My Dad shot this 11 point this afternoon on our land in Cahaba! He came out on one of our big fields after a hot doe! Couldn't be any happier for him! 
Grow, hold, and harvest..

I'm still here MIke, thanks to a good boss! I've hunted all day the last three days, seen one possible shooter but didn't get a good look at him. Passed a two good three year olds that will studs next year. They're chasing here right now.we've seen some good deer the last few days.
So weird.

Slow for me so far,there was a big deer seen crossing here yesterday. I seen a 18+inch 3 yr old cross this morning but not the deer I want. I took a pic of him but he was a cpl hundreds yards away.  May be too far away, just a small 6 come out to feed.
So weird.

Ron that's a sweet looking spot buddy!!! Reminds me of a honey hole I had on River Dale Hunting Club. I had two small 6 pts come by within bow range this afternoon. That one little dude got my blood to pumping. I could hear a deer walking in some thick stuff off to my right when I hear burrrrup. I hit the can call and here he comes little 6 pt. Walked right under my tree.

I'm back in my honey hole this morning. I've seen one doe so far. It's been slow this morning. I don't have much confidence in this spot since I scented the area up looking for my deer last week. We'll see what happens but I'll be very surprised if a mature buck comes through here.

Just had a buck chase some does through the creek drain I'm sitting on. Did not get a good look at him. From what I saw was big bodied deer with what looked to be a decent rack.

Well guy's I decided to give it another few days before I tossed in the towel this year. I had a goal to kill my best Bama bow buck this year and it finally worked out. I was blessed with this mature buck Wednesday morning. He was being a smart son of gun. I was set up on the edge of a hardwood drain and some planted pines. He came slipping through the young pine plantation scent checking all the trails leading into the hardwood drain I was hunting. I just so happened to have a nice little entrance trail to my stand cut through the pines. I turn to see his rack sticking out behind the briars which puts his horns center of my entrance trail. I know he's a shooter right away so I stand up and grab my bow. I know he is around 25 yards so I set the HHA sight for the correct yardage. By the time I get drawn on him he is now quartering away. I settle the pin just in front of his right hind quarter with plans so send my arrow through the boiler room. I touch the release and at the sound he lunges forward causing the arrow to hit him in the hind quarter. I got excellent penetration as the arrow passed through the ham and out the bottom of his belly. The TI rage cut a massive hole and the blood trail was big enough a blind man could follow it. However, I was still concerned with the shot so I elected to recover him this morning. I know it was a lot of time but after losing one last week I did not want to push this deer what's so ever. I am not proud of the shot and have learned a valuable lesson the past few weeks while bow hunting late season Bama deer. Shots you would normally make with no problem don't work on these deer. They are as fast as grease lighting and any unnatural sound literally makes them do some Matrix type evasive maneuvers. In closing I would like to say thank you "God" for blessing me with an AWESOME season!!! Also I thank you all that have followed along on my thread the last few weeks. I truly enjoyed bringing you guy's live updates. I hope to share my hunts with you all next season. Now here are the pics...enjoy!!
