First sit of the season

Great morning besides the East wind.
Bumped one coming in.

Hardwoods over looking a old logging road. Killed a doe here Friday. Hoping for same luck today

Here with my boy trying to get his first with a bow. Just missed a pig

On a crossing route. Nice morning. Had a doe ease by behind me right at daylight.

Just had 2 small does come by

Wating on a oak flat

In a tree in Tennessee. Had deer around me before daylight.

Sitting on a road bed on choccoloca wma with scrapes and red oaks dropping. Turkey was gobbling good this morning. He must have his seasons backwards

Sitting on a pinch point where a fence row and natural water barrier meet.

Another Tennessee doe on the ground.

Wind has been blowing in every direction for me since before daylight.

Dead here this morning

Where are you bojo?
Looks real fall there.

Congratulations Deerhunter, beautiful spot Bojo!!

Stephen drew first blood at 9:45 on a spike in velvet. Gonna be heading back in with the dog in a hr.

Present in shelby co for the first sit if the season. Overlooking deep dark green field of clover, turnips and oats. And maybe some corn here and there.

Fixing to head back in. Hunting a creek crossing this afternoon. Looking for a big nanny for the freezer. A big old buck would of course serve the purpose as well.

In a hardwood flat surrounded by eight big white oaks. Tons of acorn pieces and crap under them. Stuck a coyote right after I got settled in. On doe patrol today, first big nanny that comes to eat is getting ventilated.

Just realized I left my release at the house...grrrr

The only thing worse than that is leaving ur toilet paper at the house !

^^^....and that’s why you should always carry a spare release in your pack.

Yep. Oh well, I have my trusty pocket knife. I'm going to see if I can fashion one out of a belt loop, a shoe string and a piece of deer jerky.

Back on a food plot with my son

I'm in Illinois. Just a little earlier than I like to be though.

Behind the house hunting a food plot. Ran two deer walking in a few minutes ago

Just had 3 bucks come by. Started to shoot a big 6 but I don’t think he was as big as I was trying to make him look

Behind my girlfriends house for the first time. Thought there was just a handful of deer around here but trail cam and sign say otherwise.

Had two does feed through at about 100yds. I wish one would come on up here and get some of these big white oak acorns

Doe down in shelby co. My first bow kill in probably 10 years. Clean pass thru. Went 60 yards or so.

Good for you catfish - way to go

Congrats on the kills everyone

I did that once. Went with fingers not knowing any better. Gut shot a nice doe on opening day. Since that day I buckle my release to my bow as soon as I case it or earlier. It’s always connected to my bow.

Find it?

Haven't been able to go yet. Had planned on doing Saturday but power went out at some point Friday night and messed up my alarm clock

Missed a fat doe at 18yds. How the heck do you smoke a coyote walking at 35 and then miss a deer standing still at 18?!?!?

Buck fever

Yes and no. He was still alive walked up on him with the dog and Stephen was 30 yds behind. No backup shot but he was still very lively.

Not ideal, but still a win win situation there. Maybe you used the wrong pin. Good excuse!!

Ended up seeing 7. One fawn was trying to find its momma. Bleating all around the greenfield

Hope the fawn does find momma

Momma probably got an arrow

Took the 12 year old with his crossbow today. Had a little 4 point walk out at 25 yards and surprisingly he gave it a pass although he has never killed one with the crossbow -I figured it out later - he remembered me saying that he had to clean whatever he killed this year and he decided it wouldn't be enough sausage to fool with. I laughed all the way home at him.
