Late, buy maybe an alternate. Wade Gummersheimer wgumz 39 Illinois October 1-January 15ish

Thanks Pointer for the assistance with posting those pictures. We have our 2nd season starting Thursday with snow on Friday. Love it. Stay safe and enjoy. Wade

Thanks dogs. I will hopefully tonight when I get home from work. Thanks again, Wade

Thanks South GA. Good luck this weekend.

Landed a 12 point on Sunday afternoon. Was a cold weekend and very few deer here. I am still having trouble posting photos in the photo contest. I couldn't do it for the doe and still can't with this buck. 17 points for the team is too many not to get posted. I will try and get these posted. I was seeing this guy for a couple weeks on the trail cam and figured he found his way in the back of someone else's truck. Anyway, keep up the good work, Happy Thanksgiving, and stay safe. I was almost a statistic 2 weeks ago when my strap broke on my hang on stand. Wade

Only downfall was my family was out of town, so I had to do all the pics myself. The photo with the deer isn't the best, but all I could do trying to hold the deer up and take a self-photo. Hopefully it works. Wade

Some nice looking deer guys. I was out last night and ended my drought of never killing a deer with a bow. Shot a nice doe last night. I have the pics on my phone, however, I am not sure how to enter the pics to the board. Can anyone assist so we can add another 5 points? PM me with any assistance. I will be heading back out tomorrow morning and evening. Wade

Sorry I haven't been on in a little while. I have been out, been seeing deer in the evening, but just does. Good news is each time I am seeing something. Just not too close. Majority of the bucks I have been seeing is during the night with the camera. I am hoping since the crops are down that they will change their pattern along with rut starting soon, hopefully. Looks like everyone is doing well, seeing deer and making great shots, MNhunterr, lol. Good luck and may the big boy show up close for ya. Wade

Glad they came out with no problems. You will be a little sore for a day or two. Good luck this weekend.

Sorry guys, been gone for a week on business. Now on vacation until middle of next week. I got out this morning, had a couple does about 40 yards, but that was it. Been out three times since the season, but hopefully I will be out more this week. I am on page 3 of catching up on posts, so if anyone bagged one, congratulations. Good luck to all. Wade

Like I mentioned, I checked the trail camera. A lot of deer passing through this small section behind my house. Always to seems to look this way around September here. Only major difference is all the pictures are either in the morning with the sun up or the evening with plenty of shooting light. Last year, all the pictures were overnight, and I could never seem to see anything moving during gun season. Good luck to all whose season has already started. Wade

And by the way, any name is good for me. Rut crazed has a good ring to it. Wade

Gents, I am here and checking in. I am sorry. Bow season starts for me here in Illinois on October 1. I was out shooting the bow this evening and remembered I didn't check in. My apologies. I have everything set up and just pulled a camera this evening from behind my house. I have two stands set up there and they have been moving around by both. Wade

I am still here. Just checking in and reading up on the posts. I have been out, just nothing to report. Been seeing deer, either too far or in too much brush. Second firearms season starts tomorrow, so hopefully i will at least throw on 5 points for the team. Moved my stand after 1st season, and have been seeing deer closer, so hopefullly this will help out. Good luck to all and keep up the good work. Be safe. Wade
