This screwed up Jackson Co. season, I'm just glad to shoot something!

So far, four does. I hunt in Fl and in Covington Co. so I still have some time.

Having a great season. My son got his first buck. I had 40 deer under me this year. A basket 8, a 7, three 6's and four spikes, only shot gun once(coyote). I beat them so many days, success is not always what you kill, Being able to watch sun rise and set while in a tree is sometime priceless.

4 for me one 5 pt one for my wife and my sons first. Seen a pile and let a few legal deer walk. Been a great season even though I didn't kill a stud.
Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!

Big horse collar. The only real nice deer we have seen was yesterday when we were cooking pork chops.
I've put in about 70 hours of hunting and have seen one spike and a small racked buck, that I couldn't see the rack very well.
I'd bet money that the people around us have a corner on lots of the does, feeding corn. No proof, however.

This is my first season to hunt. I have always wanted to hunt but do to playing college baseball and school itself it was hard to start up a new hobby. My buddies who have taken me hunting this year believe i am so sort of good luck charm. Ive been on roughly 15 hunts this season, and my friend or i have seen action 13 of the 15 hunts. I have had more than a blast i've killed two Doe's and a basket 8 point for my first buck. I got the 8 Point camo skull mounted. I had a big debate to shoulder mount but the season was still young and i knew if i mounted him then i couldn't afford another mount this season. My buddy and his son took me 4 times to there club in Fayette County and of the for times He killed a 140 class 8 point, his son killed a nice 8 point, and that's where I killed the basket 8. Id like to thank Aldeer.com for the website, i appreciate everyone who gets on and tells their stories. I read almost all the comments and i believe it has helped me be a better hunter.

3 bucks, 1 coyote, 1 bobcat and 191 hogs.
I have seen a lot of game.
BUT, I have had to hunt a lot harder in different places than years past to do so.

All in all I was pretty blessed this season. This was my first season of hunting hard after not being able to for several years. I saw a lot of deer and let quite a few walk. I had to hunt public land all over Marshall, Madison, and Jackson counties and got to pull the trigger three times - all of which connected. I got a nice 12 pointer on 12-22. I haven't had him officially scored yet but all estimates have been around 150" - give or take a few. As soon as I get him back from the taxidermist I plan to have him officially scored. Later on in December I dropped a coyote. A couple of weeks ago I shot a mature 6 ptr - at least mature enough for TVA land  Interestingly enough everything I put down was off TVA property in Marshall county. Now it's time to find a club!

Hunted 6 times. 3 times with 4 year old little girl, 3 times without. Saw 13 bucks and a bunch of does. This year is the least I've ever hunted...but I probably enjoyed the times I went the most of any year I've had. Is fun watching my little girl be so fascinated with Mother Nature....
Killed 1 buck and about 6 propane bottles.....

8 point (my personal best inches wise) and doe...but I'm more proud of guiding my 9 year old cousin to a 5 point (would've thought it was a 150") and assisted the most deserving young man I know to his first racked buck....been slow overall but it's been fun and I've enjoyed my time in the woods...hoping to get out Thursday and/or Friday...

Didn't get to hunt much, only saw 1 deer. Looked at it through the binoculars and it was just to dark to tell what it was so never picked up the boom stick.
