Shot another doe this morning but the coyotes got to her before I could. I only waited an hour because I knew the shot was good, but they'd already tore up the hams and had her guts strewn everywhere. A buddy of mine killed a 195 inch non-typical Saturday. He hunts a lease couple miles from me.

No...they were just scared that we would run away with it so someone tried to get rid of our thread!

Apparently it had been deleted somehow and they reinstated it. Hoosierhunter bumped it to the top, but before it was nowhere to be seen.

This thread was not at the bottom. Someone must have reinstated it?

Is there something wrong with my computer? I can't find Team 2's thread? There's a deleted thread that says "Unapproved" made by "Guest'"?

Had deer on us literally the whole sit last night. There were two yearlings and a doe feeding on acorns when we walked in. We squatted down behind a tree and Chase used my summit as a gun rest. We sat there for 30 minutes without the deer getting closer. A young 8 point jumped the fence and chased them off. We used that opportunity to get in our stands. Once Chase had climbed into his hang-on, I sat up my summit and had just gotten situated when the buck ran the deer back into the oak flat. Chase really wanted to shoot a buck, but they never got closer than 80 yards and never offered a clean shot. A doe and button buck jumped the fence behind us and the button proceeded to bed down about 20 yards directly behind Chase. After about ten minutes or so, the doe started feeding away towards Chase so the button finally got up. Chase tried to get on the doe as she walked by but couldn't find her in the scope(too close). So he settled on the button buck and dropped him in his tracks at 25 yards. Blew out both shoulders. He was pumped! The doe ran behind us and then made her way back to within 2 yards of my tree. I had drawn back on her, but she was way too close for me to take the shot. I would have hit my stand with my bottom cam. Anyway, we were done with the evenings hunt in about 2 hours. Chase never once played his Nintendo DS! Which was a miracle because that is the only thing that keeps him quiet and still! Next weekend is our Blackpowder opener, but I'll be in the tree with my bow. I did manage to see a shooter buck chasing a doe Sunday morning when Chase slept in but he wouldn't stop in my shooting lane. Had him at 20 yards but only had a small window. Wouldn't you know the doe stopped perfect but the buck had other ideas. A small 8 did hop out in front of me at 20 yards and stood for 5 minutes. I think he was looking for the big un and his doe. I doubt she was hot, but they got the rut on their mind at least. Next weekend should be good.

Congrats SS! This weekend is youth weekend so I've been taking my son, Chase. He doesn't like hunting mornings so I've been able to hunt those by myself but with no luck. Chase has missed a button buck and an 8 point with his Barnett crossbow. Would love for him to have harvested one of the two, but I love the fact that he's getting the experience so early. We're breaking out the .243 tomorrow for his last hunt.

This is youth weekend coming up in Oklahoma so I'll be trying to get my son on his first crossbow kill. Taking off work Friday to take him. If he gets one early, maybe I can do some solo hunting.

The two bucks that came by yesterday.

Wind was about 20 mph this evening but we stayed on stand for 4 hours. I had a small 8 and a small 6 right under my stand. Nothing big enough to shoot just yet.

I've got a 3 day weekend coming up. If I can get something close to 120 inches to walk by, I'll upgrade. Weather calling for rain and warm weather.

Honestly, I'm fine with them losing. I just hate that it happened to Kershaw. He is without a doubt, in my opinion, the best pitcher in the game and he seems to be genuine as well.

Huge Dodgers fan for the past 30 years. Have always liked the Cards but I'm becoming like you Mudrunner. Can't stand them. Can't stand Molina. But I really hate the Giants, so if the Cards beat us, I'll be rooting for them unless the Nats pull off the comeback.

Pics of our weekend double. I'm on the right.

Shot two does today. One this morning and one this evening. Took a friend of mine that had never bowhunted before and he also got a doe. We were set up about 120 yards from each other and saw each others shots and saw each others deer pile up! Great evening!

Passed up a young 8 point and spike tonight. Both within 40 yards. Going back in the morning. Temps supposed to be in the low 40's. Should see some movement.

Plan on getting in the stand this evening for my first hunt of the year. I've got 5 sits this weekend. Hope to at least get a doe on the board.

Mine shows I lost? Not sure why. I've still got the most points though! LOL

View from my treestand last night. Snuck in for an evening sit. Will be hard at it this weekend.

This might be the week I take my first loss. Two main guys in bye week and my replacements aren't that good.

Congrats Zizzer! I've got 7 more days before I can help y'all out.

Email it to me and I'll give it a try tomorrow. [email protected]
