+ deer. Bad thing is, unless it's a cull, bucks have to be 150 or better and 5.5 yrs old. He s got a few culls that are in the upper 140s that I would love to shoot. He told us to shoot whatever made us happy within his guidelines but it seems he has definitely been pushing culls. I'm just thankful I'm here and able to hunt. If it's meant for me to kill one I will and if not I won't. He does have a 10 that I would die to kill. It's a 5.5 yr old deer thst is probably mid 170s and perfectly symmetrical with 12-13in g2s, 10-11in g3s, prolly 8in g4s, and 7-8in browtines. Bucks prolly close to 20in wide and has 24-26in main beams. Decently heavy but not super massive. All in all a deer I would love to kill.

Congrats Claims.

Good job claims! Cool pic

Congrats Claims. I took a doe out Saturday afternoon. Anyone post a pic for me in the points thread? If so, PM me your number.

Saw Claybird got a doe, congrats

Thanks AUwrestler. Special thanks to Claims for posting for me.

Well fella’s, I totally struck out in Kentucky this season. Five trips up there, only saw one racked buck (he was a good one for sure) but he didn’t give me the extra three steps I needed to let the Matthews eat... After that I never had a racked buck in my sights. Sucks, but that’s hunting. I don’t really expect much between now and MLK day, but who knows - that’s why it’s called hunting, right?!?

Sorry to hear Claims, ill deer hunt if i get an afternoon, but my mornings wull be 9n the water. Gotta get more retrieves for my pup.

Bummer claims!

I'm still seeing more deer than ever. Have plenty of great bucks on camera, just gotta see them in the daylight now.

My season is pretty much over. Unless ingst an invite from a buddy here in Louisiana I'm done. The place I hunted in Oklahoma had some nice deer just wouldn't cooperate in daylight. Did see a 140ish in 10pt thst was 2.5 and couldn't shoot him. Only other shooter I saw was the art am I hunted and I just caught glimpses of him running a doe.
