I agree Ruth. He will be back looking for a hot doe. Put some doe gel out and walk around a bit to your shooting lane and then from the field to your stand. If you think he is the dominate buck in your area I would try a snort wheeze next time he is just out of range and will not come to a grunt. Good Luck

Keep pluggin away MUD. I am sure it is a combo of the weather and the corn. Hopefully it gets cooler soon.

They are a lot better than last year. Just wait a couple years when Rich gets his guys that he recruited in there that are not freshmen. You are so quick to judge. You have to be patient when changing a program all around like he did. One of the best coaches in the country just needs a little time. Heyward needs to catch Forcier before he can "break him in two". I am gonna laugh when Forcier makes a move on him making him leave his jock strap on the field. Don't count your chickens before they hatch, that is why they play the game. Michigan has been competitive in most of their games this year and almost beat Iowa. I am gonna laugh when Iowa beats OSU down this weekend.

Sorry to hear about the situation. I agree with what Muff said, when I was younger I have had the DRs numb my head with some type of wipe to be able to get fishing hooks out.

I think anywhere around the corn will work. I would get off the field a little bit though if you can find a good trail they come in on. They are probably bedding in the tall grass also. I would bet some are leaving the NW part of the tall grass and entering the SE of the corn field. The wind would be wrong for a NW wind but you can manuever around it. Another place would be check between the two grass fields and find a run that goes from one to the other.

How did your opener go Catrina? I have Kentucky gun opener this coming up weekend in and I am excited.

Prayers are on the way. Hope everything comes out ok.

Congrats Steve, looked like a fun and exciting hunt!

I was over in Kentucky again today to check out another spot. I found a great spot that I am really excited about. I think I have a great chance to shoot a buck. Next weekend is opening weekend of gun season so I will have my ML in hand. I know what you mean by the temps mrs. I decided not to hunt and only to find another spot in the woods because of the warm weather. Good Luck everyone

That first buck is very impressive. How come you were not in the stand watching him?

My brother has it and I played it a couple times. It is really fun and like you said, it is at your own pace. I like the balance ones.

I am hoping someone with more experience with muzzleloaders can help me out. I have had my Omega for about 5 years now. I have it sighted in at 1" high at 100 yards. I have never been in an area where I could shoot farther than that untill now. I shoot 100 grains (2, 777 pyrodex pellets) with a 200 grain TC Shockwave bullet. My question is, How far will the bullet drop from 100-150 and 150-200. I know I will probably not know untill I shoot it but was hoping someone could give me some help with before I get out to the range. Thanks

Sounds like things are rockin out by you Tony! Good luck.

Those are some awesome bucks Tony, good luck.

I am not sure what Airports your are flying to and from but you can check with Southwest Airlines. www.southwest.com I have flown with them in the past and they are always cheaper and I believe the first checked bag there is no fee. Just a thought.

Well I went and bought my Kentucky tag tonight. I am headed there in the morning with a buddy. That means I will be able to hunt with a gun this year, I have not had the chance to hunt with a gun in the last 4 years. Hopefully i will get a crack at a nice one.

That is very cute!

If I had access to the land where I was hunting I would have definitly done a grid search today but since it was over an hour away and not my land. I hardly even remember how to get back to the land. I agree with you she is dead around there somewhere, I still feel confident about the shot and the blood was great blood. I think knowing it was not a terrible shot with pretty good placement keeps me from not being upset as I would if it was a bad shot. The blood trail was weird, she turned often, about every 15-20 yards. Would go half way up the ridge and then back down and then back up and back down. where I lost last blood was when she tunneled under a laid down tree about 3/4 of the way up the ridge. I crawled through the laid down tree following the blood the whole way through and lost it on the other side when it opened up.

Congrats Tony and Elnor! Nice shootin guys. I lost a doe last night, the story is in the bowhunting room.

I will start out by saying my girlfriend bought a hunt for us at a dinner auction. It was on a guys 800 acre farm. Just a little weekend get away for both of us. Sunday night I had a doe and button buck come running in and stop. I thought something might be pushing her so I waited and a little spike came right behind them. The doe offered me a 20 yard quartering away shot. Perfect. I drew back and let the arrow fly. I watched the arrow enter in the middle of the front shoulder. She ran out into the field and circled back into the woods. She stopped in the woods about 48 (i ranged her) yards from my tree and stood. I got my binocs out of my bag and watched her. I could see the exit hole which was on the front edge of the shoulder. I could see the fur soaked with blood. She was about to lay down and the spike started pushing her again all over. I waited for an hour after I shot to get on the trail. I had GREAT bright red blood with bubbles. (lung blood) I followed it for about 250 yards before the blood just stopped. She was going straight up hill which I thought a deer that is hurt bad does not go up hill but at the same time she ran through every bush and tree in her way, even crawling under a bushy tree that wasn't 2 ft off the ground. I eventually lost blood and could not find another drop. Shot her at 6, started trailing at 7 and stopped at 9:30. It sucks, I feel bad but I can say I put everything I had into finding that deer. I think that spike pushing her hurt me also.

Blake Shelton is the only one or thing that I follow on there. I do not use it as a social thing either

It might not be time yet for them to start activley scraping and rubbing. I have a buddy who hunted western kentucky last weekend and seen bucks still bachelored up. I say give it a week or two and it will probably be like what your used to.
